Soop4h

I didn’t see it (didn’t really want to see it), but I’ve got to feel bad for the cast of the train-wreck that is Fant4stic. Seems like they really enjoyed playing the part of the famed superhero foursome, but the climate around them was just too hostile for it to work.

In one corner, you had a studio that just want to make a movie to retain rights. In another, you had a director who was handcuffed through the entire process. Then there was the audience who was secretly hoping for it to fall apart so those rights would somehow revert to Marvel Studios. The result was the worst comic book box office performance since Ghost Rider 2.

The whole thing was a big joke. A very expensive, not very funny, joke.

Soopah Understands Reddit

This comic is an editorial as much as experiment into the latest trend happening on subreddits such as r/comics and r/webcomics. Comic creators have been adding their comics to the preferred image sharing site, imgur.com, which makes it much more viral-ready. With browser extensions such as RES, readers can see the comic in flow and up/downvote without ever leaving the thread. That’s very powerful.

However, if the link inside the submission is never followed, readers won’t get your bonus, navigate to other strips, nor view your ads. So let’s see what happens. Imgur may serve this comic to more viewers, but let’s see how many come back to Plarko. If you are reading this, then thanks for following your curiosity to reading more “Soopah”.

Soopah Hates Pansy Kids

Batman didn’t become Batman by crying about ice cream and dead mommas. Soopah is doing this kid a huge favor. Ain’t nobody got time for pansy kids.

Soopah’s Friend Hates Ades

Sorry.

I had this written in a completely different way, but it just wasn’t good enough (see bonus below). So I’m testing the waters with a little edginess. I’m sorry if you have been hurt by any ades in your life.

Soopah’s Punchline

When is a punchline not a punchline? When it’s terrible and makes no sense.

Thanks to all you wonderful peeps for dropping in on Tuesday. I hope today’s follow-up is worthy of your return visit.

And for those of you wondering what my Super Bowl pick is…I’m going with guacamole. It is healthier than onion dip and has a nice zing that brings out the greatness in Doritos.

Soopah And Gamma Ray

It’s been too long since Gamma Raymond (or “Gamma Ray” for short) stopped by to see Soopah. Something looks a little different. Must be that new haircut he got or some new shoes. Something.
