Russell Vega, a member of the wrestling team, gets into a fight with two other teammates. The coach warns the team to stop roughhousing or they will face more complaints. Another teammate, who has seen Russell perform in shows, tries to offer his help to Russell but Russell refuses due to past negative experiences with athletes. They argue about athlete stereotypes, with Russell being highly distrustful and the other teammate trying to convince Russell not all athletes are mean. Russell then goes to meet with his biology tutor.

1. Survive The Team
Pass His Classes
Get A Job
Get The Girl
… That’s All

2. In case you missed the last issue… well,
actually, this is a webcomic so it’s kind of hard
to miss an issue of this unless you’re
purposefully choosing not to read these
webcomics and – oh, you are? Fair enough.
Anyway, we last left off with Russell Vega
getting in a brawl with two “fellow”
participants of the wrestling team and… …

3. Alright, you guys. It’s time to
stop screwing around
because if we get another
complaint for rough housing,
we’ll be tied with the chess
team for violent outbreaks!

5. Hey Russell, I saw that
rumble you got in with
Trevor and Erik. Are you
alight?
First of all, yes. Second
of all, why do you care?
Third, everyone saw
that.
Read this guy’s talk boxes first.

6. Look, I’m just trying to be
nice. You don’t have to be
all tense and stuff. If you
want, I’ll even help you out
during practice.
Oh, yeah, sure you’re
going to do that. You’re
not going to earn my
trust and then f(beep)
around. Nice try! I
already fell for that!

7. What, you actually go to
my shows? Look buddy, I
appreciate all of my fans
but I don’t appreciate
YOUR kind! You know,
athletes!
That’s not what it’s like.
That may be what the
other wrestlers on the
team did but that’s not
me. And speaking of being
different, what happened
to the Russell Vega I saw
on stage at those shows?

8. If you want to know the
answer to that question,
go back into the gym and
you’ll see the people
who killed that guy to
death!
What the Hell, Vega?!
What happened to the guy
who went around
promoting acceptance?

9. That’s what the schools
want us to think! You
people get away with
doing whatever the
(bleep) you want,
whether it’s stuffing
dorks in lockers,
causing car crashes by
putting fake deer
around the bend in the
middle of the road,
beating up on women
or other forms of
tyranny, but we still see
your pictures on flyers
for the upcoming
games because we
need you to win and
represent the schools!
Russell! Not all athletes
are mean!

10. Whatever. I don’t need
you! Right now, all I need
is this tutor I’m about to
see for my upcoming
biology exam!
What the (@@)?! Well,
anyway, I’ll see you later.
Hopefully you’ll
reconsider my offer. By
the way, for someone
who prides himself on
appreciating his fans,
you’ve never talked to me
before right now and I’ve
been to a lot of your
shows! Maybe you’re the
one who’s misjudging us!

11. Alright, here’s the
study room. Now,
where’s that biology
tutor?

12. Oh no.
So Russell, I hear that you
need help with your
biology!!
