I would have never known about this until now. Thank you and all ur friends for the awesome comic! If toonami ever comes back I they have to let Tom 3 host
Looking at what happened during Toonami on 11/3/12, there are two TOMs. TOM 3 and TOM 4 co-exist with Three telling TOMino "Maybe we should tell what happened."
No the reason Tom 4 existed is because they wanted to change how tom looked for toonami's 10 year. It never explained if or how tom 3 died but I don't think he did because he hosted the 2012 april fools broadcast and now TOM 3.5/ TOM 5 is the upgraded version of tom 3 being the same mold but in HD is the newest host.
I remember this comic!!! Looking back at it, 1:55 seems a little inappropriate Come on, don't do that to TOM!! He's just a kid and life is a nightmare!!
I'm so excited for the sequel to Toonami Endgame which explains three stories; how Tom 3 went to Tom 4, how Tom 4 went to Tom 3.5, and how Tom 3.5 went to Tom 5. My prediction on how they went from Tom 4 to Tom 3.5 is that Tom 4, going into deep depression that Toonami ending, committed suicide and jumped into the volcano. Meanwhile, Ghost Planet Industries, the company that developed TOM 1 and 2, as well as the Absolution, went bankrupt. Sara reused one of the old TOM robots to build TOM 3.5 out of depression. That's a theory. A Gay-M Theory.
This would have been awesome in CGI. Oh well, I guess they didn't have the budget. :S Still a cool story. I don't have much experience with TOM 3. By that time period, I didn't have cable. I know Moltar, I know TOM 1, I know TOM 2 the best, but TOM 3 is the one I know the least. I got access to cable by the time TOM 4 came around, but I largely lost interest. :( Everything didn't feel like Tooami by that point. And now it's gone. I hope it comes back someday.
looks like your the only Tom 3 hater on the planet, sucks for you cause for hating on Tom 3, you'll most likely get hated on for die-hard toonami fans. We are all cool with Tom 1-3, we are cool with any tom as long as he doesnt look gay, and the T.O.M. has to have a badass helmet= Tom 1,2, and TOM 3.
Dude way off. Tom 4 never died and neither did tom 3. And tom 3 isn't back it is tom 3.5. Some people just call him tom 5. It never explains why tom 3 became tom 4 it was likely just an upgrade or something.
I always hated Tom3, infact I cheered when Tom4 came if only for the fact that I wouldnt have to see 3 again. I always wondered why he changed and now I know. God they didnt even have the decency to give the real Absolution a proper send off it had to be blown up in a freaking web comic! I hope Toonami (New version) Dosent use 3 like they did on April 1st, that would be one big stain on an otherwise perfect revival
"Now just a minute you..." Am I the only who thinks Tom 2 was completely out of character. Tom 1 was friendly and fun but when Tom 1 died and Tom 2 showed up he was cooler, more badass, and clearly programmed to handle a crisis much better. Here Tom 2 is acting like Tom 1. "Gulp." Are you kidding me. There was no difference between Tom 2 and Tom 3. Tom 3 was bigger so it is arguable that he might be stronger and more able to handle physical combat but that is it. I wonder how things would have played out if Tom 2 had acted like Tom 2.
+bigevil1001 Considering that he ran into the throne room, went one-on-one with Orcelot Rex, used everything at his immediate disposal, and lost, I'm not sure what you have in mind here.
bigevil1001 During the third part of Intruder 2, the Intruder disabled TOM 3 the use of his left arm; luckily, in the final part, he got a new one (it wasn't perfect, but it was close). During the events of Intruder 3, radiation storms and quakes were signs that Shogo 162 was dying; thankfully, TOM and Sara got a new ship: the Vindication.
We’re talking about a version of Tom who was hesitant to even come close to the engine section cause the intruder was eating it in order to blow it up and detach it, and who commissioned an ENTIRE ARMY of combat Clyde’s just so he wouldn’t DO that again. “The DOKs? I don’t think there’s any danger.” “Oh ho ho NO I went out last time, remember? Best safe than sorry.”
and now here comes TOM 5 may 26th baby awwww yeah #ToonamisBackBitches
Toonami reminds you that the Sara Cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, won't shut up.
Now,this is referenced in the Return.
I would have never known about this until now. Thank you and all ur friends for the awesome comic! If toonami ever comes back I they have to let Tom 3 host
hey toonami is back in adult swim
I like to think that TOM 3 and 4 are completely separate beings.
they arnt
toonami needs its own show
Honestly, I had no idea there was a comic for Toonami.
@AGrayPhantom The GPSS Absolution reminds you that the Sara Cube will not place charges on the inside of the ship because it cannot move.
Tom 3 was my favorite. Glad to finally know how he upgraded. But it feels like there were a few pages missing. Are there?
shoulda been an immersion event :(
Thanks for putting this back up online. Such a great story.
THAT WAS THE GREATEST STORY EVER!!!

