I know this isn't time travel, but isn't there still a space time continuum needing to be destroyed by this?

Nah, alternate dimensions give you two different versions of the person in question, so Tav can meet his alternate self no problem.

That being said, the saga is indeed getting interesting, although I did find it a little odd how even though this alternate dimension is very different from the ICCverse, you and Alternate Tavakai still had the same password.

[Tavakai]

If you think about it, alternate universe travel doesn't make sense anyway. There's plenty of alternate universes where the changes are so minor that your alternate selves from there are also traveling to the same place in the same alternate universe you're going to, which means you'll all be occupying the same space when you get there. This will probably kill you instantly.

So yeah, I don't think about the physics too much for these stories, because realistically alternate universe travel probably can't happen.

Anyway Kahi, I explain later what exactly happened to make this one different from the regular universe, so it's not actually that far off.

Alternate universe theory says that there's an alternate universe for every possible choice that everyone can make.

Therefore, there's probably a lot of minor alternate universes where things are basically the same; they just don't get put in fiction as often because that's not as interesting.

Therefore, if you, in your own universe, travel to an alternate universe, this means that a lot of alternate yous in alternate universes will travel to the exact same alternate universe, since you're going to a specific one.

And then when you get there, they'll all get there too, and you'll all die because you can't cram that many people into that little space. You might actually create a black hole, but I don't actually know much about black holes so I'm not sure.

Don't worry, it barely makes sense to me.

But what if they travel to a slightly different alternate universe because of the slightly different universe they came from?

DisForAcqPok 3: Escape Plan

I should have done something better with that lightbulb. Anyway, this is why people don't normally use Author Powers.

Also, side note, I keep forgetting to update the epic; just a reminder that it's on chapter four now, and hopefully I'll remember to consistently update it. Anyway, discuss that there, not here.

[Exon]

Well, at least his plan worked this time.

That not good.
But on the bright side, he'll probably just start shooting it at people instead of using it cleverly to kill them.

[Kahi]

Its funny because Gerlicky doesn't know that the Portal Gun IS technically a Zamor Launcher.

[Justax-Kal]

I missed the last one. I like the narrator guy. I loved the voice he used in my head. Sounded so professional.
Nice how that car got flipped over. I still don't know why the mad shoppers wouldn't want a Portal gun though.

J-K out.

[Tavakai]

@Kahi: Gerlicky didn't know because I didn't really know. You'd only made the first of those Portal gun comics at the time, and I don't even think I completely understood what was going on back then.

RWAM 13: Operation: ContinuityKill

This was the most complex alternate universe storyline I made for RWAM. If you notice around the middle, Larry is in the bar. Ever since Tarry was killed in that disaster, he has been coming there every day. It's really quite sad.

also Simplicity reference. And I know Terton's changed his appearance twenty million times since he looked like that, but I don't care.

[Janaro]

I love Gurky's pose in that ICC portrait from the NukeVerse.

[Justax-Kal]

At least the NGC of that universe might have survived. No mention means we still have hope.
And oh shoot. Makitos everywhere. He's gone from forgotten gag back to omnipotent psycho-god! Never mind, let us have died in the nuke.

J-K out.

Also, next week's comic will be Christmas if I can manage to not pull an Ennar and finish it (No offense to Ennar). Might have to pull a Kahi to get it done, though. Hopefully not.

Shipping and handling.

Lol, nice new comic, Tav.
I've always found these comics interesting, and graphically pleasing.
Now I just need to catch up on the rest of your work.

-V-

[Tavakai]

So, Christmas comic!

It's part of the 2011 Christmas Advent Calendar, so make sure to check those other comics there out too because I reference like half of the ones that came before mine.

You might also want to read and/or catch up on 2008's Halloween saga and Christmas comic, both of which were unfinished up until this comic came around. You don't have to, but it'll help your understanding. I recapped the important details in this comic.

Lucky for me, I did get it done on time. I did the last 120 panels of it in just two days. It's 195 total. I think that makes it my third longest comic or something; the second being the Christmas comic I just linked to, and the first of course being the 564-panel mega guest star comic.

