I would imagine the [SPOILER ALERT]image of Peach and Bowser humping[/SPOILER ALERT] at the end is pretty NSFW, if at least non-graphical.

I totally disagree. There's only so much you can do with sprites, and what Brian did was make the comic more cleverly written than just “Fighter likes swords & Black Mage stabs”. Yes, they're still quite one-dimensional, but that's the whole point -the ones saving the world are the least capable to do so.

I would say the fact that it got wordier was for the best. Brian's strength has always been his writing, which has become marvelous with the years. Case in point, the Dragoon saga, which is just hilarious.

You should definitely check his other comic, Atomic Robo, and his book, Nuklear Age, which has some pacing problems similar to the beginning of 8-bit, but which is very rewarding if you stay through the end.

I'm kind of sad you chose one of the first comics to link to the sword-chucks. Brian's writing has improved a lot since 2001, and the Kary arc (in which the sword-chucks make their definitive appearance) is one of the highlights of the comic.

All in all, I love 8-bit Theater.

Actually, the gender neutral pronoun in this case would be it.

"Soy una mezcla de lanzador de hechizos y luchador cuerpo a cuerpo."

I'm a mix of a spellcaster and a hand-to-hand fighter.

Hope that helps.

Dojo update: Smash Ball 101

They won't bring back everything, but that's not the reason for the lack of information. The fact is that the delay is forcing Sakurai to stretch all of the content that is not unlockable. I'm pretty sure that you will see a ton of characters after the game comes out.

Now, that's interesting.

Any particular evidence for that one?

Metal Gear Solid 4 stays at the skirts of of the valley, though not enough to alienate me.

I would say Final Fantasy XIII, but, quite frankly, I hate the series after all the rampant sequelitis the Square side of Square-Enix is suffering. I have to give them the credit of having models realistic enough that do not look like ragdolls (apart from the bunch of leather belts and sometimes poofy hairdos).

This is why I hate it when people complain that the only true awesome graphics are either on computers or the PS3 and XBOX 360. It doesn't amount to much if the models do not look balanced enough to not creep me out.
