I would assume you would get Body Part Chargers at Best Buy (or they give them away at your shitty office job).

MA Caiti

The Ones Who Walk Away From Northampton...

Captain Button

Do they tap into some weird higher-dimensional energy? Perhaps they're just unlicensed nuclear accelerators. Or they just run on human despair and suffering... Or souls, maybe? Have the AIs developed batteries that run on human souls?

Stevie C-K

I imagine he would have the same problems that May has been complaining about over the last couple strips...

Jono Hayward

It becomes as useful as a hook, but less painful. He still has his other hand for manipulation and all of his arm strength.

Hedgie

Am I the only one that thought he would be talking about learning how to jerk it before I actually read the text?

Jeph should probably make and sell those..

That observation about fire is pretty great. It may be a thing I use to make points about technology in the future.

Hambone Fakenamington

It's maybe less important that things be scientifically correct, but they should at least be internally consistent within the comic universe. For this reason, the creator needs to think these thoughts.

Peter Jensen

Totally want a WTF-sized cup now...

Volker Wegert

Must be an Apple-brand semi-intelligent hand. He can't just swap the battery when it runs dry.

Carl Fink

Only getting a day out of a charge is kind of concerning. Even if he charges it every night, if he had to stay up really late, would he be without a useful right hand? Was it in danger of running out of juice when he was helping people out of the fire?

Eric Sieck

"If you're wondering how batteries power robots, and other science facts, just repeat to yourself 'It's just a web comic, I should really just relax."

Marc Kevin Hall

second panel - should be 'like' not 'lke'
