077 - pop culture reference

if you watch a lot of television then this comic will make sense to you

it is a reference to a television show called “power rangers”

where people would “range” using their “powers”

TELEVISION!

UPDATE: behold! a terrifying new Frantics comic by ChicoBlue! gaze upon his works ye mighty and despair

    Obviously is the Pink Power Ranger charging his kamehameha on one of the episode where Naruto apears to open the ketchup….. NOT!

    HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGG!!!!!

  3. Fletcher says:

    holy butts that is a lot of comments!

    it was entirely deliberate; i know full well that goku is a saiyan and that power rangers have weird suits and huge animal robots

    i was going for a “hilarious mix-up” gag, but apparently DBZ is the wrong thing to make light of D:

  4. anon says:

    Actually I believe this is an Ultraman reference, who was from the Korean TV show ‘Transformers’. His signature move was the hadouken.

    Honestly, I can’t tell if the OP is joking or not about the ‘power rangers’ though…

  5. anon says:

    nevermind… i somehow missed that there were 50 other comments. (i could only see 2 when i posted)

  17. Glippy says:

    too bad some people who check out this site(and therefore claim to have a sense of humor) don’t get the joke…

    but what the hell

  18. Rohan says:

    It’s a reference to “Constipator Traitor”, where that guy gets time lapses and kills his friends whenever he gets an alimentary blockage.

  19. Anon says:
