| | ShadowGamer | OK, so some idiot posting under a FAKE name did a review of our comic, and he spent the whole time giving us crap because he's not into gaming comics. I don't know why this guy doesn't have anything better to do with his time than hate on perfectly good comics, but I looked through some of the other stuff on his blog and it seems like everything he reviews is 99.9% better than most of the crap out there.
His "name" is Ted David. Here's the link to his blog. Go over there and give him some crap for hating on Powerup.

Okay, I'm sorry I said that. That's going way too far. I take it back. -Posted on May 31, 2008 | | User: Anonymous | | 1 |  "Shadow may be an idiot but he's not a liar."

! -Posted on Apr 12, 2008 | | User: ELO ELP | | | | What I really love about people saying Ted David and the other YWiB bloggers are "elitist pricks" is that they point out the same flaws in the other comics that you're complaining about this one for having. Saying that it's perfectly acceptable for those well-known comics to get away with those problems just because they are well-known is what's really elitist. -Posted on Apr 06, 2008 | | User: Atom Apple | | | | Emzee, I already asked, he said no. Shadow may be an idiot but he's not a liar. -Posted on Apr 06, 2008 | | User: Rowsen | | | MUTED -Posted on Apr 06, 2008 | | User: Skeppio | | 1 | | Wow, you are such a crybaby. He made that review because guess what? Your comic is actually that shit. Ted and the other bloggers may be elitist pricks, but he's right about your comic. It is THE WORST comic on the web. Fuck you Shadow. Fuck you and your cocky self-absorbed mind. Learn to take criticism, you failure. -Posted on Apr 06, 2008 | | User: flapjack1995 | | | | emmzee is wrong. WE MUST BURN THE EVIDENCE. -Posted on Apr 06, 2008 | | User: blindfold | | | lol paranoid ppl
i told you there would be libertarians -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Custard Trout | | | | Man, Ted David doesn't know what he's talking about. You fucking rock, Shadow. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: WanderingVillager | | | Emmzee, there are two problems with that:
1) apparently, early on someone asked the author if this comic was a joke, and the reply was no, so that's what it'd be reasonable for us all to assume, and,
2) regardless, some people actually seem to like it.
While it's possible that someone was lying when it comes to the first point, the second point is enough for me to lose hope in humanity (and still come around to read the comments to see what the chances are of getting that hope back), regardless of what the actual comic is all about - I stopping caring whether this is intentionally bad or not long ago. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Gideon | | 5 | | Well, obviously, that guy was a douche. But did he deserve breaking the fourth wall? -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Emmzee | | | THIS COMIC IS A JOKE.
Seriously. On Facepunch, they found out it started as an in-joke between members of some forum about who could make the worst copy-and-paste gaming comic. One member in particular ran with the idea and hosts it on DrunkDuck.
Don't view this comic; it's intentionally bad. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: WanderingVillager | | 1 | I should point out that the review of Powerup on badwebcomics was posted April 1, and the latter couple of paragraphs of the review clearly seems like an April Fool's. Apparently the "fans" of Powerup, plus its "author", fell for it. Well, I wouldn't expect more of them...
However, there's still no way this comic could possibly be called "perfectly good", or anything close to it... -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Anonymous | | 1 | | OMG this comic makes me want to slit my wrists, strangle a kitten and punt a puppy off of a cliff..for the sake of the world ,STOP! -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Anonymous | | 1 | | Ted David is completely and absolutely right in everything he's said about you. You guys are the left over rats scraping up what they can from what used to be the gaming comics scene, none of your arguments are justified (Yea, ShadowGamer is clearly your real name) and your comic is effortless junk. Ted David is the best thing thats ever happened to you because you're actually getting some views now. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: jauntx | | 1 | reading some of his other posts, I gotta admit, this Ted guy is pretty much a dick.
However that doesn't change the fact that this comic still blows. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Anonymous | | 1 | | Your comic does suck! Aaaargh! >,> -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Megadudex1 | | 1 | | Guy below me is correct. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Leo The cat | | | | guy below me is stpid -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: ultra_iron_maiden | | 5 | | Ted David is clearly jealous of you shadow, just like everyone else who reads your comic. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Hillside_Loafer | | 5 | | It has to feel great to have so few friends that you spend all your time slandering webcomics :) -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: hysellt | | 5 | | Bloggers are people who take themselves waaay to seriously. As if anyone gives a rats crap about their opinion. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: ShadowGamer | | | | Feghoot, The joke isn't that he farted. The joke is that he turned out to be Moobs all along (probably not true irl). The fart is just icing on the smelly cake :) -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Feghoot | | | | I'll admit, however, he was wrong when he said "All webcomics suck" -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Anonymous | | | Oh Christ humorguy is back.
Here to unfunny the comments section once again.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: humorman | | | Broritto?
I'm assuming that's a portmanteau of "brother" and "burrito". If it is, you misspelled the "burrito" half of it.
Also, I'm assuming you've never eaten carne asada before. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Feghoot | | 1 | | Fart jokes? Are you kidding me? Anyone being jealous of you? Damn, just when I thought you couldn't get lower! -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: Knuckles_X | | 5 | WHY does thi TED DAVID MAN filed with HATRED and the WAR WITHIN

I think powerup comics pretty much caused him to self-destruct. that's a victory in my book -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: blindfold | | 5 | | careful ysqure i bet dd has a lot of libertarians -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | | User: ysqure3 | | 5 | | What an unfunny faggot, that Ted David. Ranting about libertarianism like anyone gives a shit, totally dissing on your amazing jokes. What a jerk. What a prune. He'll never survive Powerup's radassitude. -Posted on Apr 05, 2008 | Only registered members may vote. Sign up here!
