Description

This was a monumental undertaking. I didn't realize when we started that each piece was going to end up being rather a separate work of art.

The concept came about when thinking on the 'elements' of the Nobodies in Organization XIII. Most of them are pretty obvious, but the general acceptance is that Xemnas has the power of Nothingness.
But...what the hell is it that he does to illustrate this power? How is flipping around with lightsabers and making force shields the power of nothing?

And so this comic was born.

Also, If you'd like to see the rather amusing originals of Xaldin and Xigbar, we put them up in our scraps here: [link]





I feel so ashamed. I've used background gradients and cheap glow-blurs, as per Saeru's insistance, in the post-production of these drawings. XP
Originally, they were all very nice 100% marker images. However, the cardstock they were rendered on was not a very noticable grain nor tint, so they thus ended up looking like a dirty scan. And once the backgrounds were then cleaned up, they looked too plain. So we ended up with some "enhancements" to pull it all together (albeit cheesily) since you kids seem to like the digital thing. I'm sick of dealing with this piece right now, but I'll revisit its presentation at a later date, once I know how to fix it. :/

On a positive note, I still avoid using black at all when coloring their coats. Just about every color but black at this point. How long can the trend continue?
On an even more positive note, Pooh gets torched. >;D

In regards to Xemnas's power: all matter first arose from primordial nothingness, making power over Nothing the power of Creation itself.

It WAS copy right infringment. Bt now that Disnaey has bought out the franchise, AND shut down LucasArts, (Look it up) well, now we have to find something else to poke fun at!

I.
AGREE.
Ethereal blades should have a little more of a blank-space look, since that is what ethereal means (otherworldly, ghostly, air). And if Mansex has control over nothingness, then that is what he should use as weapons; impenetrable nothingness. (KH:SF/DMC:SF ftw)

I don't know if someone has mentioned this, but now that I think about it, there is no copy right infringment. Disney does have Star Wars themed stuff. You most likely drew this before that happened, but going through my faves and seeing this made me giggle on how Disney and Lucas Arts work together now ^^''''

(That and Disney owns EVERYTHING!)

THEY ARE NOT LIGHT SABERS! THEY ARE AIREIAL BLADES!
Jeez, read some wiki once and a while why don't you?

I kid, I kid, realy though, what else could they have given him? Xehanort's heartless was already the element of Darkness, and the whole concept of Organization 13 is that they are made from nothingness, so naturaly their leader would have control over nothingness. I mean, the rest of the organization basicly had every other major class of weapon, they didn't have much choise did they?

I'm actually pretty glad there were Star Wars references in Kingdom hearts. Go Nomura. I mean, if I was making a game, there sure as hell would be references to important parts of my childhood. *chuckles* And light-saber wielding silver-haired men.

Axel is even cooler now for burning that annoying bear. XD
I thought the same thing about Xemnas's weapons. In fact I specifically did a search to see if anyone already did a comic on it. I mean allot of the other members have unique powers and/or weapons that you hardly ever see and then when it came to their leader, you get the typical red light sabers. Star Wars is gonna sue somebody.

One good thing, one bad thing.

Good thing: Someone other than me finally realizes Xigbar's real element, NOT gravity.

Bad thing: Xemnas doesn't use LIGHT SABERS! He uses what are know as Aerial Blades. They're tubes of solid nylon that generate powerful energy by means of plasma. You can only wield them with powerful gloves (like Org. 13's leather gloves), and they're wielded on the tip, so they portrude from your palms.

Dachimotsu In reply to Dachimotsu [2007-09-07 23:02:33 +0000 UTC]

Aerial Blades are extremely light, hence the name Aerial Blades, which is why they're so fast. And since they're made of nylon, they can change length and diameter.

Also, Xemnas's element is Void.
