roundhoward: Elevator Emergency (The Miracle of Life)

October 23, 2008

Welcome to roundhoward, the nocturnal emission of entertainment, news and stuff. To kick start this bad boy, please enjoy the debut of the site’s titular (heh) comic strip, roundhoward.

The strip was not scanned this round, as I do not have a scanner at the moment. We’ll get that fixed toot sweet. In the meanwhile, enjoy the accompanying script to read the dialogue.

Elevator Emergency (The Miracle of Life)

Panel 1.
roundhoward and his pal Egon on an elevator on their way to a party. roundhoward looks ill, while Egon is all smiles and thumb’s up.

ROUND: “I’m nervous man”
EGON: “Nah dude, it’s cool.”
ROUND: “But I got the butt bumps!”

Panel 2.
roundhoward’s having problems. He leans against the wall and clutches his tummy. Egon’s thumb’s up has turned into a thumb’s down as the gravity of the situation sets in.

EGON: “Uh…”
ROUND: “Oh god, I’m almost at 100%”
ROUND: “WTF do I do??”

Panel 3.
roundhoward’s got both hands on his poop filled belly. He’s heaving. Egon, now panic-striken, backs away as far as he possibly can to brace himself for impact.

EGON: “OK, PLEASE don’t poop on the elevator!”
ROUND: “Huh, Huh, Huh”
EGON: “NO”

Panel 4.
Close up on roundhoward, hands in the air, terror on his face, the fires of hell brimming from his unseen lower regions.

ROUND: “HUNDRED!!!”

Panel 5.
The aftermath. A steaming hot poopie on the elevator floor. Ashamed, roundhoward clutches his face and turns away from Egon. Egon dumbfoundedly stares at the newborn hunk of crap. Silence has filled the elevator in the wake of the incident.

Panel 6.
roundhoward remains in self-imposed exile on the far wall of the elevator. Egon, a true friend, decides to make lemonade out of lemons — or, in this case, out of poop.

EGON: “Congratulations!”
EGON: “It’s a boy!”
