AGGHHH!!! I couldn\'t possibly vote on this... so I had to vote it a tie.

It looks like ALB\'s gonna take it, which makes me sad for Guy, but happy for the Lobster, but still sad for Guy. :(

Do you best in the next round, Kure! You\'re gonna need it!

kure: and awesome quote from an awesome song. you win!

Fish: now ill be honest, i force myself to read all that and while it was really creative and fun i dont think its gonna gain you much point in the art department.

good fight guys

KURE! i know you were short on time for this battle so i really respect what you pulled off in the 1 to 2 days you had to do your comic. you gave guy a wonderfully gruesome ending, i thank you for that. its what he would have wanted *sniff*
put D1ll0n to good use ;)

my own battle was a choice i had to make.  I REGRET NOTHING.

and a HUUUUUGE thanks to everyone that commented and voted.

Kure: not your best work but i still enjoyed it especially the crushed face panel and the last panel. awesome. good luck with your next match if you put forth your best work you\'ll win this.

Fishy: i had trouble voting on yours considering it wasn\'t a comic and it was obvious kure should win but it was just so damn entertaining i really enjoyed it. it just sucks that that\'s how lobster boy dies. :(  the only thing that really gets me was wasn\'t that a nuke that went off behind the door? sturdy door. but i really enjoyed the artwork that went with it. at first i thought she couldn\'t even clean them up? but then as i read on it was perfect and i love the way the story and artwork umm worked together. sorry you couldn\'t continue. maybe next year. Goodbye guy.....

Goddamn, this is one of them crazy destined battles, isn\'t it?

Aiyah, the circumstances for which these pages were drawn/written sounds harsh. But even so, you guys did awesomely well and I dig these two entries!

Agh, I like both of yours! May the best freakishly awesome character win!

Whooa! Wonderful creativity with your battle, piraticlfish. However.. I was dissipointed not to see SEQUENCIALS. since this is what this site is all about, Sweety. It\'s all a great quality though.

Kure- very nice lineart and contrast, but at times things seem a bit \"cluttered\"- it could be just me thinking that though. Your style is very hot too! I love it!

Both you- great work, glad to see no defaults- and good luck!

WEll I finally got to read this battle and I really liked it on both ends. Past comments pretty much some up what I was going to say on both battles, but as good as they both were I\'m a bit more inrigued by Guy\'s story at this point. I thought the storybook idea was pretty original and very creative especially out of neccessity, Fish. Good luck to both, but I\'m rooting for the brainwashed patriot of democracy ... and his little robot too.

fish- amazing as always, wasnt a comic like i was jonsing for, but hell, this classic 50\'s esque sci-fi book was perfect for this story, and hell, the whole classic mcmanning style!

Good god i hope you win :(

Kure- i havent checked out much of your other stuff, but like others have said, its not the best, but that doesnt stop it from being awesome and getting the story across, and shit, for the time you got it done in, amazing

good luck to the both of ya\'s





but mainly guy ;D

i happen to think fishe\'s choice of images was fantastic. The quality of them dipped at the end but all in all they rocked.

Fish, your story was great!  I understand the time constraints and all, but I really think you could\'ve done more with your choice of pictures to accompany your story.  The lack of convincing visuals really hurt your piece, and in the end for me it completely negated the effort you put into the story istelf.  As such, I rated you down significantly.

Kure, your latest was nowhere near as awesome as your Round 3 piece, but I think you summed up the very essence of SDT.  While you probably should\'ve started sooner on it, you got the story across while be concise, and the execution was per norm for you.  I love the notion of Dillon actually making ALB look more like a Lobster, and I hope you make it to the next round.

Kure! GREAT FIGHT! I loved you tying in \"Serj Konrad.\" I was a little disappointed that it was so short.

FISHBOT! OH MAN. I\'m really sorry you couldn\'t do a comic. Your story.... edge of my seat, girl. Fantastic suspense and character development. A. Quality obviously had to be rated low, but everything else? Top notch.

I already told you this on AIM fish, but knowing that you\'re still willing to fight despite injury, you earned 1000 respect points! *Respeck knuckles*

I must apologise in advance for my entry, i did most of it today since i was in Switzerland last week, i foolishly thought i could get it done no problem buti didnnt get alot of drawing time whilst i was there. So basically the quality is pretty suckky in some places but i hope you guys enjoy it anyways.
