While the strip began as a gag-based series in which the three main protagonists (Torg, Riff and Zoë) would stumble from one brief, bizarre, parody-centric adventure to the next, the characters and plotlines have gradually developed to the point that the storylines are longer and more serious.

Characters -
The characters in Sluggy Freelance are a varied and diverse lot. The primary protagonist Torg is a cheerful and impulsive nerd, who frequently finds himself going on wild adventures (though rarely of his own volition). Often, these adventures are enabled by Torg's genius inventor friend, Riff. Zoe, the only truly normal character of the bunch, serves as the futile voice of reason for the cast. They are accompanied by their sometimes-witch friend Gwynn, a psychopathic switchblade-wielding rabbit Bun-Bun, the hyperactive ferret Kiki, and a shape-shifting alien named Aylee. This is a list of characters from the popular webcomic Sluggy Freelance. ...
Storyline
1997 The early strips introduce us to the main characters. Torg, a freelance web designer, buys a cute talking rabbit with attitude, named Bun-Bun. Riff, Torg's best friend, summons demons for beer, and their neighbor Zoë is trampled by a "bikini-suicide-Frisbee" match. Riff, with his Dimensional Flux Agitator (DFA), accidentally warps Torg and himself into a Star Trek /Alien parody. The man-eating alien Aylee comes back to Earth with them, and is eventually hired on as Torg's secretary. The current Star Trek franchise logo Star Trek is an American science fiction entertainment series and media franchise. ...

Sam Sein is introduced as a wannabe ladies' man and host for many parties. Bun-Bun is captured by and escapes from an animal testing center (meeting/terrorizing Dr. Schlock along the way). The other escapees, including a hyperactive ferret named Kiki, move into Sam's place. Dr. Lorna, a parody of Dr. Laura, is introduced as Riff's mom. Santa is introduced as having a rivalry with Bun-Bun. Gwynn is introduced as Zoë's coworker at Sam's New Year's party, and dates Riff on and off. Trinomial name Mustela putorius furo (Linnaeus, 1758) In general use, a ferret is a domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo). ...
Laura Catherine Schlessinger (born January 16, 1947) is an American cultural and conservative commentator, best known as host of the popular Dr. Laura radio advice call-in show. ...
1998 Sam mysteriously disappears for a while and returns with a wife, Valerie. Valerie via Sam kicks out Kiki, who then moves into Riff's place, filled with shiny buttons that activate all sorts of weaponry. Bun-Bun hijacks Riff's giant robot in order to rob a bank, accidentally killing the (and thereby becoming the new) Easter bunny along the way. An Easter Bunny figurine The Easter Bunny is an example of folklore mythology. ...
Torg is accidentally sent to the Dimension of Pain by one of Riff's inventions, where he is surrounded by demons, unable to harm him in a "Sacred Circle of Protection" until he is rescued by other-dimension versions of RIff and Zoë of the Dimension of Lame. The "real" Riff and Zoë rescue an alternate Torg from yet another dimension from where he speaks only Portuguese.
After an initial attack by a vampire, it is revealed that Sam and Valerie are both vampires of the Lysinda Circle, who then kidnap Torg and Zoë in order to turn them into vampires as well, but are saved by Riff, Bun-Bun, Kiki, and Aylee. Philip Burne-Jones, The Vampire, 1897 Vampires are mythological or folkloric beings that subsist on human and/or animal lifeforce. ...
The Halloween party marks the start of a Sluggy tradition: The Dimension of Pain sends out a demon to capture and/or kill Torg every Halloween, beginning with the hilariously incompetent Reakk. Since Torg was covered in hair as the result of fueling a fog machine with Rogaine instead of propane, Reakk didn't recognize him and instead attacked Kiki's robotic Torg costume. Rogaine (also branded as Regaine outside the U.S.) is the brand name for Minoxidil, when used as a topical drug to treat male pattern baldness. ...
Riff and Torg later set out for an Egyptian pyramid in which they get trapped and celebrate a "Sluggy Mummy Christmas." They escape with the help of a parody of Tomb Raider's Lara Croft. Meanwhile, Santa sends out the three ghosts of Christmas to (unsuccessfully) battle Bun-Bun. For the movie staring Angelina Jolie, see Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. ...

