...are not "Adventures" so much as schizophrenic delusions In one strip , a cooked turkey that's walking and talking suggests that it's a hallucination. In another, Dr. McNinja's soul splits into a doctor and a ninja after death. Given that people recognize him even when he's in disguise, and that he can walk a raptor in a dog park without getting odd looks, among other oddities, it may in fact be that all this is a product of the man's own deranged mind.
Gordito will eventually become King Radical
Present Day!Radical's plan is to use the special nuclear warhead to erase all of Cumberland to recreate the Radical Land. After defeating Mcninja, (or at least crippling him/breaking his spirit a la Bane), he will raise Gordito as his own. Years later, Mcninja will regain his bravery after defeating Hans Rainer, who has tracked him down, and will confront Radical. After defeating Radical, the King will reveal that his true identity is Gordito, the Doctor's sidekick.
Gordito will become fed up with the doctor's bad treatment of him, and go Jason Todd on him (possible foreshadowing in the Alt Text of this page). Sparklelord will appear, freed from the time loop through sheer force of will, and will try to stop Radical. Mcninja and Gordito!Radical will team up to save Cumberland and banish Sparklelord, but Chuck Goodrich will throw himself and Radical into the purple time rift, sacrificing himself to save Cumberland.
The two will arrive in the past, and Radical will kill Goodrich. Through sheer force of will, the same force which grew his mustache, Radical will live for thousands of years, becoming the most radical man in the radical land. Eventually, he will meet Martin, and try to manipulate him to find the location of Mcninja before the doctor can become a threat. Radical will take Mcninja into the past/future to see how the doctor's recklessness will get the better of him (towards the end of Doc Gets Rad, Young!Doctor appears in the cave), and will try to convince him to renounce the ninja way. Mcninja will refuse, and jump back into the time rift, "waking up" in the future right after he had left.
The comic will end with the Doctor renouncing the ninja way and removing his mask.
Dan McNinja's explanation of the mask is clearly a Chekhov's Gun (or rather, Chekhov's BFG). And it's clear that the Doctor's dual nature as both a killer and a healer is causing him to become psychologically unbalanced. He will eventually find peace by renouncing the way of violence and devoting himself to medicine.
Count Dracula was behind everything. Everything.
Drac arranged for the creation of the McNinja Burger so the events of "There's a Raptor in My Office" could occur. Drac told Captain O'Shay where and when to find the Doctor so that the events of "So What Is a McNinja?" could occur and the Doc could be reconciled with his family. Drac suggested the complicated viewership-raising scheme to Newscorp so Doc would get Gordito as a sidekick. Drac gave Frans Rayner the ninja drug so that Frans' attempt to draw Dan McNinja out by killing Doc would result in Ben Franklin II's death. Drac specifically formulated the Headless Horsemen potion so it would cause a Zombie Apocalypse, so that Doc, in order to study the zombies alone, would send Gordito off to visit his (recently reconciled) family, so Gordito would ultimately accompany them on their fight with the Ghost Wizard, and so Drac could threaten Gordito to blackmail the Doctor.
Haruhi is behind everything
...
and its not the one you're thinking of.
The guy from "Ask a Ninja" secretly wrote "Dr. McNinja"
Or the good Doctor fact checks the ask a Ninja scripts.
King Radical is, in fact The King.
He got "Scuttletruck" to work for him by telling the poor guy that "you ain't nothing but a hound dog, cryin' all the time."
King Radical is actually The King from Burger King.
His arch nemesis is Ronald McDonald, and the next story arc will involve the Doc (along with all of Cumberland) getting stuck in the middle.
The Mayor of Cumberland is a retired vampire hunter.
He once tangled with Dracula, hence his morbid fear of the undead and wide-reaching connections.
Agent Bearclaw is a former ninja.
He took off his mask during the '80s so that Rayner wouldn't kill him. Who else but a ninja or former ninja could be so homicidal and badass that the Doctor would prefer to stay out of arms reach? Sure, he could have taken Rayner today, but back then he would have been just a kid.
The lung on his keychain is a real lung.
He used either his doctor powers or his ninja powers to pull it out of the chest of an evil leprechaun. Alternately, it's the lung of a dearly departed friend.
When Hortense says her employer is "anonymous", she means it.
Some Anon(s) realized that 4chan is not their personal army, so they hired one. Stopping the world from not blowing up is the ultimate troll. As is Hortense's methodology: unnecessarily shooting the pilot, and then waiting until the Doctor was through everything and shooting the man he came to save? Hell of a troll. The "birdosaurus" was also hired by Anonymous.
