Good fight! Both stories were good, but I think the attention to detail edged Indigo over Boots and Dreds. But again good squable!

Okay I am really bad at writting theese and I don\'t like doing it until late into the fight. I don\'t want what I say to sway people to vote differently on my fight, but here we go. Draw very cool handling of Indigo, I enjoyed your comic alot. I never thought of hybriding Indigos ability so it would work with a bat. Cool cliff hanger but I gotta say I woulda liked to see more of a back to back team fight against the bots before you got to that hanger.
As for mine, I am see\'ing alot of people saying they thought that dreads was beaten to easaly or they don\'t like one sidded battles wich I understand and agree with. But it was not my intention to make it look like indigo won because dreds was easy to beat. I tried to make it come across as if dreds was more than a match for indigo, and because of that indigo had to resort to an underhanded way of beating dreds. The over point I was trina get across was Indigos ambiguous moral code. I did toy with putting some text in like \"if you had begun with hurt first and questions second, well.....I don\'t know what would have ultimatly happened but I would most definitly be covered in bruisese and at least a little blood.\" As you can see this line comes of pretty clumsily and I thought it would be hevy handed. But apparently I wasn\'t able to get it across with what I put. Oh well thems the breaks.

btw lol, Phillip u got a point i don\'t see why she hasn\'t challenged me either, she must be scared or something i dunno but it doesn\'t really matter, i i gotta fight someone that\'s not in the Allince for a change as soon as I get some time.

DUDE these battles are ssssssssssssssssssswwwwweet!!! Dred the new style is lovely, and stp You never cease to amase me, man great battles I\'m stomped on this one.
# 29
Im pretty much all in agreement with what Big Blue J just said their. Good work to both of ya.

this one is tottaly a toss up!! Indigo\'s fight had very very entertaining dialog and art! i\'m not used to that from void battles . and Drednaut was handeled very nicely, although i think he was beaten a little too easily for a guy with his level of power.
and i love the pulp feel, wich both artists took advantage of.
Drawdan oh man i never woulda thought you would have come up with such a startling plot!!! you turned 3 pages into a hell of a cliff hanger. and though i dont know Indigo\'s personality well but i loved your handeling of him!
way to go guys!

whoa.... you both did excellent....Im just in shock right now?!?! Besides the sudden ending, Drednaut, I think you did great seeing as you dont have any kind of program to edit this stuff...well from at least what I viewed.
Im still in shock, you both had great story lines, great art, its gunna be hard to rate you guys.

Good GOD. Both of these were so incredible it was almost impossible to throw out votes. Christ, between the two of you there\'s enough talent to kickstart the comic industry into something more respectable. Great work, both of you.
Indigo, I\'ve read all of your battles and Beyounds now. You are a GOD with art.
Dreadnaut, this is the first time I\'d read one of your comics but DAMN. What a twist! Now I have to go and read all your battles and comics too!
Oh and sorry for using your character names, I have a hard time remembering the artist handles.

Aw shiza, that was just beyond posh.
Indigo - if anything man, I just love the stories you tell. Your writing is just so poignant and well done, it gets me every time. Not to mention your art is freakin\' slick. Perfect, man, perfect.
Dred - nice twist!! I can\'t say I saw that one coming. I think you have a really solid art style dude, I really admire it. I can\'t wait to see more from you, especially since I have no clue what the hell is going on atm. ^^

OMG Indigo... is that second to last frame a PRINT? You amazing bastard, you.
I like both battles.. the way the chars interact, the art.. hmm.. hard to choose.

great job as always, guys. Lots of congrats to dan, you\'re new style is kick ASS!. Love the one-color + grayscale theme both you guys have going.
Staples: you\'ve got a new style, that\'s cool, but different from you\'re first battles. Any chance of integrating the two? wicked battle, btw.
Dan: Interesting plot line you\'ve got going. Nice job, playing off the Bragg-Indigo relationship. Still, it was a little unnerving to finish up your battle with Dread\'s death, if that is what it is. Still, once again, loving the new style.
keep it up

DRED IS DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh the Dread!

Awesome job, I like the playing you did with the peronalities-Its got a real staturday morning special feel. The watercolory(is that a word?) look is very cool-I personaly liked your colors from the Lune battle better-but thats just me-Great job drawing Dreds though-one of the best so far..
I hope you liked my rendition of Indigo-I got power happy and made up the energized bat thingy- By the way-to all reading this I only did three pages this time because I have been swamped-I started my fire1 class(basic fire training for firefighters} and its a monster time sucker-My battle is a \"to be continued\'I plan on finishing that story arc in a beyond battle or perhaps in the next battle I draw.

omg omg. I\'m waiting!!! *twiddles thumbs* c\'mon stp. win this one and you\'ll SO get that BB out of me.
# 15
Im having trouble with my scanner, and it might be late night or early morning before dropping my pages, but theyll be up by hook or by crook..
# 14
Yes we did, and I\'m wondering why smiley hasn\'t gotten off her ass and chalanged you yet. It\'s a damned mystery if you ask me.
# 13
btw did anybody check out my beyond battle?
# 12
YO I CAN\'T WAIT to see how this battle turns out. In one corner we have stplmstr, the man who not only knocked LUNE out of the tourney, but put the first L on her beautiful record. In the other corner we have Drawdan the man who\'s only been in Void for about a month and already has FIVE count \'em FIVE wins with no losses. THIS WILL BE HOT!!!!
# 11
Thanks for the post, I looked at your beyond battles and Im seeing what your talkin about-Thanks for the clarification.. I like the look had in your lune battle, so Ill probably work more towards that look than your original concept(Im a big fan of Tron myself!) Your boy has been real fun to draw so far..
# 10
If you check out my beyond battle \"Discovery\" You see that they break apart and embed themselves in his body. Now to use his ability\'s that pattern that you see in the indigo lune battle flows down his arms when he is using his energy based ability\'s(you can also see it in bb \"discovery prt2\". If you need some ref I\'ll try and find what I sent lune and send it to ya. Ya sorry I haven\'t been quick in responding to your posts I am usually on a mac and for some reason safari (the mac browser) is retarded and won\'t leave comments. So that said I can\'t wait to see what you do with Indigo, you have been tearin it up lately and this should be a good match. Thanks for the vote of confidence Johnny but I better see 10% of your revenu or I\'ll throw the fight.
