This won't make perfect sense if you haven't played EarthBound, so I'll ruin it. There's an item called Dragonite (the game predates Pokémon, mind) that, when sprinkled over a character's head, reportedly transforms them into a huge fire-breathing dragon for one turn to deal damage. By the same reasoning, Super Dragonite would...

And that big towering brick man is the Guardian General, a boss in the pyramid of Scaraba. He gives me trouble.

That is a really awesome comic, BP. Will there be a color version?

Funny. I just finished playing through EB for the first time a few days ago and I never actually used a Bag of Dragonite even though Poo is holding a few.

Still, this is quite cute.

How come Ness looks so nervous in the third panel? I would expect Jeff to be the most nervous one even though he's using it.

I never used any, either.

Yes, WarpRattler.

This took looooooooooooooong. Mostly because of accidental data loss. The background behind the Guardian General is made-up... the one that's behind him in the game is really boring, so I made one more like some of the other trippy backgrounds in the game.

Edit to Max: They're all surprised. Regular Dragonite makes you a huge dragon, so they're expecting the biggest, most insanely powerful dragon ever. They're not expecting it to look the way a Yoshi does.

Super Dragon Yellow Yoshi in a tux. Holy sweet awesome. Also, his shoes changed color?