1999 Berk, a man from the future, is introduced and threatens Torg before being chased off by Aylee, but not before freezing Aylee in time first. Meanwhile, Gwynn gains magical powers from the Book of E-Ville. The demon K'z'k inhabits Gwynn's body. K'z'k is freed from Gwynn's body by Torg and sent back in time by Berk's time-freezing machine. However, Gwynn's soul is still with K'z'k, and so she falls into a coma. “Fiend†redirects here. ...
Santa collaborates with the other Easter rabbits to build a mecha-Easter Bunny to kill Bun-Bun, but it is tricked into a steel mill and melts. Afterwards, Bun-Bun goes to confront Santa and both disappear after Santa's workshop explodes. After being amnesic for a while, Bun-Bun accepts the job of the Easter Bunny (since he killed the former Easter Bunny), not knowing what it entails. Amnesia (from Greek ) (see spelling differences) is a condition in which memory is disturbed. ...
Riff builds a time machine to make sure the Y2K bug doesn't interrupt beer distribution. Zoë, in an effort to prove herself not boring, willingly comes along with Torg. However, the time machine isn't Y2K compatible, and sends Torg and Zoë far back in time into an "Army of Darkness" parody. There Zoë is seen as the "Storm Breaker" for one army while Torg is thought to be the opposing army's leader, Lord Torgamous. K'z'k then attacks with his demon army, and steals the Book of E-Ville, leading Torg and Zoë to reunite to find the Book of Güd. They travel to the Cave of Yffi, and there defeat K'Z'K. Gwynn reawakens in the present, and Riff, with the help of another time traveler named Dr. Schlock, goes back in time to bring back Torg and Zoë in Schlock's inflatable time machine. The Year 2000 problem (also known as the Y2K problem, the millennium bug, the Y2K Bug or just Y2K) was the result of a practice in early computer program design that caused some date-related processing to operate incorrectly for dates and times on and after January 1, 2000. ...

Torg, Bun-Bun, and Kiki take a road trip and get lost in the woods. They happen upon the Isle of Dr. Steve (in the middle of a forest), and Oasis, a gymnast assassin who was apparently brainwashed by Dr. Steve. Dr. Steve hints that Oasis is really a robot and instructs Oasis to fall in love with Torg. Shortly thereafter Kiki accidentally sets the place to self-destruct.
This Halloween, the ghost of Squeekybobo, an elf who used to work for Santa, attacks Torg. As part of Riff's scientific experiments, Kiki is given Pixy Stix candy and proceeds to move at supersonic speeds. Aylee is sent to Cannibals Anonymous and befriends a woolly mammoth named Percy. Torg goes off to meet the crew of the User Friendly webcomic while A.J. (also from UF) helps Riff battle a giant monster made of old coffee, oily hair, and Microsoft programmer parts - the Crudosaurus, a giant version of UF's Crud Puppy. On Christmas, Mrs. Claus battles Bun-Bun. Pixy Stix is a powdered candy packaged in a wrapper that resembles a drinking straw. ...

2000 When the year 2000 hits, Torg, Riff, Zoë, and Gwynn fall into a coma. The Dr. Schlock of the future recognizes Kiki as a subject of one Dr. Crabtree, who experimented with nanites that would spread like a virus. However, they weren't Y2K compliant, so they would eventually destroy their host. After some strong-arming from Bun-Bun and Sam, Dr. Schlock shuts down the nanites and the cast reawakens. The Dr. Schlock of the present later has his brain eaten by a nanite-enhanced Dr. Crabtree.
In the Dimension of Pain, Reakk awakens one of the three Dragons of Annoyia. The dragon then proceeds to decimate the countryside with its flowery breath. After several unsuccessful attempts to appease it, Reakk chases the dragon away by boinking it on the nose.
Gwynn —again possessed by K'z'k—is again dabbling in black magic, and in a fit of anger curses Torg: whenever he tries to say something important, he instead brays like a donkey. Oasis shows up, despite appearing to have died in the explosion of Dr. Steve's lab, and kidnaps Torg with the intent to marry him. She finds a note Torg wrote—who had been writing everything important in an attempt to get around the curse—saying that he loves Zoë. When Gwynn shows up, Oasis thinks her to be Zoë, and the two battle, ending with Oasis' seemingly second death.
