Darkness Entwined

I asked Kieran to delete the old Escapades thread, since both of those comics have officially died, though their archives can still be found on the site, at the bottom of the main page.

This is a new comic, going off a basic idea I came up with regarding a change to the Megaman/X storylines. What would happen if the Dark Energy found in MM8 wasn't a controlling evil, but just a powersource? That's the most I can say without revealing things. I really hope that as I continue this project, you'll enjoy reading it as much as I'm going to enjoy writing it.

#001: Awakening

As for the first comic, for anyone who doesn't know, the short redhead is one of Chocolate Ninja's characters, CN006, the blonde/purple haired girl is Usagi, made by Usagi. The two skeletal reploids are my own characters, the one standing with the girls is Altor, and the other Cronos.

So its gonna be a funnier comic overall this time around?

I like this idea of the skeletal reploids. Nice.

Yarr!!
Perverted skeleton reploids?

So, I take it from the banner image that the overall theme will involve reploid brother relationships? Should be interesting. Can't wait to see more.

More-or-less. The brothers in this universe are generally considered to be more powerful for combat, since the two are built usually to play off each others skills, eg. long range one, short range other, etc.

Anyways, I've made another DE, since I had the comic-making urge today.

#002: Synthesis

For the record, it's weird to make sprites dressing. I essentially had to redress myself to figure out arm placement, and retie my own ponytail about 4 times to figure out hair position and such for Altor.

I'm going to try for an either once or twice a week update schedule in general, leaning more towards the once-a-week one. The Prologue's not going to be too long, it's just necessary to set up some ideas and things that are necessary for this story.

Captain Awesome would be a sweet name.

XD! I'd laugh if that designation has already been taken.

I like the dialogue in this, it has a nice flow and overall feel. Definitely starting to get a feel for their personalities. ( Not that we don't already know em =P).

Keep it up cron bon, I have high hopes for this one =3.

I like what I see. Which means you should keep making these comics. Like the custom sprites very much, too.

#003: What's in a Name?

Thanks goes to Shift for helping me in City of Heroes to get the shot of Captain Awesome and The Sidekick Kid. And the lazy bugger leaning back in the chair is Namiki Izo, owned by Nemesis/StairmasterNem/TheFrogKing/JuiceMasterFlex/WhateverHeIsNow.

That has GOT to be a record for falling of the update wagon. 2 comics in and I already can't keep a schedule. I should in theory be able to manage atleast one or two comics every week, though I should really not make any guarantees due to my rather laughable track record regarding that. >>;;

Well, suck to be "C4PT4IN AW3S0M3"

Fast ones eats slow ones, doesn't they.

Elusis · **Posted:** Fri Mar 30, 2007 4:40 pm

Hmm, yep there personalities are all there, the way we know 'em.

#004: Light up My Room

Another update, atleast I'm getting better at that.

As a small explanation, Year-One refers to the first year the reploid is in existance, as you can guess. They're not supposed to have access to any armour whatsoever, and are mainly used around the labs as assistants or workers, until they've been online for one year for a decent amount of observation to make sure they've got no bugs in their OS/personality/whatever. Any Year-Ones found with armour files are marked for Retirement, effective at that immediate moment. So, Cronos and Altor are doing something VERY taboo by having these.

Elusis · **Posted:** Mon Apr 16, 2007 8:19 am

I'm really liking the concept so far, keep it up. :O

<Cronos> Captain Awesome falls not under these puny laws!

But yeah... those two are so veeeery gonna meet the scrap heap if they get caught.

Cronos · **Posted:** Thu Jan 29, 2009 5:16 am

Hey, look, a 2-year late update!

That... is pretty lame, Cronos. =P

Ngamer01 · **Posted:** Fri Jan 30, 2009 4:49 pm

At least it wasn't a Rickroll or something related.
