So there's a Penny Arcade-made Tekken 6 comic... photo

So, yeah -- a Tekken 6 comic. That's cool, I guess. It seems that Penny Arcade and Namco Bandai are playing nice together. We already got a cool cross-promotional thing out of it, and now we have a comic.

At the Tekken 6 official site, you can link to this limited comic strip. A press release tells us that the comic will be a six-part series on the past of "one of Tekken 6's elusive characters." So far it's about a kangaroo named Roger. There's only one page right now, not counting the amazing cover where the kangaroo punches a couple of fighter jets right out of the sky. I don't even know what's going on anymore.

Comic or not, I'm looking forward to the release of Tekken 6 (Xbox 360, PS3 and PSP) this fall. Are you?

The simulated page turning on the Konami Page is amazing. I spent a few minutes just playing with that.

Tekken is awesome.

Penny Arcade is not.

I'm just looking forward to drunk tekken nights where I laugh my ass off at the concept of a bear and kangaroo fighting.

Oh man, that kangaroo-punching-an-airplane thing would be so awesome if that was in the real game.

The title image has to be the one of the best I've ever seen.

A kangaroo punching a fighter-plane and destroying it...

Sweet! I'd always though Tekken was a little too funny. Glad to see they're working to correct that.

It'd be more awesome if the pound was a rocket launcher that shoots out mini-kangaroos.
