The Genesis of Ashan

Unread postby Angelspit » 29 Apr 2006, 01:22

The first page of a comic by Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik was posted <a href="/http://www.mightandmagic.com/us/images/ ... mm.jpg">on the official portal</a>. It describes with typical Penny Arcade humor the creation of the world of Ashan, and how the mortal races ended up being bossed around by the higher beings. Three additional pages will follow in the future. Gabe and Tycho are good friends of Ubisoft, having made comics for Brothers in Arms, Rainbow Six, Splinter Cell and Far Cry. It's interesting to see the Might and Magic universe expand to this medium as well.



Speaking of comics, a special edition of Cranky Hero is ready for posting... but you'll have to wait until Monday. Or perhaps Sunday, <i>if</i> you insist.

Damn Tycho and Gabe. They get all the fun. And get money from Ubi while making fun of their story. Having no talents sux. :cry:

Oh well, time to go to sleep, I'll cry about it some more today after I wake up.

Thought I'd never see the day when Heroes and Penny Arcade crossed paths!

Puts the feeble efforts of the Cranky Hero to shame. Penny Arcade ftw :P

Of ocurse not- if what you want is a comic poking fun at Ubisoft and Nival in general. As far as comics that pokes fun at the storyline of H5 in general, this was awesome.

@Ethric: That was the comment I laughed most at! :D
