I actually found that kinda funny.
Most VG Cats I usiually find stupid and/or humorless, but this one kinda made me laugh.

I loved it as well.

I just loved the shocked reactions at the end.

Are you being sarcastic? Most importantly, have you played Elite Beat Agents?

It has Adolf Hitler planning something (not clear on that, though). He then yells help because he doesn't know what to do.

Leo and Aeris (who are dressed as Kahn and an agent respectively) see the call and are shocked to see who made it.

So they deny his request and close shop (which is actually the game's "Game over" screen).

The joke is that the EBA are willing to help anyone TO AN EXTEND.

I haven't played Elite Beat Agents, you have a problem with that?

Yes. Yes. You hate awesome. j/k  

On VGCats, every once in a while they do something neat, like now, but usually I find them really crass and always going for cheap shots, easy jokes, and low hanging fruit.

When I asked him that, I didn't mean it that way. I simply asked because the pun of the joke is better understood if you have played the game.

Please tell me you're joking.  Do your homework.

Ah so that's what the final solution is...

I did know about the Jewish Genocide, but this is honestly the first time I heard of the Final Solution.

In that case, the comic is rather low brow, but at least the characters were freaked out that Hitler called them for help, hence why I find it funny.

Well, looks like enough people complained. The comic is no longer in rotation. I looked around the site and nothing.

Maybe it was the reference to the Holocaust that turned many people off.

I don't understand it myself. I mean, the topic WAS racy, but it was handled in a good way (like I mentioned earlier, the EBA characters freak the hell out and close shop at the idea of helping Hitler).

It would've been even worse had they shown the EBA actually helping the soldiers during the Holocaust.

Linky.

It's not the final version (the first panel is different, and it's missing the Sorry, We're Closed panel, but she'll get the gist of it.

I took the bits and pieces that I could find and I recreated it just for those of you that wanted to see it.
