Day of Reckoning II
We’re quite proud of this comic.
Before we get into the details, an announcement. We’re starting to phase into “Story arc” mode. We’ll be presenting multi-episode story arcs with “to be continue-ds” every week for weeks at a time.
Now, our philosophy over here at Missing No HQ is that every single comic should be able to stand alone, even if it’s in an arc. And we’re going to stick to that. You should never leave our site in the middle of an arc feeling that you’ve wasted a week. Every comic stands along, but they mesh into a deep storyline.
Our pencil artist found this comic to be a challenge. He’s still just getting used to drawing the characters themselves, and now he’s got to do an overhead shot? It turned out excellent, IMHO. I’m quite happy with the final result.
Quench our thirst so we can make more comics! ($2.50 for a 6-pack, $5 for a 12)View Transcript
Link crashed down to the floor, shattering a large pot. With a sharp “PO-TWING!” a large yellow rupee popped out of the jar.
With a loud fanfare, Link posed for the camera, holding his new prize over his head as Chris, David, and Nook’s Secretary and Bodyguard looked on in shock, Nook looking on in greed.
A dialog box appears: **You got a gold rupee! This is worth 10 Rupees! (Or about 1000 Pokedollars)**.
Link hands the rupee to Nook, who holds onto it greedily, his secretary looking on in awe. Nook’s bodyguard gets over the shock and strikes a threatening pose. “We’ll take this for the balance. Rent’s the same next month. DON’T BE LATE!” With that Nook, his bodyguard and his secretary go out the door, slamming it behind them.
Chris looks at Link with a bit of shock registering on his face. Link attempts to look innocent, whistling the theme from Legend of Zelda.
David just looks at the camera, shrugging. *What are you going to do?* He seems to ask. *It’s a video game!*
