Finally I have something to release today. After a long hiatus and then a long “I’m out of hiatus now but still lazy as shit” I finally got something done and here you go. Club Nintendo comics from 1994: Airbag my ass, madame!
In this release you can see the end of Mario’s time-traveling adventure that started in 1993, and a 4-chapter story about Kirby as a detective, complete with lots of cultural references to TV shows. Also they seemed to like Plok a fair bit this year, enough to have him appear in both story lines.
Club Nintendo
Good to see new updates from you!
I agree! Love the Club Nintendo stuff, thanks a lot for going to all the trouble. One thing I didn’t get though (aside from the cultural references), what is wrong with Santa in the very last panel that causes them to be surprised? He has a white fluffy tail? Is it supposed to be Scrooge McDuck?
Having said that though, the annotations are usually very informative when it comes to context-specific jokes, so I appreciate the research. Thanks again.
He’s got like goat legs or something going on.
I’m very excited you picked up on this project again! While you’re working on the other translations, I was wondering if you could provide the raw, untranslated files for us of all the comics? Also, do you have the N-Gang comics as well? Thanks.
The raws we are working from are on the releases page if you want em. N-Gang stuff should be in there too. If we’re missing anything, let me know so we can do that too eventually. I know there were a lot of standalone special comics, for example, at least some of which we do have scans for.
