↓ Transcript
Reclaimer : "Little did I know that the first thing I would need to reclaim would come to me."

[Reclaimer Command]: "Pack it in, soldier. We're terminating this sim now. We've got a blip headed in bound. You've just officially graduated from the Reclaimer Program."

Reclaimer: Copy that. Just clearing out the last of your little traps now. You really need to make these harder.

[Reclaimer Command]: "First of all, those are not 'traps', let alone mine. They're programmed by the computer to teach you tactics."

"Secondly, 'harder' has just found you. We want you to check out whatever's headed our way. In fact, at the rate it's moving, it's going to be on you in a matter of minutes. Time to put on your game face."

Reclaimer: "I've always had my 'game face' on. It's the only thing that's still mine."

"But I played their game, and found and quickly found out it was anything but. Everything was changing, and the universe was already beginning to spiral into insanity, violence, bloodshed."

Copy, sir. Headed to the armory to trade these dummy weapons for something with a little more OOMF, then I'll check out your bogey.

"The world was about to change, and I would find that I had a front row seat."

    Is it Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays now?

    Love the spiker effect on the middle left box.

    re: Shu Sam Chen – It actually always has been a MWF schedule. I think the period time lapses between updates, though, might obscure that from time to time.

    And believe it not, there’s not a single spike in that shot. There are, however, two fusion cores, a trip mine, and a plasma grenade. :)

    Really? So where did the white streaks come from? I’ve never seen them anywhere other than when spike ‘nades explode.

    As for the trip mine, when you mention it, you can just see a tiny bit of muzzle flash left over from the shot. Or is that just me? Or the plasma pistol glow?

    Oh, and I like the return of colour. The last few ones were good in a sepia way, but nothing beats faded-to-almost-but-not-quite-black colour.

    Shu, just to let you know. Spike nades explode golden, not white. Otherwise, no comments from me this comic.

    re: Shu Sam Chen – I think it’s castoff from the fusion cores going nova. I’d have to go back and look at the footage though and see.

    That would have to be plasma pistol glow. I’ve been filming these shots in a game variant that only uses grenades and equips the characters with plasma pistols, no weapons on the map.

    Yeah, it’ll probably bounce back and forth between the Gloomy/Old Timey and Gloomy filters for a bit, as I go between flashback narrative and flashback re-enactment. Just a little artistic flare to hopefully keep things interesting.

    let me guess, this bogey is Ferial. Isn't it?
