    Never seen that comic but it's kinda funny. Glad you don't have to wait in lines like that in real life.

    VG Cats makes references to Pokémon games too now and then and I'm sure many other web comics do as well.

    That's a nice one, but it's still not half as funny as Jason's Charizard card saga. Now that was just... yeah. *starts laughing from the memories*

    (I might edit in links to the individual strips later.)

    And yeah, a lot of webcomics have done Pokemon strips. VG Cats, Snafu... heck, it wouldn't surprise me to see an 8-Bit Theater one. But FoxTrot's one of the few syndicated comics that did so multiple times. Good stuff.

    Okay, I haven't been able to find actual images of the strips in question (and believe me, I've tried). There doesn't seem to be the same level of fan-archiving as there is for other comics like Dilbert. But if anyone would like to seek out the Charizard comics, I can give you a starting point: they're part of the Death by Field Trip collection.

    Sorry I couldn't be more help, but there just isn't anything useful on the net, it seems. I'd bet anyone who tried to set up an archive got a nice little letter from the publishers...

    Really?

    Well, thanks anyway.

    Oh, and as for the other comics...the Graveler-sinking-in-water one was the only one I really liked, IMHO.

    The Pokemon-related comics at Penny Arcade are hilarious. There's one with Chimchar: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2007/05/28

    PA has actually made me laugh with the good amount of Pokemon-related strips in recent months. I think before that there was only, what...one?

    ^ One of my personal favorites, just because that seems to be the makeup of the fan base. For fact's sake, I'd be the guy in the middle.