Tom 2 clearly has only four fingers (three fingers and a thumb) on each hand. Tom 1 had only two fingers and a thumb on each hand.
Nice
@IamtheHatMan it was in response to "Oh, Hi, Sara". Look up "Oh hi mark" on youtube. its a "The Room" reference
Guess you could say
Tom *forked* him up
I remember this comic!!! Looking back at it, 1:55 seems a little inappropriate
Come on, don't do that to TOM!! He's just a kid and life is a nightmare!!
Yeah
This kind of feels like it could of been a 16-bit platformer.
The original master chief...right here.
I read this comic on the Toonami site long ago. I forgot what happen to the Absolution. 0:57
Least he got a new one.
Me too.
that was so awesome

tom 4 and 3 are completly different robots I think
they are in intruder 2 the blob thing killed top 4
Nice to see a Toonami comic
Big yikes to see the story and script is by Paul Pope.
HOLY MOLEY!!
Aww man! I wanted to see Tom 5! -:(
@IamtheHatMan thank you.
I wish people dub this
Well yeah, that's the ".5", new textures.
...That and the fact that the block, channel, producers and website calls him like that.
Well that answers my question
Is there something for Tom 3.5 becoming Tom 5?
oh seems legit i just thought he looked slightly different.
*plays endgame theme*
ROFL @ 4:21
"Oh Hai Mark" xD
Actually Adu when he was T.O.M 2.0 he had six fingers in T.O.M 3.0 he had five.So maybe he loses fingers.
I checked and TOM 2 has 4 fingers actually while TOM 3, 3.5, 5 and 6 have 5 fingers
Tom X Sara🖤💙
Sara x Swayzak baby
What the fuck x why 💔💔
This would have been awesome in CGI. Oh well, I guess they didn't have the budget. :S
Still a cool story. I don't have much experience with TOM 3. By that time period, I didn't have cable. I know Moltar, I know TOM 1, I know TOM 2 the best, but TOM 3 is the one I know the least. I got access to cable by the time TOM 4 came around, but I largely lost interest. :(
Everything didn't feel like Tooami by that point. And now it's gone. I hope it comes back someday.
Is it just me, or is it that every time Tom is remade he gains another finger on each hand?
technically since they never showed a transfer to tom 4 it meas that tom 3 was still chiln uo in his space ship
is it me or is there a part missing because he was surrounded and bam no explosion scene the big guy is there
Toonami bot aid comp of mine
lol, Proto-Halo at it's finest.
4:05 4th wall break YAY
How did tom 3 become 4
did any of you know that the reason tom 4 existed is cuz tom 3 somehow died?
Oh alright. I was mostly right. So tom 3 did become tom 4 but like I said, tom 3 isn't back. It i tom 3.5.
This man said Discombobulated before it was cool. I’m done.
Okay
toonami is back look up neotoonami
story could of been better
@IamtheHatMan A Rhyme XD

they are my friend, they are. When I saw the conversation between 3 and 4, I was giving tears of joy. I was glad that the real tom wasn't gay.

I always hated Tom3, infact I cheered when Tom4 came if only for the fact that I wouldnt have to see 3 again. I always wondered why he changed and now I know. God they didnt even have the decency to give the real Absolution a proper send off it had to be blown up in a freaking web comic! I hope Toonami (New version) Dosent use 3 like they did on April 1st, that would be one big stain on an otherwise perfect revival
I think TOM 3 is kinda hot
"Now just a minute you..." Am I the only who thinks Tom 2 was completely out of character. Tom 1 was friendly and fun but when Tom 1 died and Tom 2 showed up he was cooler, more badass, and clearly programmed to handle a crisis much better. Here Tom 2 is acting like Tom 1. "Gulp." Are you kidding me. There was no difference between Tom 2 and Tom 3. Tom 3 was bigger so it is arguable that he might be stronger and more able to handle physical combat but that is it. I wonder how things would have played out if Tom 2 had acted like Tom 2.
Ikr!
+bigevil1001 Considering that he ran into the throne room, went one-on-one with Orcelot Rex, used everything at his immediate disposal, and lost, I'm not sure what you have in mind here.
It's his personality. He wasn't acting like hi,self.
bigevil1001 During the third part of Intruder 2, the Intruder disabled TOM 3 the use of his left arm; luckily, in the final part, he got a new one (it wasn't perfect, but it was close).

“The DOKs? I don’t think there’s any danger.”
“Oh ho ho NO I went out last time, remember? Best safe than sorry.”
Terrible quality I can't read the text
HOLD UP, WHY WASNT THIS ANIMATED? I RATHER HAVE THIS THEN INTRUDER II
