Hmmm.  Shades of the GOF, only in hot tub form.  Not much in the way of humor, but this has the feeling of a strip that isn't meant to be overtly funny.  I actually kind of liked it.

It's like Greco-Roman wrestling!

I'm with you, metalcat.

Not funny but interesting. They ain't all gotta be funny as long as they're all interesting.

This one actually made me chuckle, unlike recent strips. Just the idea of naked hot tub fighting, and then that there could be a a "best of"... I'm not entirely sure why, but I felt this one brought some funny.

Takes a lot of balls to fight naked.

I thought this was hilarious.  The look of the dude in panel 4, the cat cock and, what really made me laugh, the alt text.

[Toaster]

This really brightened my day. The alt-text pretty much summarizes Ray's enbtire view of life, a view which too few people share. I thought the hot tub fight was happening in Ray's living room, and it goes to show how long I've been reading Ray's adventures in Achewood, that I really wasn't fazed by the prospect of him getting large naked cat-men to fight naked in a hot tub in his living room. Then I saw the DVD logo in the first panel, and realized that Ray is just watching this on TV. In my head, I prefer the original version that my mind concocted. It goes along with the alt-text.

[Doc]

Don't be silly Toaster, Ray doesn't have a hot tub in his living room.
This was obviously filmed in his bathroom and he's finally got around to paying Teodore to put them all on DVD.

The alt-text also made me feel a bit more positive about life.

[Mr Trout]

The alt-text was definitely the funniest part of this strip. I thought it was ok at first, just another strip showing Ray doing something crazy, but then seeing Ray's character distilled into that sentence got a laugh out of me.

What is with the homoerotic tension in Achewood?  I mean, seriously.  It's a reoccurring theme of many a strip.  I mean, ongoing melancholy and non-participatory situations of a queer nature seem to run through out Achewood.  I could... I could write a thesis on what it means.

I think it's just because the strip is written by a dude, and dudes love them some homoeroticism. Look at football, wrestling, hunting, and Gilligan's Island.

Achewood:  the "team mate pats you on the butt" of internet comics.

[Arachno-capitalist]

Dammit chris with the c*ck. get over, chris, get over it with the c*ck already.

I'm hopin' that tomorrow some demi-celeb breaks through the wall....

Speaking of demi-celebs:  I ran into Monte Markham last week.  Er, let me rephrase that, Speaking of has-been demi-celebs.

[side_show]

Mark McKinney was on my flight home a few weeks ago.  He was two rows ahead of me.  That is a big deal for me.  He... his work means a lot to me.  In bagage claim he was just standing there across from me.  I tried not to stare, but I was pretty excited about it.

[wombat]

Smells, why do you mention this? Are you implying that Mark McKinney is a has-been demi-celeb? Put that together with today's disturbing comic and I think I am going to cry.
