We were always put off by the character design of Voltorb. (You know, from Pokémon. Keep up, people.) Why does he look like a pokéball? Is that where pokéballs come from? Are they just hollowed-out Voltorbs? Are they unhatched Voltorb eggs? Well, we’d like to thank Brawl in the Family’s Wrapup-winning strip for turning a seemingly innocent video game franchise into an animal rights nightmare in our mind’s eye. Seriously, man. Thanks a ton.
Second and third place went to Penny Arcade’s “The Grim Curriculum” and Nerf Now’s “Id, Please,” respectively. If you’ve got a favorite strip you’d like to see in the next Wrapup, drop a link in the comments, or send in a tip!
