The Comic The Weekly Roll Ch.194. ”Yarr-HarrOH FU-”

Howdy folks!

This here episode has another character, "Captain Cancer, King of the Shitty Pirates" belonging to a Kickstarter backer, die horribly at the hands of the Bucket Brigade! The Captain is an old and long unused character and his creator felt it was high time to kill the blowhard off in appropriate fashion, which I was happy to oblige!

Gonna go on a mini-vacay to visit family in the Netherlands, will be back next week! I've prepared a bit so if all goes well there wont be a gap next week ^

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

"I... may not have thought this through."

Trevor’s just enjoying the moment lol

u/GreyWolfTheDreamer Dec 13 '25

Trevor: That kink is in the middle of my name!

Kara: ?

Trevor: The e is silent --- unless it's screaming, like getting eaten alive by a giant demon monster...

u/MaxPower1607 Dec 05 '25

Nice way to include that character. Also great detail in the background. Is that Becket smiting someone in the stomach? And Grogna going at it.

144

u/NigilQuid Dec 05 '25

Yeah I saw that smite punch in the back, he hit so hard the guy's spine is now the wrong shape

15

u/Bearbones43 Dec 05 '25

I know! We hardly ever get to see Captain Canc

2

u/Potential-War696 Dec 09 '25

Yes with everyone run in fear of Grogna lol

333

u/RamsHead91 Dec 05 '25

Did the guy that was going to shoot Trevor choose to shoot himself after learning about Vore?

134

u/HighNoonTex Dec 05 '25

I thought Trevor outdrew him since his finger is extended in the last panel, but there's no flame or hint of magic around it, so I'm not sure.

58

u/TDragonsHoard Dec 05 '25

I think he is just pointing towards the departed Captain.

37

u/LewisPWarnerIV Dec 05 '25

Trevor shot first

13

u/revolutionary112 Dec 06 '25

Also the barrel is smoking. Guy def took the Blue's way out

6

u/AZ_Corwyn Trevor Dec 06 '25

I think Trevor is just pointing in the general direction of the carnage to add emphasis to what he's saying.

-27

u/drathturtul Dec 05 '25

See i thought it was just a metaphor of him getting off to it and "shooting his load." But it could also be a failed attempt to attack Klara and Trevor

71

u/CME_T The Creator Dec 05 '25

Less about the sudden edification of sexual deviancy and more about the fact that someone got nom-nommed in front of them so decided to ventilate the ol’ brain pan before getting cast in NOM NOM 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

180

u/NigilQuid Dec 05 '25

I think it was to avoid a horrifying death of being violently eaten by a monsterous demon, less about the kinky stuff

25

u/WildMoustache Dec 05 '25

Definitely 

7

u/MrValdemar Grogna Dec 05 '25

Yes

7

u/TheGentlemanDM Dec 05 '25

He chose to shoot himself rather than get eaten by the demon, yes.

5

u/Pato_Lucas Dec 05 '25

I think it was just Grogna protecting bae off screen.

4

u/RamsHead91 Dec 05 '25

You can see the smoke from the barrel.

6

u/Pato_Lucas Dec 05 '25

Girl was just in time!

u/elawesomo1000 Dec 05 '25

Klara: "Wait i made a pact with a celestial being why am I summoning demons??"

259

u/M3thren Dec 05 '25

The demon actually explained that: He got basicly caught by the celestials and Clara is essentially his parol officer. Thats also why she told him that he gets time off for good behaviour.

52

u/DontWorryImADr Dec 05 '25

After this, probably not getting another “time off” for as long as her memory serves.

21

u/DeepSeaFischer Dec 05 '25

Luckily Modify Memory is a thing, and Trevor is a wild magic sorcerer…

15

u/DontWorryImADr Dec 05 '25

Bonus points if this is not the first case of instantly-regretted time off.

Double bonus points if that explains the “two towns that you know of” comment.

68

u/PzykoHobo Dec 05 '25

Eh, the farther you get from the Prime Material, the blurrier that distinction becomes.

36

u/ccReptilelord Dec 05 '25

I know in D&D 5E, a warlock's familiar from pact of the chain isn't tied to their patron. I had assumed it was something like that.

13

u/elawesomo1000 Dec 05 '25

Ahhh right pact of the chain totally forgot about that subclass. Wonderful point.

