Astronaut Training




Astronaut Training

June 18th, 2009

It’s a miracle that there is a comic here because Wes spent most of his week battling a vending machine and Tony had a run-in with the rebel alliance.

By the way, we have a recent post up on the front page dedicated to all of you sexy spambots out there.

  2. oOLNOo says:

    One small step for man, one giant leak for mankind.

  3. Guy says:

    indeed, we need return to the basic concepts

  4. superppl says:

    Maybe their implying that mathematicians suck.

  5. vee says:

    @bachterman- Ah yes I was thinking of idiocracy too.

    But now I have to worry about astronaut ghosts.

  6. Rellik says:

    Wow, I just discovered the hidden comics… I doomed to stay here forever…

  7. Jibb says:

    i find this particularly amusing because i’m reading it from a NASA computer at LaRC. i still want to be an astronaut.

  8. LOL says:

    The middle frame is his O face.

  9. Azzi says:

    You mean APART from the ones that are accessed by clicking just of to the top right of every comic?
    A big Question mark appears ……. Click it.

    And next time, don’t assume you know everything. ;)

  10. QueenB says:

    I’ve noticed the past few days that the links to the hidden comics don’t seem to be working…unless you’ve re-hidden them.
    Just a thought.

  11. Evan says:

    Not to be nitpicky, but bodies don’t decompose in space

  12. cheezits says:

    lol yea there is jibblejack….it looks like you havent found them either

  13. :( says:

    Bring back the hiddens.

  14. Confused says:

    Move along. Nothing to see here. Move along…

  15. My thoughts exactly, until I remembered that Simpsons episode where Homer is selected to go to outer space to connect the common man with space travel.

  16. God says:

    yes…yes you are…if you go to the immediate top right of the comic box(not your screen, just the box), you will find a magical button that will transport your computer moniter to a wonderful land, filled with laughter…

  17. abitdark says:

    razor blades razor blades, get your razor blades. Some brand new, some lightly used, some rusty, and some already bloodied for you!

    …..I think there is some porn in here some where too….. Maybe with razor blades?

  18. DiuDiu says:

    People… still asking… about hidden comics… *head-desk* x 10

  19. Norfrit says:

    Hidden comic is even better than original, imho :)

  20. Badwick says:

    Faulking brilliant, my friend.

  21. sublimesruca says:

    very clever boys! :) oh and i love that god can find the time to answer a fan! hysterical!

  22. Eduardo says:

    good one, but how would the body decompose in a space suit on the moon? unless nasa was sending skeletons to space until then. skeletons that bleed.

    • fishsticks says:

      he naturally has decomposing bacteria in his body and his suit
      even if he didnt, the cosmic glare from the sun would have melted the flesh off his face

  23. Till says:

    Made me laugh hard. May you make a wallpaper from the third picture?

    greetings!

  24. Don R says:

    Brilliant!
    Wait…Is it compulsory to make a joke here?

  25. I know! says:

    Button, Button. Classic Richard Matheson

  26. hidden comic is even more hillarious!

  27. XK140 says:

    heh well least it doesn’t have zombies

  28. fred edison says:

    Should have had a check list. They always use a check list. Recall the astronauts enjoyed skipping around on the Moon, like kids out playing in a field on Earth. Who can blame them in that kind of fantastic and unique environment. Sometimes they became a little too excited. I’m confident the controllers on the blue planet were biting their lips, while droplets of sweat poured down their faces every time an astronaut tripped on a Moon rock and fell, knowing the possible consequences of a torn space suit or a life support apparatus undone. They were only human, after all.
    Maybe the skeleton face doesn’t literally mean decompose, but means the grim reaper has paid them a visit? Whatever. Cool comic.

  29. Kevin says:

    am I the first one to notice that none of the characters have pupils?

  30. Matthew says:

    lol. didnt notice flag thru his foot at first.

  31. Shadow729 says:

    A+ I laughed.

  32. barbanegra says:
