Penny and the manbearpig are gone in I24:





This screenshot was first posted by Roderick on the Beta forums, but I'm reposting it here so that everyone can see it and get excited at what is an extremely awesome Issue.

Ok, THAT is a good Loading Screen. Even though Marauder still has that villain look about him, the poses look heroic and the faded image of the Center gives a nice mysterious air about him. What is he plotting...?


to TO THE END!
Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!

It's all a Center Plot.

Marauder's smile is kinda creeping me out.

Goodbye, I guess.

He's a kinder, gentler Praetorian.

Wonderful loading screen. Will we be seeing a new loading screen per issue, now?

And this picture really shows off the need for Pendragon's belt to be made available to players - without it, the only style suited piece for knights to cover up with is the Cimeroran kilt, and that would clash horribly for a King Arthur knight. Or the Valkyrie kilt, which would also look silly.

Please have mercy, Dink!

I'd love to see Marauder try to be good and fit in with Paragon City, fail, go Vigilante, fail, and go full Villain (and all still bitter about not being "allowed" to be a hero).

Probably way too late to influence any i24 plotlines, and I'm not even in beta anyway, but still, I'd kinda like to see something like that.

Why stop at the belt? The whole set should be made available for players. I know I'd be all over it.

At least I don't have to stare at someone's missing junk for weeks trying to figure out why an artist would do that.

The look on his face says that he's just realized that he should have grown a moustache before striking a plotting pose.

Quite the opposite now with Marauder.

Ooh, I definitely like it! I like the current one, but this is a much more serious image that's easier to show off to people not familiar with the game (i23 tends to be followed by explaining who the wildly grinning girl with pink lightning is and why she's fighting a bear-man).

And overall, I love the idea of each issue getting its own artwork. Keep it up!

That is not up to me ^_^

add a handful of lightsticks and you've got a (bad) rave flyer.


I didn't like crotchless Statesman, I'm less than a fan of contortionist Penny and blue Manbearpig, but this one is borderline embarrassing.

That's actually normal. Since people are not robots they are not perfectly symmetrical from side to side.

You should consider the possibility that when you stare at a crotch for weeks, the issue may not be with the crotch.
