Yesterday marked one year since the inception of Reclaimer! It’s actually a little hard to believe that things are still going this strong a year later. When I started Reclaimer, I didn’t really know what to expect. I knew that I wanted to write and produce a Halo-based comic, but I had no idea if I could something like that. It’s been a growing process, and it’s been a lot of fun so far. I have you all to thank for a lot of that. I would have enjoyed doing this, even if I’d been the only one to read it, but having an audience to play to makes this a thousand times more worthwhile to me – and you all have been immensely patient with me and gone through the growing pains with me. It’s been an awesome year, and I look forward to another fantastic year with all you wonderful people.
I had hoped to try to have the first official Reclaimer short story written in time for this posting, but alas, life has again gotten in the way. For my wife and me, this is the middle of our pre-winter prep for our farm, so a lot of my free time in the evenings this week has been spend getting stalls ready for horses and repairing barns. I do plan to work on a couple of Reclaimer projects over the weekend, though, so hopefully I’ll have something to show for that come Monday.
Awesome Jim, loving the story unfolding. It seems like so many things happening at once. Can’t wait to see the chase scene!
Is Archimedes something like the halo rings? If so then this story line is ringing closely with Haloverse. However methinks you have a different direction for reclaimerverse to go.
BTW Jim awesome year it has been, Sword and I have been following your progress for a while and i think i speak for him when i say we are quite proud of you for it!
Hmm, the protagonist teleports away, I think that’s a new twist on the whole “bad-guy-captures-protagonist-and-monologues-his-whole-plan-before-attempting-to-kill-the-protagonist-but-failing-in-an-epic-fight” ploy…. Great work Jim!
I READ THE FIRST 72 IN A ROW AND THEY KEEP GETTIN BETTER . STORY TELLING IS TRULY YOUR GOD GIVIN TALENT.I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE GUNS EXPLOSIONS AND BOOBS IF YOU CAN FIT IT INTO THE STORY LINE,GREAT JOB ANYWAY ,
I foresee shell casing littering the ground like shiny brass jewels in fairly short order.
Great one Jim, guess I got ahead of myself on my last guess but I like where this is going….................where IS this going?
Nice, great comic. Oh, and RC goodies comming soon. Horay!!
Wow, the time change is wierd.
According to the date mark, the comic was released tommorow.
Lol, that reminds me of a line from American Gods.
It’s been a long time since you’ve been on halo, Bearded.
Boobs on Halo?
I know there is a choice between genders, but I thought that only affected the voice.
Jim, you sure can build a story up, but can we have a killer fight scene, soon? Great job, can’t wait to see how this one turns out.
More things I wrote fan fiction about and didn’t know
Re:Bearded Phantom Thanks for speaking for me, it is a true reflection of my thoughts.
I have been following since comic #1 and have loved the overall development. Dem’s/Jim your skills have been improving and it has been exciting to watch your development. Keep it up, I can’t wait for more.
It does seem that Viper1 has already given enough information to hint his mental takeover of the minds within Viper.
@ Bearded Phantom – Archimedes is actually quite different.
@ Sangheilioz – Honestly, the comments you all write keep me tweaking the story in order to toss out twists that will surprise. It’s a challenge keeping ahead of you!
@ BOWCHICKIBOWOWOW – Well, I’m glad you like the story, but this isn’t that kind of comic.
@ Distefant – Only time will tell.
@ nevets 91 – Reclaimer goes up at midnight in the Eastern time zone, so if you’re further west, the date stamp will be a tad confusing for the first couple of hours.
@ spillits – I promise many explosions and bullets very soon.
@ Shu Sam Chen (HSAR) – Great minds?
@ Sword – Does it really now?
@nevets 91 Been trying to get back online today, little hard as i moved back home to go to school again (age 28) and my dad’s FIOS router is somewhat of a pain. maybe soon
I excpect a great battle in time ahead.
Great comic as always, and lets hope it keeps going for another year.
Reclaimer better have twenty seconds…
And is it just me, or is Jenkins always getting infected?
Jim, why is there a little smiley in the bottom left hand corner of the webpage?
I’ve had experience with the time change, it just always gets me when it says it was released tommorow.
Ooh, that’s unfortunate Bearded. But, hay, at least your getting your education.
Oh my god, Bleep Bloop!
Silver Fox just got Smiley Sluth Achivement!!
Amazing Comic will invite othersto subscribe Great Job JIM!!!
congratulations Jim its been a great ride so far
Dude I love your comic. You have some serious talent for this stuff..
And congratulations with the one year mark! Hopefully this year will be even better.
I get it!!! Viper team is a bunch of Zombies! haha
Viper-1 kicks Reclaimer into ravine
—-INSTA-TELEPORTATION N00B—-
Viper-1: WTF????
sniper shot
Viper-1: HERK-bleeeeeh
At least, that is what I forsaw
“End of sentient life AS YOU KNOW IT” eh?
We’re all gonna look like Ferial? xD
zOMG my computer crashed!!!! NOOOO n e way, Reclaimers birthday is my Birthday? October 23? CRAZY!!
Dump his body into a ravine? why not donate it to science? or keep his armor? something…necrophelia?
@ the silver fox – Smiley? I don’t see any smiley. Oh, wait – just found it. I think it’s from the Super-Cache plugin I use to server up the Reclaimer site a little more quickly. Basically lets people know that I have a happy site that can handle the Digg Effect.
@ nevets 91 – Sluth? What’s a ‘sluth’?
@ FORT SUMTER – Awesome! Glad to have you along for the ride!
@ Hitokirix – Thanks for dropping in to say hello.
@ Othollo – I’m glad you’re enjoying it.
@ Bearded Phantom – “Braaains. Braaaaaaiiinnnnns!!!”
@ BFish – Noticed that line, did you?
@ PikminGod – Hey, man, we don’t do that sort of thing here.
Yaa…
I ment Sleuth.
As in detective
Oops.
@ nevets 91 – Hehe, I figured, but I just had to give you a hard time about it.
