knife day is that special time in a boy’s life

I would like a small Copernicus with the knife slightly denting his scalp. Yes. Thank you.
How can you make a joke out of this?!
I lost half a litre of blood last knife day,
I had to go to hospital for a week.
KNIFE DAAAYY! oh the memories… and funerals.
I saw that coming…
OH BOY KNIFE IS ONLY LIKE 1.8 MONTHS AWAY
February 29th
Get your knife helmets
ME AGUSTA CUANDO LLUEVE COCHILLOS!!! Solomente yo quiro decir hola y eso para nada! XD ¿Porque no lo hace uno en español?
OH MY GOD
WHY DID MY BIRTHDAY HAVE TO FALL ON KNIFE DAY
WHY
WHY
WHY
Haha that’s brilliantly absurd. Or absurdly brilliant? Love the unexpectedness of these!
Fletcher has eyebrows for only one slide?
This is nothing, where I’m from we have chainsaw day… those are some fun times.
Oh no, Copernicus got stabbed in the head. Hope that doesn’t cause brain damage. What would be the point of senseless sensibility?
When is Sword History Month?
4th panel would be an awesome t-shirt.
don’t mean to whine, but weren’t we supposed to get extra stuff
There’s a sword, in the top right of the last panel…
Oh yeah… I totally forgot… very good point. Hey Fletcher, where’s our extra stuff?
*whines*
last knife day i got my donger cut off, so i opened a shop for XXS knife helmets
I once attended a funeral on knife day. The empty graves were vary convenient. We really had no idea what to do with all this knives.
… And the bodies.
Panel 4 made my life.
I was relaxing on the beach last knife day. I got lucky it was one of those “suits of armor only” beaches
I love you dude, keep making stuff like this.
Hey,it’s like the dead birds!
I wasn’t aloud outside - I’m not aloud to have sharp things anymore… T~T
@Holzy So you live in Texas, huh?
I see a lot of possible T-shirts in this comic. A LOT!
Last slide, beside fletcher, theres is a butcher’s ax.
Butcher’s AX
In the sixth panel, fletcher is summoning the knives so they can rain down from the heavens upon copernicus and all the earthlings. That is all.
The day when Sword Swallowing is made easy
Just make sure you don’t go anywhere near Queensland! It’s flooding there.
SuperDuperCarrots; Do you make XS helmets for real men?
Da Dude; it’s a cleaver.
don’t worry we don’t hate you ! but if your return won’t be impressive then 24th will be your knife day !
Can it be knife day every day?
( ; _ ;)
If it is knife day in australia… do the knives fall up?
I have a sudden uncontrollable urge to nuke australia in the next week… can I borrow some atomic weapons from somebody? New Zealand, perhaps?
Kayla, ur dumb. :) love you.
Hey don’t disrespect australia. it’s the greatest country there is and i wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.
@Fluffy yeah sure, but I don’t own any proper bombs because I’m a minor, so I am only allowed tactical nukes.
Maybe you could ask Fletcher?
lol is fine, just go and have fun! and we will be missing you!
@Anonymous No.435354.8
Cleaver, or ax. Either / or
Cleaver =/= Knife
i hear they are having flooding down in Aussieland this time of year.
you should do the American thing and LOOT EVERYTHING. money problems solved!
Aww it’s Jan 14 XD
It’ll be back in 10 days <3
Love your comics all too much
What?! First, no Extra Stuff, now this?!! New comics only on the 24th??
I’m so hating you right now!!
(I don’t really mean that… It’s probably the antics withdrawal talking…)
I’ll just go back to trying to save people from the huge flood/landslide that destroyed half of my State (Rio de Janeiro). See you guys around
awww that explaines everything .. i was really disappointed because im that kind of person who’s reaching his favorite comic every friday and every monday without reading anything else just the comic haha… just decided to read it today, i dunno why .. anyways hope that everything gone well …
p.S
ur funny marry me :D
australia doesn’t seem like a nice place to visit now fletch
also, i’m sorry for your loss
I find it interesting that I also go back to Trig class on the 24th after a week off…
This means I have something awsome to look forward to.
MAKE IT AWSOME PLEASE.
=)
I HAVE DEVELOPED AN UNDYING HATRED OF FLETCHER THAT WILL CAUSE ME TO KEEP VISITING THE SITE.
wait what
Now is not a good time to be venturing away from your homeland of Kiwi-a-gogo-land (New Zealand) to visit Kangaroo-a-gogo-land (Australia). The flooding is off-putting and seems like a hazard.
The knives hath come for thy tablet. This pilgrimage to thy Land of Steel (?) is reasonable atonement in the name of the machine. May his sharpness judge you kindly.
FRIG YOU!!!! jk can’t wait till the next comic comes out!
Where in Australia is you going to be? TELL ME NAOW
argggggg, its only the 17th and im going through withdrawls
yay i live in australia!
Where abouts in Aus you going? Our weather is always a bit silly, and there’s floods in the North Eastern states :/
This is a long Knife Day! I’ll get people to the shelter, you get the steel umbrellas.
OMG!! ARE YOU COMING TO AUSTRALIA TO SEE ME :P COME VIST MELBOURNE!! If you read this while in Aus I hope you arn’t anywhere the floods are effecting, and that no one you know is in those areas. Have fun in Aus, its great here, appart from our spaz weather (especially in melbourne, I think the weather is confused, it is supposed to be summer!), but I guess ‘global warming’ or whatever you want to call it is spazing up theweather everywhere.
Anyway - HAVE FUN :D
WELL ITS TOOOOOOO LATE!!!! WHY DID IT UP AND BREAK JUS LIKE DAT. OMG. YOU SHOULD HAVE A BACK UP 1 TOO. HRMMM. I WANT ME FREKIN ANTICS!!!!!!!!!!
hooray for vacations! if it is a vacation trip…anyway get some rest, you deserve it :D
If you think the day of the long knives is bad, Alfie, wait until the night of the long knives… the last one of those was in 1934
Your coming to Australia? AWESOME! Victoria, any chance?
YAY AUSSIE! I live in sydney.
Anyway, on a more related note, how come of all knifes (and swords) to stab copernicus, a butter knife does it? Seriously, aren’t butter knifes are meant to cut butter and stuff? Maybe Copernicus’s head’s just REALLY soft?
Every day shall be knife day until a new comic arrives! *head bleed*
I almost forgot!
congrats on not drawing a yellow background!

