strip: Reversoduplotron
Credit goes to Brandon on the name of the machine… hahaha…
A reminder– this week is the last week of the new shirt preorder. Get your sizes now, I can’t guarantee your size will be in stock after my order. Frankly, I don’t have enough orders yet to even cover my costs yet. Also, remember, if you want a Hoodie, you gotta order by Sunday, those are preorder only items. Here’s the shirt info page- Rock!

I can only see something awesome happening as a result of this…Reversoduplotrun 9000!
Does the duplo part mean it is made out of those giant lego blocks I used to play with as a kid?

DUPLicate?

Wow, so Bob got mad and said he didn’t want to be in the comic anymore… after so many of the site’s fans buy him a computer… and after he’s been on the comic for years.
What a pussy.

I think it’s great that DJ’s work is as strong as ever, even without Bob.
October 17th, 2005 at 9:14 am
That’s called irony! First DJ organises Bob a computer, then Bob uses the computer to send rude emails to DJ. And I don’t mean rude in a good way either!

I can only sit in a corner, quaking in terror with the thought of what’s going to come out of that machine.. Will we see the evolution of Bible-thumping Bob? Only time (and more likely tomorrow’s strip) will tell.
October 17th, 2005 at 10:06 am
DJ should just kill off the Bob character. That’ll solve things quite nicely.
October 17th, 2005 at 10:49 am
DJ’s final line was the best thing ever to come from that game show of animated triumphs and losses. It lives on in my heart though at the moment I can’t even recall the game show’s title or host anymore.
On a sadder note, no more Bob-character at the request of Bob-person? What a Bob-tastrophe.

Since he asked, we should leave Bob’s name out of it now. But since this is a reverso machine thingie, we can probably name the clone with Bob’s name reversed.
October 17th, 2005 at 11:08 am
Get with the Church of the SubGenius, and have the reverse Bob be Bob Dobbs!
October 17th, 2005 at 11:15 am
Make a Bob clone and have him kill the real Bob. Just like what happened in Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story *plug*
October 17th, 2005 at 11:48 am
The show was called “Press your Luck”, Logan.
And that really sucks what happened with Bob. things are looking good here, though!
October 17th, 2005 at 12:54 pm
Bummer about Bob. Losing a partner in crime is always hard, but having to give up a character?
That’s the rough shit.
October 17th, 2005 at 1:37 pm
Yeah, I agree… Kill off the Bob character… Yirmumah doesn’t need him… The Drama Llama has guns aplenty, no?
October 17th, 2005 at 2:15 pm
can not wait to see this.
October 17th, 2005 at 2:23 pm
Maybe Bob should change his name to Dick. Or maybe the Bizarro Bob that comes out of the machine can be named Dick, and everywhere he goes, people think he is Bob and gives him all sorts of shit, beating the crap out of him, etc.
October 17th, 2005 at 3:13 pm
I was going to take to high ground here and not say anything.. Maybe someone else could take up the call of “beating on Dick” for me.
October 17th, 2005 at 3:30 pm
“Don’t ask how I got it”. So wait - is Dave gay? and was that a subtle shot at Bob?
Nice…
October 17th, 2005 at 3:46 pm
Maybe Dave isn’t the only one who’s been frequenting DJ’s mail”lady”..

I keep waiting for an few ‘episodal’ comics centered around a possible replacement for Bob’s character. (Personally, I think that Bob should stay, but I’m just along for this wild ride that we call Yirmumah.)
Anyway, how about :
1. American Bob ( like American Idol but without the suckage, where 12 contestants are narrowed down to one. The One who will replace Bob.)
2. Guest-star, walk-on roles, (like what Carson and sometimes Letterman would do). One day it’ll be Joan Rivers. The next it’ll be Ron Jeremy. The next it’ll be Wiford Brimley.
3. Bob from The Future. In the year 2050, Bob realizes that he misses the times of Yirmumah and creates a Time Machine out of his 50 year-old Dell computer and a bit of string, (or something more creative). But — this is the catch — he’s really part Bob, part Borg. He’s a Boborg. Or… even better, a Boborgbot…
I’ll stop now.

Resistance is futile.
October 17th, 2005 at 6:36 pm
Jon, I like all three of your ideas. Ok, Coffman get busy on Jon’s ideas.
October 17th, 2005 at 7:41 pm
Henry Rollins makes any comic great.
That’s all I’ll say on that subject
October 17th, 2005 at 7:55 pm
I think the Bob character should be left in with that standard legal disclaimer that they use in movies and stuff. Why eliminate a character because an ex-writer is being a bitch.
The drama llama is working overtime this month.
October 17th, 2005 at 8:12 pm
Bob this, Bob that. Talk about burning bridges… if you want to ensure that Bob never swings by the tiki bar again, I guess this is the way to do it.
October 17th, 2005 at 8:45 pm
I think you should hold open auditions like Rockstar Inxs for a new Bob. Let your fans compete in competition created by you until the last one standing is selected for the position. CrackaKeith could help dispose of the bodies.
October 17th, 2005 at 9:55 pm
Oh, believe you me, Tom. Bob won’t be stopping by our place ever again.
October 17th, 2005 at 10:15 pm
So this is … “Revenge” ???
Call the “new” duplicate Bob, …. Bubba…
October 17th, 2005 at 10:24 pm
The lovely wife kick him out the basement?
She hates him anyways so you must be getting some extra loving for Bob being gone.
October 17th, 2005 at 10:29 pm
Yeah, where does Bob live now since he’s not at your place, DJ?
October 17th, 2005 at 11:08 pm
Hah! Well, no, he surely never lived here!– I don’t really care where he’s holed up now.
October 17th, 2005 at 11:25 pm
I think hes either in a cardboard box under a bridge, or he still has his room at the Impala Inn, or found someone else to spounge off.
October 18th, 2005 at 1:01 am
man fuck bob.
but it hurts to say it.
why are people so fucking stupid?
October 18th, 2005 at 9:43 am
Haha, thanks, Mig. “Press your luck,” indeed!
