Yeah, that's great!
Just wish I knew when I made my firefight page, so I could've included him in the group. But as it was at the time, I wasn't sure if there was something else you were planning to do then.
But if you still want to do your minion interrogation page, it can take place in the factory basement.

Yeah, sorry. I'm having trouble with replies and stuff (dA seems to hate me right now :/ ) Yes, Dario would be perfect for interrogation. He's not really evil, and always ready to help out...unfortunately the heroes probably don't know that and are probably ready to beat it out of him (how heroic...). Just a suggestion

It's true it was a lot of hard work.

the page is awesome XDDDDD
"Gandalf the blue" is a great name for Pippin. XD Especially since Pippin is one of the Hobbits... ahahahaha xDDD great.
@Wren No worries youre a CUTE pet bird. Not the cutest but still cute
and omg Silver Titan is TALKING?! Awesme.
But I don't get the whole John thing... what happend in the tournament?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's a slight running joke from the previous chapter.
John was talking to Watchamacallit during the tree fight and Wat made a comment about how he recognized John as the dog guy from the AFL that never finished his fights.
He was doing well, and then he just suddenly stopped. Vougner is a little embarrassed to be remembered for that one thing.
...but since when was Pippin a hobbit?
π: 0 β©: 1
Ah so that is it. He didn't finished his fights. xD Ok got it.
In Lord of the Rings one of the Hobbits is called Pippin... short for Perigrin.
Thats why it was double funny for me.
π: 0 β©: 1
You're right.
I suppose there IS a hobbit named Pippin.
'
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah. xD
and now I just read the german Wiki Artikle about the Name Pippin. XD
It could be 1. from the fanconian word for "Little child" or 2. from the germanian word-stem "bib" which means something along the lines "small, easy moving thing" or 3. from a childish soundword used for bird-twittering or 4. from an old German word which means "Piper"
I think all of them are rather cute and funny thinking about Pippin. Especially thinking that he is not small. XD
Ok I'll shut up now. XD That was just the German Wiki it's not necessarily true.

I think I got it from behindthename.com that tells me the meaning is "traveler".
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah I read it too.
Quite intresting that the meaning changes when you translate it in another language.

ahhh - awesome! love the john vauger part! but I can't remember - what exactly happened to him in AFL?
π: 0 β©: 1
He dropped out.
He was doing fine for a while. Was winning most of them, if I recall, but then he just stopped fighting.
Chickenpaddy made a page in the previous chapter where he's talking to Watchamacallit who only remembers John as "the guy who didn't finish all his fights". I thought it'd be funny to bring it up again to embarrass John further.

oh yeah. now i remember.

It's really hard to imagine your panels being any more fun to take in, but it happened once more. And without the aid of color. Such great interactions here!

I try to stick to the truth.
Thank you.

Gandalf the blue! Haha, that made me laugh. xD

I made a pop reference you can appreciate!

It says so right on your front page!

Is Ripley technologically inclined at all?
π: 0 β©: 1
technologically inclined?
π: 0 β©: 1
Does she know what a computer is for?
Or is a pulley system the most advanced technology she's acquainted with?
π: 0 β©: 1
She is familiar with such advanced technology "Mechanical-based lifeforms, machines, and even computers. The thing is technology by most races on her planet is referred to as a very primitive and unnecessary life style, very few civilizations use it and many that did were wiped out. Ripley would in turn see the use of any technological or mechanic-based construct as weak or of no use.
π: 0 β©: 1
What, is magic the 'in' and 'hip' thing on her planet?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well you can say that.
π: 0 β©: 0
There should be an operational computer down here somewhere you could use...
π: 0 β©: 0
Now you know what their going to have to find now right? The mini bar!
(maybe a fire extinguisher)
π: 0 β©: 1
That would hit the spot right now.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, you found the vehicles. Now the question is how to get them up to the surface through tons of wreckage, something we couldn't figure out. lol! Just kidding, pal.
Splendid page laying the ground work for others within the group. More I say, more! lol! At each one's own pace, of course.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hellz yeah!
I figure there are all sorts of stuff the other heroes can do with this space. Silver Titan is already making use of it somehow...
And maybe there's a ramp leading out somewhere?
If not, Pippin could always drive them through a portal leading outside.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, let's hope so. We are going to need anything we can get our hands on to win this war.
... Didn't think of that. My bad. XD
π: 0 β©: 1
It was a legitimate question.

Nice page - looks as though the explosion didn't do very much damage! I think these exploration scenes should go before the flame clones arrive - since they're still getting to know each other. Nice characterization as always - look forward to seeing it in colour.
π: 0 β©: 1
This will definitely be happening before the attack.
And yeah, I figure since the explosion blew the base into two halves, so this factory floor is in a corner that didn't collapse.

More adventures with the bored man with the raised eyebrow.
John is fun to draw isnΒ΄t he?
Man I wish I could have joined SW too. It seems like so much fun.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, you're missing out!
...
Shame on you.

...I have seen the great canyons of awesomeness, and I am forever changed!
π: 0 β©: 1
You're being a little dramatic.
But I appreciate.
And hey, Jeanne could have something to drive around in if you want?
π: 0 β©: 1
Go crazy!
I can't wait to see what she can do!
π: 0 β©: 1
Hey wow, what a find indeed! Lucky break for the newbies. Maybe there's some fire extinguishers down there to help the newbies left upstairs being attacked by the flame clones? I love your banter and characterizations too ^^
