ED-209

So this strip is a bit random, but I thought it would be a funny excuse to draw ED-209… Do you guys remember ED-209? He was the evil mech in Robocop. Remember the mech that malfunctioned and blasted that guy in the office? Here I'll attach a link in case you forgot.

My favorite part of that clip is after the guy takes about a thousand rounds to the chest someone still says “someone call a parimedic!” ha! good luck with that.
A lot of people assumed that by having a mech called ED-209 that I was somehow using the robot to comment on my own tendencies as a roommate. Well I can assure you it is pure coincidence that my name is also Ed. As far as I can recall I have never blasted any roommates with armor piercing shells over an argument about doing the dishes…

Love you art, man. I wish I was that slick. Great punchline, too. Who can forget the ED-209?

but you use armor peicing rounds when they bring home someones mom for a quicky right?

Maybe I should trade in my Rancor Monster in the basement for an ED-209. But, yeah, I know the room-mate grief all too well. Brilliant strip.

Robot roomates suck indeed. 'Specially evil ones.

My wife turns into Ed-209 when I leave the toilet seat up. Great strip, very funny. ~Brad
