Comic for Monday, October 12th
Hey. I think I recognize that guy.
Technically two of those people can be recognized, but the green haired girl has only appeared briefly previously (and it was a long time ago). Her deal will probably be explained sometime later.
There is a new vote incentive; see it here. To be fair it’s sort of a placeholder – just a random sheet of faces I was doodling when it came time to post this comic. I told you guys I was working on expressions. … Not saying it’s going much of anywhere, but I’m working on it!
Nothing else to really update here. Life is sort of like an engine revving in neutral currently – lots of spinning, not much moving. Hopefully something will catch sooner or later 😉
Shoulder is getting better at least – doesn’t hurt at all when I run; still bothers me swimming and stuff, but that’s to be expected. Have started to play tennis again (left handed, obviously). Frustrating. It’s like trying to play an FPS with a joystick – sure, it’s possible, but damn is it harder to control and aim 😉
The current vote incentive is a placeholder… in the spirit of October (which is to say Halloween) lets do this – suggest a character (from my comic) and costume (from comics, anime, video games, webcomics, or just general) and I’ll put it up as the vote incentive. No guarantees (based on how many suggestions I get). Feel free to promote pick a costume from your own comic if you’re a comic creator or fan 😉
Preemptively… “Purple girl” is not a typo of “Purple haired girl”; I just found more entertaining that way – she tends to have a lot of purple involved between the hair, eyes, and all the glowy stuff.
True to form, Special agent Otte seems to have missed a certain “Kor’s World presence” floating overhead. ^^
He would also probably be more forceful about warning his squad about “Purple Girl” if he’d seen Naomi pounding the lubricating oil out of the Kor’s World battle mech. ^^ ^^
Let’s hope he brought a better class of henchmen (and henchwoman), since he had twice as many last time. Nick also hasn’t faced Mium, yet, and if Tyler hurries, he might even get in on the fun. 🙂
I could almost feel sorry for Special Agent Nick Otte …… almost. ^^
On the artwork front, the droprover has improved. More real–less symbolic. 🙂
Otte is probably a little more nervous than he shows, but really wants to prove that he is in control and calm. He’s confident that he’s seen the worst that can be thrown at him now, and has brought much stronger agents with him.
He’s second wave IDS; to him the IDS beat Kor’s World last time, and will do it again if they show up. This isn’t entirely his fault; the IDS propaganda and the reality of the Incursion (first war) are very different things, and there is a good reason for that. Peter has a habit of knowing more than he’s supposed to though – part of what kicked off some of the plot even 😉
Fortunately for Otte (and Peter), Kor’s World also came into this expecting a quick one sided stomp; to them they were investigating an academy, not throwing the first punch of a three (four? five? – depends on how you count the MSB and Kally) sided battle 😉
