Art Attack Friday: The Adventures of Dr. McNinja photo

I am a ninja fanatic. In fact, one of my life goals is to have sex in a ninja outfit (either me, the girl or both of us in the outfit, doesn't matter). So it should come as no surprise that the comic I'm featuring today is all about ninjas. The whole concept of Dr. McNinja started up over at Something Awful in 2003.

Q: That's a pretty kooky name, Dr. McNinja. How'd you come up with that?

A: Well, way back in 2003, it was originally just my Something Awful forums name, and it was really close to being Dr. McNuggets. (I had a bit of a thing for them back then. I also like claiming to be a doctor.) But last second before registering, I realized I could kick up the awesome a pretty decent amount by changing the"Nuggets" to "Ninja."/p>

How does one go from a alias to a comic? 

Well, over at Something Awful, there are these uh... drawing fights, I guess is the best way to put it. You draw up a characterization of your user name and then you draw him/her fighting the other people's characters!

OK, enough copying and pasting the about page

The good Doctor has fought with many enemies. From Ronald McDonald, to the disease Paul Bunyan's Disease, pirates, Raptor Bandits-Rupert Murdock's Myspace-and um, Ronald McDonald again . Right now, the story arch is in the middle of Dr. McNinja fighting off the most feared warrior to the ninjas. Oh, and the army of teens who took ninja drugs that turned them into ninjas. Neat.

So check it out. It's really good and ... (oh crap! This doesn't have anything to do with video games! Crap! Ummmmm ... I KNOW!) I'm sure you'll all get a get a kick out of  the name Dr. McNinja gives the pet velociraptor. And if that's not a good enough reason to talk about the comic on a video game blog, then I don't know what is ...

I've been reading this for a few months and It's damn funny to me, but not as in VGcats sense of humour. The art is great

Favorite Quote from the comic: "I Shall call you... YOSHI!!!"

Great webcomic, I have been reading it for a while and it's easily one of my favorites.

Highly Recommended.

Pirates beat ninjas because they have guns. And pirates like watching SpongeBob Squarepants whereas ninjas like watching Naruto, so that's another point in the pirates favor in terms of their television watching preferences.

Sex with a ninja would be fucking amazing. They're swift and strong and could probably do a lot of kinky shit. Without the praying mantis killing there mate thing.

i read that a long time ago...sooo great!

but if you really pretended to have sex as a ninja...you would be in and out before you knew it, so what's the fun in that? =P

This is my favorite webcomic ever and I don't even like ninjas that much. I'm shocked that the guy can update as regularly as he does with art like that.

Yeah, I love McNinja. The greatest webcomic ever. Easily.

And not all Ninjas like Naruto. Some watched the first 60 or so episodes with a Naruto-obsessed friend but got tired of it, and think it started to go downhill after season 3 or 4 and that the incredibly drawn-out battles and plotlines and flashbacks on top of flashbacks get really annoying after a while.

And I like Spongebob.

And Death Note, the only anime I'm watching now.

I love Dr. McNinja. Although it's not really that funny, it's just awesome all the ninja things he does. Chainsaw nunchaku? Yes.
