I'm guessing you had a part in this one, Susan?

Nonetheless, I've noticed a substantial increase in both time inbetween taking damage and getting healed aswell as heals given when playing Zoey. One of these days, I'd like to play Zoey and, using my deepest possible voice, ask someone to heal me.

Awww dang...
I thought it was my turn to "heal" Zoey....

Funny though x)

 

[Lord_Ascendant]

Oy...Those guys are incorrigible...

 

[microhive]

Haha! Good one!

 

[CrystalShadow]

Lol.

Knowing valve, they probably do have statistics like that. >.<

I wish Valve would make a Left4Dead team that consisted of 3 WOMEN and one guy.

Imagine shooting zombies in the face with a shotgun, using an avatar that looks like your grandmother.

After being attacked by the Boomer, Grandma Zombie Killer would kindly tell you to go wash your hands.

THAT would be awesome!

Wait a minute. They're trapped in an infected city; surrounded by broken buildings, burning cars, and constantly pursued by zombie hordes.

HOW ON EARTH DID SHE GET A PAPERCUT???

Nope, Stolen Pixels' genius is all Shamus, all the time.

I do, however, feel Zoey's pain.

Maybe she was attacked by an extremely vicious infected book?

I've become something of a follower of this strip. One of the better offerings that the Escapist has to offer, well above that of Apocalypse Lane, the latest Unforgotten Realms episodes, and many others.

LOL X'D Noooooooooooooooooooooo not a papercut! Hurry get her to the E.R. NOW!!!

Do you need some Aspirin, or a bandaid, or maybe Morphine? How about all three? QUICK SOMEBODY CALL 911!

This happens a lot when it comes to the more obvious jokes. A lot of people that write comics for the newspapers will talk about getting a cool idea for a joke and then have people think they copied it from someone who's work came out a few days beforehand. It's not quite as much delay with web comics, but this is definitely one of the easier jokes to make about L4D.

They seem to have a system for determining who heals Zoey that is based on ho close to porn the experience was. Also, I like how Zoey's face is slightly amused instead of a mask of RAGING ANGER!!!!
