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.