Aylee emerges from a cocoon as a potato-eating being who is able to fly and emit Electromagnetic pulses. Bun-Bun's Baywatch tapes are erased as a result, and the cast flees from his wrath. Torg and Zoë take the opportunity to go on a retreat with several of Zoë's college friends, including Zoë's boyfriend Dex. However, the crew encounters "The Evil," kittens which Satan spawned on a dare. Several minor characters die, including Dex. Torg and Zoë meet up with Riff and company in the Caribbean. Bun-Bun, in the meanwhile, hires Santa's old black-op elves in Santa's absence to track down the crew. Dr. Crabtree then moves to attack Kiki, to keep her project a secret. However, Aylee releases an EMP nearby, shutting down the nanites in Dr. Crabtree's body, liquefying her. The term electromagnetic pulse (EMP) has the following meanings: electromagnetic radiation from an explosion (especially a nuclear explosion) or an intensely fluctuating magnetic field caused by Compton-recoil electrons and photoelectrons from photons scattered in the materials of the electronic or explosive device or in a surrounding medium. ...
In the Dimension of Pain, Lord Horribus finds the Spear Calmadar, which turns anyone hit by it into a demon. Torg hires the demon hunter Steve Uozin, a parody of Steve Irwin, to be at this year's Halloween party. Steve is stabbed with the spear and returns to the DoP to torment the denizens. Sasha is introduced as Riff's new girlfriend (whom he never talked about before). Stephen Robert Steve Irwin (February 22, 1962 – September 4, 2006), nicknamed The Crocodile Hunter, was an Australian wildlife expert and television personality. ...
Meanwhile, a group of Santa's old elves mount an expedition to the North Pole in response to a distress call. It turns out Santa has been infected by alien DNA, while Bun-Bun, as the Easter Bunny, is still trying to find a way out of that job. For Christmas, Torg gives Zoë a very fancy necklace he found while in the mummy's tomb. The necklace turns out to be cursed, and turns Zoë into a camel.
2001 Though distracted by Torg's new PlayStation 2, Riff, Torg, and Sasha discover that the speaking the word "Shupid" turns Zoë into a camel and the word "Kwi" turns her back to normal (albeit naked). Zoë takes her revenge by destroying the PS2. “PS2†redirects here. ...
Gwynn then finds herself walking through a surreal landscape, accompanied by a tormenting K'z'k constantly tries to get Gwynn to look behind her. In the real world, Sasha and Torg find Oasis before of Hereti-Corp agents attack and abduct her. Torg returns home to find Gwynn completely possessed by K'z'k and attacking everyone. Internally, Gwynn turns around in her dreamscape to find a vortex to oblivion; she throws K'z'k into it, freeing herself competely and leaving K'z'k in fragments. Torg is injured in the attacks, and is hospitalized—in the same hospital Oasis is in. Torg vistis Oasis there, and while there, Oasis seems to die for a third time.
Torg's web design business goes under, and Aylee starts her own, hiring Torg and Gwynn. Aylee also goes to see a therapist who turns out to be Dr. Schlock, who is looking to clone Aylee into a weapon. Bun-Bun summons up the Groundhog's Shadow in order to find some information about getting rid of the Easter Bunny gig, but is interrupted by Torg.
Riff and Sasha rebuild the DFA, along with a remote that opens a portal home. Riff, Torg, and Bun-Bun go to another dimension, but are zapped by lasers before they can return. The dimension they travelled to is a sci-fi "Punyverse" populated by multiple parodies, including the Voltron parody Gofotron, the Lobo parody Lodoze, and the Darth Vader parody Lord Grater. After a long time and the destruction of the Punyverse, Torg, Riff, and Bun-Bun make their way back home. This article does not cite any references or sources. ...

