Java 424
10 Kick Points to whoever guesses who the dastardly villain is who is creating super-barista-floozy-bots for Morebucks!
Is it Coffee Commander? Elon? Luthor Alexander III?
Better guess now, before the big reveal next week! Trust me, all the clues are there…
Sorry about the long absence, I’ve just been recovering from the flu. And of course, only a woman who has given birth without an epidural knows the pain of a man suffering with the flu.
We are big babies.
I am happy to report that I am taking care of two dogs on a beautiful hillside property in Malibu, California. There are also a couple of horses and a pen full of pigs here, but the owner has ranch hands that take care of those guys. Of course, that’s not going to stop me from getting a selfie with Django here.
Ironically, one of my doggie wards is also named Django.
Hopefully, I’ll shake off the last vestiges of this cough before I have to get on a plane early Friday morning, as I will be pet-sitting in The Villages, Florida for about two and a half weeks.
Oh, wait, forgot about the time lapse video. Which is actually, probably, a little more interesting than usual, because for the last couple of Java strips I’ve actually just been drawing all the figures from scratch instead of cut and pasting. Mostly because Java and Matt are out of their usual environments.




Can’t be Elon. This thing actually works and hasn’t burst into flames yet.
I’m gonna go with the rakshasha, just because it gives me an excuse to type rakshasha.
It’s just fun to say. Like “Mufasa.”
Honestly? I’m leaning towards thinking it’s the Morebucks lawyer.
Sorry, mistyped my Email on the. submit form – in case you need it.
I don’t know, after Java scared the evil out of him, does he have the guts to facilitate this level of vengeance-mechanobotics.
Hmmm… Someone who knows Java’s every move and can infiltrate Morebucks?
The trained dogs? I could see that coming back to bite him
Pretty sound reasoning. If Java trained them they would know his moves. So the only question that remains is… who is the one off-camera doing the talking?
I don’t know, but the syntax is EXACTLY the same as Kleese from Battleborn so I’m going to say Kleese from Battleborn!
