What a fucking retarded storytime interruptor.

>>84184648
Yeah, it's pretty annoying. Thanks for this op. I've been meaning to read it.

>>84184566
Joe Shuster was raised in america, his family moved from Toronto to Cleveland when he was 9 or 10 years old and he spent pretty much the rest of his life in America as an American citizen.

you might as well claim someone who moved to america from africa when they were 10 and spent the rest of their life here as a normal citizen was REALLY african.

literal cultural appropiation.

>>84184424

Get fucked, Canacucks! USA USA USA

>>84184490
these are zoids.

why did the artist use zoids?

>>84184711
>that american flag riveted into solid metal
...you're telling me the USA can build giant robots but can't make use of paint thinner, a scraper. and some spray paint and a stencil?

>>84184716
No it's a robot that looks like a gorilla. A "guerilla" GET IT. Some two bit anime hardly holds the copyright on that.

>>84184729
>America
>Not being lazy

>>84184484
>we're like Krypton!
No, Canada is just a colder, more degenerate America

>>84184725
>since the early 20th century
I don't even want to think about the headache attempting to take over Canada would create. Nevermind the fact that Canada has some really bad ass troops the Commonwealth wouldn't exactly standby and let that shit happen.

>>84184729
It's more obnoxious and therefore more American that way. USA! USA!

>>84184735
that is literally a zoid traced line for line into the comic and then covered with a slapdash ink job.

the robowolves are also zoids.

>>84184746
get a power sander, equip it with a certain grade of sand paper, spray the paint with a light coating of paint thinner.

make sure you're wearing a rebreather to protect yourself from fumes. You may need an extension cord to reach the object you're stripping.

5 minutes tops.

as opposed to possible damaging the train and opening it up to water damage due to the rivets popping holes in the chassis.

>>84184667

awww, yeah, that's the stuff....

>>84184764
There are designs differences, like for one Zoids chests are not that blocky, but yeah I find it really funny in that in story meant to a metaphor for the Iraq War that at some point in the writing process someone was like "You know what I need in this FUCKING ZOIDS!:

>>84184769
this is such an absurd waste of technology. If you can create a VR simulation that realistic it's easier to just create a Village scenario and use that rather than torture.

this character is stupid as hell, and so by extension is the writer.

>>84184722

Aw, hell yeah, "54'40' or Fight!"

>>84184433
>Best Friends
Don't get ahead of yourself we're neighbors.

>>84184804
okay they're mildly edited zoids. Point is you're taking a premise that's already absurd and pushing it further with robots that look like animals. You'd be better off just making them look like generic scifi robots and look more original in the process and you wouldn't undermine any attempt at a serious tone every time one of the animal robots enters the scene.

>>84184729
>>>84184711
>>that american flag riveted into solid metal
>...you're telling me the USA can build giant robots but can't make use of paint thinner, a scraper. and some spray paint and a stencil?

I'm not a Canadian.

>>84184874
eh "good"

90% of the technological stuff is bluntly plaigerized from multiple sources. I'm seeing videogames, tabletop RPGs, anime, etc. It's pretty decent art, better than a lot of the trash the big two are backing but I take issue with lazy machine design.

>>84184754
If America wanted to take over Canada it would be less of war and Canada becoming a puppet state.

Just starve the big cities of imports.

Also Fallout did US occupying Canada best. Randall Clark was awesome.

>>84184769
Wait if it's all fake and you're only feeling pain, then why would you ever surrender? Your body is fine, they can do whatever the hell they want and you'll be okay. Real torture is scary because they can burn off your nads or poke your eyes out and you'll have to live with that shit the rest of your life.

>>84184806
Sounds like a pretty American thing to do though.

>>84184885
honestly invading canada for water is laughable, we have our own reserves of the stuff and it's not exactly hard to refine seawater into potable water.

Honestly the money spent on giant gorrilla robots would probably be better served on water refineries, plumbing, and bottling facilities.

I'm more annoyed about someone creating a VR torture machine when instead you could've presented VR gaslighting ala #8 and the village which would've been way more entertaining.

