Club Penguin Wiki

Comics were a frequently-appearing medium in Club Penguin, usually consisting of a joke. Comics were often related to events occurring around the time, or satirizing gameplay or social elements, such as penguins roleplaying as objects or other creatures.

Comics appeared throughout many issues of the Club Penguin Times prior to its November 2010 redesign. The earliest issues had official comics starring two penguins named Bernie and Iggy, but these were soon replaced with fan-submitted comics, which stayed until the aforementioned redesign. Official comics returned to the Club Penguin Times at the end of December 2013, releasing once every few weeks, replacing the second Ask Aunt Arctic section whenever they appeared. They no longer appeared after July 2015.

At the end of October 2007[1], a comics page was introduced to the Fun Stuff section on the Club Penguin website, consisting of official comics. This section was updated with a new comic every two or three weeks until the end of 2009, although later comics were much less frequently released. Many of these comics were included in the Club Penguin Comics: Volume 1 book, along with a variety of new comics original to the book.

Comics frequently appeared in the Club Penguin Magazine, with some being one page long, while others spanned several pages.

Only one comic was made for Club Penguin Island, published on the Island News Blog.

Trivia[]

  • The first four comics from early issues of The Penguin Times, all titled "Waddle On", were credited as being made by "Zippo Penguin". This name was previously mentioned on the back cover of the September 2005 Penguin Style catalog, in an advertisement for a missing Fluffy fish.
    • Screenhog came up with the name "Zippo Penguin" as a "goofy" penguin name.[2]
  • Polo Field said on Twitter that comics stopped being made because they were too time-consuming to make, but they returned in issue 426 of the Club Penguin Times.
  • In issue 436 of the Club Penguin Times, the comic had a secret: if the mouse cursor hovered over the Everyday Phoning Facility badge, the EPF badge appeared, and clicking on it would reveal a message regarding the Indestructible Containment Environment.
  • There was a message in the comic from issue 460 of the Club Penguin Times, saying "We won't run out. Rookie ordered sooo many." This was a reference to when Rookie tipped the island during the Underwater Expedition, by ordering too many anvils.