The three come home to find that Aylee's company is very successful, but security is very tight and no one gets to see Aylee in person anymore. Zoë, whose college grades were suffering, moved back home to Nebraska to finish college. Since the apartment Torg and Riff used to live in was turned into Aylee's office space, the two set out to find a new home. They settle on renting a haunted house before setting to work on getting to meet Aylee. After discovering Aylee has turned into the ultimate evil CEO, Torg invites Aylee to the Halloween party.
At the Halloween party, the demons Isp and Osp arrive (they are attached to a subjugated "main body" together). They become trapped in the basement with Torg, who converses with the main body while Isp and Osp are incapacitated by the fall. Torg asks the demon her name, who, after an ominous pause, scratches "Mosp" out on the wall. Meanwhile, at the party, Aylee paralyzes the guests as a warning to Riff, and leaves.
Afterwards, the mystery of the haunted house is unraveled. However, one ghost is unable to leave for some reason. For Christmas, Bun-Bun invades the hideout of the Alien Santa and prevents an alien invasion.
2002 In Nebraska, Zoë is attacked by Oasis, being guided by the Hereti-Corp agent Kusari. Oasis is completely insane. She is frustrated by her relationship with Torg, she is confused by the way she dies and comes back to life, and she uses Zoë as a scapegoat. She is sent to a mental institution in the end. Torg hears of the attack and rushes off to meet Zoë. Afterwards, he goes off to meet Oasis, and proposes to her in order to keep her from trying to hurt Zoë anymore.
Bun-Bun solicits Gwynn in order to get the Groundhog's shadow off of him, since the Book of E-Ville has Gwynn's name written in it as its owner. Elsewhere, something happened to Zoë: She graduated.
At work, Gwynn spots Aylee eating a coworker and flees from the company. It turns out Hereti-Corp has plans to clone Aylee and create the ultimate weapon. It also turns out Riff was unknowingly helping Hereti-Corp with the project, and blows up one of HC's labs in retaliation. Sasha, Gwynn, and Torg are then kidnapped by HC, and Riff and Bun-Bun set out to get them back, after a quick stop at Schlock's place for exposition. Riff's giant robot leads the attack, and is quickly disabled. However, inside is Oasis, who kills all HC employees on sight. Aylee knocks out Bun-Bun and kills Oasis. Torg and Gwynn escape, and Schlock rescues the other prisoners. Then the real Aylee, a fire-breathing dragon, shows up, states crab-Aylee is really a clone, and helps Torg finally kill crab-Aylee. In an epilogue of sorts, Oasis is shown alive in the woods and decides to try to discover what she is, as opposed to finding Torg.
Afterwards, Sasha moves to Seattle and Zoë moves into the house, returning to the regular cast. For Halloween, Lord Horribus himself arrives and is made into a servant by Gwynn's magic. Torg, Riff, and Zoë are brought back to Wispydale to battle the Satanic kittens again. For Christmas, Bun-Bun discovers that if he kills Santa (whose new weakness is Nerf), he becomes the patron of Christmas.
2003 Ian McDonald of Bruno the Bandit takes over Saturdays, drawing a series called "Meanwhile in the Dimension of Pain." In it, Lord Horribus is sentenced to be the cameraman for Steve Uozin as punishment for not killing Torg. Reakk awakens another dragon of Annoyia, who doesn't breathe flowers but who sings songs like Barney. Bruno the Bandit is a webcomic drawn by Ian McDonald about an incompetent bandit in a fantasy setting. ...
The gang continues to be plagued by low finances and Aylee's constant eating, while discovering a pit beneath the house full of ghosts. The Kesandru House turns out to be an elevator to hell, "with ghosts in the gas tank!". Powered by spirits, it enters the hellish dimension known as the Never - home to the Raythes who feed on ghosts - in order to retrieve the murderous magician Kesandru from imprisonment. Sam shows up, having been unable to leave since the Halloween party, due to the house's spirit-sucking power; his presence screws up the spell, leaving the house trapped in the Blight ("the ass of Hell!"). The gang battles a giant monster before escaping. During this, Gwynn discovers the Book of E'Ville is sentient and in love with her, and that it has made Zoe undetectable by spirits [2].
Zoë gets a boyfriend, Leo, who works as a human cannonball. Torg briefly stalks Leo. Riff gets a job and is transferred to Alaska. Meanwhile in the Dimension of Pain, an angel invades and super deforms all of the demons.

Bun-Bun kills the patron of Halloween, taking over the holiday, and puts Kiki in charge this year; the night revolves less around terror and more around sugar, poinging, and napping. At the Halloween party, a super deformed Reakk shows up, steals a bowl of candy, and disappears, leaving the guests very angry at Torg. Bun-bun moves to take Thanksgiving and Christmas as well as finding the Deus Ex Ovum, which has the power to set the holidays straight. The year 2003 steals the Deus Ex Ovum, and Bun-Bun's shadow kills 2003, which ends in a very short time, forcing Bun-Bun to use the Deus Ex Ovum. Everyone Bun-Bun killed was brought back, and a normal Santa throws Bun-Bun outside of time.

2004 Sam and Torg encounter some vampires of a different circle. The Vykrolakas are mostly defeated, but their elder, Philinnon, remains. Riff returns to the house, and with Torg takes on some odd jobs for cash. Meanwhile in the Dimension of Pain, all the demons are super deformed, but trick the angel into "falling," and into accidentally destroying himself on the Sacred Circle of Protection. Reakk mops up the Sacred Circle against the Demon King's wishes, and, after some power struggles, the DoP demons decide to invade the DoL. Ryu drawn in a super deformed style, from the arcade game Pocket Fighter, known as Super Gem Fighter: Mini Mix in the United States. ...
Alt-Bun-Bun, from the Dimension of Lame, comes to Torg's dimension and reports the demons from the DoP have invaded the DoL. Alt-Bun-Bun takes Torg to the DoL, where he hides out from the demons. Lord Horribus becomes fanatical about finding Torg, and spends most of his time searching him out. Alt-Kiki (who has a bad attitude) and Alt-Riff are turned into demons.
It is revealed that Torg's sword, which he acquired during the Storm Breaker Saga, is able to talk when charged with innocent blood (of which there is an abundance in the DoL). Torg rescues Alt-Zoë from the demons and meets with Alt-Gwynn, who is merged with the alternate Book of E-ville, the "Book of Rothar-Niece". They hide out in the sewers, which the demons won't enter since it smells like flowers. Torg falls in love with Alt-Zoë and spends several months hiding out with her. Lord Horribus doesn't have enough demons to search out Torg and take over the DoL at the same time, so he focuses on finding Torg.
Torg is forced to flee into the DoP with Alt-Zoë and Alt-Bun-Bun, and so he searches out the bag of goodness locked away in the bottom of the Demon King's fridge. Horribus, hearing of this, hunts Torg down and confronts him. Mosp betrays Lord Horribus to repay Torg for his concern about her during the Halloween incident; in a background story, it is revealed that Mosp was denied her name and self-worth as punishment for betraying her people. Horribus, in a rage, kills Mosp and Alt-Zoë. Torg pushes Horribus into a chasm before going on to the Demon King's lair. He and Alt-Bun-Bun rescue Alt-Torg from the Demon King's freezer. Alt-Torg possesses magic arrows similar to Torg's sword; the two free the goddess inside the bag of goodness, who then takes them and flees to the DoL, forces the demons back to the DoP, and closes the portal between them.
It turns out the Torg and Kiki of the DoL had died in one of Alt-Riff's experiments; Alt-Riff, unable to deal with the loss, kidnaps new Torgs from alternate dimensions as an attempt to appease his conscience. The Torg that was rescued (referred to as Alt-Alt-Torg) is not from the DoL, and is egocentric and inconsiderate; he attempts to take the glory of the rescue for himself and refuses to attend Alt-Zoë's funeral. Alt-Riff, still a demon, is forced to lead the other DoL residents who had been turned into demons. Lord Horribus is removed from nobility, and Psyk is given the title of Lord Psykosis. Torg is brought back to his home dimension by the goddess, and experiences a tearful reunion with Zoë.
2005 In early March, Clay Yount of Rob and Elliot replaces Ian McDonald as the Saturday artist, drawing the non-canonical series "Bikini Suicide Frisbee Days": daily gags pertaining to Sluggy's early days. In the main comic, faced with Torg's disappearance, Riff uses the DFA to try to get Torg back, but instead gets a Torg who has many tentacles (in his defense, he was under the influence of psychotropic drugs at the time). He also attempted to clone Torg from his toothbrush, and instead gets a very expensive clone of Torg's toothbrush (which turns out to have been a conjob). The Clonegressive company uses this to take the house as collateral, turning it into an off-site lab. Meanwhile Bun-Bun captains a pirate ship, the Bloody Bun, and sails through timeless space in search of a way back home; he believes it can be found in the legendary Teknokon One, a ship that can escape Timeless Space.
The rest of the main cast engages in multiple parodies, including parodies of the Sony PSP and iPod. Zoe investigates what Clonegressive is up to, getting caught in the middle of their Project Mindswarm going wrong and causing a 28 Days Later parody. Zoe escapes the infected complex along with Meander, the younger sister of Clonegressive's CEO; unknown to her, Meander was subsequently infected by the insectoid demon Chilus, the head of a K'Z'K cult who had been responsible for Mindswarm in a failed attempt to destroy humanity. Accidentally, this could potentially have restarted the Stormbreaker prophecy, and this causes the demon Skip to vow to end Chilus' cult. Meanwhile, Hereti-Corp is now in charge of Burger-Meister and knows the cult is responsible for the death of its member Dan-Met. Meanwhile still, an interlude involving "the Fate Spider" suggests that multiple events and prophecies are beginning to collide.

Torg disappears, along with Kiki, and both are involved in the short story arc "Torg Potter and the President from Arkansas," the third installment of a (usually) annual Harry Potter Parody with little to no bearing on the rest of the strip. Riff, Gwynn, and Zoë receive a strange package, the contents of which would not be revealed to readers until 2006. Beginning (amusingly enough) on Talk Like a Pirate Day, the long-awaited "Oceans Unmoving II" concerns Bun-Bun's attempts to escape Timeless Space, competing for a way home with pirates and Baba Yaga. By skipping his usual holiday break, Abrams broke "Oceans Unmoving II" into two parts and ended 2005 with a "fully canon" flashback entitled "Christmas Ninjas 2002." This short tale occurs before "The Gift" story arc and finds Torg and Riff attempting to raise money for presents by hiring themselves out as ninjas- the two fail, and Riff decides to pursue the course of action that he does in "The Gift." "Oceans Unmoving II" continues in early 2006, and is drawing to a close. This article is about the Harry Potter series of novels. ...
International Talk Like a Pirate Day (ITLAPD) is a parodic holiday invented in 1995 by John Baur (Ol Chum Bucket) and Mark Summers (Capn Slappy), of the United States, who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day when everyone in the world should talk like a pirate. ...

2006 We return to "Oceans Unmoving II" as Bun-bun has his climactic battle with the Obsidian Teknokon. In the end both are flung from the ship into the Oceans Unmoving. In there we discover that the Obsidian Teknokon is actually Bun-bun himself. As hinted earlier in the strip, he had been flung out of time by Santa for the first time before he came to live with Riff and Torg. The Bun-bun we have been following is returned to our regular universe and is bought by Torg bringing him back to the beginning. Meanwhile, Uncle Time (Father Time's brother) refuses to return our Bun-bun until Bun-bun explains how he remembered being before unstuck in time and decided to follow his younger self out. From there the story follows the last survivors of his crew. They find Teknokon One, but Lady Noga seizes the ship and escapes after a short battle, in which Feder, Jaspers, and Stu are killed. Calix, Kada and B.A. start an army, freeing Face and Murdock, and the story ends with their planning an invasion of the port of Madagascar. At the end of "Oceans Unmoving II," Pete announces he has a third part planned but will not release it in the typical Sluggy format. He speculates the story might start production in a year or two, as a possible side project of Sluggy Freelance.
The story resumes some time after the occupants of Brie Meighsaton House receive the package, which contains Flipp (who was thrown from the deck of the Bloody Bun during Blacksoul's attack). Torg has moved out, due to his feelings about Zoë, and Dr. Schlock has apparently moved in. Aylee is still in her coma, and Schlock is investigating her condition. Torg is on a road trip with Bun-bun, hoping to talk with him about his feelings, but Bun-bun seems unreceptive. The next story, "Wayang Kulit" concerns Bun-bun's search for the tome called Wayang, for revenge against the groundhog's shadow; the tome has the power to make the shadow corporeal so that Bun-bun can attack it. However, the Guardian of the True Theater of Shadows banishes Torg, Bun-bun and Kiki to a shadowy world in which each of them must confront their deeper fears, or forever be trapped as a shadow puppet. Bun-bun is shown an image depicting the death of his mother, Kiki is presented with a sandwich that is made entirely of crust, and Torg must confront his fears about Zoë and feelings of guilt at letting alt-Zoë die. Each overcomes their fear; Bun bun shows as usual that he is afraid of very little and conquers his own feelings, and then proceeds to help each of the others conquer their fears so that they can all leave with the Tome. In this process, Torg finally resolves that he must hunt for Oasis before they can have any chance of happiness.
Ten Minutes at a Party revolves around Zoe and her job on a "shock jock" show at a radio station, and Torg and Riff's search for Oasis. Zoe is having trouble at work for belittling one of her co-workers (even though he makes frequent derisive remarks against her) and, when her co-workers fail to show up, insults all of her friends(using pseudonyms) on a show to fill time. She decides to move in with Torg for a while, and finds out that he is trying to locate Oasis. He is doing this with Riff by dressing up as cows and getting information from Grahammy, an elf hiding from Santa at the Neebler factory. Torg and Riff know about him from Bun-Bun. Meanwhile, Gwynn tries to restore her vision and get rid of the need for her ugly glasses by performing a spell, which requires monkeys as an ingredient. Gwynn inadvertently sends them to attack the person whom she is most angry at, which currently is Zoe, while Zoe is at a fancy work related party hosted by her boss. Torg, Riff and Gwynn go to try and stop the monkeys, but one thing leads to another. Gwynn kisses Torg (mistaking him for another boy, since she's near-blind without her glasses), Riff starts a stampede of cows which ruin the party, and Torg starts a fight with a Grahammy look-alike, which turns out to be Zoe's radio co-host Broadman. Broadman celebrates his victory over Riff and Torg, claiming that he "ownz" the cows. Mr. Chalmers believes that he literally owns the cows, and a cow bites the pie on his face before Broadman can say anything else. Broadman is fired, and Zoë now co-hosts the radio show with Migetski.
It is revealed that Oasis is residing in a small town. Oasis is a vigilante, killing anyone and everyone who commits the slightest offence. Oasis and her mysterious trainer Feng, are staying with a single mother, Kareen Zalia, and her daughter Katie. Oasis's work as a vigilante stresses Kareen though her daughter is rather fond of Oasis who becomes her best, and possibly only friend. Oasis speaks to Feng when they train, she tells him all that she can remember except memories of Torg. When Feng mentions Torg's name, Oasis becomes furious and runs away. A reporter named Nash Straw shows up in the town to investigate the secrets of the town starting with the recently robbed liquor store. The local police chief, Officer Tod, arrests him without charge to teach him not to ask questions.
Meanwhile, Bun-Bun sends Grahammy to divert attention from him at Black Ops and retrieve any Naughty Nice records about Oasis. Grahammy presents Bun-Bun with a lead to an orphanage that housed Oasis 18 years earlier. A picture of Oasis is the only documentation of her existence at the orphanage. From the picture Riff and Torg are led to Orsintos Research Center.
Officer Tod beats Nash Straw until he promises not to continue his investigation. While shopping with Katie, Oasis recalls a lost memory of promising Torg never to kill anyone, she then runs away again. Nash hits a local bar and picks up the local therapist named Lupae. The next morning, he wakes up in her home where she reveals all she knows about the vigilante. She tells him that the town was once owned by a Canadian crime syndicate who used it as a drug trafficking hub. In recent years, the mob fell victim to a vigilante who killed every hitman they sent after her. She also reveals that one of her patients, Kareen Zalia, houses the vigilante. Nash is forced to kill Lupae when she stumbles onto the fact that he is not a reporter, but an assassin.
While in the sewers looking for the research center, Riff and Torg receive a phone call from a ghost. The call leads them to a torture chamber with half-burnt papers from a company called Orsintos.
Nash Straw "successfully" snipes Oasis from a tree outside the Zalia residence. He retrieves the body and then goes to the police station for revenge on Officer Tod. Officer Tod fights back with an "obnoxiously powerful cannon" and incendiary grenades. Outside, Nash bumps into Oasis after she has regenerated again. Not knowing what to believe, Nash fights Oasis for a short time. Oasis mentions that she saw him point a gun at Katie's face. (This happened after he shot her in the room in which her dead body lay). Soon after Oasis hides in the trees. Nash then kills officer Tod and finds Katie who had come back with Feng and Kareen when they saw the smoke from the burning police station. He then takes Katie hostage in an effort to get Oasis to attack again. His plan works too well and Oasis almost kills him. Katie is initially horrified by Oasis's actions, but is reconciled in a group hug with Feng, Kareen and Oasis. The next day, however, Oasis reveals to them that she is leaving for an undisclosed destination alone, to resume the task of knowing herself. Nash Straw escapes from the hospital with the connivance of a female doctor and, like Oasis, leaves Podunkton for an unknown destination. Torg and Riff have salvaged boxes of notes from the underground labs and are on their way home when they see a fast-food franchise called "House of Cheese", run by Hereti-Corp. The organisation has used a newly-gained cheese recipe to resurrect itself through a fast food franchise; House of Cheese uses the same logo as Hereti-Corp, intending to provoke Oasis into murderous rages so it can track her.
Zoe, deciding to stay and run her radio show over Christmas, inadvertently alienated herself from her family.
2007 The run of Bikini Suicide Frisbee Days comes to a close and is replaced by No Content on Saturdays, a series of single panel comics that involve very minimal drawing and dialogue.
Torg, Riff and Gwynn spent several days in therapy, allowing Gwynn to move past some of her personal issues regarding the others; aside from Torg, no one is talking to Zoe after she continues to use their exploits for her radio show. Torg has been fired from his job for never turning up. Bun-Bun briefly attempted to use Gwynn's killer monkeys in a terrorist plot, in a 24 parody involving Agent Jack Bowwow. 24 is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning American television series created by Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran, and produced by Imagine Television. ...
February saw the start of its fifty-second chapter Aylee. It's discovered that Aylee has spent the last three years growing into the ground and has achieved giant size; Schlock wakes her up by chipping some DNA from her (believing her to be a threat to humanity), and she inadvertently destroys the house rising out of the ground. Aylee leaves a path of destruction, and is attacked by the military. She and Torg go into hiding using the Dimensional Flux Agitator. Agent Brian Rammer of the Department of National Security is attempting to continues track down Aylee and Doctor Schlock; the Department currently suspects Aylee of being Rithuly, ruler of the Never (see 2003).
Torg and Aylee end up in a Dimension of Ghouls, where an apocalypse occurred five years ago and ravenous ghouls inhabit the bombed out remains of cities. It initially appears to be a world where the Never invaded the planet, while Rithuly himself appears to be tracking Aylee [3], with the apparent intention of taking her as a mate. Eventually Torg and Aylee run into the surviving humans, including this world's Brian Rammer. It's discovered that this world diverged from Sluggy Prime a long time ago and was a high-tech peaceful utopia, which avoided all the sci-fi cliches in the process [4]; humanity has been evacuated to space stations after the ghouls took over. With the discovery Kesandru escaped the Never on this world and his currently President of the United States [5], it appeared the apocalypse had been Never-related. For other uses, see President of the United States (disambiguation). ...
However, in a twist, Torg discovered photos the ghouls had evolved into human-like forms; seeing what the original ghouls looked like, he realised this world had actually been invaded by Aylee's species. The aliens' Hive-King Leono made contact with Aylee, revealing data about her species and showing annoyance with how she'd turn away from her instincts to kill whole planets (which the species believes to be a divine task) and how she'd killed her own kind (she and Torg had squished many ghouls for fun). Aylee mutates into a new form and, driven by a desire for clarity and purpose and to connect with her roots, joined the ghouls in their mission to wipe out the Earth. Torg secretly convinced her that this was morally wrong and she led the Ghouls into a trap, getting them wiped out by the human forces. [6].
From May 14, Clay Yount returned to draw a two-week series, 'Bikini Suicide Sasha Days', while Pete Abrams was on hiatus.
Traditions In an early 1998 plotline, one of Riff's inventions sent Torg to the "Dimension of Pain." Every Halloween since, a different demon is sent to Earth to try to bring him back, failing in amusing and unexpected ways. In 2004, Lord Horribus was deposed by Psykosis, and so it seems that this tradition has ended, since Psykosis does not share Horribus' obsession with Torg (Saturday comics from 2003-2005 took place in either the Dimension of Pain or, later on, in one of the other "associated" Dimensions). Halloween, or Halloween, is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31, most notably by children, who, in a tradition commonly known as trick-or-treating, dress in costumes and go door-to-door to collect sweets, fruit, and other gifts. ...

Bun-Bun and Santa Claus try to kill each other every Christmas, with continuously escalating violence; the fact that Bun-Bun became the Easter Bunny early on in the strip merely adds spice to the relationship. In New Year's Day of 2004, Bun-Bun was trapped in the timeless void by St. Nick, and therefore unable to battle him that year or in 2005. In 2006, Bun-Bun launched a blue and pixy stix-charged Kiki at Santa's sleigh. The resulting impact ended up shredding Santa's gift bag, strewing all of the world's presents over a highway.

Also every Christmas/Hanukkah, Torg and Riff have attempted to continue their own, private tradition of giving each other "a beer every year."

Every New Year's Eve storyline, Bun-bun gets drunk on 151 Rum, which often results in him being uncharacteristically kind and courteous (such as apologizing to Torg or praising the main cast). He might have done so as Overlord Bun-bun, had the theft of the Deus Ex Ovum not forced him to pursue the thief. There also is no evidence of his continuing this tradition in Timeless Space, where there's no time anyway.
Weekend Fillers
Meanwhile in the Dimension of Pain Between January 18, 2003 and February 26, 2005, each Saturday's comic was written and drawn by guest artist Ian MacDonald of Bruno the Bandit. These strips chronicled the ongoing events in the Dimension of Pain, occasionally switching to the Dimension of Grief or Hell. Ian's work proved to be controversial among fans of the strip and led to a hostile climate towards guest artists. As the series went on, reactions towards most strips became negative and often rude. The conflict primarily stemmed from the fact that Ian and Pete have very different styles. There was also the general impression that Ian was adding canon material which included characters acting in uncharacteristic behavior. Another criticism against the series was Ian's tendency to rely on gags, sexual situations, parodies, and other low brow humor. is the 18th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Yount's strips take place at an indeterminate point between April and August of 1998, and center on the main characters. The strips are named after an early storyline, The Bikini-Suicide-Frisbee Match, emphasizing the light-hearted characteristic of Sluggy's early years. While it still remains to be seen what the ultimate reaction will be to Yount's Saturday comics, so far the results have been almost unanimously positive. Yount's filler strips have been officially declared "non-canon" in an effort to solve some of the problems with Ian's work and the climate it produced.
For a period of time in May 2007, Yount was invited to provide filler for the comic while Abrams cared for his newborn baby, and he reprised his previous Saturday arc, this time calling it "Bikini Suicide Sasha Days."
No Content on Saturdays As of 2006-11-02, Clay Yount announced on Rob and Elliot that he would be quitting as the Saturday artist by the end of the year in order to focus on a new comic he is creating, called Cosmobear. On 2007-01-06, filler art announced that there would be no content on Saturdays thenceforth. With certain exceptions, all Saturday comics since then (including guest comics, except for 2007-06-02 which was drawn by T Campbell and Gisèle Lagacé of Penny and Aggie) have reflected "No Content on Saturdays." With the exceptions of the Saturdays that have fallen during extended guest appearances, the first of these "No Content on Saturdays" comics have focused on Kiki becoming very excited and enthusiastic about "No Content." However, the filler comic has evolved to the point where "No Content" is a misnomer. Recent "No Content on Saturdays" arcs have involved a dream sequence in which the "No Content" came to life and wanted to be Kiki's "bestest friend" (only to be killed when playing sharp pointy stick tag), and Kiki being shipped to Siberia while sleeping. The last complete "No Content" story arc has focused on the journeys of "Kiki of Siberia," and the comic for 2007-08-11 was titled, "uh...Content on Saturdays?" with Kiki complaining that Saturday comics would be containing content over the next few weeks, presumably to prepare readers for the 10th anniversary comic on 2007-08-25, which falls on a Saturday.

Sketch Sundays In May 2007, Pete Abrams began posting sketches on Sundays. This decision was unpopular. However, in a news update on May 18th - 22nd (entitled "Sketch Sundays make Sluggy Better! It's Official!"), Pete Abrams stated that this method of Sunday comic pseudo-filler will continue until he sees fit to revert to the old system of full-colour Sunday specials.
Other guest strips and crossovers Abrams invites other well-known webcomic artists to do the strip for a week once or twice a year, while he goes on vacation. A frequent result is a parody of the strip itself, other webcomics, other creative works and/or artists, including Scooby-Doo and Ayn Rand. Clay Yount of Rob and Elliot was guest artist several times prior to taking over Saturday duties. In contemporary usage, a parody (or lampoon) is a work that imitates another work in order to ridicule, ironically comment on, or poke some affectionate fun at the work itself, the subject of the work, the author or fictional voice of the parody, or another subject. ...

Baen SF author John Ringo was profoundly affected by Sluggy while writing his Legacy of the Aldenata series; as a result, the crew of a massive mobile artillery platform that first appears in the third book of this series (When the Devil Dances) are depicted as die-hard Sluggy fanatics to comedic effect (up to, and including, naming their vehicle after Bun-Bun and painting a giant picture of Bun-Bun on it). They are joined in the fourth book (Hell's Faire), by a character based on the late friend of Pete Abrams who was the inspiration for Riff. A section of original Sluggy comics set in the alternate future world of the novels appears in the end of Hell's Faire, and a sampler of Sluggy storylines is included on the CD-ROM bound into this book. Pete possibly returned the favor shortly thereafter by entitling one subchapter "Hell's Unfair." Another possible Sluggy reference is in the short story "Lets Go to Prague" where one character uses the codeword Kizke. This is the common mispronunciation of the demon K'z'k,(no vowels in the proper pronunciation).
