JEFBOT.125_Pop Corn

Knowing that this strip will be some people’s first exposure to JEFbot, completely out of context, makes me snicker quietly to myself.

    Now that I’m able to catch my breath, this is a brilliant strip! The expressions in panel 2 are priceless, especially Cornfathers because it does resemble how most babies look when entering into the world! (only they are usually covered in vernix and some blood, NOT BUTTER. :P )

    My overactive imagination has me playing out this strip with sound. That would be interesting.. actually putting together a strip, and having a sound .wav or mp3 coinciding with a future (or past) strip, sound effects and all. (How you don’t have a deal on a t.v. show based on this amazing strip of yours, whether it be live action or animated is beyond me.) Yet another strip to tickle the funny bone, kudos!

    thanks for the great comment, Spanky! you know, i’m pretty good at Adobe Flash, and have thought about animating a JEFbot strip just for fun with movement, sound, etc. it’s just finding the time to get it all done! if i do get some animation or a live action short together, you guys will be the first to know. :)

  3. Shan says:

    Oh my god.
    This is hilarious!
    I LOVE the rubber glove he’s wearing. Seems to be kinda pointless after he lands in the butter though. :)

  4. shootzee says:

    true that, Shan. at that point, jefbot pretty much needs a latex glove for his whole body. :)

  5. jAnonymous says:

    Funny! Totally different look to the strip, but I love it! :-)

  6. shootzee says:

    yeah, i went a bit more comic booky rather than cartoony in that first panel to give it a more urgent feel. glad you liked it, janonymous!

  7. Stan Yan says:

    I love the perspective in the first panel, Jeff!

  8. shootzee says:

    thanks, Stan! appreciate that, especially coming from you, the king of multiple perspectives. :)

  9. shootzee says:

    but butter’s a better visual. :)

  10. Shana says:

    Love it!

  11. Sonitan says:

    XD
    “Congratulations. Now let us never speak of this again.”

    Cant… breath… ROFL.

    *sigh* Ah, that was a winner. Poor Michael. Poor Civic. And poor Jef, you got one NASTY mess to clean up in front of you. I can’t stop laughing! My boss is gonna call the guys in white for me today XD

  12. shootzee says:

    ha! glad you dug it, Sonitan! and watch out for those guys in white, they’re definitely not as cool as the men in black. ;)

  13. Oh My Gawd, bot! This was hysterical! The first panel really made me go, “Is bot delivering a baby?” The pay off in the second panel had me in awe. Fantastic strip, man! Oh, and I’m never getting in your car again. ;)

  14. shootzee says:

    that’s probably a good idea, Michael. i don’t think we have enough butter.

  15. funnyshaffer says:

    OUTSTANDING!!! I’m still laughing…. this weeks strip is one of my favorites! Instant classic…. I LOVE the 2nd frame, I can feel the motion!!! Excellent Jefbot!

  16. shootzee says:

    heheh. glad you liked it so much, funnyshaffer! i think this one might be one of my favs, too.

  17. eleventeen says:

    Abject Terror in jefbot’s eyes… so good. This is one where I noticed the name of the strip before the art and envisioned it. Amazing work.

  18. shootzee says:

    so was it anything like you envisioned, eleventeen?

  19. Rachel M. says:

    Loving the strip…. traumatized, but loving it :)

  20. shootzee says:

    as long as there’s love mixed in with that trauma, i feel my work has been accomplished, Rachel. ;)

  21. Skreyola says:

    That’ll teach him to try to make off with your car. hehehe

  22. shootzee says:

    heheh. true, but now jefbot has a car that’s gonna smell like curdled butter for a long time, Skreyola. :)

  23. Lor says:

    The antics! The Corn Father looks so cute being birthed and Jefbot so scared, of being squished. Those two are always having fun, even when they aren’t;)

  24. shootzee says:

    it’s totally true that they’re “having fun, even when they aren’t,” Lor! wait. i think.

  25. Foxmouse says:

    That was fantastic! Great work as always. :D

  26. shootzee says:

    well, thank you, Foxmouse!

  27. DaughterJudy says:

    Awesomeness. Like hilarious. Too much butter.

  28. shootzee says:

    ’tis true, DaughterJudy – if it wasn’t apparent before, we now know there can be such a thing as “too much butter.” :)

  29. reynard61 says:

    Mmmmmm. Corn with butter… Oh, wait… *rips face off while trying to claw the image out of my mind’s eye*

    BTW: I don’t have a car. (Can’t afford it.) My mom has a Corolla, which is what I have to fold myself into and out of.

  30. shootzee says:

    i used to have a corolla before the civic, reynard61! loved that car too, but it was even tinier, so i understand your pain.

  31. John K says:

    I’m never eating butter again!

  32. shootzee says:

    there’s always margarine, John. ;)

  33. alecho says:

    hahahaha, oh my god! this strip is too funny! buttericious!

  34. shootzee says:

    thanks, alecho! glad you like buttericious humor!

  35. JefbotFan#300 says:

    MY EYES. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. GET IT OFF MY FACE. I NEED INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH BLEACH TO GET THIS HORROR OFF MY EYES. HAND ME A GUN. I NEED TO BLOW MY BRAINS OUT.

    lol…a great strip…im shocked and awed. now for a bottle of vodka to forget this.

  36. shootzee says:

    sorry bout that, JF3! but i have an extra bottle of vodka if you need it. :)

  37. d.lio says:

    Everything is better with butter! Awesome strip!

  38. shootzee says:

    thanks, d.lio! love your current M-O avatar, btw. was one of my favorite things about WALL•E!

  39. Eptha says:

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I never thought I’d live to see a car give birth…but alas it has happened.

    Great expression of terror in the second strip Bot. And I can just hear the shame and chagrin in your voice in the last panel.

  40. shootzee says:

    and giving birth to the Cornfather was no easy task for that car, let me tell ya, Eptha. without an epidural, even! ;)

  41. nicodemus says:

    HAHAHAHA!!!!XD amazing, totally brilliant!

  42. shootzee says:

    thanks, nicodemus! i knew some people were going to like this strip and others would be disgusted. glad you’re on the “liked it” side!

  43. Takla says:

    I love the way the rubber gloves are drawn and I have no idea. If I had a poster of that first panel without the text, it would go up on my wall immediately.

  44. shootzee says:

    awww, thanks, Takia! way to “butter” me up! *groan* sorry, had to. a poster might be kind of expensive, but would a computer wallpaper do?

  45. Natalie says:

    Jeff! I love this one!!! xDDD My ribs hurtz!! I started cracking up after I saw the first panel xDDDD

  46. Zach Light says:

    Must not…pfft….laugh….PAHAHHAHAHAH

  47. Dahrlink. says:

    Hee.

    This makes me think of every single time I’ve moved a gigantic tarp. Oy.

  48. Blake says:

    No! But… The jaws… I have them… I WAS GONNA GET TO CUT!

  49. DressesAreStupid says:
