X marks the spot.

@Zamzoph: All heroes have actual names, you just have to look around

Dota characters are specific people? With names like "Lich" and "Bounty Hunter", I would've thought otherwise!

Cool, now I'm imagining a female Kunka getting *ahem* "Ravaged" by Tidehunter. Stupid Japanese porn

New arc MVM

If anyone wants to know when a new arc/ comic comes out, that's in 1-2 valve months
Enjoy the waiting

@Spy: You mean about the army robot note? I wonder if tonite comic will be about that.

I would advise everyone to look in the Team Fortress 2 website

Of course, if this was /vg/ arguments would have already begun regarding the nature of Pucks gender.

"different from TF2 the characters in DOTA are specific people so changing them would not work in most cases.."

Uh.
Sure.
Okay.

AKA: Too much work, I'm lazy, and here's a bullshit blatantly false excuse.

Nerf can you make a comic with Engi and Engileena in it by tomorrow?

Cu'z I really want to see the two getting hot after a long day of killing Spy's!

Thanks, Oh and the two must be horny!

holy crap that worked... ok, now i know that i CAN post comments. wish id known that last year, when i found the comic. anyway, i propose a toast to Jo, the big purple tentacle-alien cartoonist thing that has been entertaining me since i was 12!

testing testing. 1234

@Spy: Rule63 on those horny teenagers too!

@Fluffy: But then we would have those horny teenagers D:

In the morrow.

Hey Nerf when are you going to make a new comic?

TOMORROW? Next week? Next month? Don't tell me next year!?

Considering the low numbers of cute girls in DOTA2 I don't really see the issue in improving some of them.
Do it like with TF2 characters, go beyond the rule 63 and add some extra characterization.
If only DOTA2 could absorb LOL, keep its gameplay and graphics, but adopt the cute girls.

So why is Tidehunter Japanese?

@Drake: She's got pointy knees, bro.

Hope you make a new comic Nerf! thanks!

@herpa derpa: Actually, most of those are, yeah. I mean, are you seriously suggesting sheriff "I have not a single outfit that is not fetish material" Caitlyn as "not a babe"? I play LoL, and prefer it to DotA by a country mile, but their female character design annoys me a lot.

Kurae! Giga Drill Breeeeeaaaaaak!

@Savasaan Todaro: O,M,G you like Spiderman and Deadpool!

I friki love there story's I got all the Deadpool comics even the old once best mercenary in the business tho!

Kunkka is my favorite hero....now I won't be able to look at him(her) the same way again...not sure if bad thing or epic thing
lol thanks (?)

@herpa derpa: Also consider that all of the characters you mentioned, with the exception of one, are extremely attractive female humans (and one robot) with costumes that are borderline fetishistic.

Compare them with nonhumans: Broodmother, Death Prophet, Spectre.

@herpa derpa: Well...

Compare Dragon Age: Origins, and Knights of the Old Republic. Which cast do you care more about?

Compare Prince of Persia: Sands of Time to PoP: Warrior Within.

Compare Spiderman to Deadpool.

Since when does Character Design not make a game better?

funny .......no that much but yea sure why not....

@haha What the hell are you on?Are Leona, or Diana or Irelia or Karma or Akali or Caitlyn or Fiora or Lux or Orianna or Riven or Shyvanna chibi/planet babe?
Spoken like a true fanboy that generalizes everything.
And since when does character design make a game better than another one?

@Bulk101: Yeah, he usually read'em but he rarely comments.

>tsundere
CANCER.

Does Jo even read these comments?

Turn Skeleton King female?

Nothing will change

@Random Jerk: Oh really ... I didn't know, sorry about that, and for that joke Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ahhhhhh???

I saw FemKunkka and thought Katarina from LoL. x-x

And obviously Jo is gonna make Sven female....obv....

@The Everything: I was just joking :D

@Random Jerk: Wow calm down man, sorry, shit happens I guess.

Blatant fanservice? This is DOTA2, not LoL!

@Random Jerk: Thank you for giving him the attention that he wants!

@The Everything: HEY LOOK AT ME GUYS, YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO ME JO, PAY ATTENTION TO ME PEOPLE

100% of your postsin a nutshell

Hey Nerf can you make a comic with oh I don't know... a joke of TF2 or UMvC3 or something like that cu'z these jokes don't really get me?

Oh and Engi, Engileena and some of the heroes and villains should be in it!

@Ivan: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Tide to kunka "Kunka why dont you navigate throu my waves" ?

@ Platypus: How can I Google it if I don't know what it is?
And this Dota doesn't help at all!

@ Anon

I see he was just pretending being ignorance, keep seeing his comments and not sure he was trolling or just really being a frog in the well

@Anon 2.0: That's exactly why I'm claiming that he is seeking attention.

@Platypus: Look into other comics if you don't believe Anon

@ Platypus: He is just seeking attention pretending ignorance. Ignore him.

@The Everything,man: Sigh... what is it with people and not doing their own Googling. I remember a day when finding information was actually hard.

http://www.dota2.com/heroes/
http://www.dota2.com/hero/Kunkka/

Lose your boner yet?

Who is the Vergil looking girl in the center of this comic?

@Meh: How can you be sure that the ugly strange characters are male? Like in Disgaea where that dragon vassal reveals that in fact it is female. Maybe some of the non-human creatures are female too...

@Ninj77
Who knows.

AFTER I DEAL WITH KUNKKA YOU WILL BE THE NEXT ON THE LIST JO

You say "Tidehunter is totally tsundere for Kunkka", but isn't Kunkka the one in the 2nd panel giving the tsundere speech?

@Sum1: That's the biggest question all of us fans have: when are you going to bring back that cute Lusty Argonian Maid?! Come on Jo ol'pal!

@haha: +1 :D

Also, Pudge is the best hooker.

@Meh: Yeah, all female characters on Dota2 are either from planet babe or chibi. Look at Broodmother. Or Templar Assassin. Or Phantom Assassin. Or Spectre, Krobelus, Enchantres... I mean, these are all obviously hot chicks or chibi chick OH WAIT.

You're thinking about LoL. That's why Dota2 > LoL.

Because we wouldn't want a female character that doesn't look like a sexy slut. That's the only thing we're looking for in a female character after all, amIrite?

@Bulk101
Ty, was looking for that, can't believe I missed that big ass blood stain before.

This is unrelated but:
1. go to tf2 website
2. click on the blood on the left side of the 'team fortress 2 free to play' thing under the classes
3. research
4. make a new comic

tsundere kunkka, i approve of this.

@NerfNow: Want Fem!Azwraith.

@Meh: Luna, Lina, Rylai) really unattractive. After all, they are very well trained mercenaries.

The only true "gratuitously sexy" character is Queen of Pain, who is a Succubus and should be as such. Character design is driven by character traits, as it should be.

@Meh: unbalances the roster so much. The characters that will be generically female don't have a reason not to look good, so they do look good. (In the case of Naga Siren and Medusa, I leave that to the fetishists.)

There isn't a point in making a hero that's suppose to be fit, (Lyralei, Mortred

@Meh: Untrue! Dota 2 boasts Broodmother, Mecurial, and Krobalus. (Carry, Carry, Pusher)

However, the general trend of this is because many people default to the masculine form when designing beast characters unless femininity is a specific point, i.e. Broodmother's maternal instinct. This is what

I guess Storm Spirit.

Kinda lame, that in almost all MoBa games, male characters have all forms and colors, from ugly, to strange to epic. While female are about 99,9% Either from planet babe or chibi.

You're the reason I even queue on the Brazil servers!

I've got my invite to DotA2 for free after merely filling in some form on their site.

For a moment I thought the female Kunkka was a Lol character... Huge cleaveage and overly innocent anime face :D

I was hoping for something about Avatar: The Last Airbender (the cartoon, not the movie).

But this was neat too.

SO! ''clap hands once'' whats there to talk about?

Well that Engi is in the picture ''smiles'' Shuma Gorath is making a picture of some,sort, and that one girl on the second picture reminds me of a female version of Devil May Cry 3's Vergil!

Pretty good comment huh!

@pineapple Dota 2 you can buy an invite for $30 from valve +get a bunch of cosmetics, or have someone who owns the game trade 2 chest keys ($5) for an invite. Either way its widely expected that at the end of the international dota 2 is officially out of beta and F2P.

Thanks for enforcing Rule 63!

last panel cannot unsee

Lusty Argonian Maid! I remember Jo hired her, where is she now?

Femkka reminded me of origin-tan. I would like to see the return of lusty argonian maid in dota comics, Jo!

I'm not really into DOTA, if you did LoL stuff I would get it. But DOTA2 is invite only and DOTA 1 there is no real point to play far as I understand (what with LoL being around).

Kunkka-kun?

or...... Kunkka-tan?

or...... Kunkka-chan?

You know who we haven't seen for... how long has it been? Engineer. Not Engie-tan, Engineer. Just occurred to me.
Guess we might see him once the build tool gets an alternative item.

I got the first "mine"!

Also, on topic: I see what Engi means about the "perhaps not" side of things.

Meh. I'd hit it.