Disregard Forums Acquire Pokemans part 6: How to Catch a Pokemon

Haxoraktor is the nickname for my Haxorus, which isn't part of my team anymore; I used it as my Pokemon-catching slave. No idea where the name came from; it just popped into my head.

[Chath]

Okay, I love Pokemon, and even I don't go around throwing chairs and rocks. No matter my delusions.

I'm glad you made, well, you the crazy one in this comic.

[Exon]

Haxoraktor Is by far the best pokemon I have ever seen. How rare is this new pokemon, and where can I find one?

It would seem like Narrating things is quite the dangerous job.

~Exon

[I-I Am N-n-Not D-Ddude]

Don't rely on it too much, I heard Haxoraktor was banned from competitive play...

[Chuck the Toa of crazyness]

nope. It actually isn't too popular due to low speed and mono typing.

Anyway, i also fail to beleive that one false swipe could fully weaken a pokemon, and politoed does not appeir in the wild.

That aside, great comic! can't wait to see where this ends.

[Darcsyde]

Reminds me of me at age 10.

[Calvirick]

I love how theatrical that comic was. (that christmas one)

And I also noticed that you put my quote on the front page.

I sound like a negative person.

And yes, Darc I'm sure kills santa clauses.

Haxoraktor's level is somewhat high (don't remember exactly, comes up in a later comic), and in fact, Politoed does appear in the wild in BW, it's just incredibly rare (Super Rod). I spent a lot of time looking for one, so I decided to include it here.

Anyway, thanks to all of you!

RWAM 14: ROBOT ROCK

The style of this alternate universe features my PowerPoint vectors and Venom's Acer Kit

ROBOT ROCK was inspired by the Daft Punk song of the same name. He will probably become a recurring character in a later series. Also, although I did draw those backgrounds myself, the first two were copied (as in, I took a screenshot and drew the buildings in it) straight from scenes in 90's Cartoon Network shows. I came up with Robot Rock by myself for the most part, except I looked to Dexter's Laboratory for how exactly to draw robotic limbs and stuff.

[Darcsyde]

Daft Punk reference FTW.

And those BGs totally reminded me of CN. Specifically Ed Edd 'n' Eddy.

[Exon]

I see that the theoretical physics we were discussing came up. Glad we got that out of the way before this comic. The acer kit looked nice in this comic, IMO. Those extra Tavakais are gonna be quite the nuisense/problem later on. I wonder how that is gonna work out. I wonder what item you'll need next to fix the machine...

Disregard Forums Acquire Pokemans part 7: Everybody Loves Surfing

It is interesting to note that the CD in this comic is as much HM03 (or whatever they call Surf these days) as that chair is a Haxorus. It is in fact Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, the greatest game in the history of ever. And it was just shoved down a throat normally used for narration and announcing.

[Guardian Knuckles]

"Stairs If You Fall We Are Not Responsable." Indeed it's the crazy Pokeman trainer who is responsable. I do feel sorry for the green narrator chap.

You really HAVE been playing too much Pokemon.

I used to play them, but then they got repetitive. Unlike this series!

Wild encounters bugged me, and it would take me FOREVER to do anything. I think I'm more on hiatus than I actually quit Pokemon. Plus, I seem to have TERRIBLE choice of Pokemon.

On topic: My favorite part was when you shoved the CD down his throat.

DisForAcqPok 8: The Secret of the Closet

This coincidence is mind-blowing.

You may remember in LLL where there was a portal made from the NGC universe to the ICC universe (I'd link but Maj is down). Well, I made this back in August, didn't tell anyone, and look what happened.

Also, I actually have no idea whether all of those NGC people even like Pokemon. If any of you don't, feel free to screenshot this post, print it out, light it on fire, and feed the ashes to the nearest rare endangered snake. I promise not to set my legal team (AKA Kahi) on you. _{(Though of course he's still free to set himself on you)}
