Three honkin’ pages of horror, chaos, and action. As much as I enjoy the traditional serial comic format, there are times when a scene just has to play out in its (near) entirety, and this sequence would not have had the same effect had it been stretched out over the course of a week (or three weeks, in the old Sundays-only days of updates). I’ve never done a three-page post before, but sometimes a comic just needs extra-breathing space.
…and if you’re wondering what the hell is going on here, find out on Tuesday!
That is an amazing costume. I think Scapula has gone anime.
I am definitely reading the “Amen” in the third panel in the exact tone of voice that he would use were he to have instead said ” ‘sup”.
And then it turns out this is actually happening and not just a trick and it becomes a very different comic.
The costume looks impressive, but doesn’t look comfy (try wearing it on the bus)! You are also definitely right about the reading of “amen”. Why should Scap try to shout over the booming demon-god?
…but what other comic has this become? Family Circus?
I had a feeling. And it was a good feeling. I feel good. 🙂
OOOGA-chaka! OOOGA-OOOGA-OOOGA-chaka!
Most excellently executed. Scap wins. I just wait to see how he did it.
“Execute” being used in more ways than one, I assume?
Nice….
…and EVIL!
Bravo. You’ve really outdone yourself!
Thankya kindly!
Meep!
Beaker, no reading comics until you clean up that bloody mess in the lab.
Wheeeeee!
Hah! Don’t know whether the central cabal escapes to throw wrenches into Scapula’s life in future, or to see him cock-of-the-walk… and certain to bring it all crashing down by his own efforts 😀
“…whether I hope…”, I meant to say 🙂
We shall see. I doubt they’re thinking much further than, “GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE!”
Brutal. But satisfying.
Just like my girlfriend. Bada-BOOM!
Good to see Hypnausea back in action.
Truly, this has to be the crafty bastard’s greatest work ever…
Where was Hypnausea in all of this? Take a guess, and I don’t blame anyone if that guess involves drugs or sodomy (the most obvious answer is often the right one).
I was guessing he was the one with the knife…
Catholic background, check. Heavy metal video and costume knowledge, check. SFX insider tricks, checkeroonie. Surprising big budget, check, check. Gullible enemies, check. Capable goons, check. Audience of loons, easily manipulated idiots, and sheeple, check that too. GIANT ego? Check.
Throw into pot, stir vigorously on high heat, let boil over, stab. Damn, why didn’t I get tickets to THIS concert?!
You forgot one thing: a crappy opening band that no one wants to see.
…and maybe a drum solo that goes on for ten minutes.
I must say thanks for putting so much effort into this. I am not disappointed…… unlike with so many other things this year! This has been a fantastic ride from the word go to the word AAAAEEEAAAH!
That was a whole new level of awesome
Thankya mucho!
and thus, all of their skills came together. scapula as bait. edgar for engineering. toxsick on delivery systems. hypnausia on gases. and babirus, I have no clue. Throgar on pack behavior. well. as far as I can tell, anyways.
By their powers combined, I am Captain Damnit!
We’ll see who was involved in the next comic.
Wow! So that’s awesome! Superbly rendered, Dada… Your colors are pretty amazing, too! And what Font is that? Love it! Sooooo, relaunch? Saint Scapula, Patron Saint of Bad guys?
Thankya kindly! The demon’s font is (I think) called ‘You Murderer’. You can download for free at Blambot.
