Bob and George is a sprite-based webcomic which parodies the fictional universe of Mega Man. It is written by David Anez, a physics instructor who lives in the American Midwest. The comic first appeared on April 1, 2000 and has been updated daily with very few missed comics. As of June 2007 there have only been approximately 29 days without a comic.

Initially conceived as a hand-drawn comic, Bob and George became a sprite comic first as filler, and then permanently after two failed attempts at the hand-drawn format.

Most Bob and George strips are still images. The initial strips were mostly done in GIF format (occasionally using JPEG for more graphic-intensive comics) before converting to PNG in May 2004. In addition, occasional comics are animated using either animated GIFs or Macromedia Flash. Some of the Flash comics have the characters speaking, voiced by Anez and others (often forum members). Animated comics are generally used for the annual week-long anniversary parties (usually culminating in a brief flash comic that recaps the events of the past year in a matter of seconds), for especially climactic scenes, and for the Cataclysm videos.

The comic's plot is mostly made up of story arcs of varying lengths. Amongst past story arcs there have been retellings of various Mega Man games which often play out quite differently than the originals, as well as battles against powerful foes. In addition, many of the story arcs involve either time travel or dimensional travel.

I humbly request three to six players with available character slots to contact me via a PM or in-game email (Recursion.ZippyTheSquirrel) to illustrate a player-created Exile Gang in this story thread.

After I acquire said persons and take a few screenshots, I will post them here, where any willing and talented artist may or may not offer help to enhance the pictures. I know that there is a limit to the color of the tatoos in-game, so some of the characters will have to have their faces re-done by an artist.

Any and all help is much appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

Yes, because a thread generalized for just "rate my sig" options is too bland for me.

Show off your artistic creativity and transform your Signature (or your own Character in a bigger picture) into an Unlimit's!

I can start off with this really simple one:

HAVE YE GOT TALES OF HUMOUROUS BATTLES OF WIT OR PHYSICAL ENDURANCE? TELL THEM HERE!

Clearly, my bluepill loadout is much more 1337 than Pizzy's.

Tiberium is a new tactical first-person shooter video game title set in the Command & Conquer universe, currently under development at EA Los Angeles (EALA), the studio behind the Medal of Honor series and Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. The game features squad-based gameplay mechanics. It has been confirmed by a source with inside knowledge of EALA that the project is a "Renegade/Battlefield-style FPS". Tiberium was initially revealed when shots of the January 2008 issue of Game Informer was leaked, but was officially announced by EA just a day after. Prior to the announcement, the game had been in production for two years.

In the first previews of the game by GameSpot and IGN, it was confirmed Tiberium uses a game engine based on Unreal Engine 3.

On January 18, 2008, a trailer of Tiberium was released on GameTrailers with a message of more to come on January 25.

Eleven years after the Third Tiberium War, in 2058, a wasteland covers what was once the Mediterranean Sea. The player takes the role of Ricardo Vega (main character of the novel), a GDI field commander recently pulled out of retirement, who is exploring the single complete Scrin Threshold Tower called "Tower Omega" in this area. The tower is believed to be a relic from the Third Tiberium War but turns out to be the base of another Scrin invasion.

Unlike most other first-person shooter video games, it has been revealed that the player will only carry one weapon which can be changed to do different things. In the Interview with the person in charge of this project, it has been shown that the gun can be changed to have anti air,anti infantry and anti tank capabilities. The weapon is called the GD-10. It has four modes. The Mag-Rail mode is a rail gun carbine and it is used for taking out infantry. The grenade launcher mod shoots out grenades. Best used for taking out large squads. The player can also take out the grenades and use them as regular grenades. The energy cannon is like a mini Ion Cannon and is used to blast things apart and is a sniper weapon. It overheats with use. The MLS (Multi-Launch System) is good for taking out air units. The player can target up to four enemies and the MLS will shoot a missile that splinters to take out each target. There will be no weapon Heads-up display. Instead, the player has a hologram on their weapon to count the ammo.

I owned that Unlimit. Oh yes, yes I did. With the Effectuator as moral support, of course.

Uh....yeah, support.

And there's our prize, ladies and gentlemen! She got out okay.

Now you cookie crumbs stop bothering us. You...owe us.

We cannot simply allow the Machines to walk all over us like that and get away with it.

Oh, no, no we cannot.  The best defense is a good offense. The best offense is a good a*** kicking.

     This time, we won't bend so easily. You Machinists think you're so tight-fit, attacking a solitary target. How's about you fight us on OUR terms, spread out across the City? I saw how easily distracted you were when there were two targets instead of one.

I'm putting out this message to rally support. If we can get enough comrades to assist, we can do this as early as Sunday the 27th. Or perhaps Monday, to ensure we get enough soldiers. However, our retribution should remain swift and brutal, the kind of attack that the slowly-calculating Machines cannot fathom.

Contact me within the Matrix, and we'll put together a plan that the one-track minds of the Machines can't possibly follow.  You have my number, da?

To whom it's concerned,

I don't know what you want, but you don't scare me!

This is also a query to others: Have you received the same message as I have? If you have, you know what I'm talking about.

I know I do.

Do you?

Beware.