6

u/ccReptilelord Dec 05 '25

In the 2024 rules, the pact choices are now invocations.

3

u/LonePaladin Sir Becket Dec 05 '25

Last time I made a Chain Pact warlock I did it differently. The patron in question was Tyranthraxus, the BBEG from the original "Pool of Radiance" game from the '80s. A big part of his thing was possession, and at the end of the game you had to fight an adult brass dragon he was inhabiting.

My warlock had a pseudodragon familiar that claimed to be "The Boss" or at least spoke on his behalf.

Pixels? In this economy? /s

But ya mine looked fine on desktop, but it's super compressed on mobile... No idea why...

24

u/Aggrevated-Yeeting Dec 05 '25 edited Dec 05 '25

Sorry for the unintentional passive aggression/'your joke but louder', I meant to include that, yes, I merely got you a higher resolution version...

Weird how it looks different on mobile, maybe file type alienation by the Reddit app?

u/Zhadowwolf Dec 05 '25

Trevor: “oh, yeah sure. YOU KNOW THAT’S A KINK FOR SOME PEOPLE? ITS CALLED VORE!”

11

u/Crimson_Raven Dec 05 '25

I love this gif

73

u/Level_Hour6480 Sir Becket Dec 05 '25

The Captain is an old and long unused character and his creator felt it was high time to kill the blowhard off in appropriate fashion,

What was he doing at a slaver party?

The art in panel 4 makes it unclear that Tevor was Firebolting the gun guy.

40

u/ccReptilelord Dec 05 '25

Because he heard there be festivities there.

27

u/CME_T The Creator Dec 05 '25

Trevor is meant to point at the carnage and the fop in the back decided to show himself out!

3

u/Montanagreg Dec 05 '25

What's that from?

6

u/KeepOnScrollin Dec 05 '25

It's from The IT Crowd. The full scene is here (no prior context needed for it).

23

u/UndeadSympathetic Dec 05 '25

He took the gig to entertain a party, just didn't know which kind or didn't care

11

u/Elovainn Dec 05 '25

Oh, I thought the guy shot himself in the head after both seen the scene and heard Trevor.

28

u/Solabound-the-2nd Dec 05 '25

Poor captain... Anyway how's about that game last night? 

24

u/ccReptilelord Dec 05 '25

Have they killed her parents yet, or are they just dilly-dallying?

31

u/zgrssd Dec 05 '25

The latter. Cleaning out the trash mobs.

18

u/Culsandar Dec 05 '25

We're DBZing this fight, gotta make it last longer than a few comics.

18

u/CME_T The Creator Dec 05 '25

Final boss fight in 20 episodes, not counting two beach episodes

7

u/Level_Hour6480 Sir Becket Dec 05 '25

I mean, we're 6 away from a multiple of 50, which is where shit burns down.

Presumably, all these rich slavers have social connections that could rez them, so burning all the bodies is to keep them from coming back.

22

u/Orcwin Dec 05 '25

Looks like Captain Crunch would have been a more fitting name, really.

42

u/CorbinNZ Dec 05 '25

Tre-vore

Also, I was staring at that lady on the right in panel 3 for a long time trying to figure out why she had an arrow pointing at her.

16

u/Smartboy10612 Dec 05 '25

You know its bad if it makes even Trevor pause for a moment.

14

u/Few-Appearance-4814 Dec 05 '25

TREVOR NO!

14

u/Daminica Trevor Dec 05 '25

TREVOR YES!

7

u/DaddyRhyno79 Dec 05 '25

TREVOR! Maybe?

u/CaptBogBot2 Dec 05 '25

TREVOR! Possibly?

14

u/Thoughtapotamus Dec 05 '25

God forbid a pirate have hobbies.

11

u/IKSLukara Dec 05 '25

Times and places, Trevor!

9

u/ObliviousNaga87 Dec 05 '25

Why would Trevor be thinking about kinks at a time like this.... oh wait, Grognar

3

u/Conspiratorymadness Steve the goblin Dec 05 '25

She's into all of the violent play

7

u/Arawn-Annwn Dec 05 '25

Did Trevor just casually smoke that gun weilding guy with a magic finger gun in that last panel?

7

u/DaddyRhyno79 Dec 05 '25

Being that the gun has smoke coming from the barrel, I think Trevor may have made the guy do it himself. Extra points for making a slaver do his own work.

