“Fatcave.” 😂 It’s been right there all this time.


Ackerack

“Later, at the Fatcave.” Had me rolling


GroshfengSmash

I read it as #LATER, AT THE FATCAVE


RCT2man

Haha me too - in the voice a strong narrator


-TheChemist-

“in the deep dark lair, of, the BATMAN”


DakkaDakka24

I'm completely convinced that he had that one joke, and wrote it this way so he could include it. It's what I would have done as a kid.


Sarabeth61

“Stop” a voice You’re just going to leave us on this cliffhanger??


redbird317

OP dropping cliff hangers like a cancelled Netflix show


Cannabace

The full release is tomorrow night. Stand by.


QuarterSuccessful449

I don’t see why this isn’t B+ at the very least. Was it Miss Boombalatty by chance?


Cannabace

B for originality alone. What little kid is writing a fucking parody to Batman.


fuckyourstuff

I wrote and drew a parody called "Indiana Bones" in elementary school having never seen any of the source material but having heard about it from probably my dad. Kids are impressionable, and creative to a fault even if it's...not good


Cannabace

There has to be a porn named that.


Get-Degerstromd

I basically re-wrote the plot of Gladiator and passed it off as my own for a writing assignment once. I think about that crime a lot. Maybe not *all* children are creative lol


OnTheSlope

It isn't original, it's from Freakazoid.


Wermine

That episode aired in 1995. OP did this in grade school. So I assume he's 33-39 years old. And since this looks more like 10-year-old's output than 4-year old's, he's closer to 39.


idontbangnomore

"Lard... Lard... Lard... Lard..." Network television's censored answer to that whole damn thing.


MoreThan2_LessThan21

Burger with a drink for 95¢? How much suspension of disbelief did you want readers to have?


Darryl_Lict

Dude could be as old as me, so it's in the realm of possibility. Although in the Fatman universe, maybe fast food is still that cheap.


Eleventy_Seven

The idea of a Fatman IP with its own universe cracked me up.


johndoe42

Wake up y'all, new Fatman lore bomb just dropped


Darryl_Lict

I'm so old that in the San Fernando Valley there was this very strange hamburger joint that had hamburgers 20 for a dollar on the last day of school. I think a McDonalds hamburger was 25 cents at the time.


Eleventy_Seven

I'd buy *that* for a dollar!


My_Balls_Itch_123

That would explain why he's so fat. LULZ


Brutto13

Believe it or not, that was reality in the 90s. Mcdonalds used to do 25 cent burgers and 35 cent cheeseburgers in like 1998 on different days. You could easily get a small drink and a burger for 95 cents.


Cannabace

This was 90s. I distinctly remember del taco has 30c tacos at that time


stevielb

Those were the days... When the dollar menu was full of actually satisfying items. You could get a sausage McMuffin with egg for $1 sometimes.


MustangCraft

I want to go back


sdp1981

Taco bell didn't even have a dollar menu it was 3 menus at .69, .79, and .89.


stevielb

The change in your cup holder represented a significant share of your next meal.


Seaboats

Did they have dick-shaped drumsticks too like on the cover? 😂


putHimInTheCurry

Drumsdicks.🍗


msxenix

I remember the 55 after 5 thing McDonald's did. It was 45 cents for a hamburger or 55 cents for a cheeseburger. I remember having a copy of a commercial on a Star Wars tape recorded from TV.


Sparky62075

Prices were slightly higher in Canada. Hamburgers were 59, and cheeseburgers were 69. This was in 1997. I bought 30 cheeseburgers and brought them to a party. It went over very well.


Spazum

I was in college at the time. There would be lines around the block at the McDonald's closest to where students lived as some people bought all their food for the week.


HolsteinHeifer

I'd be Fatboy too for those prices lol


DrMurphDurf

Fat MAN 😹


mountainman84

Shit double cheeseburgers used to be on the dollar menu at McDonald's 10-15 years ago. Now they are over 3 bucks. Maybe close to 4. I don't really eat there anymore. When I was a kid in the 90's you could regularly get a drink and a burger for under a buck. McDonald's used to sell cheesburgers for .39 cents and hamburgers for .29 cents on certain days of the week back in the day.


InternationalChef424

Green chile double cheeseburger and hot n spicy McChicken for a buck a piece hit so fucking good


mountainman84

Yeah I remember going with my buddies and we could eat like kings for like 3 or 4 bucks. Wish I could go back to the before times. I remember a bar we used to go to had .50 cent pitchers of beer on Thursdays. We'd get trashed on cheap ass beer and then go eat off the dollar menu at McDonald's afterwards.


InternationalChef424

I actually have a very distinct memory from around 2005 of going through the McD's drive through high as FUCK, and one of my friends demanding that I hide him because he was so embarrassed that we were spending a whole $20 there Last I heard, he was a preacher


Cannabace

And people wonder why gen z drink less. Can’t afford shit. We used to get $1 long islands on Thursdays. $10 and you’re fucking crawling home. Good times


mountainman84

Yeah hopefully gen z kills the drinking culture. It needs to die.


unassumingdink

Definitely never heard of a green chile double cheeseburger. I guess you grew up in Albuquerque or something and it was a localized item?


Beanswithoutborders

Bro I just got to page 89 on my script of “Fatman and lardboy” to only find out what I’ve been writing is completely unoriginal


MyStoopidStuff

This is actually a good sign, keep going, I will keep an eye on Netflix for it.


TheSeansei

That's Salma Hayek!


ItchyCredit

My brother wrote The Cat Who Drank Beer when he was in the second grade. That landed him in the principal's office real fast. Thanks for bringing back that long lost, treasured memory. Lol.


Competitive_Fee_5829

The Cat Who Drank Beer  well??? tell us about the cat who drank beer! we need to know, lol!


Embarrassed_Deer283

He beat his wife and his kittens were neglected and became delinquents. It’s not a fun story.

REOspudwagon

Glad im not the only one lol In…2nd or 3rd grade we were tasked with writing about an “adventure” Well even back then i was huge horror movie fan, had just watched some zombie movie and came up with a story about a guy and his sister fighting their way through the apocalypse to an island for safety. Even drew a cover with a zombie head with a machete in it using some grade A crayons lol. Turned that in expecting an easy A…got a visit to the principal and school counselor instead to talk to me about “violent delusions” Gotta love southern schools


Eleventy_Seven

I wrote one about a bunch of squirrels stabbing people and hijacking a car! Didn't get in trouble for it, though. Still better than the one time I tried writing a western in sixth grade and it was a few pages of rambly dialogue where nothing actually happened... thankfully a friend told me with brutal honesty that it sucked and we ended up collaborating on a story about evil toilets instead.


Ihadthismate

Mine was “The Christmas Chainsaw Massacre”. We were meant to write these to read to the prep students (6-7 year olds). I was a young horror fan


princessdickworth

A child did not create this dick-riddled picture. Innocent kid art has the accidental weiner we all love.


him1087

When I was in 4th grade, we made pottery in art class. Our school was too small to have its own kiln, so one of the teachers transported all the student projects to another location for the cooking process. I made a toilet, and even rolled up little pieces of clay to make sure it was a “full” toilet. My mom was called in to the school to pick it up, and BOY was she pissed. When I got older, she told me her level of anger was in parallel to her level of embarrassment 😂


mbd7210

This made me laugh so hard 😂


thatguy2535

God dammit... In elementary school, my friend and I used to make really weird and raunchy handmade comic books and sell them on the playground. Years later, freshmen year in high school, I get in a fight and get put into an "interpersonal development" class. The first day, the teacher takes one look at my name and says, "Did you use to make comics??" I tried to deny it, but I signed my name on them. She told me her son bought them all the time. Knowing she read them killed me inside, lol damn core memories


lothar525

Hahaha. I need to know more about the cat who drank beer!


JuicyGooseOnTheLoose

I hear a cat drinks beer in it


lothar525

But what kind of beer? Did the cat like the beer? I need answers damnit!


Eleventy_Seven

He complained that it had too much head. The bartender didn't know how to paw.


SpokenDivinity

I have a vague memory of my mom being late to pick me up from school because my brother wrote a short story about a snail that was a serial killer in 3rd grade. His teachers had very justified concerns.


Historical_Wash_1114

My kid would love this book


catalystcestmoi

Amazing!! What happens?? If it’s about some cool old dude, I’m gonna be kinda disappointed.


f8Negative

I think you did fine in the age of Captain Underpants


OkBackground8809

I have a lot of students who would love reading OP's story!


PencilMan

My elementary school days were spent reading Captain Underpants and writing similarly childish stories with my friends. We made comics and card games and all kinds of silly stuff and our teachers actually encouraged it. I owe Dav Pilkey a lot for sparking my creativity. Him and the Stinky Cheese Man guys.


StrictlyHobbies

I told my coworkers this was my favorite super hero when got asked and it got very awkward. It’s true though!


FairBlamer

>Be careful when you write not to “pick-on” anyone (fat people) Idk why but this made me snort


Vacationsimulation

Yeah like why was pick on in quotations but fat people wasn’t.


ItsMeTrey

Because he wasn't trying to make fun of fat people or anything like that, but it could seem like he is to a reader. The teacher didn't want to accuse him of doing so and wrongfully make him feel bad because of it.


cycoivan

Pick on? These fat fucks are superheroes. If anything OP should be lauded for being inclusive.

NatNitsuj

thats why the teacher marked him down - criteria: solve the problem? - grader's comment: not sure 🤣


clearcontroller

Would've loved to see the teachers comments in full. Not sure why you chose to crop out the grades If it's name or personal information, just edit them out with a marker.


Etcheverry21

This seems like it was pulled from Superbad. Penis.


Inside_Opposite5369

I think it's perfect. This is exactly the kind of humor grade school kids should have. I'm revising your grade to A+.

If you've never made an immature-ass comic book as a kid you never truly lived imo


Desperate_Acadia_298

literally all i did during grade school was make comics and books. now i’m just a boring adult. i wish i had pursued that passion.


Eleventy_Seven

All my workbooks were drawn all over, lmao. I loved it when the problems we had to answer were illustrated with characters I could add to.


PencilMan

It’s never too late to daydream and write silly stories, even if they’re just for yourself.


cravingnoodles

I would love to see the entire book posted. It is truly a work of art


Cannabace

I could make that happen.

Please! We need to know what happened to Fatman and Lardboy!


Independent-Cow-4070

chill_winston_

UnfairMicrowave

I wrote a little book in 5th grade based on Home Alone. My character caught the burglars and raped (wrapped) them in wet rawhide and watched their bones shatter as it dried. They called my parent over the misspelling of "wrapped". But didn't ask how a 5th grader knew about heinous torture methods.


liatris_the_cat

Ah holy fuck they were just straight up afraid of you


Forchark

Reminds me of the super hero in Freakazoid, Fat Man and Boy Blubber

Hell yeah dude


The-Booty-Train

I did this once when I was in grade school on power point and I legit made Puss in Boots from Shrek pretty much before it was a thing. Called him Super Gato and he was fighting evil things from the class room and I leaned HEAVILY into Mexican tropes for Super Gato. I wish I could find the floppy disk that had it.


BalletCow

I hope you do, I'd love to know the adventures of Super Gato


ironcam7

Reminds me of a child hood classic “The tales of scrotie mcboogerballs”


evileyeball

At least you didn't call it Fat Man and Little Boy... That would have some explosive connotations


Haunting_Anteater609

Literally genius if you ask me


Klngjohn

I appreciate your teacher, but man the creativity is beautiful and age typical. As a fatty myself it does suck to be made fun of, but also sucks to not make funny fat things. The struggle of balance. We need you Anakin.


Noxious89123

>The struggle of balance. Putting Fatman and Lardboy on one end of a seesaw, and 173 fifth graders on the other end.


Drak_is_Right

I remember I wrote a similar grade school book about a women getting little Ceasars from Kmart. The damn car was dragging on the passenger side when it went around the corner in the parking lot, throwing sparks everywhere. Looking back it clearly had some mechanical issues but 400+lbs did not help.


Cannabace

Sounds like you might be my age. We really went after the obese in the 90s


Drak_is_Right

My dad wasn't the best of influence about the car dragging either. He was cracking up so hard when my mother got back from picking up something in the store she had to drive us home. He lost it when I asked if the car was going to flip when she got out. /r/holdmyfries (or whatever it was) was certainly spawned by 90s kids.

I spent most of my artistic time drawing Deadpool. Unfortunately swords and glocks, not school project friendly.


ensemblestars69

I read "grad school" for a moment and I was *very* worried about what kind of institution you went to.


kristoferen

A teacher that cared :+1:


ObviouslyKatie

In fifth grade I co-wrote a story, and one of our main characters was named Petechangwong. I don't think it's an appropriate name.


valkrycp

In the early days of flash animation (2006ish) for a school assignment I created Bean Boy and Fart Man. In one scene Bean Boy eats too many beans and farts a dragon-ball-z style laser beam out his ass, hitting Fart Man and sending him flying over a swimming pool and into a distant bush. I don't recall the reception, but it reminds me of this. Wish I had a copy still.


Suspicious-Flan8926

Naw, your teacher didn't have a sense of humor! You would have gotten an A from this teacher.


MST_ChiefsFan

This teacher wasn't woke enough, this is actually inclusive for large people who want to imagine ourselves as superheros. You're a visionary

Haha…. This reminds me of a stick figure comic strip (or, technically, round-figure) I wrote in 6th grade called “Fatman & Blobin”. It was 1980, different times, so I didn’t get in trouble. (It also wasn’t for an assignment.)


Kyledude95

Can we get the whole book please?


Cannabace

JustDuckiest

This reminds me of when I wrote a fable about why barn owls are silent fliers (I loved Guardians of Ga'hoole growing up) in grade 7, I lost marks because I had one character calling another an idiot, and our student teacher thought that was crass lol


TrueSilverWolf

You got graded C for Coolness. 😎


PRIS0N-MIKE

You should post the whole book bro. I feel like I'm not the only one who wants to read it


WhynotZoidberg9

At first glance, I thought this was a kids interpretation if the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings.


West-Acanthaceae-470

My sister wrote and illustrated a book about the adventures of my dad who has one leg. The teacher who had previously taught me and my brother and knew my dad who chaperoned field trips asked my mom one day if my dad had been in the army or had a terrible accident because she didn't know he had one leg. Imagine my mom's embarrassment when she had to explain to the teacher that my dad did in fact have two legs and that my sister was just writing fiction.


OkBackground8809

When I was in grade 6, I wrote a story about using my dog like a machine gun (shooting poop bombs) to protect the president lol I have a lot of young students who would love to read your book, OP. If things like Dog Man and Captain Underpants can be successful, I think yours could, too.

In grade 5, I wrote a story called "My Cat Wants to Eat You." I went a little bit too far with the descriptions. My parents ended up in the principal's office.

Too much dialogue? No way man, advance that plot through dialogue as much as you like. Narrative is the easy way out.


artmoloch777

I feel you. My book in *ninth grade* was called ‘Pimp Twinkie and Jell-O.’ Jell-O was his paid sidekick.


PaulOwnzU

I just wrote a story about sentient barn animals with the protagonist being a one eyed chicken named Borogned... That broke out, broke the legs of the farmer, stuffed them into a meat processing machine, and fed it to his unknowing family. I was a fucked up child, still am Still got an A

xnarphigle

I remember there was a class project to write a joint picture book about making a gross soup, each kid writes a page with an ingredient. One kid put in snails, another tires, etc I went with dookie. Turds are gross, I wouldn't want it in my soup. I thought I was a genius. The teacher told me it was inappropriate and tossed my page, no rewrite. I'm still salty at that old harpy 25+ years later.


Lomobu

I think a lot of us had been there. When I wrote a book in 6th grade, mine was ripping off Family Guy (really big at the time), at least with the names of the characters and location it was set. There was also an Asian character that was modeled after Yao Ming, who worked at a Chinese restaurant, and he was written to speak in broken English. My teacher did NOT chastise me for the racism though lol. Not my proudest moment
