Clearly, Maxx and co. have never played Metal Gear.
This comic seemed funny to me when I first came up with the script, but after making it I realized that it made less sense than originally considered, and revised it a little bit. Hopefully the end result makes sense.

LOL
Solid Tinkerer from metal goblin solid π
Oh, goody, Nigel’s back. p.s. That actually wasn’t 100% sarcasm. That was about 42.893% sarcasm.
believingk?
The Goblin tinkerer has a German accent, some people think it’s a reference to the medic in Team fortress 2
*samdalf
Obviously it is Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid!
Oh yeah I was only 9 when I played my first MGS game
So how did the tinkerer unbind himself?
Obviously he used his super-special-tinkerer-unbinding-powers
What happens off-screen, stays off screen.
/unbind all
The only cheat code of tf2!!
Tell everyone π
Had to goggle pedantic after reading this.
Can you also Google the word “goggle” on top of that?
Now, I have to look up the word pedantic!
XD Nice, Maxx…also, gotta love the Snake box idea π
What’s the Tinkerer going to do when he realizes going right is just a dead end? In case anyone forgot, Aley completely coated the area with 65 layers of snow back there.
No wait, That was Maxx and Cyril. I got confused due to Aley normally being the destructive one.
It would actually still be a dead end, because in the comic just after the avalanche, Cryil was stuck in east side of the tunnel. (lol) So really, all that Aley did, was bween open a small spot that was covering open a huge cave system.
Someone make a parody of My Dick in a Box and make it My Goblin in a Box. Now. Do it now.
Never heard of it. Sounds wierd.
Snl.
Definition of pedantic
narrowly, stodgily, and often ostentatiously learned
List of words people NOW have to look up:
Narrowly,
Sodgidly,
Ostentatiously.
Hurray!
Airholes in boxes seem to be the bane of wizards on every world. Doesn’t matter if its a 2d world or a round one on 4 elephants on a turtle…
I belive that’s it’s supposed to be the world on a turtle on an elephant, which stands on another elephant, which stands on another elephant, which stands on another elephant, and so on to the bottom. I have no idea what’s on the bottom, but I pity it because it has an infinite number of elephants on its back. And a turtle. And the entire world.
Get the feeling… Diskworld?
Damn, I love those books.
It’s from an actual religeon’s mythology. Go Google it and find the name. It’s a thing.
Mr Thorbjoern was almost definatly referencing Terry Pratchet, not some obscure religion that you can’t even name.
I see what you did there. Seems like people find the links between my comic and Discworld even when I didn’t intend them… maybe I do it subconsciously.
Metal Gear. π
Well then… Tinkerer just missed his big chance.
Ooooooooh boy
Metal Gear 101. Boxes work as hiding places even in areas where the box does not belong… like in an ice cave.
Ah, video game references. I like it.
I guess that those guys are just too experienced with weird crap to react to it.
Who’s “those guys” and what’s “weird crap”?
I just hope the tinkerer’s box has air holes.
I think there’s a medium-sized airhole on the side
Besides, the bottom isn’t sealed. air could leak through.
Great, now I gotta look up Stodgily and Ostentatiously.
Looking up pedantic now…
Now looking up
ostentatiously… and stodgily…
Reminds me of the time I used a photocopier to sneak through the police station in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
How small was your character if he could fit inside a photocopier?
I guess it depends on the font. π
I didn’t hid in the photocopier I hid behind it and moved it around when nobody was looking at me. I have a screenshot:

I usually don’t like putting links in comments but well you have to see the screenshot.
I did in the end get caught and I was forced to chuck the photocopier. Should have been using a vending machine.
That’s hilarious, I love how forgiving stealth games are. Most people would notice if the photocopier kept moving every time they turned looked away…
Well Deus Ex really isn’t a stealth game it is just part of it, but yes I love how a little creativity breaks a game that is designed around letting you go about stuff the way you want.
The photocopier being bullet proof and indestructible only aided my creativity.
Oh, right.
Heh heh, dat funny.
Ah, boxes.
The last reward for making a new comic sucked so…
JESSE I’LL GIVE YOU A TERA BLADE TURTLE SHELL ARMOR AND A TOASTER IF YOU MAKE THE NEXT COMIC
You should of said Toaster Oven, Would of enticed Jesse more. :p
Eh, my toaster is pretty crummy. But my microwave is worse, it irradiates your food without heating it in any way.
My brother made a charcoal cheese sandwich in the microwave when he was little. Long story short the toaster oven takes 10 minutes to make a grilled cheese sandwich.
Our toaster actually heats up food, just waaay too much. We always put it on the LOWEST setting, and it still browns edges. Our microwave is great though. π
Once put some cheese sauce in a microwave that came out looking and smelling like an old person’s foot.
I have a great toaster and microwave but the microwave time setting is a nightmare if you want to make something by time like say 1:45 when I press one it just starts the microwave by one minute
But you’re microwave lets you cheese in peace.
Wonder if the thinkerer going tobe the same way as cyril?
to end up like Cyril i mean
He just avoided the crew MGS style.
By that I mean: “The goblin tinkerer avoided Maxx’s crew MGS style!”
*Looking up MGS.*
MGS stands for Metal Gear Solid.
LOL hard at the box. Lamda labeled box – Half-Life 3 (un)confirmed.
*uses box-trot taunt*
Works most of the time, every time!
