Anyway from the looks of things that penguin plane looks more advanced (well maybe not advanced. Complicated?) than the previous one. With big gigantic ridiculous-looking pitchfork intakes!
And for the record I’m not really all that surprised by the octoribbons. Penguins keep a whole bunch of random junk in their aircraft. Most of which seems to want to hurt Marina…
My first thought was that this was a bug ship. Since that’s what happened the first time through. Also it seems to holding altitude better than the penguins I remember.
Another idea is that this could be some whole new species. After all the new Socks is now a turtle and we never saw THAT before.
I feel like they’ve now officially entered some alternate universe where everything that happened to them is happening all over again, but slightly different. For instance, instead of a giant bug ship flown by bugs that sprays confetti, we now have a giant spaceship flown by who knows what that drops little purple octopuses.
Or this could be the same universe just continuing to be completely insane. I’m flexible.
Anyone else notice that alternate-Lemmo’s spiky bangs are flatter and straighter than original-Lemmo’s? Or is that just on this page.
@riverfox It’s a call-back. Lemmo’s hair has changed due to art evolution and now Lemmo #2 has Lemmo’s old hair. Which makes me wonder: Are the Aric and Lemmo we’ve been following since Chapter 2 the same Aric and Lemmo from Chapter 1? I’m a bit disturbed by that idea…
Lemmo 2 looks and feels very different from the normal Lemmo. The original Lemmo has grown to have a more rugged, mature face, with the sideburns and long shaggy hair, and often has a thoughtful expression lately; whereas L2 so far has shown a similar, but more whimsical expression, and a more exaggerated, cartoonish look.
Also, the octo-ribbons (somebody think of a witty name for them, fast) look fun. Let’s hope they’re not just scraps of ribbon and are actually a new species or something.
WAIT, THE space-time continum states that if something is changed in the past By something in the future, That thing in the future would turn into the new Lemmo and Aric or dissapear until the next L & A comes. My brain feel full.
As for applications, the Cyn Wolf series suggested cars that run off of stupidity. The pirate captain in Dubious Company made a flying ship that runs off drunkenness. I’m fairly certain that speculation as a fuel source would power crime-scene investigation equipment.
speculation is what helps fuel the stock market. people who invest in the stock market are called speculators.
if there were no speculators (who speculate) there would be no reason to have a stock market. nobody would buy shares of a company, so you wouldn’t be able to put a value on something like that.
SOMETIMES SCREAMING IN FRUSTRATION HELPS TOO. MAYBE IT WOULD HELP TO THREATEN THE COMPUTER WIHT BEING THROWN OUT THE WINDOW. EXPERIMENT WITH WHAT WORKS BEST FOR YOU. HAVE A NICE DAY!
Well, I’m done with this site. Pretty disappointing to come back months after they had stopped working on the comics to find a scant few new ones, and even those are nearly two months old.
I understand that people are anticipating a new comic, but I implore everyone to remember that this is -free- entertainment. Frankly, that the creators have labored as much as they already have to provide this quality for us at no charge, I’d still be grateful if there was never another Blank-It again.
Besides, that’s what RSS feeds are for; no need to continually check back, just live your life until the next update.

okay,i’m calling it,blank it is dead,the site will soon b esold after a small note of explanation in april,this is just rediculous,great comic guys if it hasn’t ended yet
Meh. Lemmo has taken long sabbaticals before. Last time it did this, it lasted a couple years of quiet before a new writer contacted him, procured the old notes, then started working side by side with him to resurrect the comic.
Of course, then it died a few months later, but point is it did get rolling again.
December 27th, 2011 at 11:00 pm
The penguins will figure out how to steer eventually, maybe even invent a radar system to see thins better inside the plane.
December 27th, 2011 at 11:31 pm
NO! NOT STARSCREAM!
This can’t be happening!
December 28th, 2011 at 12:51 am
What.
Are those like…ribbon octopuses? Lol at first I thought they looked like monkeys from Barrel-o-Monkeys or whatever it’s called… XD
December 28th, 2011 at 1:23 am
Oh Lemmo. See what happens when you try to take control and be rational?
Exactly.
Haha I love everyone’s expressions.
Also: OCTORIBBONS? They seem exciting ^-^
Great job guys, like always! Can’t wait for more :)
December 28th, 2011 at 2:27 am
Whoa, sudden Wednesday update!

December 28th, 2011 at 7:00 am
So instead of a bug, it’s a penguin ship this time. Will there be a penguin inside a penguin inside a penguin this time?
December 28th, 2011 at 6:19 pm
What? No Confetti?
December 28th, 2011 at 6:29 pm
Oh god, not again.
December 28th, 2011 at 7:26 pm
Oh god yes, here we go again!
December 29th, 2011 at 6:46 am
*staring at the turtle* Lemmo looks weird in a vest.
December 29th, 2011 at 1:00 pm
Well, that lasted all of two seconds.

@Zapheres YES :D http://blankitcomics.com/2011/12/12/finding-consensus/
December 31st, 2011 at 12:48 am
Poor Marina, she was the only one that saw the ship coming….
December 31st, 2011 at 10:30 am
Lemmo lemmo lemmo… Your not spose to the rational one. And wasn’t it a bug last time. Weird but cool. I love these comics
December 31st, 2011 at 9:39 pm
Everyone ready to be calm and rational and try to figure out this situation? Great, because rocket ship pooping purple octopi.
January 6th, 2012 at 4:25 pm
The turtle saw it coming lol I <3 turtles

Its Back up although i suppose it has been for a little wile. Im just happy.
January 12th, 2012 at 2:04 pm
Wheeee! I’m confused but gleefully happy, and i dont like glee, but i will allow it. for this comic! YEY!
January 12th, 2012 at 8:37 pm

Wait, I meant That Lemmo and Aric would change into the new ones/dissapear. I like turtles.
January 14th, 2012 at 7:50 pm
Ummmm…. Penguins have now created interstellar capable ships….. We are screwed
January 16th, 2012 at 12:10 pm
@Chaudblaze What are stars?
January 16th, 2012 at 7:37 pm
Then again the tube may have been a portal into an alternate dimension and the bugs have become robo-bugs

If speculation was a fuel source, this would be the highest paid website on the planet.
January 25th, 2012 at 6:14 pm
I wonder if Freezie is a scientist researching the possible fuel applications of speculation? If so, what might be said applications?
January 26th, 2012 at 4:49 am
I was just going for a fairly clever comment.
As for applications, the Cyn Wolf series suggested cars that run off of stupidity. The pirate captain in Dubious Company made a flying ship that runs off drunkenness. I’m fairly certain that speculation as a fuel source would power crime-scene investigation equipment.

@random man: natch.
Also, I find that the combined news of not being dead AND Blank-it not being dead exceedingly pleasing. Yay.