Carl the weatherman is King Radical.
Nobody that diabolical would be content to pull a single Kansas City Shuffle, and then settle back down into his quiet lifestyle as a meteorologist.
Gary
Ninja hair trimming would usually fall under "Ninja Tricks", due to their masks covering their scalps. However, as an MD, Doctor McNinja might get free haircuts. The Doctor could never say no to free haircuts, and as such, Gary is the only person to have ever seen him without his mask. Hence the speed dial: if the Doctor's identity were ever in jeopardy, Gary would be the only man he could trust.
will become an Ascended Extra.
King Radical is Doctor McNinja from the future.
This is why he can anticipate the Doc's every move so well, and why he only plays with him rather than trying to kill him - he is trying to force his past self to give up the convoluted Ninja/Doctor ways, and become the most radical man in the radical land.
The motorcycle actually does belong to Lisa Frank
Doctor McNinja has a white mask under his black mask.
It's there so that if he ever needs to unmask himself, he can become his complete opposite?he will don a black labcoat, working at a general hospital and constantly working with the police. Naturally, underneath that white mask is another black mask, so that after he is no longer in danger he can return as the true Dr. McNinja.
Both the motorcycle and King Radical are fairies.
C'mon. King Radical is capricious and vain, apparently immortal, from a plane of existence that is clearly not this universe... you get the idea. Similarly, the motorcycle, whose true form is a unicorn, appears to drive whoever rides it to madness. This smacks of typical fairy meddling. It is therefore my learned conclusion that the Radical Land is, in fact, Fairyland, and that the arc will end with the Doctor refusing to believe in the motorcycle and King Radical, and the two fairies fading away, Charles and Marianne-style.
Just look at him. The "Radical Land" is more or less the "Plane Of Cool" with Radical as its ruler. Therefore, King Radical is capable of some seriously insane stunts.
The Doctor will need to provide medical attention to a space monster
at some point in the future. The McNinja family are immigrants from Radical Land.
They all have a natural level of genetic radicalness.
King Radical is a cunning villain, and Sparkelord really is one of his previous victims, albeit a somewhat conniving and vengeful one. You're right! You're freaking spot on!! The latest page!!! King Radical says so himself! (unless of course he's just messing with Dr.Mcninja)
Sparklelord is Bad Horse.
YES. Just yes.
Doc kills both Sparklelord and Radical.
The Mayor of Cumberland is from the Radical Land.
There's an astronaut wielding a bo staff in one of Radical's flashbacks about the Radical Land, who came to our world sometime after Radical. Sparklelord's evil army must have included undead of some kind, which would explain his fear and hatred of zombies.
Doc's college vigilante club teammate Mary/Christina will be important later on
Doc says "When Mary's house came under attack, a tornado picked it up and flung it somewhere. I haven't heard from her since, but I'm sure she's okay." Tempting Fate or not, that sounds like a hook to bring her back into the story at some point.
The person from the future in a space suit...
Is either Dr. McNinja or his clone, coming back in time from the present to stop the clones from being recombined.
Both King Radical and Sparklelord were telling the truth.
Sparklelord truly was an Evil Overlord, and Radical defeated him just so he could build something for orphans.
All of the above are true.
Chris probably reads this page for ideas.
Doc's snarky inner voice ("you're not a dark and troubled soul, you're a doctor who wants to be Batman") is actually a remnant of the mind of one of his clones.
Probably one of the two McNinjas who was making fun of his pre-mission speech.
All of the rumors about Chuck Goodrick shown on this page
Since it's been revealed that Chuck is actually from the future, making at least the first rumor seem true.
are true. Gordito is an alternate universe Gunslinger
Maybe not since he is shown to be blatantly copying The Dark Tower books. Then again, infinite universes. But come on, dual wielded revolvers.
Mongo is now under the control of Donald McBonald.
The alt text of D.A.R.E. To Resist Ninja Drugs And Ninja Violence (Part 2) states that the "treats" which keep Mongo reigned in are Happy Meal toys. This would give Ronald the ability to control Mongo just as well as the midget did.
Vlad (the man who flew the helicopter for Rayner) will show back up in the service of Radical.