and refysnode, don’t get your hopes up, I’ve been living in the same city as him and still haven’t found him, despite how uncommon fletcher is as a first name.
*Looks back in irony at his anonymous tag*
Why, Anonymy? Is there a knife in your name?
No the fact that I just showed where I live.
BFFFFHAHAHAHHAA i love it
… that’s my birthday…
WHEN IS THERE A NEW COMIC COMING?!?!?!
Seruz, it tells you. 24th January.
Dogpup4, SHE tells you.
it’s payday dear mister author of this joyful comic, and I adjure you to satisfy my way-out humor today just the way you used to; but this time, with more butt and less text please
it is the 24th.
my antics needs have not been satisfied.
i am disappoint.
@inspectra living in israel made me think it’s the time differences that made the comics show up a day late for me, but it turns out fletcher uploads the comics on like, 11:59 pm
[Insert sad panda here] @superdupercarrots Fletcher has said a few times in comments that he runs his comic on American time and that’s why he submits them late. I think it is an excuse first designed to fool and capture Sky Whales, that could just be me though.
@Sammy-saur. Stop it Sam. Stop. I know where you live. I know your last name. So stop. Please. Thank you.
*cough* 24th *cough*
I marked my calender and now I am waiting with anticipation.
….Antics-ipation.
B]
where is the new one?
FLETCHERRRRRRRRRRR
I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUU
BUT YOU ARE BREAKING MY HEART HERE
Um, which American time zone? Depending on which one he bases his uploads on, he has between 41 and 221 minutes before the knives get him.
@Melhet:
According to the comments list times, it’s 4:22 PM of the 25th wherever Fletcher is writing comics from…
Officially killed by knives
YOU’RE TEARING ME APART, FLETCHER!
Maybe a drop bear get him… I’m sure that the new comic will be epicness!
@Musician: Drop bears. Definitely drop bears.
That’s the only thing that could explain :(
R.I.P. Fletch
;;A;; still no comic? >:/ consequences will never be the same.
On my watch its the 25th, I am dieing because of a lack of funny. :(
Once more, disappointed. For more disappointment, I shall head to bed with my wife. The only thing that would make this better were that it would be knife day tomorrow, since she has to work and I have the day off….
Perhaps he meant January 24th, 2012! Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnn….
NEED NEW COMIC! BRAIN TURN TO MUSH WHEN NOT LAUGH!!!!!?
I’m pretty sure this comic is a sign that Fletcher didn’t survive Knife Day and his last will and testament was to tell us that a new comic would be coming up, so we wouldn’t have to deal with the grief.
It better be that or he’s going to be eating so many shoes, he’ll become a Payless.
I sure do hope as biscuits he didn’t die, it seems that 11 different comics don’t satisfy me… no… I NEED MOREEE!!!
Maybe chanting his name will work, like convincing a band to do an encore
Fletcher, fletcher,
FLETCH-ER
FLETCH-ER
FLETCH-ER…
This is slightly killing me. Although I rather enjoyed celebrating knife day, we need to move on. Come back and write us more funnies.
FLETCH-ER
FLETCH-ER

FLETCH-ER
FLETCH-ER
FLETCH-ER
Swear to god Australia … if you did anything to Fletcher …
Maybe the comic… is not having a comic…?
:(
This hiatus is a metaphor.
KNIFE DAY = EVERY DAY
Fortunately for Copernicus, the only thing (currently) in his head is a butter knife.
But that probably still hurts.
And how is a dagger a knife?
Knife day is the day before my birthday! I have lots of birthday parties in the hospital.
I was just quoting Fletcher’s lines from this comic to my girlfriend and she was unknowingly saying Copernicus’ lines back to me. She’s never read this one. It was brilliant.
There was an ad for Swiss army knifes
HAH! There was a “Great Deals on Knives” ad!
