seriously holy shit that was amazing umm
How about the (pickled) heroes of RetroforceGo, Hamza, Sterling and the rest plot on where to get the darn Dreamcast and for some absurd reason they finally manage to get one but they still have to deal with the subway zombies.
In the meantime, the gang should start climbing up the mecha looking for an opening. Someone manages to find a blue glowing spot on the Destructinator and right before they stab it, someone points out a sign that says 10 bajillion volts, do not touch and beckons them into the robot.
I forgot what I was thinking at this point, something about Raiders of the lost Ark.
I'm not sure where this should go next, but eventually the gang should find out about the game, then call up Anthony and convice him to provoke Ashly into dumping in his bed as a distraction so he can try to turn off the 360.
I dunno what should happen next week, but now that you've set up the whole "Not now, dad" thing, I feel he MUST show up near the end of the story and save everyone from the cockpit of a Metal Gear REX, presumably right before or right after Ash or myself scream something the lines of, "okay, NOW, Dad!"
That is exactly what I would film if I had a few million dollars to produce HAWP with.
As for suggestions I'd really like to see a gecko crash in through the Burch house and then Papa Burch runs off and dresses up as old snake then goes on to fight the gecko.
AWESOME WORK MIKEY!
ummmm... ok, gotta get back to the crew. The failcast crew offers their best hospitality and explain taking refuge in the city sewers. more recognizeable dtoid community shows up as bit players (or at least hints at their avatars?)
Failcast happens to have the dreamcast they're looking for, along with Samit-Bot, a modified pitching/batting robot that corrects the team's grammar ...
It's that good.
I think we should go back to the gang. They get flushed out of their safe room and keep running from the forum trolls. They're ambushed and half of the team are forced into an abandoned subway car and are surrounded with no hope of escape (the other half continue on presumably to find the Dreamcast).
Just when it looks like it's it for the trapped survivors, BOOM! Deus Ex Machina in the form of the Destructor-toid controlled by Ashly punching through the street and grabbing the subway car! It ends with Ashly getting ready to perform some menial task with the subway car (as per the suggestion by The Incredible Edible Egg), not knowing that the heroes are trapped inside.
Speaking of ol' JT, anyone remember when Niero covered his court appearance and his phone went off in the middle of it? Good times, good times.
Very nice twist! The comics were pretty awesome beforehand, but this strip just cranked it up past eleven. Cannot wait for the next one, but I'm wondering if its going to keep topping itself every issue like this. I certainly hope so.
Ok so for the next page there should be ninjas that appear behind Tom saying "Should we deal with this problem" and Tom reply to that is "No, we may use him down the road. His knowledge of video games can prove to be useful" Alarm noise set off and you see the whole Dtoid team on a monitor (Necros saying the goodwill isn't that too far away). The page ends with Tom saying "Release it"
Actually, I'll still take a shot at it based off of what has been written.
==========================================
Row 1 Frame 1: Niero spits in Tom's face again. This time something can be seen in the background, 2 glowing yellow lights, a familiar shape...yet...different.
Row 1 Frame 2: Tom wipes his face again, the Mr. Destructoid helmet now fully visible, yellow lights glowing, weird things attached to it, modified for Tom's needs. Tom: "Ah, you haven't seen what I had in store for your helmet yet, have you?"
Row 1 Frame 3: Close up of Niero looking at the warped Destructoid helmet, the eyes starting to change color from yellow to white. The text from Frame 2 spill over on to this frame.
Row 2 Frame 1: Tom is seen in portrait, behind him, the Destructoid helmet's eyes lit white now, Niero still hanging there.
Tom: "The president has already gotten acquainted with it. If he liked games before...well...lets say after it's through with him, he'll be begging me to lead the 'war on videogames'. I figured, hey, they had him brought to me, so maybe I can do something to convince him of my cause.".
Niero: "Heh, your bluffing. Nothing could be that bad."
Row 2 Frame 2: A close up of Niero's bust, now drowned out in the blinding white light being shone from the helmet. Little ghostly sprites/assets from the game E.T., and other various bad games like Aquaman and Daikatana are seen floating around Niero. The visible edges of Niero show him slowly start to disappear, becoming digital information being absorbed into the helmet.
Niero: "Wha?"
Tom: "Haha, well, you'll find out soon enough."
Row 3 Frame 1: Tom stands back in front of his computer, having pressed a button. The monitor now shows our heroes in the safe room of the subway. From the right edge of the frame, the edge of the light from the helmet can be seen, as can the last yell of Niero, getting smaller as he is fully digitized into the helmet.
Niero: Yell of pain and agony. Goes silent as he disappears.
Tom: "Well then...lets see how our would be 'heroes' are doing. Ah, I've got a surprise for them."
Optional Last Frame: Tom is shown from the front, his frontside lit by his computer monitors, Ninja's behind him. Tom is posed just like Liquid Ocelot in that one scene at the end of act 1 of MGS4(it's a left handed fist pump).
Tom: (yelling)"ACTIVATE IT!!!"
================================
Whoo...long post is long. Anyhow, feel free to take liberties with the dialog and maybe some of the angles and such to make it flow more to how you think is best for the page. Big jist of the page is(as I envisioned), Niero gets digitized as a form of torture, Tom turns his attention to Jim and company, and very slight allusions in Toms words that there are others working toward very similar goals.
I know I keep trying to plug myself into the comic in the last 3 weeks, but I want to see my face in digital ink. Above all else I'm sorry for being a douche and keep up the awesome work dude.
Also, I like Anthony's idea for near the end
You also need to get a comfrontation between TJ and Jim in which TJ yacks on and Jim just punches him in the face or something
Everybody pours out of the room and the Failcast crew leads the way as they try to find a Goodwill with a Dreamcast to fuel the Ikaruga.
King: It's this way
Hito: No way dude it's over here
Madninja: You're both wrong, it's over there!
Yashoki as a witch just continues crying in a corner in the fetal position, hysterically crying things like "we're all fucked, we're so fucked.. everbody is going to die.."
The failcast crew (ironically dressed as the L4D cast)split off into different directions trying to lead, while the dtoid crew stays behind, looking at eachother, confused. Then they hear each one of failcast get picked off one by one by their own respective special infected.
Topher then shoots yashoki in the face and says "You're all retarded, it's this way" while standing infront of a comedically placed "Goodwill" sign with an arrow.
They turn a corner and climb the ladder that leads directly into the warehouse of the goodwill. It's dark, but all of a sudden you see glowing red eyes shining in the darkness...
An evil, demon posessed Nobi Nobi boy sticks its face out of a bin of stuffed animals, and starts swallowing everything it can get to.. and it's eyeing that dreamcast...
needs some sort of conclusion but that's all I got...Maybe the heroes find out about Jackson somehow...?
Meanwhile back in the safe house, our heroes battle their way to the surface and finally come across the goodwill store holding the dreamcast. All the while their exploits are being reported from a distance by JOURNALISM expert Geraldo Beedog.
