Welcome to Troll and Stick, the newest comic strip on Arcade After Dark.  This one features two teenage boys who are not shown but you see their word balloons.  Troll is the one who likes new video games and has a box shaped letter balloon.  Troll is short for Controller. 

Stick is the other teen who likes classic video games and has the round shaped letter balloon.  Stick is short for joystick.  Their comic strips will rotate between new and old games.  They will mostly complain and argue about which games are better, new games or classic games.  Be warned that unlike the other strips on this site, these may contain some more mature images and language.  Nothing bad, but probably rated PG13 as opposed to the rest of the site that is between G and PG rating.
