The Best Worst Video Game Comic Ever
Justin Villasenor | 6:18 PM on 09.10.2007 24 comments




While recently looking through my picture folders that have become bloated thanks to years on the internet I re-stumbled upon what is, in my opinion, probably the funniest video game based comic of all time, Doom.

Printed back in 96’ it follows the nameless, and batshit insane, space marine as he trudges through the military bases on Phobos that have become overrun by undead and the denizens of hell. The main “plot” shows him working his way up through the firearm toting ranks until he finally acquires the penultimate hegemon of bullet propulsion, the BFG. Because everyone should be forced to experience the terrible one-liners and rampant gore I’ve put all 16 pages below for your collective viewing pleasure.



As the [tiny] warning label up-top attests there are indeed large quantities of gore, however the cover art was probably a pretty good tip off to that.



What is there he can’t fix with his hands? NOTHIN



He’s a 12.0 on the 10.0 scale for unnecessary monologues.



Need more BFG.



So he can be a great conversationalist, assuming he has access to motorized saws.



Who needs electricity when you can light up a room with style.



Honestly I’m not sure how healthy his respect for that shotgun really is…



…oh, never mind, he’s already tossed it aside for an 80 lbs. upgrade.



Stupid dead imps are stupid…and dead.



SUPERBAD indeed.



Doomguy discovered the Colonel’s secret chicken ingredient!



Okay, what’s up with him channeling Al Gore all of a sudden? Clearly it isn’t enough for him to be a crazy guy with a gun; he has to be a crazy environmentalist with a gun.



“All reet”?



When in doubt, blow everything up. Words to live by.



Enter the BFG, and a room questioningly filled to the brim with hell spawn.



So he does have an emotional side.



Amen Doomguy, amen.

I love the fact that it completely bursts into some serious environmental shit before going back to non-sense killing.

Groovy!

It could be a tough find Inchworm, considering it only saw a limited release, but +1000 cool points if you manage to track down a copy.

i just listened to the dramatic reading on youtube - wow. really, really worth a listen.

favorite part was the environmental soliloquy he gives after falling in the radioactive waste.

"now i'm radioactive! that can't be good!"

also, liberal use of exclamation points FTW!
blehman's Destructoid Blog
This. Is. Terrible.

The writing is great though. Very much like gener-o-tron 5000 pumped it out in random order. Al Gore Doomguy FTW!!

dtoidarmy, our same-topic entries were purely coincidental; I just don't keep up with the cblogs as much as I should apparently.

How the hell did we both end up posting about an eleven-year-old comic on the exact same day? We should go in on some Powerball tickets or something. :)

 about me



Hey all, the name’s Justin and I’ve been hanging around Destructoid since late 2006. It’s okay if you don’t recognize me from way back when, as I was originally known as TheGoldenDonut (and still am in the forums). I joined the staff in 2007 as a News Contributor after flooding the tip line on a daily basis, and now I get to write stuff on the front page. It’s been one interesting ride, to say the least.

My online games, let me play them with you.
