IPMan

According to Broadvox’s press release, “IP Man and [his sidekick] Metoo were conceived to captivate and entertain telephony experts while they battle the enemies of IP Communications: the evil Mr. Bellhead, Noise, Jitter and Echo.”

While the three episodes of the comic available on the IPMan website are all obvious pitches for Broadvox, there is a pretty amusing Space Invaders-style game (dubbed “Tele-vaders”) — and episode two of the comic strip, especially if read aloud, offers several opportunities for Michael Scott-esque “that’s what she said” quips.

But it’s not all fun and games — if your boss walks by, you can quickly navigate to the “shields” page and read about fundamentals of IP service delivery, such as QoS and network reliability.