King Radical favors powerful servants with a connection to Dr McNinja (Hortense and Martin), and Vlad appears to fit the bill. Plus, Radical needs new blood to rebuild his organization after Sparklelord's attack, and Vlad is one of the very few named villains McNinja has faced whose final fates remain unknown (the others being Dracula and Radical).
The Ninja Zombie Apocalypse is still going to happen.
Raise your hand if you think the McNinja-clone that didn't show up until the experiment was ruined is somehow infected with a dormant form of the zombie "virus" that will cause him to rise up as a zombie the day he dies.
Franz Rayner in the Army of One arc is being used by King Radical
Franz Rayner is going to invoke the inverse ninja law
This is why he made so many clones of Dr. Mcninja that aren't interested in killing their non-cloned self.
Franz will lose this fight but survive.
And he, along with King Radical, Dracula, Hortense and Robster will do a Villain Team Up at some point in the future.
The Doctor will defeat Franz by....
Cloning him. Once the Inverse Ninja Law applies to Franz, Doc will be able to match him one-on-one and defeat Frans again.
The Doctor will defeat Franz by
killing the clones, thereby negating the effects of the Inverse Ninja Law. Considering the last panel of the last strip as of this edit is him saying "I'm... going to feel terrible about this for the rest of my life," I'd say there's at least a chance...
The future zombies are still Doc's clones
Chuck thought he had found the source when he found Doc being uncloned. Franz has tried cloning Doc for revenge. Someone will clone Doc in the future and zombie apocalypse will happen.
Eventually a Chuck Goodrich will come to stop the future from being overrun by Chuck Goodiches.
Logically, if versions of him from different timelines keep coming, eventually the planet will be filled with more of him then there are of anyone else, thereby using up all of the world's resources and causing the apocalypse. Of course, yet another one will come from the future to try and stop this.
The Adventures of Dr. McNinja is going to end soon
The Doc has 4 things to do on his list before he dies. 1, Jump of a tall building and improvise way into safe landing. 2, Go to Mars and find the cure for cancer. 3, Find true love aaaaaawww. 4, Punch out a dinosaur. He has done numbers 1 and 4. He has had the possibility of number two confirmed to him by Dracula AND he personally knows one, now several, astronauts (or still just one?). SO number two looks to be done soon. Number three has also been hinted at with the introduction of Hortense. Who, if not Mcninja's love interest, at least serves to cue the reader in on Mcninja's personal life. At the rate Mcninja is going through his goals he's gonna run out, and so have nothing left except to die. Although there is his current obsession over King Radical, so the comic is unlikely to end without suitable closure there as well.
Presumably, he will go 10 to 15ish years into the past to arrive into the comic now.
King Radical is behind the apocalypses that Chuck Goodrich keeps traveling back in time to stop.
The doctor is a Time Lo-THONK!!!
We apologize for the previous WMG, the troper responible has been restrained and sedated.
McNinja gets betrayed by Gordito
The Doctor's "inner voice" is actually the "lost in time" version of his mind.
It will pop back to every time the Doc talked to himself, comment on it, be heard by himself, and be whisked away again. He finds nothing odd about this because it's been happening to him since he was a young child.
Dracula is king radical's Dragon
Because King radical can go to the past, he could have meeted him when Dracula was Young.
The pirates showed aren't real pirates
Because, besides dan's logic, the fact that a man with truly pirate blood can fight equally against a ninja is still real. King radical is the king of the pirates. Hortense has pirate blood too, just by the fact that if she and mcninja have a baby, it will be a Pirate doctor Ninja.
Doctor will travel to the past to be trained by the ninja who create the Mc Ninja's clan
that or he is that ninja.
There will be a Doctor McNinja and Deadpool crossover
Maybeish. Chris has been chosen to write the new Deadpool comics so maybe....
The setting of Doctor McNinja is in the far future of Girl Genius .
Behold: the good Doctor has an office in the Mechanicsburg hospital. Obviously, Doc traveled back in time to Europa, and while stuck in the past, he established an office in the only city as mad as he is. All the weirdness of the modern world is a direct result of Sparks' creations in the distant past.
The Doctor is Yor.
Who else would kill a dinosaur and then turn its corpse into a kite?
Ninja tricks and other techniques that ninjas use to defy the laws of physics are fueled with the residual power of a dead eldritch god.
We already know that there are horrible eldritch abominations in the Dr. Mcninja universe, so this WMG is feasible. Alternatively, the dark, ancient god-thing may just be sleeping.
