Regarding "Toby"

It has been suggested that the Cheese-Hungry Grunt be named Toby in reference to a Hollywood Halo video. With the link provided by PittofDoom, I watched the video and I gotta say, I can't let that happen. The film was great and funny, but Toby spoke in a normal voice. And when I write jokes with the Cheese-Hungry Grunt in them, I always intend for the reader to imagine that typical squeeky Grunt voice from the Halo games when they read his dialog.

But the readers are as much a part of this project as I am so I'm gonna open it up for discussion. What do YOU think the Cheese-Hungry Grunt should be named. Bill? Gabbey? Dave Foley? And since I believe in being fair, if I get enough suggestions for "Toby" I'll let it be. "Enough" being about 30.

stuntmutt?
I'm guessing this because one of the headlines said something about a comic strip writer being tied to acts of torture.Yada yada yada, then says something about visual puns.Stuntmutt I guess?

Cheese Grunt's name
Should be Wallace... as in Wallace from Wallace and Gromit, he loves all things cheese B-)

he also especially has a soft spot for Wensleydale (type of British cheese)
#66 - budski - 04/06/2008 - 03:17
Nice idea! And great effort too!

name it fred or bob. or yipyip.

i also like the news ticker at the bottom, esp in the first panel. nice touch.

Regarding the Grunt
I don't know about Crackers (or Krackers), but I think Kracken might be a good name. It's kind of a twist on Krackers, and it's ironic because it makes him sound tough.;-)
Also, Halo Lover, get off of these comments. What are you, five years old? You can't request a comic right out of the blue, and you also can't insult someone when they don't bow to your every whim.
Great comic, though, Zzombie! Keep it up!
#63 - Quil - 04/05/2008 - 10:36

"My name is spelled with two t's"

Fixed. I hate it when people misspell my name too. So, sorry about that. I thought I put the two "T"s when I wrote that but I guess I didn't hit the key hard enough the second time. I suppose I need to stop typing faster than I think.

"when i ran my mouse over the comic it says comBUSTable"

ComBUSTable was supposed to run there, but I threw together the UNMASKED comic at the last minute. Sort of my little April Fools gag. I asked Louis to make the change at the last minute so that's my fault. ComBUSTable got bumped to #85 or 86.

"i love the naruto manga."

My daughter does too. I get more than my share of Naruto day in and day out. I gotta say, I don't really get it. But then again, my parents probably didn't "get" StarBlazers or G-Force (Gatchaman).
#51 - ZZoMBiE13 - 04/04/2008 - 16:07
FYI Zzombie the last comic is titled Master Cheif:UNMASKED but when i ran my mouse over the comic it says comBUSTable. was there a mistake in naming it or is that how it is supposed to be? just thought you might want to know.
#50 - Zach - 04/04/2008 - 15:42
Two T's
Thanks for taking my suggestion in consideration. Personally, I think "Krakers" is the best one out there. Other than that, I have only one complaint. My name is spelled with two t's, because my last name is Pitt. Thanks again.
#49 - pittofdoom - 04/04/2008 - 15:38
to whoever said yayap good idea but it can't be because he is dead. he died when the first Halo blew up it says so in "The Flood" by William C. Dietz.
#48 - Zach Scouten - 04/04/2008 - 15:32
And My Vote is......

#34 - Halo lover - 04/04/2008 - 07:14
hmmm...Toby...Crackers...and Yapyap...oh my
IMHO i dont feel the name Toby really fits the lil grunt. I also think that Crackers sounds too much like a pet. What I always pictured the Cheese Grunt as was a sidekick that everyone kicks around or a friend, that nobody really likes. Kind of like "Squeak" in Baseketball. So Im throwing my idea out there as Squeak. It fits his voice and how (in my head) the Chief perceives him. :-D
#33 - mendicantbias00 - 04/04/2008 - 06:55
"Cabbage" sounds good for him.
Scrubs fan?
#32 - ZZoMBiE13 - 04/04/2008 - 05:57
name for a grunt...
I dunno, I think "Cabbage" sounds good for him.

Don't ask why, it just does.
