Description Just for the hell of it, I'll put "yaoi" and "yuri" as some of the keywords just to see if it gets any more bites because of it. Consider it an experiment.

I think Dr. Blanke came out terrible on the second to last panel. He actually looks badass, and that's just wrong. But, he's back to how he's supposed to look in the last panel- a loser trying to look like a badass.

Next episode, Nulle makes her appearance.

Dang, I love Blueniversal ConQuest so much. There are SO many bits of awesomeness packed in here that my head might explode.

I'm especially fond of the "special moves" listed in the third panel. I tried entering several of them on my computer's keypad, and they felt preeety familiar, especially the Sureyoucan. And I'm particularly interested in this "Real Man Combo"...

The only thing that feels a bit off is the first panel. Specifically, it doesn't look "tropical" enough. Sure, Dr. Blanke says it's tropical, and Chroma IS wearing that indicative outfit, but readers would require a little more to really grasp the feeling of tropical-ness. As for HOW you could do that, well, there are a lot of different options, and the choice is yours. You could implement a few wavy lines, maybe a bit of heat distortion. Perhaps you could have Chroma glisten slightly with sweat (Ooooh baby, in the words of James Earl Telos). Or you could go the overt route and just have the place be a bit brighter and implement wavy "HEAT" sound effects. Or "SUNNY" or "BEACH, OOOO" or something. Simply put, I'd say just think tropical and figure out the best way to get the point across for you.

My silly suggestions aside, I love this stuff. Can't wait for the next installment and the random references it will bring.

...By the way, Blanke, shouldn't we direct more people to the semi-nude picture of Null on the far right side of the first panel?

Pssst, it's not really set on "Tropical." Dr. Blanke is just saying that because the air conditioning doesn't work and it's too dang hot in that thing.

He has no intention of addressing this issue conventionally.

I'd elaborate, but that'd ruin a good punchline down the road.

That's actually another video monitor, if you're talking about the first panel.

Ah yes, the Rick image.

Sorry if I haven't got any critique ready, been quite burned out in terms of art-things lately.
