Manly Guys Doing Manly Things is written by Kelly Turnbull, whom the internet knows as Coelasquid. The comic only updates once a week, which makes me a little sad, but I respect that Kelly is a full-time professional animator and that this is just her fun little side project. The comic follows the adventures of a temp agency deisgned to help integrate ridiculously macho guys back into society. The head of the agency is one Commander Badass (yes, that is the only name you get for him). It parodies comics and video games, so expect to see Kratos, Sten, Duke Nukem, Leonidas, and many others.
In Kelly's own words: "Sometime this is a comic about macho action heroes. Sometimes this is a slice of life comic about a time traveling Navy SEAL single dad from the nonspecific spacefuture. Really, it just depends on how things were going that day."
Also, if you go into the "Extras" section, she has a handful of other silly comics. My favorite of these is posted below. I'm not posting anything from Manly Guys because I want you all to actually go read it. Go, my minions!