>>84184474
>This has only ever been about our water
Subtle as a neon elephant with a cock for a trunk walking through a field of vagina shaped flowers leaking red sap.

>>84184912
All of these are good points. But BKV really wants this to be a clunky Iraq war piece.

Is BKV normally this much of a faggot?

>>84184909
eh the thing about Torture is we usually outsourced that crap to third world hell holes we kept on black books. Why our military ever bothered I don't know, it's a waste of time and money, damaging to morale, and makes us look bad.

It's counter productive. Why bother abusing a VR machine that can create a perfect illusion when you can just present a gaslighting scenario that destroys someone's sense of reality and then have them give you what you want?

it's a really unimaginative and blunt use of a technology that Interrogators would wet themselves over having.

>women are le strong

We already buy most of our oil from Mexico and Canada. Why would water be any different?

>stop bringing common sense into this liberal anti-war, anti-america fantasy comic.

Wow, it took long enough for the butthurt /pol/ yanks to show up. You guys save the shitposting till the end alright?

>>84184893
The USSA also had more justifiable reasons for invading even if they were being assholes. Chinese were seizing alaska and Canadians were actively sabotaging their war effort out of fear of being conquered next.

which lead to them being conquered next.

>>84184957
Hoth storm troopers?

>>84184939
>It's counter productive.

Yeah, see, so many people say this about torture, and it's flat-out wrong.

Although, calling water boarding 'torture' is pretty inflammatory. If you want to see what real torture is like, watch some ISIS videos.

>>84184989
it makes your country look bad, is inhumane and goes against multiple international treaties and basic agreed iupon morality. Nevermind that waterboarding can cause permanent lung damage and has resulted in multiple drowning deaths.

It is bluntly torture, you can torture someone with tickling or sleep production.

It rarely results in useful information and is more useful as a way to punish someone than to get actionable intelligence.

hat brother looks exactly like me

>>84185024
>you can torture someone with tickling or sleep production.

Heh.

Sleep production? Really?

Slow down, binky, your desire to spew your propaganda is making you type so fast you're fucking it all up.

I think they look bad, welcome to aesthetics. Maybe ditch the gorilla arms for guns, I was always fond of battletechs mechs. Feels like the gorilla mechs are trying to straddle some east/west line and aren't enough of either to look good.

whatever. What kind of mechs do you like?

But Zero Dark Thirty was real

>>84186344
While I'm no waterboarding expert you are misunderstanding an important distinction. The purpose isn't to not cause damage. it's to not cause any obviously visible damage. A person with skin flayed to little bits is going to cause more outrage than a person with various internal injuries.

>>84186698
Actually, Waterboarding as a torture is actually pretty clever.

You see it actually causes fucking nothing to the body. It merely causes the body to think it's drowning when in reality it's drowning due to the water and the cutoff of direct breathing.

Go get a damp cloth and put it over your mouth. You can breathe through it fine and you don't take water from the cloth, not much anyway.

Waterboarding is probably the most humane torture in existance because in reality, it's not harming anybody.

>>84186698
Please stop making shit up

CANADA! CANADA! CANADA!

SUCK GOOD FUCKING BEER AND MAPLE SYRUP MURRICA!

I think this has to be the worst and most obvious metaphor for the Iraq conflict I've ever seen.

This comic is fucking awful

So the lady who destroyed North America's only source of clean water is hailed as a hero and Canada instantly wins because instead of being killed by Americans, now they'll all slowly die of thirst? Is that what happened here?

>>84184888
Is BKV is aware that, historically speaking, Canada has also treated its First Nations population incredibly shittily? Somewhat better then the US treated theirs, but still nothing they should be getting any prizes for.

>>84184699
My mother moved here from Africa when she was 12, and I'm telling you, she's REALLY African.

So shut your dumb trap.

