Dangers of WoW: 1960's anti-booze comic remixed

Here's an anonymously remixed 1960s "Dangers of ALcoholism" comic strip redone as a hilarious, profane, NSFW "Dangers of Warcraft" strip about the problems that really serious gamers face. Link (via Wonderland)

Update: Ethan sez, "The alcoholism strips referred to in your Dangers of World of Warcraft post come from here - with the majority of the art from the 'Jane's Husband Drinks Too Much' storyline. But more importantly, this WOW parody of the strips has literally gone around the world and has never been properly cited to its creator, username /enigmahfc' from the Something Awful forums. It's part of a larger group of parodies of the AA series, all quite funny, found here.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Well, I’m impressed because it looks like the only time I’ve seen Schaffenburger inked by Wood. And if knowing that makes me more pathetic than those characters, all I can say is “Ehhh!”

I’ve done similar “remixes” with Archie comics, two of which I scanned in. I also scanned in a Thor remix as well:
