There’s been some talk of Vegeta rating other asses after the Ask where he did so for Tanjiro. I don’t know how common that concept will be, but here’s another example of it with Edward Elric.
Since it had been a minute since the last new Fusion, I decided to run a poll for one again. This time the poll was made of random characters from the Studio, using the same randomizer I use to select NHML winners. The result was a somewhat eclectic poll, but probably the two most similar characters in the poll won out.
This First Shoot poll was won by Gwen Stacy, specifically the one from the Spiderverse movies. Those films sit in a weird place for me, as there’s several characters I was interested in drawing from them, but a number of factors kept me from doing anything with them. I don’t think I’m comfortable talking about those factors here, but Gwen’s a popular character who’s getting to make her NHS debut now. I figured the most logical reaction from her to arriving in the Studio would be to fall back on her experience with hopping between dimensions, so that’s the angle I took.
Here’s the second page of Zombie Movie Night! The girls continue their conversation. I know some people have gotten pretty testy with me over having longer build-ups in some comics, but in this one we have the Lollipop Chainsaw movie they’re watching to keep the pages spicy while I establish Ellie and Clem’s dynamic in this universe. Also, we’ve got a little bit of a nod to some Xoverse lore here.
