Bridging the gap between Fantasy and Philosophy

Bonus comic #1.

All four panels are in a vertical column

First panel

We are in the middle of a major modern metropolis in the process of being trashed.  The culprits are several huge three-eyed humanoid robots.  Some are red, and some are blue, and in the background they appear to be fighting.  One of the red robots is in the foreground swinging a sword at Tarith Bezeline, and a blue robot is in midair leaping to shield him with its body.

Second panel

The blue robot lies on the ground in front of Tarith, it is nearly cut in two.  In the background we can see the legs of two more blue robots fighting the sword-wielding red robot.

Blue robot: “We will fight on to the last to protect your species.  You are the last hope of the universe – within you lies great strength.”

Tarith: “You mean like this?”

Third panel

In a series of three scenes, Tarith stand with his arm outstretched and his palm raised, glowing with a faint blue nimbus.  He first aims his palm outwards, and a wave of force radiates away.  He then reverses his palm, and the wave of force returns.  Finally, he aims his palm outwards again, while raising his other arm with palm facing inwards.  The motion lines indicating the wave of force alternate directions, and we hear many loud “CRUNCH” sounds from offscreen.

Fourth panel

An overhead view, showing a circular ring of destruction centered on Tarith.  Blue robots can be seen staring at large piles of red dust.

Tarith: “Sorry, you were talking about metaphorical strength weren’t you?  My bad.”

Notes: These bonus comics will be light on plot and text and hopefully heavier on the comedy.
