FoxTrot comic strip by Bill Amend - "The X-prise V" published May 27, 2012 - Peter: What kind of rocket ship is THAT?? Jason: Pretty great, huh? It has the base of a Saturn-V, the midsection is from the USS Enterprise, and the nose cone is an X-Wing fighter. Peter: Let me guess...you want it to fly to the moon at warp speed and if the moon turns out to be a death star, you'll be ready. Jason: Actually, we just thought watching it spiral out of control would be funny. Peter: In that case, forget I said anything. Jason: No, no I kinda LIKE your idea. Marcus: Here, cram in a few more engines.

Marcus: Eat a ton of candy...maybe that'll turn you green, at least.

FoxTrot comic strip by Bill Amend - "The jPad 3" published March 4, 2012 - Jason: I need a new marketing department. Andy: Oh? Jason: I unveiled the new jPad 3 and there's no buzz whatsoever! If you go to the tech blogs, it's all iPad, iPad, iPad! Look at these features: it's made from 100 percent recycled cardboard, so it's environmentally friendly...it has a zero-inch screen, which gives it a theoretical pixel density of infinity... and if you have a pencil with an eraser, you can play unlimited free games of tic-tac-toe and hangman on it! I even have it priced at a crazy low $49! Andy: That still seems pretty high. Jason: I'll have you know in a head-to-head matchup, the jPad would literally smash the iPad. Andy: You misused the word "literally". Jason: Did I? Andy: Why is there a rock taped to the back?

FoxTrot comic strip by Bill Amend - "Lukewarm Skywalker" published January 22, 2012 - Peter: I'm surprised you haven't started playing that new Star Wars MMO yet. Jason: As a purist, I'm holding out until they add ewoks and gungans and endless talk of midichlorians. The way it stands right now, I find it hard to believe George Lucas was even involved with the game. Peter: I can't tell if you're serious or kidding. Jason: I hear you can even shoot first if you want! It's heresy, I say!

FoxTrot comic strip by Bill Amend - "Modest Revisions" published December 18, 2011 - Paige: What are you doing? Jason: Revising my Christmas list. I overheard Mom and Dad saying that money was really tight this year. Under the circumstances, my asking for a stealth helicopter, a working iron man suit, and a full-sized imperial snow walker seemed a tad unrealistic. Paige: So what are you asking for instead? Jason: Here. Paige: Um, it's all the same items... Jason: I changed the "and" to and "or." Paige: Your sense of sacrifice is breathtaking. Jason: Is it now too lean? I could go with an "and/or"...
