This may be a matter of preference, but is a Rolls truly better than a Bently? This is where my being poor doesn’t help with my worldliness…

Young dudes don’t wheel one of those luxoboats, Alan. They’re for old fart millionaires and oil sheiks. You need a Corvette, a Viper or a Hellcat; something that boogies and smokes tires. Ship would love riding in one of those fire breathers.
I think that may be part of the joke here. XD Alan was raised by his late grandfather, who had the kind of skrilla to be said “old fart millionaire”, but we’ll get more into that at a later time in the story 😉 Short version: Alan was raised to have old fart tastes. In that one regard, he’s a little like me. I drive an Oldsmobile. Before that, I drove an Impala. ;p
And he listened to his upper brain.
Shocking, right? XD
Very
It’s spelled Bentley actually, and I think it and Rolls Royce are in the same tier, but they’re still not in the highest or even second highest tier of luxury cars.
Well, maybe ship knows that and is about to set Allan(sp?) straight.
One “L”, boss 😉
Ship is going to set a whole lot of things “straight” on Alan, but the spelling of his dialog, not so much. XD
Hey, you know you won the comment contest last month, right?
I didn’t see anything in the comments! I need to pay better attention.
Haha I was actually expecting to win for my comment on page 9, but a win’s a win!
so uh.. I get to pick from sketches or summat? For what becomes the next vote image?
Weeeeeelllll…. since it was rapidly coming up on mid-month, we kinda sorta picked one for you. HOWEVER! If you look at the 5 choices, and pick one other than the “ero-loli” option, we will make that the sketch for next month. And if I have some extra cash, I’ll see if PrettÃÂo can do TWO sketches next month. Yours, and the next winner. That should put us back on track ^^
aww but loli is my favorite. oh well
QUESTION: where are these choices listed? I’m an idiot and have trouble navigating this site. I can’t even find the vote button so I can vote for whatever this thing is we’re voting for to see sketches.
Oh, there’s the TWC button. at the bottom. Well that solves one mystery!
Ohhhh okay, previous comic’s comments field. THERE IT IS. I’m an idjit.
Hmmmm tough call (Ohh I see, my favorite was already picked. Yay! You can skip me now if you want, no need to make someone double their workload) definitely either magical dildos or genderbent Alan.. I guess.. yeah, give us girl-Alan. That’ll be fun for all. Whee! (or just disregard, whichever! sorry for being clueless and late)
I’ll tell PrettÃÂo to do gender bend Alan. She did it once before. Should be funny to do it again XD
I’m glad we share tastes, and that I could push for your preference too!
♥ for lolis!
forget rolls royce and bentley. get an antique – i’d suggest a delahaye.

Weeeeeellllll, there’s a small problem with rare antiques. And that is the “practical” nature of wishes. See our Genie Handbook bonus comic for a general idea. ^^
Imagine if there was only 5 or 6 of something in the world. And then, suddenly, Alan shows up with a seventh. Collectors (especially on particularly rare and valuable items) might become suspicious as to their nature and decry them as fraudulent. Still, I like the cut of your jib for the suggestion, though. 😉
I thought he was either going to wish for help wooing some other lady or wish for the shop to be cleaned up. This is good; I’m getting a better idea of his personality.
By the way: Get a Honda! It’s the Rolls Royce of cars!
Ship… just… stand back and let him work his way through this. He just needs some time to settle on what he wants.
Okay, seriously though, lots of power but no scope is the best way to go. Aladdin (original) wished for a huge and opulent castle, but made himself difficult to empathize with. Simple and modest wishes are the way to go; that way when you screw them up you don’t ruin a bunch of people’s lives.
This is great; I look forward to this so much each week.
I’m not a car guy so I can’t really tell if Rolls is better than Bently. Probably preference to be honest.
I really, really love the last 2 panels though. That shocking realization then the starry eyed fantasy (princess) look while Ship is more than disappointed.
Funny tag of the week:
And I diiid iiiiiit myyyyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! – Mister Sinatra is an icon. It’s almost a shame to put him next to Alan. I mean, what famous person would be happy to be put in the same box as, well, Alan.
Ship is another case though! I bet a LOT of famous people would be head over heels for her, even the females.
