I think you deserve this prize. Thepocalypse is an entertaining distraction that I look forward to every week.

That was a bit of a puzzler, wasn’t it? Maybe Rose won’t have as easy a time as we thought when it comes to maintaining her personality. I’m surprised that it would affect Joe though, it must have something to do with the human blood meeting Joe’s, which should still be flowing inside of her.

I think Joe needs a new outfit. Green shirt with bloody holes and matching pants is getting kinda boring. Maybe a jacket and jeans or something? In fact, everyone could use a change of clothes.

@Prince Platypus I agree, but still, you must agree it is gitting kinda bland.

On an unrelated note, I just started watching the series again. And in Ch3S2, the signs in the mall say “FAP”,”KUCCI”,”DOOCH”, and “C.NUT”. Is there something you want to tell us Author Joe?

@Joe I see…But about those outfit changes, would it really be so bad if Joe got a jacket or something? Or at the very least a clean shirt that didn’t have holes in it?

Pseudonym-> he said IF… Not good news for Joe… Will Rosa falling to the thirst of blood cause the cage that holds Victor to collapse? If so, will Victor go to the machines?

@NeoWarrior Author Joe wouldn’t do that. He isn’t M. Night Shamamalama. Wait… Shit … That’s exactly what he’d do!

For a second I thought that Rosa is Joe’s sister, but I doubt that is possible :D I don’t think Author Joe would pull a “Princess Leia” on us. :D That means they are connected for some other reason.

I Ithink i get it Victor made has a second plan give a part of him the time he let Rosa take Joe his bloodthis would make that next tme Rosa would try tp drink blood,that part of him would activate and free him in case something bad happened(just like now that he is in a “mind cage” this would also put Rosa in this hibernation mode,just like Joe and will not have other chance than freeing Inner Joe anyways what do yuo think about thta guys?

This is such a cliff hanger. I knew something bad would happen, I just didn’t know what exactly…

I just finished watching it again, and I noticed something that blew my mind. So far, all 8 chapters have taken place in about a couple of weeks, if even that.

I know I’ve been commenting a lot on this post, but I promise that this will be the last one unless it is a reply.

We’re all wondering about the Joe/Annika plot hole, but we’ve kinda been ignoring another one. In Ch5 S14, Annika says that Nathan’s last name is Cross, just like the ex-lieutenant. Shouldn’t we think about that as well?

@Pseudonym_ :O No one has commented on that… that might be something that will change the plot I have in mind! *rewrites fake code I made up in my head to add that to recreate future scenes*

Alright, I can’t take this anymore. My mouse likes to double click things when I don’t want it to. Do you think you could add a “back” button to the text so we can read something if we accidentally skip it instead of replaying the whole video for one piece of text?

Well, my my. It seems Rosa and “Victor” are linked somehow. And it seems things are about to take an ENORMOUS turn for the worse. My guess is that it was Victor’s blood that was keeping Rosa sane. Her contact to other human blood, NATURAL human blood, caused her vampire side to start taking over, as well as apparently causing Victor’s influence over Joe to increase. I LOVE THIS. Once again, this comic takes an unusual turn of events and makes it seem perfectly fitting instead of pulling something that totally ruins it. Then again, I guess this is made easier by having a HUGE cast of characters, which seems to get larger after every few months. Even so, I have no problem with this, because it works PERFECTLY. I love this comic as much as ever, and before I forget about it, congrats Joe on winning a prize in the recent kickstarter! I am just wondering what place you came in in regards to how many votes you got.

Can you let me use your webcomic for a fanfic of sorts? I’m just gonna copy the ENTIRE script and modify it. I’m also gonna include your name and stuff. I’m a first time writer, you know. Btw, are you a brony? XD

@ileatyourself

Try going into the mouse settings and changing the mouse sensitivity to a lower degree,that way it shouldnt cause you to double click from one press,hopefully!

OH THE HORROR! I have finally caught up to this comics latest pages. I started reading it yesterday and blazed through the episodes. Oh man this is really so freaking epic. I love this webcomic! I hate that i missed all the voting and the game making and the community of it all. It sucks majorly that now i’m in the present waiting for updates, but it won’t stop me from reading the crap out of this story. It’s really something else!

I know! It feels like we’ve been waiting for a while. But, he’s either working on a scene or working on The Pocalypse Defense 2. Either way is a win!
