Unfortunately, it's always the hypercubes who quit the company and move on to better things...

(Hypercubes are a special piece in Bejeweled that zaps away a lot of other gems and are often used as a last resort when there are no moves left.)

Today's cameo appearances:
1st row: Karmakat, EJ Husky, OldTiger, Drekhan Green, Soriac
2nd row: Vandal, Tyro, Nogard Flow, OmegaWolf, Felan
3rd row: Brighttail, SonicWolfe, D.Wayne, Lord Chaos, Stubat
4th row: Lupercus Whitewolf, Chaos, Steviebear Maxwell's husky gal, Antarian_knight, MishaFox
5th row: Terror Rage, TomRedlion, Dmitriy, Tickledlion, Sky

Bigger version of panel 2 here.

Edit: I mixed up a character >.< Row 2, third character is Nogard Flow, not Dominic. Sorry, Dominic, I'll save you a slot for next time!

Fun fun, but what happened to the hair over BT's left eye? :)

Great likeness tho :) Love the style.

Drekhan • 09/25/2016

All right. First row! <3

Shockwave07 • 09/25/2016

Swapping Old Tiger with Drakhan Green to create the dragon combo and hope to cascade into tiger combo...

Idenjant • 09/25/2016

Hot dang, right in the center!

@Brighttail Oops I'll touch that up in a bit ;)

By the way, I'll post the timelapse of the coloring stream tomorrow :)

Gaia bless Pakesh_De Snoofy old burr

OmegaWolf • 09/25/2016

I see me. Cool.

MishaFox • 09/25/2016

YEAH! I got a cameo! It reminds me of the opening scene in that old Brady Bunch TV show.

Frank • 09/25/2016

Of course the modern generations don't know what Bejeweled is, the only "match 3" game they know is Candy Crush

soriac • 09/25/2016

What, nobody else celebrates that this is NtN Strip No100? Congrats, Jan :-)

PS: now that's really a smirk on that guy top right...

Shockwave07 • 09/25/2016

You know, it's pretty bad when the creator of the comic doesn't bring up the centennial comic page!

Finish game, gather be-furreds, make good juju!

@PakeshDe 🎵 Here's the story... of a lovely lady... 🎵 :D

@soriac @Shockwave07 Thank you! I forgot to mention that. Well, technically this is strip 100 if we include the rejected comics that were pulled early on. Otherwise, the official tally is at 98. So guess that means we get to celebrate again in a couple weeks :)

drivernjax • 09/25/2016

Jan, is that you standing next to Jessie in the last panel? If not, it's GOT to be your twin brother. LOL.

jprime • 09/25/2016

@Drekhan How come you're red if your last name's Green?

soriac • 09/25/2016

@drivernjax: I suppose it is Jan next to Jessie. They both work in the same company and are both new at this job, thus it's reasonable to assume they would both attend the same waste of ti^w^w^wteamwork meeting

OldTiger • 09/25/2016

Top row! I'm flattered.

Jan • 09/26/2016

The timelapse is done ^^ https://vimeo.com/184280952

TomRedlion • 09/26/2016

I like the vaguely confused expression I'm wearing here. I'm clearly aware that I've been boxed into a bad analogy to a silly video game.

Brighttail • 09/27/2016

It is okay, Jan. You don't need to fix it. I have lots of 'grey' hair that BT going white from age is probably not a bad thing.

drivernjax • 09/28/2016

@Soriac I must have forgotten that Jan and Jessie work for the same company because I most definitely didn't remember it. That would also explain Jessie speaking to him since he's friends with Tor and Jessie knows Tor. LOL.

Wolf: "You want me to what?!"

Jan: "A hypercube. A real hypercube. Look, my boss is getting dangerously weird and this could ensure some job security."

Wolf: "Okay...I may be willing to push the limits on engineering, but after all of the catastrophic results I've incurred, we're talking about something that could break space-time. I'll endure what I must in the name of science but I draw the line at annihilating friends and family."

Jan: "I see...thanks anyway."

Wolf: "I didn't say I wouldn't do it...it's just going to take a lot more time and thinking ahead to make sure I don't wipe out reality!"

...come on. He may be a mad scientist, but I think he draws the line at lethality and terrorism.

Shockwave07 • 09/28/2016

@Jan a couple of comics got rejected?

Just curious if they were posted here (and possibly linked from furaffinity) before being rejected.

Since when do Corporate Management types count as the wise?

LLNV & LLPT

Siraj • 10/03/2016

I could go for more analogies like this in the real world.

WB101 • 10/05/2016 • edited

Back in my day, a hypercube was what we called the cubicle that contained the person who’d had too much coffee. Bad things would happen there. BAD things... shudder

@Silverwolf Why do I suddenly feel the urgent need to portal into the future and destroy Wolf’s plans, or at least take them back to Tesla for review... since all Einstein ever wanted to do was poke around the edges of my portals and discuss my relatives or something.

O_o

Silverwolf • 10/08/2016

@WB101: I don't think Wolf wants to destroy the universe. I think he might try to make a four-dimensional cube, then either scrap the idea if he finds out it could destroy a significant chunk of spacetime, or succeed in a completely divergent way and end up building at least the framework for a TARDIS. (Not capable of travel, but definitely bigger on the inside!) At least in the latter scenario, he might get his revenge on Bullsworth by giving him a well-deserved aneurysm.

Happy 100th strip

Ascelion • 12/23/2016

Les't see if anyone gets this reference: "SQUAD F, FOR F*CK'S SAKE STOP PLAYING BEJEWELEED!"

Silverwolf • 01/11/2017

@Ascelion: SAO Abridged.