Future!Dark Smoke Puncher is working with King Radical
This is based entirely on the fact that Doc had chased King Radical into George Washington's abandoned tunnels, and now that's where DSP's anti-dinosaur resistance is apparently based.
The Dinosaur/Human alliance is legit; this iteration of Chuck Goodrich is a terrorist
Future!DSP and Future!Gordito have been manipulated into being public enemies No. 1 and 2 by Chuck, and don't realize the truth.
Dr. McNinja's first name is John.
The Ultimate Diplomat is Barney or a Barney ripoff.
The Ultimate Diplomat is Yoshi.
King Radical and the Temporally Radness
The Dinosaur Future arc is throwing it in our faces, but let's consider just how temporally all over the place King Radical has been.
McNinja's "front line"
The Nasaghasts are Apollo 1 expies
the space ghost followed them to the future
that's the real reason why Sean do the "test" thing, he was trying to protect his brother.
Yoshi has become a Mole for Radical
The rocket cheetah
That scene seemed a bit overly dramatic for something so unnecesary. The rocket cheetah will be a Chekhov'sGun.
will play a pivotal role in the dinosaur war. The Horrorsaurus is actually Yoshi
Dr. McNinja now has the Nasaghast's protection
He has officially been up in a NASA shuttle, with a NASA spacesuit, along with another astronaut. As far as the Nasaghasts are concerned, he is an astronaut. That may even be how he escapes the dinosaurs eating him for not having learned computers.
Doctor McNinja's ninja name is "Doctor"
We know that Doc thinks that ninja names are stupid, so it would make sense that his parents would insist on using his ninja name, to embarrass him, especially since he apparently refuses to go by his first name (cause, you know...the wizard). Why don't they? Well, since he thinks ninja names are dumb, it's possible he chose something they would absolutely refuse to use, out of spite. And what better name than the title that he plans to put in front of his last name anyway, and the occupation that his parents are so ashamed of him pursuing?
Doctor McNinja is Calvin.
Remember Calvin's Tyrannosaurs in F-14s ◊? If that's not from Doctor McNinja, then I don't know what is. I propose that the good doctor is one of Calvin's fantasies à la Spaceman Spiff, possibly from his unshown teenage years. The comic definitely fits Calvin's imagination, and from what we can see of McNinja's face, he even looks a bit like Calvin (fair skinned, fair haired).
King Radical is this guy
The facial hair matches — and wouldn't you be inspired to become the most radical in all the land after seeing that?
in the second panel. Brother Papadopoulos is actually Dr McNinja (or Dark Smoke Puncher)
He shows up at the exact right moment with exactly the right obscure information to save Gordito's mustache, while on his way to teach his first class (so he's new). He slips Gordito a copy of "Chaucer for the Terrible and Incompetent". Since Doc is missing, it could be him, but the sister said they hardly know DSP is there. Who would notice if he disguised himself as a teacher and started teaching classes? Being a ninja, he could probably manage being a student and a teacher at the same time.
Doctor McLuchador isn't Dr. McNinja
Look, I admit he most likely is, but this comic is so weird that it is perfectly consistent that he isn't. McLuchador either was a rival or colleague of McNinja now moving into the territory to fill the void left behind.
The Samurai Demon Guy is actually disguised as the guy serving lunch
Because;
Brother Stouder is actually Dr McNinja
The kid he made clean the crawlspace was trying to set a pick against Gordito, and in Gordito's detention, he tries to help with his homework. Also, they both have blue eyes.
Gordito has Synesthesia
And that's why Papadapoulos' awesome saxophone playing appeared to produce an aurora.
They don't need to save Mitzi's dust
Doc will wonder why they went to so much trouble when it's obviously not necessary.
The Doc who showed up at the hospital and chased off McLuchador was a fake
Because... c'mon. Why would he risk blowing his cover at that moment? If he was worried about his patient, he could have arranged for the normal doctors to find the cure, being a ninja. And if Doc really needed to drive off McLuchador, wouldn't he have used a disguise, given the circumstances? As for who it really was, it may have been Old McNinja, or Hortense.
The Demon's plot will be foiled by the fact that there are far more than one Chuck Goodrich
Chuck Goodrich disguised himself as Dr. McLuchador
When you run someone out of town, wouldn't the people who want their victim to stay out of town?
Dr. Mcluchador is not dead
Instead, he faked his death to fool Dr. McNinja. But now he'll return to pay retribution on whoever is using his name and image.
