I love the politically correct version of Hal- I mean First Person Shooter that takes place on an artificial world where differences are not solved through diplomatic talks.

EDIT: Quick question, since each member of their race is part of this religious organization, are they still taxed?

Do you think someone should tell Corey and Grey that "The Chosen" is already a taken, they're the evil alien invaders with a cultish tendencies in Firefall.

But do they have a flag?

 

[enginieri]

Not only it's a flag, but a WHITE flag, AND has a ICE CREAM CUP in it.... The Galaxy is triple doomed to join their non-traditional blah-blah !!

 

[008Zulu_v1legacy]

No! If we all pull together, we can have a flag bigger and grander than theirs. We cannot allow a flag gap!

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Noooooooooooo! Their flag is bigger than ours! We're DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!

Again, I'm confused as to who they are parodying.

Also, for some reason I actually like Gunnery Sarge's look. He kinda looks cooler than the Chief.

Umm... Erin Delis Alone? I assume that's a typo? (It's in the URL and the tab name.)

Anyway, I think I knew this was coming, but I like the delivery

...It's... It's a parody of Halo and Master Chief,currently setting up a Capture The Flag scenario.

Erin isn't rolling her eyes in the last panel because she thinks Sarge is dumb, she's rolling her eyes because she's super salty that she was wrong.

Sorry Erin, but you're just gonna have to accept the fact that this world runs on the indisputable rule of flags. Flags rule all, flags are life, the Chosen have the biggest flag, therefore you lose. Suck it.

Well, yeah, that part was obvious. But when did having taller flags meaning superiority have anything to do with Halo? Or any video game?

I imagine the next comic or comics will have them tell/make Sarge they should take the enemy flag to prove who owns the place once and for all. Because when you fight in a real war flags don't really matter but in game land normal rules don't apply.

I believe they run on 'mandatory donations' rather than 'taxes'.

Lol, good one!

 

[FPLOON]

I should had known... Whoever puts down the bigger flag in the name of their nation wins by default...

Other than that, I guess it's time to bring in the big guns... again...

 

[Mr.Mattress]

I notice this Comic doesn't have a title. I say it should be called "Flag Diplomacy".

Also, I don't know if "Sarge" is calling for the war to end because of their flag's size, or if he think's they're surrendering (It is a White Flag) and thus the war is going to end. It's probably the former since that's what everyone else is saying, but I think the latter would be funnier (Like, they were itching to kill them all and the Aliens chose to surrender instead and the Humans have to abide by the rules of law).

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Its the size of the flag that matters isn't it?

 

[sageoftruth]

They have a taller flag than us! All hope is lost!

Well, it looks like there's no other option then. We must steal their flag!
