#145: Gloat Time

[K.ur]

Everybody made fun of shield guy for majoring in shieldology in college. But who will be laughing when a fiery inferno comes? Not shield guy, because he'll be too busy hiding behind his shield.

When you major in Tanking, you take damage management very serious. Let's hope he also took extra courses in Elemental resistance and Crit Immunity. Not every university (game) includes that in Tanking.

If the next comic isn't a single panel of one-third of the building going up in a fantastic explosion, I'm going to demand to speak to the manager.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

I hope you like your smartass extra crispy.

Only 3 belts?
We have a Final Fantasy character who is showing restraint.

 

[Breywood]

Much as I'd like to see not-Sephiroth eat some bhut jolokia flavored humble pie, I'm expecting this to get even more depressing.

 

[RJ 17]

Is she going to mispronounce it?

It's Ignateus, which does not start with Ignis...

It's either that, or she's going to use a more powerful version of fire. A "firaga" to Ignateus' "Fire", if you will.

 

[Rebel_Raven]

Dang, would have liked to see her rampage a bit before the boss fight. Strike some fear into enemies, see them run, explosions, etc.

This is good, though.

At least they are still ridiculously big belts, he's not a minimalist after all.

Also, Grey and Cory, I really love the way you drew the crystal arm and sword, thing, it looks really sharp and shiny.

***** gonna get they asses DEEP FRIED.

 

[Kajin]

Oh god, it's Not-Sephiroth. I'd forgotten about him. Don't do it, Fluttershy! You're the Not-Aerith of the bunch, this won't end well!

Ahem; Sword Guy was the not-Aerith of the bunch. The characters don't map directly; ersatz-Tifa is the leader of ersatz-AVALANCHE, not ersatz-Barrett; ersatz-Vincent is not the broody one of the bunch; there's no ersatz-Yuffie, near as I can tell (unless it's Erin), to say nothing of Red XIII (unless it's Rad)*. If anything, Althea's the not-Cloud of the bunch.

*Does that make Gunny the not-Cid, by process of elimination? He does have experience with rockets, I'd imagine.

This should be interesting... wonder how it's gonna play out (and if that shield guy will end up lucking because he's prepared...)
