We all know the story of the Grinch, (if you don't: It's a book by Dr. Seuss in which a creature called the Grinch, who hates Christmas, tries to "steal" Christmas from the "Whos" [people] by stealing all the presents and such. In the end he learns his lesson and his heart grows several sizes, I forget how many exactly.)
Anyway, we know that story, now at least. But what if the Grinch never had a change of heart? What if he came back next Christmas, but this time, the Whos were ready for him? You help decide the Grinch's actions as he tries to escape the Whos' deadly traps, get to his cave safely, and maybe nab some presents while he's at it.
Submit stuff for the Grinch to do in bold, the comic will continue with the one with most votes. Ties will be decided more or less randomly.
Comic #1

Woops, forgot the CRUNCH on that last panel. And sorry about the small words.
#2
Tranquilizer darts. (This is more of a syringe, really. wh'ev's. [Pronounced "wevs", short for "whatev's" short for "whatever".])

Hmm... An alternate universe of a Dr. Seuss book... Not what I would have chosen for an interactive webcomic, but ok. And mabe you could put some rymes in there or somthing, to make it more... Seussey?
Anyway, make the Grinch pull out some tranquilizer darts, or better yet, make him bring out Max to help.:smalltongue:

Grinch actions bold plz. About the rhymes... I don't know if I want to make it Dr. Suessy in that way, it's kind of a darker take on the story.

Why did the window fall off like that?

It was supposed to be a visual joke. It's really a painting, it fell off when he slammed the door.

Ok, so i think this here is missing some basic explanations... :smallconfused: lay down to us how this is going to work. Is this the regular MSPA style "post a command" thing? Are the special rules?

The Grinch blows his dog whistle which calls Max, who has started being on steroids ever since pulling his sleigh last year, and he tears the wolf to shreads. There, happy now?!?

1. Yes.
2. Not really.
Thanks for the feedback. I put some explanations in the first post. (That is, after you mentioned it to me, I did.)

I don't want to start an argument, but I apologize for how much my request for bold seems to have offended you. True, I guess it's not that important. You don't have to bold if you really don't want to.
Also, hee hee! That's great. I'm going to add Max on steroids somewhere.

"...probably." He's starting to get used to it.
I would've used Max, but I'd already started when that idea happened. Except now I'm doubting my own memory, because the Max idea was in the same post as the tranquilizer idea. Weird.

Protip: Add the command that was used at the head of the comic, so people know what's up. :smallwink:

Use a tinsel lasso, climb up and steer the presents into each other to make them crash, so they blow up or somthing...
Find Delibird and shoot him.
