Tornado!
New story arc! I personally consider this the most dramatic piece of work I’ve made.
Have fun!

Plans
And we have a segway into the next story arc! While this is the last comic of the current arc, I have decided to stop with the quotes at the end. They are neat, but they were becoming a hassle.
And yes, I had to get one final static electricity joke in. Also, in case it isn’t obvious, the “LALALALA” is coming from Percy. He’d prefer not to know what Jorocks and Holly are doing, even if it’s innocent.
Have fun!

Frizzy
I. Hate. Mirrors. That mirror caused so many redraws… But on the plus side, FRIZZY! Nikki’s hair is based on another real life experience; my little sister and I spent the entire two hour drive home from Grandma’s generating static electricity with blankets one Christmas several years ago. Mom was less than pleased when she tried to comb my sister’s hair.
And in case you didn’t get it, this “power glove” is made from a material that Percy either found or synthesized from Ichabod’s ship, hence his rapid changing of the topic.
Have fun!

Shocking Lessons
Ref: Ba-doom-tsh | Zot
After reading the previous comic, one of my friends made the joke of “power glove”. A minor script edit later, and you see the result. Also, Jorocks is just too fun to look at when he gets electrocuted. Poor guy, that means it’s likely to happen repeatedly.
Also, I had a small cameo over at Louis and Pi’s comic (and Louis was nice enough to plug ths strip!), so you should go see it.
Have fun!

Innocence
Oh Percy… He clearly has no idea what he accidentally implied. And just to be clear, what Percy and Nikki were doing WAS completely innocent. If you’ve never taken a fuzzy blanket and rubbed it in your hair in a dark room, you are missing out on one of life’s simple joys. Warning: If you wear glasses, it’s a good idea to take them off first, as metal conducts electricity. This comic is another that spawned from an actual event.
Have fun!

Fedora Phone
This is one of the first features that I thought of for Spoofy Randomness. I feel a little guilty that it’s taken a year and a haf to introduce Percy’s greatest invention: the fedora phone. And for those of you too young to remember cell phone designs around when I first started inventing SR, the feather acts as an antenna to boost the signal.
Have fun!

Spoofy Madness
Back to the main characters! Going back to 800 pixel wide comics like before; I feel that my text is too cramped with the smaller comics and bigger is better, right?
Have fun!

And the tenth Spoofy Randomness story arc draws to a close! More on that later.
I realized that I had no explanation provided earlier as to why Percy said he was sooty on Monday, yet did not appear sooty. The answer, of course, is that he brushed off the extra soot as to not make a mess of Nikki’s house. His outfit is still a little sooty, just not as noticable.
What Percy did not mention to poor little Megan is that he is dating her sister. Surprise! It also appears that Nikki’s parents had a lot of fun painting their house in various colors.
This story arc should have looked a little familiar, as I based it off of the first Spoofy Randomness story ever written. I also took advantage of being on break and experimented with the possibility of a full-color comic. Unfortunately, while I do like having the comic in color it is a little too time consuming at this point, so future comics return to black-and-white.
Have a happy new year!
