For CC 480 you are to follow the essential rhythm of the Beastie Boys.  Their formula is described pretty well in this improv wiki page:

http://wiki.improvresourcecenter.com/index.php?title=Beastie_Boys_Rap

(Note: If that isn't clear enough, you can give "Fight for Your Right to Party" a listen to refresh your memory.)

In each panel, the character on the left starts the rhyme and the one on the right finishes it.  One panel can break this rule if neither character speaks.  All lyrics must be original and not part of a published Beastie Boys song.

One more thing: the monkey character must make an appearance, in space helmet or without.  But you are prohibited from using the word "brass".

Bonus points for using the monkey in exactly one frame, if it still winds up making sense or being funny in some way.

Convention be damned--no judging deadline announcement.

(Especially because I'd forget, as I can't even remember my password on this site without copying and pasting it out of the registration email.)

And the results are:

** The "Why Don't You Fucking Come To Texas and Say It To My Face" trophy goes to RandomComicLayoutGuy, for mocking my contest.  (See the fine print on the engraving for the address.  Don't mind the "tresspassers will be shot" signs.)

** The "Probably Old Enough To Own A Beastie Boys Album, or At Least Have Access To Google" award goes to mandingo -- for riffing off some lyric to "Fight for Your Right to Party" besides the title.

But the hands-down winner in my book:

+++ Z Man Zilla +++

...for making not just ONE but TWO two literary allusions (neither of which were to Juggs magazine!!)  Meeting the bonus requirement is just gravy at that point.

AND as the lightning-fast first responder, he also receives a certificate for "Premature e-Comic-ation".  (Copies of which will be posted to all of his female friends' walls on Facebook.)

Congratulations!

Sorry.  Didn't realize you're a sensitive little bitch

As an openly sensitive bitch, I beggingly apologize to RandomComicLayoutGuy if my sad attempt at humor was misconstrued (whilst trying to invent funny awards)!

Let me give some context.  I have recently relocated to Texas.  As a self-proclaimed intellectual with no interest in firearms...I am both amused and frightened at how ridiculously well-armed my neighbors are.  You'd not believe how many guns these people have; they collect 'em like web developers collect Hentai DVDs!  I don't do either murder or Anime (yet), but nowadays most of the people I know excel at one or the other.  Or both, weird state.

Anyhow, I thought in making up random amusing awards, I'd throw in a tongue-in-cheek joke.  Thought it was fair play to direct one of those at someone who openly dissed (and disregarded) my contest rules.  All in good fun, you'd think?  It's a comic site!  But sadly, I hath offended, my jokedar isn't as good as I thought.  :-/

I'm so... so... so... sorry.  I grovel at your feet with my heart in my hands, urging you to re-read my statement.  Close your eyes, and for a moment; and rethink the conversation as I might see it.

In retrospect, I notice clearly where I went wrong.  Sadly I have no time machine, but if I did I know what I'd go back and do.  I'd instead put a colon-dash-right-parenthesis or a semicolon-dash-capital-p after the sentence I uttered.  Perhaps this emotional tragedy could have been sidestepped, if only my ability to practice science exceeded my years of deep meditation on how to be the very embodiment of a little bitch!!  :(

(Note: If letters on my keyboard are malfunctioning, it's because of my tears at having been misinterpreted. I beg your forgiveness!  As well as the forgiveness of all the Indigo children, blessed be.)

...on the other hand, if you got my joke all along, and are just trolling:

GO FUCK YOURSELF RCLG, AND I'LL SEE YOU IN MOTHERFUCKING HELL WITH THE (NOT MINE, BUT MY NEIGHBORS') ARMY OF HOMO MONKEYS WEARING BRASS PLATED RAZOR DILDOES!

It's like a Choose Your Own Adventure(TM), sort of.  Except with inter-species rape.

(2nd Note: Dunno where they get these monkeys.  But their understanding of alloys is not terribly advanced.  Like guns, I guess they get them from conventions/expos?)

P-;

...and take it away, away, zmanzilla!

Well my ancestry is originally from Texas and I guess you're not up on Texas humor yet.  Therefore I must apologize, too

As George Orwell once said, "Every time one of my books helps someone win a Stripcreator Comic Competition, I have a thirteen minute orgasm."  Words to live by.

Next contest will be up soon.