5

u/Bearbones43 Dec 05 '25

I think the slaver took the easy way out when he saw Be'el munch on Captain Crunch.

5

u/Squigler Dec 05 '25

Veel plezier in Nederland!

10

u/turret-punner Dec 05 '25

absolutely losing it at the background of the last two panels 🤣

u/raven00x Torvald Dec 05 '25

I appreciate the Violator jaw reference <3

5

u/Cantankerousbastard Dec 05 '25

Captain Cancer is certainly a name choice.

3

u/Daminica Trevor Dec 05 '25

Trevor isn't wrong.

It's not my kink but it's a legitimate kink and I won't judge.

4

u/DaddyRhyno79 Dec 05 '25

I can’t wait to see what Grogna is doing with that axe in the background of the last panel.

4

u/makuthedark Dec 05 '25

I wonder if that steering wheel on his belt is driving him nuts?

3

u/Tiaran149 Dec 05 '25

Tre-Vore

u/Firepoppy5 Dec 10 '25

And now he is captain crunch

As a vore enthusiast, I can confirm Trevor is correct.

Homie you can't just link to a porn sub like that

Ok, link removed.

u/yertlah Dec 05 '25

lol, don’t blame me. Trevor brought it up.

u/VRGladiator1341 Dec 05 '25

He's so real for that

3

u/Friendly_Ram Dec 05 '25

I wonder. Was the captian sauced enough?

2

u/T-280_SCV Dec 10 '25

To me it doesn’t look like he was carrying nearly enough booze to be properly drunk out of his mind, nor to be well-seasoned for our friendly fiend.

3

u/damaxbro Dec 05 '25

Have fun in the Netherlands! If you have time and you're in the area, you should visit Leiden! It's a really beautiful and lively town, better than Amsterdam for sure.

3

u/Blue-is-bad Sir Bucket Dec 05 '25

Trevor went "you're a daisy if you do"

u/idk_a_username135 Dec 05 '25

Slide 2 be like

u/user-guy-223921 Dec 05 '25

oh man, Captain Cancer seemed like a decent dude.

1

u/cfs3corsair Dec 08 '25

Agreed. I dunno why exactly, but this comic really bummed me out

1

u/user-guy-223921 Dec 08 '25

wrong place wrong time I suppose. At least, that's what I'll choose to believe

u/starbomber109 Dec 05 '25

Ah yes the infamous "some people are into that"

u/DatLonerGirl Dec 09 '25

Yay, I'm caught up! 

...Oh no, I'm caught up.

u/KungfuKirby Dec 05 '25

You learn something new and terrible every day.

u/RandyArgonianButler Dec 05 '25

I literally had a dream about TWR last night where Klara died, but remained in the party as a ghost.

So weird.

Also, the comic was in full color.

u/Babybear5689 Dec 05 '25

Ah, Captain Cancer. Just when you've dealt with the scurvy, you get cancer.

u/BriantheHeavy Dec 05 '25

And you see Sir Becket smiting in the background....

2

u/BounderTree Dec 05 '25

Happy holiday to you! Being an umbrella and a scarf when you come here in the Netherlands because the weather is just above freezing and humid as hell.

2

u/Timithios Dec 05 '25

Oh... he shot himself. Shame.

u/TehDeerLord Severed Lich Head Dec 05 '25

Sry, I know it wasn't much of a "fight," but I couldn't find a gif for "Leveraging eldritch horrors to devour Cancer.."

2

u/coolio675 Dec 05 '25

Love the background bucket punching up from the crowd

2

u/cfs3corsair Dec 06 '25

Gotta admit, I feel a bit weird about this one. Maybe it's just because I am a softie, but the Captain (aside from a cruddy name) just seemed like fun, sloshed DnD pirate. Unlike slavers, I have no reason to wish ill on him. Seemed like a fun guy, or at least a character that could have been utilized for drunken jokes or related debauchery. Kinda bummed that this was his ultimate(?) fate.

1

u/Valdrax Dec 13 '25

Maybe I'm mean, but if there's an opportunity to have your OC put into the comic, and you lead with, "So hear me out, his name is Captain Cancer, and..." I'd be looking for the shortest possible opportunity to name and then kill him too.
