Description
A quick drawing I did on Sam and Max...On this date, March 3, 2004, LucasArts cancelled "Sam and Max: Freelance Police"
This pic is how I imagined Sam and Max after the cancellation and before Telltale Games picked up the license...

If only there was some way to bring the show back. Sam & Max deserve a second chance.

Wish there was...
Some episodes may have been a bit too much for Fox Kids' censors back then...

And we must get Telltale games back!

No. There's always hope. And I wanna do something to bring back Telltale Games! It's been bankrupt for too long. It's gonna need a lot of money and support!

This is the greatest representation of their hiatus before Telltale ever. It's also the funniest XD Β I love your comics Β

I was keeping tabs on Sam and Max after the cancellation by LucasArts. Β Bad Brain Entertainment tried to buy the rights to the unfinished Sam and Max game, but the negotiations broke down. Β And when Telltale made its existence known, I perked up...

Maybe there's still some hope left Β :3 Just maybe. . . one of these days, someone may release the beta, at the least.

Need to consider getting jobs as mercenaries if it happens again.
Max *in Peppy Hare's old Arwing*: Wheehee! Blowing stuff up in one of these things is so much fun!

Difficult when you're out of the job of being a freelance policeman.
Course Telltale took over did they, your thoughts on it?

I'm glad Telltale picked it up. I was eager to play a new Sam and Max game...

We should. I'm told we would've been allowed to build our own cases to play!

I like how nonchalant Sam and Max are despite being fired from LucasArts.
Wait, why are they at the unemployment building? They still have jobs as the Freelance Police. The Commissioner calls them up and have them do the crime fighting!

They probably lost all contact with the commissioner...

yeesh. Just any time now, some guy is gonna come in and Max is gonna be breaking some legs.

If it was one of the guys who was involved in the cancellation...

THEN the guy would end up losing his face.

Actually...they came to our office directly and just wouldn't leave us alone until we gave them a job! I tell ya, you can only take Max chainsawing a computer so many times!

That must have been the amount of time it took for the LucasArts license to expire before Telltale picked it up...

For Sam and Max that is...

indeed this does suck for them but few years later, telltale reborn them to today's best games in the telltale libary: Season 1, Through time and space and the devil's playhouse. played season 1, hoping to play the second game.

Good thing Telltale made those games... it gave me more reason to draw Sam and Max more...
π: 0 β©: 1
Damn. That must've sucked for those two, doesn't it?
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah.... and when Telltale picked up the license, I could imagine Sam and Max got out of the unemployment mess...
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmm. I can imagine that.

Heh, I like how anxious Max is in this photo. But regardless, this is pretty darn good.

Oh yeah, the cancellation for Freelance Police was a crap move by LucasArts.

I blame it on someone named Breen and Nelson...
π: 0 β©: 1
Yup. Those guys can die in a hole for all I care. Cancelling a game like that was a very terrible move.

How sad... I will never forgive what LucasArts did!

It definitely pains me to even bring back this bad memory...
