* Y… yeah! We’ll be strong! We’ll free everyone!* Six, right? We just have to get six…
* And we’ll do it together, right?

Fun little detail: I actually had some gold paint that I used on the flowers (& Asriel's dust), even though I knew it wouldn't really show in the scanned version. But at least the originals glitter nicely.

Rifles?
Huh,so the time for the 7 other humans that fell was pretty short then..

I'm glad you brought this detail up, because a lot of thought went into it! First off, Undertale tricks you into thinking that the game takes place in 201X. But it was actually Chara who fell in 201X (the opening scene later continues as a flashback where Asriel finds Chara) and Frisk falls somewhere in the far future. Remember, video cameras already existed around the time Asriel was born.
So, if this scene takes place in 201X, why did I draw the village looking like that? Well, I felt like drawing it too modern would distract from the story. Also, if the village was very technologically advanced it would have probably been the police force who attacked Asriel, instead of the whole village. But I figured that if the village was small and remote (perhaps Mt. Ebott is in the middle of Asia, who knows), it could look more basic and the villagers would be armed with basic weapons like rifles.

I felt the exact same way about Chara after thinking it over for a while. Chara wasn't so bad to start off with, they were just really confused and didn't know how to deal with coming from such a harsh world into a loving, accepting one. After they got attached, they wanted to protect them, but saw their desire to make peace with humans as the same as marching to their deaths since humans are so cruel and they came up with this plan to show them the reality of what humans were like.
Nicely done. I really like this series.

I meant I agree with the way the artist is portraying Chara. That Chara was more justified than we think and not just inherently evil for the sake of it as most people assume.

so like chara suffered a bad childhood or something like that?

Well, that part which is kind of obvious, but I mean their plan for Asriel to take their soul. They didn't try to make the monsters hate humans just for the sake of chaos, they did it to make the monsters protect themselves from the humans because they cared about the monsters. The game makes Chara's motives very vague and a lot of the fandom just assumes they were evil and wanted to create war just because, but this comic suggests that Chara had good intentions even if their means weren't exactly right and that's the point which I agree with.

In the 8th-ish panel, I noticed a painful detail. The humans are confused about Chara and Asriel talking to each other. I think there's hesitation there... like maybe the humans would have attacked if the situation had been explained.
...Was that intentional or am I looking into it too much?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I did think that the humans were hesitating a bit. Possibly out of fear, but who knows, maybe talking would have actually helped? In that particular panel though, I thought they would also be very confused, since the moster seems to be rambling to itself.

Oh My...
Who was Toriel holding, by the way? Chara (canon name for the 1st kid) was placed inside of a coffina nd Asriel was dust)

In the comic's script I do always call them Chara because it's easier, but in the comic I never name them because I like how in the game you can give them whatever name you want.

I knowww, this story is very sad! Listening to "Undertale" in the background when the monsters tell you this story certainly does not help... (I'm happy if I managed to capture the same feeling though!)

You certainly did catch that feeling! :"D That's why its so potent. Really wonderful job~
