<< Return to main comic list

So in this comic, Crouton (aka me) wakes up with a mild fever and decides to go to the doctor to find out what his fever is about. The doctor is actually Rollton Soup (aka Aolko93), who diagnoses Crouton with "Soupanus", which is the soup variant of tetanus. He then asks Crouton whether he has touched any rusted surfaces lately, and the flashback is blinding...(This, as are the other comics, are not true, and I didn't even get a fever.)

The current story arc, "Soupanus" started with this comic.

<< Return to main comic list

Unlike others, this one features Carrot and Canned instead of me and Canned. In this, Carrot is elected as the Lil Lindo (For more information go to this link); he is then at first all up for it, but has a horrible surprise in store after he becomes the Lil Lindo.

Okay, so maybe this isn't true, the Lil Lindo is indeed still allowed to go to the forums and such, but this was my initial reaction to it. Hopefully Carrot will be a good Lil Lindo.

EDIT: Shoot! I forgot to update the stage size, so the full comic could not be viewed...link updated. Hopefully you should see the new comic now.

<< Return to main comic list

So in this comic, Crouton (aka me) discusses the vulnerable nature of soups with Canned (aka Narcissy) as their life force can easily spill out of their bodies and lead to their eventual death; both him and I come upon a conclusion, and I decide to demonstrate this theory by testing it on a fellow soup squad member. Coincidentally, Taco arrives on the scene, and in the end, he learned that curiosity DID kill the cat.

<< Return to main comic list

So in this comic, Crouton (aka me) tries to brush his teeth with 2 different brands of toothpaste, both of which are fierce competitors, simultaneously. Canned (aka Narcissy) tries to stop him, but fails in the attempt and so gets angry at a tarry Crouton when Crouton explodes, spilling tar over the carpet.

This is an experimental webcomic I'm making as part of the Soup Squad. Comes out once daily, or faster than that. Some art, such as the drawings of soup squad characters other than the default come from common libraries in the Soup Squad Forums, made by Ninja, aka CrazyRock. I only draw the secondary art and make the storyline.
Post in the comments below if you're interested! Every incident depicted in the comic strips are fictitional, although the ideas may be real.

I've decided to change all images from their hoster, lulZIMG to the Dumping Grounds. This makes sure my files will never be deleted and also has the option of allowing users to download any comics they like.

I'm making a new game for the day after Soup Fest, called "Canned's Flash Fall". It's basically a game where CannedSoup (aka Narcissy) has to collect objects and avoid other soup squad characters. The player has to collect at least 1000 points' worth of flash to pass the level; soups steal 150 +. The player can control the rate at which Canned falls by pressing A, but it decreases the score multiplier as the speed goes down.

How's that?

Am I an artist? This emote is wonderful, though.

I've finally realized this...after 1 day I no longer had the same rants as I had for this redesign...even though there are bugs in this system for the moment, I'm already no longer missing the previous design. The previous design looks crap compared to this.


Posted by Gimmick - February 8th, 2012


Slowly starting to wrap my head around the site. It'll take me days to fully understand the new NG but hopefully it'll be worth it. (When is Tom going to fix the Flash Portal and the Art Portal?) We still can't upload animated user pics, and the stats aren't on the front page, but eh, I'll let it slide.


Posted by Gimmick - February 8th, 2012


Okay, first off, I expected something better. I don't know what the emotes mean, I can't set my gender to unspecified, I don't know which threads on the forum are active so I may bump topics, there are no animated emotes, and the level icons are way too small.

Is newgrounds becoming more like a mainstream website? I guess so.
