Where the heck did THAT come from?!

Bah don't listen to em! Keep up the good work!

Still, it's too obvious. Everyone saw a Portal 2 (or Ep 3, or both) coming a mile away as soon as they learned about the update. Valve went through way too much trouble to let the big mystery sit for just a week. There's still something going on....

I take back what I said about Vavle. One week after they released this super big mystery and they just...announce the new game? Not going to let us pick through the clues for a little while longer, or stew in our own speculative juices? Just "Yeah, a Portal sequel." What an anticlimax.

@Jesus H Christ: How do you know you've never seen a female Krogan? Eh? Eh?

Good. Are you done with this unfunny crap now?

actually, i think the arc was pretty good, even not playing mass effect 2 yet. but i have to agree on the other guys that maybe it would be better if the female volus appeared in the background or something.

I agree with "Ugh", if you had put the female Volus in the background, it would be acceptable, or maybe make the camera angle above the Asari and the Blonde waists, so it would like if we couldn't see her because she was too short.
Also, I've never seen a female Volus, Turian, Krogan, and Salarian

lol, jo changed his steam friends name to Nerf <breathe> Now

happy end :D

the blonde one turned into a volus!

Someone must have been ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL of the volus, to change his mind and go for the female volus instead of the Asari.

Eh, she can just hook up with the blonde.

Haha. Nice twist.
Blonde friend: Well... I was wrong. So what?

You really pulled this out? I mean really. The biggest cliche in this type of story. "He was really going for another lady." If you had at least put the female volus in the background or something it would be more acceptable but ugh. This arc was painful.

Awesome, very good ending.

I indeed liked it. Thanks Jo!

Ha, glad to see it turn out that way, it wouldn't have worked out with the Asari anyways they were obviously totally different types.

I can imagine the Heavy going up to the girl Volus and saying,"You are so small, iz funny to me."

Obviously the human female from before is the spy, and is now ganking money from the volus. Or maybe was a volus from the start and disguised as human. Or, most likely of all, it's a vorcha spy. Eww.

Well this actually makes a lot more sense, seeing as how he needs a pressurised suit to interact with anyone who isn't a Volus.

These arcs have become more like little bumps. I realize you don't want to spend like three months on one story, but jeez, five pages long?

Besides, knowing Valve, they're probably going to make us squirm for at least another week.

@Asari-man: Asari's are only female

GOOD END

@Katana

Wasn't the movie called Stardust?

In another universe Portal 2 was announced.

It's a twist!

I may not have liked this arc. But i love this ending...It's so unexpected. xD

@Katana

Interesting, can you post the movie title if you remember it?

I want a gusher! I want a watermelon gusher.

Cute arc though.

@Bloodyfish: Did you just happen to not notice the mustache on his face?

Wow, what burn. Reminds me of another fantasy movie (that I can't recall the name of) where this kid leaves on an adventure to prove his love to the girl of his dreams. Then by the time he makes it back, he's realized how stuck-up she is, and even shows off against her fiance.

A fun little story, Jo, thanks for sharing it.

Shit arc was shitty

Oooh, bummer..

ooh burn. lol

D'awwww...

Didn't he have a mustache last comic?

Everyone knows the Asari only wanted the Gushers.
She's actually lesbian with that blonde she was hanging out with earlier.

So, she's still available?

Nice!

ronery doesn't she have that blonde she talks to?

Dawww...ain't that cute.

;_;

That volus was too badass for that Asari anyways.

Aw, snap.

first!!! :)
