Here’s page seven of the Tournament of Lust! Continuing the battle between Krillin and A-ko, A-ko uses her oral skills to test Krillin’s limits.
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.
So, while Cloud’s sword may be a reference to Guts’s, his dick isn’t, so the gimmick I’ve done with Guts doesn’t always play out evenly. There had been some attempt to do this crossover before that didn’t pan out for one reason or another, but I figured I could make it work here for anyone interested in this crossover.
