Here’s the deal. JoE Shieh and I, inspired by the Laserpony Studios collaborative comics that can be found over at Nedroid (here is a sample), did an improvised trade-off short. We started this, the first of many to come, a couple weeks ago. I did the first panel, he did the second, and so on, each with no clue how the other would continue it. Okay, you get the point.

How appropriate that E3 is going on right now. While in Louisville, I unearthed these age old “design docs” for a beat ’em up called THE THING: CLOBBERIN’ TIME. Our research puts this somewhere around Earth Date 199X, when I was attending Middle School. Let’s have a closer look, okay? Please click each image to enlarge and study.
Just look at that sweet cover art. The game is apparently disc-based.
The first stage is a doozy: “The Streets.” Note the appearance of my obsession with enemies. Also, I’m pretty sure the bosses exist based on the Toybiz toys I had scattered around me.
Check out The Mines! One can only assume that Hulk has been captivated by some sort of mind control device, thus making him your sworn enemy. 
It figures that Fantastic Four HQ would be loaded with such a nefarious Trash Compactor mini-boss.
The frightening mini-boss trend continues in Latveria. But will The Thing be able to escape the might of… TERRAX?
Note the grim mystery surrounding Doc Doom. Then go look at the cover of the game again and realize his face is visible there. But he is not your final foe. That honor belongs to…
THE MASTER COMPUTER (gasp!).
And we end it all on a somewhat revolutionary note: a first-person escape sequence!
It’s Memorial Day and I’m in Louisville watching Land of the Lost episodes on SciFi. Right now they’re going absolutely buck wild with the prismatic effects in the ominously titled “The Possession.” Baby brontosaurus wheeling around logs while Chaka carries a hypnotic, power-transferring baton.
I’m buried in a ton of crap I wish I could bring back to Hoboken with me. Lots of manga. I mean LOTS of manga. The cons outweigh the pros, because as much as I love already being smothered by media in my thimble of a room, adding more to the pile doesn’t really entice me. I do, however, want to bring back a bunch of crappy old art/comics to scan and post. I have one scanned already that I may post later.
For now, face this new challenger.

At long last, chapter 5 has come to a shocking conclusion! Stay tuned, though, because this baby’s tale has only just begun…
