Squad 42
on January 27, 2015 at 12:01 amHey, look, it’s members of Squad 42, so named after the onscreen name of my friend who I drew as the squad’s leader, Picard42. Squad 42’s full of #wiigii! people. Additionally, hey, it’s the Power Booster Rod again. No, I don’t think I knew it was going to be important yet.
Oh, right, and WORLD’S WORST is bolded in that middle panel. Pic, Perc, myself, and others did some purposefully bad/funny Transformers stories back then under the “World’s Worst Fanfic” banner. They were mostly gay jokes.
I wasn’t sure that was the Power Booster Rod, honestly. It could just have been a stick.
The Rod of Power!! Burn it now! It’ll solve SOOO many problems!!
Yeah, uh, not such a good idea. It’s kind of important, and not only in a bad way…
I’ve read It’s Walky several times over the past few years.
I honestly have no recollection of this strip at all.
Also, is ‘Prove your faith, brethren’ supposed to be particularly funny, or am I missing something? (Mostly intrigued by how it fits into the evolution of Willis’s beliefs, truth be told…)
The Alien henchmen are sort of a Power Booster Rod cult. The joke was referenced every time the tree branch appeared.

I thought the power booster rod was at SEMME headquarters, where it had been since Sal recovered it in Florida.
Probably just a continuity error. Not surprising, seeing as these strips are pretty dang old
All I know is that Cheetor likes pie.
“The aliens must be stopped… no matter the cost.”
“Not now.”
