Undertale Jokes Novels & Stories

Undertale comics are a goldmine of humor, and one of my all-time favorites has to be 'Underfell' fanworks. The edgy reinterpretation of characters like Sans and Papyrus is just chef's kiss—imagine Papyrus strutting around in a leather jacket, calling everyone 'punk' while still being hilariously inept. The contrast between their dark redesigns and their canon personalities creates this absurd tension that fan artists exploit perfectly. I especially love comics where Sans tries to maintain his cool-guy facade but keeps tripping over his own scarf.

Another gem is 'Dogs of Future Past,' where the Lesser Dog’s neck stretches into increasingly ridiculous situations (think: wrapping around entire battlefields or becoming a makeshift bridge). The sheer creativity in these gag strips makes me snort-laugh every time. Bonus points for comics that incorporate Temmie—her broken English and chaotic energy are comedy gold, especially when she interrupts dramatic moments with nonsense like 'hOI!'

Undertale's fan community is a goldmine of creativity, but when it comes to comics that consistently crack me up, I have to shout out LoverOfPiggies. Their style is deceptively simple—almost scribbly—but the timing and absurdist twists are chef’s kiss. One comic I still giggle at has Sans trying to explain quantum physics to Papyrus, who just nods and then asks if it’s related to spaghetti. The way they capture Papyrus’s blissful ignorance mixed with Sans’s deadpan exhaustion is pure genius.

Another favorite is Muffet’s ‘customer service’ series, where she deals with overly enthusiastic humans wanting free pastries. The facial expressions are so exaggerated, like something out of a classic cartoon. It’s not just jokes, though—they sneak in little character insights that feel true to Toby Fox’s original writing. Their Tumblr archive is a rabbit hole I’ve lost entire afternoons to, and ZeroChill420’s crossover comics (especially the ‘Undyne vs. Doomguy’ gym rivalry) are a close second for sheer chaotic energy.

The charm of 'Undertale' comics lies in how they amplify the game's quirky humor and heartwarming absurdity. The original game already thrives on breaking the fourth wall, subverting RPG tropes, and delivering punchlines with perfect timing—comics take that energy and run wild with it. Artists and writers latch onto characters like Sans, whose deadpan sarcasm is a goldmine for meme-worthy moments, or Papyrus, whose unintentional comedy is pure joy. The fandom’s creativity turns small in-game interactions into elaborate, exaggerated jokes, like Toriel’s mom energy or Mettaton’s dramatic flair.

What really seals the deal is how these comics balance nostalgia and novelty. Even if you’ve played the game a dozen times, seeing a fresh take on Flowey’s mischief or Undyne’s chaotic training montages feels like rediscovering 'Undertale' all over again. Plus, the community’s inside jokes—think 'temmie flakes' or 'determination' memes—create this shared language that makes the humor feel inclusive. It’s like being part of a secret club where everyone’s in on the laugh.
