Big Changes For Me! | February 5, 2013

by Joe

Interesting news! A company has approached me and wants me to work as an artist for them. I have accepted the position and I’m starting next week :D

Unfortunately, since the TPD2 crowd-funding campaign didn’t reach its goal and production is taking longer than expected because of that, I’ve taken this job partly to throw some more money into the bank :D That is also why Green Pixel has thrown the extended Dr. Vile game into the production pipeline. Luckily, I’ll still be doing what I love to do as an artist and I’ll be working with some cool new people!

This job will not affect The Pocalypse or Green Pixel but it will, obviously, take up my day time. I will continue working on scenes and Green Pixel games on nights and weekends :D

Thank you for support and understanding while I make this big life change! As you know, I’m used to life changes (ie. Japan :D) so hopefully this won’t be too big of a deal. TPD2 is still in production and I’ll still make scenes!

Just wanted to let you all know and I’ll keep you updated! :D

Enjoy Scene 15 – “It’s Her”!

Vote to see all the enemies that you’ll be facing in TPD2! Good luck to us humans! :D Please vote for The Pocalypse here everyday! Thank you for voting!

You can follow The Pocalypse on Facebook, Twitter and RSS!

Wait. I’ve got it. Victor is pretending to be Joe with ‘amnesia’…THAT’S real Joe breaking out!?!?? Or Victor’s mind is so wrapped up in Joe’s that he thinks Annika is actually his sister, and wants to break out of his mind to “protect” her?! I have so many different ideas spinning around in my head to explain this…I’m going to go absolutely INSANE trying to figure it out until the next update!!! Anyways……congrats on the new job, Joe!! I hope you still remember us once you become king of the internet art world!!

Great… So she’s ¿Victor?’s sister too? And he’s even more protective of her than Joe? I wonder if Joe is going to get his memories back soon…

@NarniaNerd I think it’s pretty simple, Victor’s in the box, and, although he tells people he is the real Joe, he knows, as well as Sam does, that if joe meets his sister, he will develop control of his power and kill Victor. Dont ask me what is the conection between a sister and super powers. And sorry for possible mistakes, my english ain’t so good.

I just figured out what will happen next. I’ve seen every episode at least thrice, so I know AJs(Let us use this to describe Author Joe from now on. It is easier to type) style. IF you want to know as well, you need to call M. Night Shamamalamasama.

@Pseudonym_: M. Night Shyamalan. And yes, if that is a reference to the Sixth Sense’s complete turnaround at the end, then yeah. Sort of like that every episode.

Congrats on the new job and thx for the new episode. Great twist and cliffhanger. One thing that I miss when getting such a cliffhanger is the 5 second zoom and screen pauze on the character to let the cliffhanger sink into the brain.. Now its so abrubt knowing we have to wait again for th enext episode… Those 5 seconds can prepare one for that black void of uncertainty. ;) Is the world going to end? Will Evil Joe take over the plant mind? Or annika’s?…. ohh the possibilities are endless..

I think I posted this at the time, but one possibility I saw when the cage was damaged was that Victor’s memories, thoughts, psyche, etc might have leaked through the cracks a little, causing the amnesia and apparent damage control. It’s quite possible Joe doesn’t have any siblings, and it’s Victor’s family that he remembers. The other option is that Joe is starting to leak into Victors mind. I have a feeling that before this is all over they will cease being two entities, whether due to one or the other of them dying, or both blending into an amalgamation of their memories and personalities.

i´m with lucas….victor is freaking out cause he knows that meeting his sister, someone he genuinely cares about, will be one killer motivation for joe to fight – be it against the machines, vampires OR victor. so he seizes this last chance to take control of joe before he can meet annika. the only thing that keeps me from freaking out is that when rosa, sam and maybe even gorp work together they should be able to put victor back into a cage….btw, shouldn´t rosa due to their blood-connection, sense that something is off right away?

“YOU CAN’T HAVE HER!” Whoa. What the heck is going on!? Is Inner Joe really that other guy, or is it the real Joe!? I’m confused! O_O

Inner Joe is apparently somehow the real Joe, who is still supposed to be Victor. Maybe Inner Joe absorbed the unconscious Victor a long time ago, or something?

Doc: “We need to get started right away! Ah, if I could scoop all Your brains out for closer investigation!”
Rosa: “Um, probably best if we didn’t do that.”
Doc: “Hmm! Then we have a lot MORE of work ahead of us.

That would sound more like a Doc.

Joe, I love your comic, I love what you do, but we all are here because we care about you and we think you have a problem, you’re addicted to cliff hangers, I know this is hard to hear but it needs to get out in the open so we can help you. And so the rest of us can finally see Annika and Joe finally meet :P

WOW, I think this is the first legitimate cliffhanger we’ve had for a while (a well-timed bombshell dropping of new info)

Most of them had been what will do about the choices that have been stewing for a while, but this, this is something shockingly well placed.
Victor is within Joe, perhaps because he wanted the happiness Joe enjoyed before the ‘accident’.
Perhaps Victor simply wanted a ‘normal human’ life, or perhaps through envy he just doesn’t want anyone else having one…
Either way I didn’t think Victor had such a ‘human’ reason for wanting to live.
Perhaps both Joe and Victor can be saved..?

I have said before that maybe Joe will recognize Annika, but maybe she won’t recognize him. If Victor, or whoever is (was) trapped in Joe’s mind, knows Annika, maybe she is like Joe and has one of the subjects within her, but is kinda sleeping (what could explain why she has no powers like Joe). Or maybe like someone said before, Victor’s memories “leaked” to Joe’s own conscience, since they are two minds in one body, we don’t know what effects one could have over each other. Oh well, all we can do is wait (im)patiently for the next scene. Congratulations on the comic author Joe and in your new job :D

I would think it’s pretty simple – Joe is more or less currently defeated, without the previous external help, Victor would have taken his body by now. This breakout is his last ditch attempt at control, because if Joe has Annika to protect in the colony, he becomes the big hero and Victor would lose his power to Joe, lose the body – lose everything.

Sounds awesome for you Joe best of luck, cant help but feel that this could be on the back burner for a while so I hope you continue, I have currently applied to do an animation course next year and it is interesting to see how well it can turn out with your comics.

I think Joe is taking tips from Andrew Hussie about waiting for EXCELLENT cliffhangers when he needs to take a break… Seriously, both decide (whether purposely or not) to take a week+ long pause at a VERY powerful cliffhanger…
Good Job!
