Totally Flaked
Totally Flaked is a sprite comic created by Sarumarine of Advance Wars Network. The comic started out as a crossover between Advance Wars and Super Mario Brothers. Soon after, there came a crossover between Advance Wars and Fire Emblem, a crossover between Advance Wars and its predecessors and, finally, an awesome parody of Advance Wars. The comic ceased when the author mysteriously vanished. Turns out the author has been having computer problems and life to deal with. Fortunately, Master Knight got a hold of him and found out that the material is safe. Perhaps Too Good to Last will be averted. Only time will tell.
This very wiki stole one of the comics. (Look at the URL)
