Welcome to Glitch City!
SPECIAL NOTE: Missing Number faded out around the middle of 2008, and we are in the process of reinitializing it. All of the original author comments have been retained, and will be inserted… however, you should take the comments up until issue 30 with a grain of salt… “two months ago” doesn’t mean March 2009… it means March 2007!
This is the very first installment of Missing Number, and was drawn and inked over two months ago. After drawing these comics (both this one and the next), we then sat down at the drawing boards again and fleshed out the characters some more. As time has gone on, our technique has improved greatly… to the point where these first few comics look almost NOTHING like our later issues!
Our colorist decided that he didn’t like the original coloring of this comic and spent a few hours redoing the whole she-bang. I must say it came out quite nice.
As a special opening day feature, we present a double issue of Missing Number. Click on the next arrow to see Episode 2.
Quench our thirst so we can make more comics! ($2.50 for a 6-pack, $5 for a 12)View Transcript
David and Chris open the door to their new apartment in Glitch City (in the OhNo Region) and gaze about that their new locale.
David stretches his arms above his head. “Here we are… Home Sweet Home!”
Chris looks over in a panic. “We’re not putting THAT on our wall, are we?!”
“Dear God, no!” shouts David.
“So,” begins Chris, looking about the empty room. “How did we get this place so cheap?”
“Er,” starts David. “Something about poison water… some shady deals… and the owner is a crook.” He then decides to put a hopeful spin on the matter. “Low cost of living in Glitch City!”
“Sweet!” shouts Chris.
“Let’s Unpack!”
Seven minutes goes by…
“That didn’t take long,” says David, gazing about the now lightly furnished room.
“And most of that time was spent arguing about where to put the Gamecube!” continues Chris.
“I still think it would be better over there…” says David.
“And best of all…” continues Chris, ignoring David. “I got all this stuff for 500 Pokedollars!”
“MY 500 POKEDOLLARS?!” asks David.
“Well, of course!” replies Chris. “I don’t have any money!”
“Please tell me,” says David, crossing his arms, “that this stuff isn’t hot.”
“Well, er…” says Chris, putting on his best innocent face…
FLASH BACK TO TWO HOURS AGO…
Chris dashes out of a seedy looking tent with a sign posted in front: “RED’S CLUB.” A shady looking fox (Red, the Fox) leans out of the tent, waving at Chris. Chris runs along, pushing a cart laden with his ill gotten gains. Both characters share a knowing glance, muttering “hehe… Sucker!” under their breath.
