This is an AWESOME idea V o i d...absolute genius. Thank you to @Blue and Wish for the great story. I had seen comments about it the other night in the game & finally found it cruising the forums a bit ago. I am still keeping my fingers crossed, knowing all the time it probably won't help. I need something though...hehe. Well, let me know if there is anything I am able to help with V o i d.
Always,

Love it Void! It's Toxic Bunny Boy not Toxic Boy Bunny though :-P
I like the artwork you posted on FB
Thank you for the support and responding. I will be posting the commissions I've done on FB, but any other content for the comic will be withheld. Don't wanna put out any spoilers from now on.
End of Days Comic Project
Based on the story by @Blue and Wish (pasted below), I was so moved that being an artist, I wanted to make a comic based on it. I'm not much of a forums person, so I want to make this work.
@Blue and Wish and I, @Void, will be attempting to write and draw this. Being that so many have played, laughed, and shared priceless moments in this game I want to include everyone in this.
Where You Will Help
Because of the setting of the story, many characters will be there, heroes, villains, vigilantes, rogues, and even praetorians. I want you to send 3 good pictures of one costume (front/side/back) of the character you want to appear in this comic. Having your settings at maximum would work the best to capture the most detail.
Since I'm not much of a forums person, I would greatly appreciate it if you sent those pictures along with your character's name and your global to the email zorxile@nyc.rr.com. If you want to include any details of your character's personality or want to have your name included in the credits in the making of this comic, all the better. It would also help what powers/abilities he/she/it has and archetype it is.
For the Email Subject, put in "End of Days Comic" so I know it won't be junk/spam.
I don't know when this comic will be done, but I can assure you, I will do my best as an artist, comic lover, and 6+ CoX veteran that I will do my best to complete this.
For those who haven't read @Blue and Wishes story, here it is. I hope we can cherish what we have and had until the end. Thank you for everything.

Atlas Park is so peaceful at night. There are a few low level thugs that new heroes try to stop but on this night it was different. It looked like a blue whirlpool of water and lightening in the sky above city hall. On lookers stopped and gasped as citizens ran in terror. Some brave heroes quickly responded to investigate. One of the first responders was Void, a seasoned hero. He didn’t know for sure what to expect, he just knew it was trouble. He watched as dozens of robot invaders dropped on top of city hall and all over the streets of Atlas. He instantly sent a call for help on every emergency channel. Heroes from all over Paragon answered the call.
Teams quickly formed up and Hopper began to outline a strategy for the best way to save the city. Always Stone and Crazy Texan started fighting robots above city hall. They battled liked the ancient gladiators of old, unwavering in their defense of the city they loved. All the while knowing they could fail but must still try. Across town Mistress Zsadist, Poseidon' Rage, Toxic Boy Bunny, Akai Kaze, and Blokey fought with fury trying to keep these invaders from going to Steel Canyon. Mistress Zsadist sliced and diced anything that got in her way or came close to her squad. Her side kick and daughter, Lilah Lighting, was there to help fight off any who got in their way. In the distance, Poseidon' Rage saw Taxibot Bella delivering citizens to safety and heroes to points of invasion. Her first drop off was a former fireman named Redhorn, a tough as nails tank, who lit up a cigar as he stormed into battle with Voltaic Crush and Blaise Blaze right behind him. The three moved with perfect precision gathering up and holding the robots while Redhorn stomped the ground hard enough to be felt in Talos.
At the Promenade, right outside the theater, Cookie and Sabre had thugs helping to save the patrons outside the building as they both dropped their force fields. Asymptot punched the robot attackers so hard his knuckles started to bleed, but he never stopped. Heroes took damage but knew they couldn’t cease. They fought off invasions before but somehow this was different. This was like the end of days had come for Atlas and all of Paragon City. Asymptot took a second too long to pick a target and a robot got behind him but luckily Scotaphobia was watching his back. Back at city hall, Big SOB jumped up on top and saw Always Stone trading blows with a robot monster. This giant stone tank didn’t know the meaning of the word defeat. Big SOB smiled as he taunted a large group of robots, always taking pleasure in fighting the good fight.
As the sky scrapers of Hyperion Way burned, Ston3y and Dark Bladed fought with crazy abandon. These two heroes, after others had fallen, still endured. Dark Bladed got the attention of the robots around them and Ston3y took out any stragglers. Down the street, Slax and Mishmaster were doing the same thing. They were also trading joking remarks while fighting off their horde of invaders. Yet all four of these true champions of justice still had an uneasy feeling of impending doom.
The battle raged on and then Catareactor came flying in screaming, “The Freedom Phalanx are gone...they have been defeated. We have lost them, our other champions.” She landed in the park beside city hall sobbing and went nova on as many robots as she could hit. She was instantly ported to the hospital after they smashed her, but she was determined to do it as many times as possible. The heart breaking news caused King and Mace to share a tender moment together before they got back to grinding away at the robots.
Meanwhile in Grandville an assault lead by Blaze O’Glory stormed Recluse’s temple in hopes of ending the invasion, thinking he had to be behind it. They soon realized they were wrong. My Wife’s Toon said “They were hit harder than Atlas.” Fozzel Eyes went towards what used to be a doorway but was now just a gaping hole and saw the remains of Captain Mako. “Lord Recluse wasn’t behind this.” He said. Turbo Speed looked at the bodies of several Arachnos soldiers and saw Lord Recluses’ Helmet. Blaze looked up to see Ghost Widow looking at her and what she thought were tears running down her face. Ghost Widow then said, “The end is here, we couldn’t stop them and now I am destined to be gone into nothingness, like I never existed. I always cheated death but this time I go into the great unknown.” Blaze screamed “How do we stop it? Please help us?” As Ghost Widow faded, she said, “You can’t, no one can. It’s the end.” Blaze looked at her team, “We need to get back to Atlas now.”
Back on top of city hall, Crazy Texan and Flair continued the assault on the invaders. Slim stood behind Crazy buffing her long time team mate and partner, trying to keep them fresh and at their best to do the most damage. Always Stone gave orders to Sloche and RC Flux telling them what to blast and what targets to go for. The two damage monsters shot anything that moved causing a great deal of damage. Sloche hit everything with all his might. RC just hit everything and smiled big while doing it. Sloche looked at the hospital and saw Sysy buffing the heroes running out of the hospital while her fire imps chewed on some robots. His only thought to kiss his wife again. He worried about her but there was Daddy’s Girl beside her. They, like the other heroes of Paragon City, were looking out for each other.
On the grounds under the statue were two less then intelligent heroes, SMD and Captain Du’Mass, these two have been in several fights together and keep shouting obscenities at the robots. But then as quick as the witty banter started, it ended as SMD said “You remember the last time we were here?” “When was that?” Cap replied, waiting for some obscure joke. “We haven’t been here since that night for Chowder.” “Oh, yeah.” Cap said thinking about Chowder and how he would be in amazement of all the robots and been here fire blasting away with the rest of them. He looked over to see Night Babe, Lost Bob, and Judge Ghis join them in the fight. These heroes put aside all their differences to fight off the impending doom. Calico Pheline, Omen and Doctor A. Science were also there destroying as many robots as possible.
The hole above city hall grew bigger, just as Blaze O’Glory and her team arrived back in Atlas. They all looked up as a person they had never seen before appeared before them. He didn’t look too scary but all the robots stopped and everyone started gathering at city hall with what they thought would be their greatest battle. They looked at him and with a high pitch voice he said. “I am the NC Soft Elite Board Member, your world as you know it will end tonight.”
Fear tears through all the champions of Atlas and before anyone could say anything Always Stone started attacking him. It didn’t take long for everyone to follow. Hopper yelled on broadcast “Give’em hell Infinity.” All the robots engaged in combat again. The heroes battled alongside villains, friends and family. All fighting with everything they had but it looked hopeless as more and more robots poured into the city. The board member ran into city hall thinking victory was at hand. Then he heard a wolf growl. He turned to see a little girl. Her big beautiful blue eyes looked at him and she screamed, “You can’t kill city of heroes!!!!” She sent her animals to attack him as she began shooting her specialized arrows. Stunned by the sudden onslaught from a little girl, the NC Soft board member fell and all the robots with him. A young child named Pup stopped the evil board member. Saving Atlas was done by a little girl who grew up watching her mom and dad and their friends save the world on a daily base. May the legacy of our heroes, villains and the good times we all shared be carried with us always.
To our City of Heroes friends, if I failed to include you, I’m very sorry. This is for all of you. Bernie aka Blue and Wish
