    This further reinforces my vision for an Ev True beat em up where you keep kicking asses until you become the baddie and everyone kills you

      Is he public domain by now? I feel like this could be a cool 2D retro style in the vein of double dragon, or the konami beat em ups of the 90s in the arcade.

      Could easily be handled by a small indy studio looking to make their name. And all the people buying it would be like “OH COOL! But who is this character???” and then they read more into it. And it has all this LORE!!!

      Yeah. So far we’ve only seen the True strips where he’s the good guy. They were apparently the minority.

        I don’t think they’re necessarily the minority (maybe, but I’d need to see a bigger sample). I just think that in a hundred year old strip there will be outdated ideas.

        I actually like that he’s wrong here. That’s a battle that we as a country won. It’s nice to be reminded that some battles aren’t just some sisyphean task.

        I want future generations to look at some of my ideas and think they’re backwards because they’ve progressed so far.
