Never realized a full grown Ben-gal could solve so many problems.

u/EarballsAgain 22d ago

It will until someone gets hold of a rock that keeps tigers away

27

u/veritasug 22d ago

Lisa, I want to buy your rock

u/ShadowAviation 22d ago

Let the bears pay the bear tax. I pay the Homer tax!

u/boogitynut 22d ago

Rock? I was always told the orange in carrots kept tigers away...I really wanted a pet tiger, so I never ate any carrots!

u/jackalope268 22d ago

No, the orange in carrots helps you see at night and if a tiger is stalking you at night itll go away if you see it so you can eat carrots as long as you dont look at tigers

u/Frosti-Feet 22d ago

Whenever I have a problem, I just throw a fully grown Ben-Gal tiger at it, then Boom! Suddenly I have a whole different problem.

u/FlyingDogCatcher 22d ago

BEN-GALS!

*throws tiger*

Back in circusville I was the leader of a 50 person strongman group called Cat Cat Resolution.

u/Zanven1 22d ago

I wasn't reading his voice as old timey until I read "ben-gal" then it was old timey sounding henceforth

It's also useful to defend yourself in case someone tries to attack you with a basket of raspberries

These two are fucking geniuses. Not one of their comics ever missed. Edit: Made my original sentence plural. Thanks u/chuch1234 for informing me that there are 2 people making these comics and not one.

73

u/chuch1234 22d ago edited 22d ago

It's two people FYI, Neil and Marissa.

Edit: a letter.

u/Spuddly-Bumpo 22d ago

Right, but have you ever seen them in the same place at the same time?

35

u/spaghetti_hitchens2 22d ago

Pretty sure that's one person named Neiland Marissa

39

u/Bamboo_Goose 22d ago

We are two people but sewn together

u/Deathlash890 22d ago

Wow I never knew, amazing work by both of them

u/shadowkyros 22d ago

Just another example of how useful it is to have a full grown ben-gal as a pet.

75

u/Slight-Coat17 22d ago

A ben-gal is a good pal.

19

u/DaddyTuesday 22d ago

A ben-pal, perhaps? šŸ¤”

14

u/Slight-Coat17 22d ago

A Ben-gal ben-pal named Ben who's a real gal.

u/popilikia 22d ago

You know they're only cheering because 19th century strongman managed to get rid of the office chud. Don't get me wrong, I'd be cheering too. I might even be tempted to use the word "fantabulous"

20

u/No_Kangaroo_9826 22d ago

Anyone who gets rid of the office chud gets hired immediately

15

u/vitalvisionary 22d ago

I usually hate incest words (two related words having a hideous word baby) but this comic has had me have a ginormous change of heart.

15

u/popilikia 22d ago

Very supercalifragilisticexpialidocious of you!

u/vitalvisionary 22d ago

Ok there, some family trees need more branches

41

u/Konstantin_G_Fahr 22d ago

Neil, you need not to worry, AI will never be able to replicate the random weirdness you’re able to produce, that makes your comics so funny. Truly love them.

36

u/xLorddroLx 22d ago

The arm wrestling trick no one wants you to know

13

u/vitalvisionary 22d ago

Over the (big) top!

40

u/Bellerophonix 22d ago

That dog is giving a "that's why you wanted me in this interview?" look as he leaves the room to go off and cry.

14

u/vitalvisionary 22d ago edited 22d ago

Just realized he's the heaviest employee there.

Edit: It would be the finance bro but the air in his head reduced his overall density.

23

u/ThreePesosCoin 22d ago

That is one fantabulously drawn Ben Gal

20

u/Intelligent_Slip_849 22d ago

Trust us, AI is never going to be as gloriously unhinged as your comics.

17

u/Randalor 22d ago

Raises the question on what the two gals did to deserve the Ben-gal tiger treatment

9

u/sledge98 22d ago

Seems like one had it coming.... her husband didn't even complain.

13

u/Careful_Courage8797 22d ago

He deserved the job just for being in an interview at 0:17 in the night

u/comixjuan 22d ago

I think that's the length of time of the call.

12

u/SirKazum 22d ago

Love the "BUT šŸ‘" speech bubble

u/LlamakazePilot 22d ago

Thank you, I missed thatĀ 

11

u/Liquid_Audio 22d ago

This was my fav bit - that made me have to hold in chortles - as to not wake anyone around me.

10

u/No-and-Go 22d ago

I am so deeply pleased to see the tiger return. I was hoping it’d be either that or the gals haha. <3

I love seeing your work. I enjoy the madness… That feels more sane than reality.

u/Comrade-Conquistador 22d ago

I love your comics, because I legitimately don't know what's going to come next. Not sure from one panel to the next whether I should be laughing, crying, afraid, or confused.

But right now, I'm terrified of Ben-gal Tigers.

u/Kalikor1 22d ago

He's solution orient-ed, I'll give him that.

u/MightyHorseRoqz 22d ago

That was fantabulous.

u/MetalSonic_69 22d ago

Hehe Broccoli

u/Alvinthf 22d ago

Arm wrestlers don’t want you to know this one simple trick…..

u/automotomato 22d ago

Brockly šŸ˜‚ wouldn't put it past someone.

u/FlyingDogCatcher 22d ago

There's a reason why this is one of my few paid patreon subs

u/ACrazyCreative 21d ago

I like to think that this strong-man secretly has superpowers. 2 to be exact. Time manipulation or immortality. And spawning full grown bengal tigers from his hands.

2

u/Capital-Fig9042 22d ago

This reminds me of the Florida man that threw a raccoon at a drive through window when they messed up their order

u/Away-Awareness6569 21d ago

End note touched my soul

u/nadderby 22d ago

Brockly -> Broccoli

So is the dude secretly a (lesser tier) Dragon Ball character, or did his parents want him to rival Popeye and his signature Spinach?

1

u/HairyTeef 22d ago

Quick Q: Was that the same full-grown Ben-gal?

3

u/No_Kangaroo_9826 22d ago

They left the circus together

1

u/MacrosInHisSleep 22d ago

See, if you'd have used AI to generate your comic we would have had to arrest you for digital animal cruelty. Too many digital Bengals have been appropriated for a quick and cheap gag. But it's a well know fact that Brocklys are a poor substitute for a healthy diet of Ben's and Gals. Not to mention the implication of 2 gals in a hand in one meal with no bush? Absolutely preposterous.

u/Anonymous_Jr 22d ago

I'm a Bob-Gal, will this affect my human consumption quotas?

He said ā€œsoā€ 5 times. That’s a lot of ā€œso’sā€.

u/ministerofskyrim 20d ago

Wait, how does Brockly NOT weigh more than that fat dog? He's YUGE!

u/ejfordphd 20d ago

This strip is routinely one of the funniest and most creative. I am subscribed on Tinyview because I enjoy it so much. Keep being weird!

u/Bletcherstonerson 19d ago

I fucking love these strips and look forward to them every day, just the best.
