A New Kind of Review


Today, we feature Freeze Ray Frenzy! But I'm going to try a new type of review. Let's see how it works out:

MINIFIGS:

Kranxx: This surly space biker leader is an impressive minifig.
Head: A tentacled horror. Sure to strike fear in any policeman.
Body: An open jacket with the Black Hole Gang patch sewed on. Nicely made.
Legs: A Black Hole Gang belt buckle and sturdy knee pads adorn this section.

Space Policeman: This tough police officer is sure to track down and arrest any space crook!
Head and Helmet: A black visored helmet, black sunglasses, and a mouthpiece.
Body: A suit imprinted with the police badge imprinted on the front.
Legs: Nothing amazing, except that they're printed.

VEHICLES:

Speeder Bike: Kranxx's bike screams, "SPEED!" It looks like he took the biggest engine he could find and put a seat on it. I also like the little readouts panel with the fuel gauge.

Space Police Bike: Eh, nothing super. I think the Space Police Raptor from Squidman's Escape was better. It does have flick -fire missiles, fired from one of those new hand-held missile firers.

OTHERS:

Signs: A stop sign and a traffic light with asteroid bases. They're nice, though I had some trouble with the stop sign sticker. I wish Lego would quit the stickers and just use printed bricks.

I think this is how I'll do these reviews.

Note: Prepare for the "December: Advent Calendar Madness!" event. Coming December, of course.

Strip 20: Goodbye For Now

Well, I guess that's the end of J.B. Webcomics. No more exciting adventures. No more thrilling battles. No more really dumb jokes.

And if you think that, go see a psychiatrist.

We'll keep on going with the strip! What did you think, I was quitting my job*!?

*"Job" as in creating new strips each week.

Strip 19: Boss 1 Ending




So the Elf Emperor was a robot! That explains it!

Explains what, I don't know. But it explains it.

Don't worry. Steve, Bill, and Julius are A-OK. And, in the 3rd page, can you spot Steve sneaking up on the Elf Emperor? It's in the last panel.

Who could the mysterious figure at the end, watching the battle from afar, be? Just wait and see!

Also make sure to visit J.B. Webcomics Soundtrack for the latest tune.

Strip 18: The Thermal Exhaust Port?! Give Me a Break!

KA-ZORP?! They must be running out of good sound effects.

As for the "thermal exhaust port," I've often wondered, "Why would someone building a supposedly invincible superweapon would knowingly leave an exhaust port that just happens, when it is hit by a proton torpedo, sets off a chain reaction and explodes the whole thing?" So I joked on that.

Later this week: A 4-page strip! The startling finale of the first Boss Battle! A J.B. Webcomics epic!

Birthday Pictures

Well, Blogger is working now. So let's get down to business:

The Light Steampunk Cruiser. I love how it turned out.

My custom minifigs. Notice (1) the alien, (2) the steampunk pilot, (3) the horse, and (4) the secret character who is hiding behind the horse. But his kitty has come out! How sweet!
This is the Troll Battle Pack. It goes great with dwarves. It also includes a rat, but he's not in the picture.
This is Click the scarabax beetle, my first Brickmaster set. He's nicely built.

Well, I received some more stuff, but I have no pictures of them. Just use your imagination.

Strip 17: The Battle Begins!

A big fight! A big, BIG fight! This is only the beginning! Two more strips, and the last with 4 pages! And all for your amusement.

Birthday Present Pictures Soon

Sorry. I tried to upload the present pictures, but Blogger didn't want to cooperate. I'll try to get them up soon.

Alert! Alert! More Fun Ahead!

J.B. Webcomics wishes to present you our new Tumblr branch: J.B. Webcomics Soundtrack! This new blog will feature our music for the strip! Already, the first track has been placed, so hurry there now!

Strip 16: The Preparation for the Battle

Weapons Listing:
Johnny Thunder: Pistol
Julius: Chainsaw
Bill: Big Ax
Steven Spielbrick: Harpoon
Me: Giant Laser Gun

So, why didn't I use my brush to just vanish ol' Elf Emperor? It's simple.

YOU CAN'T VANISH BOSS CHARACTERS! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?!

I guess that would be too easy.

And in case you wondered, there will be other bosses, and a final boss! Eventually.

BIRTHDAY!

My birthday was yesterday. And let me tell you:

IT
WAS
GREAT!

Let's see what I got:

My custom Light Steampunk Cruiser set (it also came with an apple, a croissant, a letter, a metal detector, a ruby, and a greenish-yellow gem I added)
The Troll Battle Pack (to go with my Dwarf Battle Pack)
My custom minifigs: Alien (from the Area 51 poster,) Steampunk Boy (for the steampunk cruiser,) a secret character (you'll find out,) and a horse, all from a website called Reasonably Clever and a guy named Christopher Doyle
A subscription to Brickmaster Magazine, and with this issue, Click the scarabax beetle
Two little Worker (or something, you know, the ones with the little bitty cement mixers) sets which came as free gifts; seeing as the Battle pack and my custom stuff came separately, they gave us one in each pack. So we got two.
A cool Steampunk shirt from shirt.woot.com
An Lego online gift certificate
Two Walmart gift cards
Cash
A stick of Juicy Fruit gum (I love Juicy Fruit!!)

Pictures soon!