This is a really fucking awful comic to be completely honest. I don't even know what it's message is supposed to be other than "REEEE FUCKING AMERICANS"

>>84196430
Yeah, I was actually pretty shocked when I ended discussing the subject with a canadian exchange student. I mean fucking hell, the Residential School system alone, and the fact that took until *1996* for them to shut down the system and close the last schools is kinda appalling.

I'm amazed at how many people didn't get the metaphor in this storytime with them being so blatant. They even plopped in the fact that almost noone in afghanistan knows 911 happened in the first place.
>>84196430

Not even a yank, but this shit honestly looks pretty ridiculous. There are plenty of US comics that do the same, though. It's almost as if you Americans have to do everything in bold strokes. No subtlety or ambiguity allowed.

>>84197801
And to add to that: Yes, the first thing I noticed was how fucking stupid it was that they'd rivet the flag to the train. Dumb shit like that really bothers me in a comic.

Nevermind the fact that Americans would consider damaging their flag like that to be tasteless. I don't even live on the continent, and I know that. Get your shit together, canucks.

>>84197329
Pretty incredible, isn't it.

It's just a typical "THIS NATION INVADES THIS NATION AND PLUCKY CIVVIES HAVE TO FIGHT BACK" story, except the guys doing the invading are the guys usually doing the freedoming.

It's okay, and ultimately its message can be summed up here >>84185278
and is a pretty correct message. It's not even leftist at that point, it's just basic wisdom really. You don't have to politicize everything, something stuff can be about truth without being about whether you're right or left.

>>84184376
>"let's pretend that Canada isn't already America's bitch" the comic

>>84197849
They only consider it tasteless if some other people that they don't politically agree with do it. Otherwise they're willing to do porn with the American flag and have the gall to claim some other people aren't respecting it.

lol what canada fighting? why woulddo that?!? dont you know if you kill your enemies they win??

canadians so hypocritical, so regressive.

So... let's recap.


Canada goes nuts and stages a pre-emptive strike against the United States because they're paranoid syrup sucking cunts. The US, naturally, retaliates and decides to use Canadian resources to support their substantially larger population which is in desperate need of basic supplies like water.

A group of pissed off insurgents who apparently have absolutely no qualms about executing prisoners of war or staging suicide bombing attacks blow up a group of water harvesters, contaminating the only surviving fresh water source in all of North America beyond recovery, guaranteeing their American enemies, and the entire rest of the continent a slow, horrible death from starvation and dehydration.


And Canada is supposed to be the good guys in this story?

Eh, if some dudes killed my parents in a pointless war I'd probably want to destroy their entire country too. Wouldn't you? It's a purely spiteful motivation, but when you've experienced loss of that level, had your whole life taken from you, making yourself feel better is all that really matters. And killing everyone responsible and everyone they ever loved will probably make you feel better.

And that's the point, it seems. Going in to these countries to fix them by killing a whole bunch of people never works, because you're just creating a lot of bitter, angry people utterly hostile to you and any order you attempt to put in place, who will destroy your works out of pure spite.

Terrorists don't operate on logic, generally speaking, even if their enemies are bad guys too.

I was disappointed there wasn't more indiscriminate terrorism in the Red Dawn remake.

I just feel sorry for giving propaganda the benefit of the doubt. My time reading this was wasted. With stuff like this, you keep wondering when the other shoe is going to drop. It just looks so stupid that no person can actually think playing this entire thing straight is a good idea. But yet that's exactly what they do.

And pointing out retarded writing doesn't make one a nazi. In fact, buying into obvious propaganda only for the fact that you like what it has to say kind of makes you a Nazi.

And after all, the Nazis were Islam-loving socialists, so you'll fit right in, Captain Canuck

Desserts have a lack of precipitation. Or in other words the drones are built for perfectly clear weather without a bunch of water everywhere.
This happens with the actual US army drones in the middle east which is probably why they shoved that into the comic.

>it's a "/pol/ think any work of fiction with a political stance is propaganda" episode

Didn't they make you read like, 1984 and Animal Farm back in high school? There's nothing inherently wrong with fiction that's political, even when you don't agree with the politics (and especially since all fiction is implicitly political anyway)
