He holds up a giant sign saying "now that I have him, what do I do with him"... This is because he's to big to eat road runner. Its kind of anticlimactic but satisfies an itch at the same time.

That is so totally Friday's comic it's not even funny.

2. And yes, the BattleTech reference was pretty good for the miniature gamer readers. BattleTech was never my particular cup of tea for gaming, but I enjoyed reading the BattleTech Universe itself because was very well written during its early eras. Unfortunately, the original owning company (FASA) lost control of their product; likewise, BattleTech's woes were compounded by later era horrible, horrible game writers and novelists.

ahem, Particle Proyection Cannon. Yes, my day was also made by the MechWarrior reference (loving it since Mechwarrior 2 and The Warrior Trilogy). Proof that this webcomic just keeps getting awesomer.
and sorry for the creepy joke, I had no idea those werent welcome.

You have it backwards, unless they released a new episode. The Coyote is the one who gets small, not the Road Runner. He jumps on to his leg and hugs it with glee, then holds up a sign referring to the fact that he's too small to eat him.
So am I the only one that found Marigold's comment at the end depressing instead of funny? I know Jeph was going for funny, I get that, but she's incredibly desperate to play video games at the very beginning of her "grounding" and you see how serious her addiction really is. While the punishment is silly, it appears she really needs it.

Actually, it was the reverse... Wile E. Coyote was still miniature and Road Runner was back to normal size (thus a "giant" to Wile E. Coyote's perspective).
Of course, one of my personal favorites is when Wile E. Coyote (Genius) first verbally introduced himself and stated his intent to catch & eat Bugs Bunny. Standard Wile E Coyote (Super Genius! at that point) hilarity ensues.
P.S. Edit Add: stoutfiles beat me to it. /highfive for "classic" WB cartoons
