With that wording, i take that he is not going to kill “all humans” but “only some of them” :D

Oh Gunner, those evil eyes. If looks could kill….That disembodied floating rainbow head of Zap is kinda dagger eyes creepy too.
Oooooh two pages next week too!? Pascalle you’re totally spoiling us. Not complaining mind you. :P
Ali
As a psychic I wonder does Gunner have any actual ability to see a glance of future? or just he knows how to brain connect and blast? where is his gun? he is acting like he is asleep.

I will shed a great, manly tear when this comic concludes.

Well of course, the universe is so simple after all, right? Wait, what? What do you mean it’s not?!
You got like 100 pages or something left. IT IS SO CRAZY TO BE ALMOST DONE WITH IT.

Gunner is an anti-social sexy figure! He is so dangerous, but we don’t wanna see him die either. Too bad he kissed Naveed only once in past ten years. May be another kiss make them a little friendlier to community (make love, not war) LOL.
I think because his GF is a cat, ick! who wants to kiss a cat??? ugh! If she was a real human their life was soooo blooming! :D :D :D

…Remind me, if you’d be so kind: are there any plans for anything–including non-Zap things–after this comic?
For Chris, I’m not sure what he has planned, but he has started posting doodles on a tumblr so you could keep up with him there perhaps? http://brainstormlimited.tumblr.com/
Poor Naveed. Zap’s gonna kill the only man she loves… what will that do to her?
..the is all going to end sadly. Even for Zap.

Or
if Naveed gets mortally wounded standing by the man she loves and
he’s too preoccupied/self-absorbed to heal her this time — what
happens then?! Either way I’m looking forwarded to some major
character-defining moments!

…”Poor Naveed?” “Poor Naveed?!”
…Have we been reading a different webcomic? Because she’s not exactly deserving of rainbows and ponies for her efforts from what I’ve seen.
Pickwick_Next
I wish I could draw (or I should say, I wish I could draw *well*). I have this image in my head now of Naveed on a carousel pony, cotton candy in one hand, scowl on her face, and rainbows in the sky in the background.

Cover pages count. They’re usually really pretty and when you pick up a book to start reading you start with the cover.
I have a couple ideas. One of which is a comic that is dynamic and changes every week according to readers votes, the other was an idea for a spinoff comic about Grivak and the Hunters before their death, but that is just an idea I always have mulling around and would require an artist other than myself and of course permission for Pascalle as they are her characters too…. but the first idea is more likely to be honest.
I think Zap can. He was, is, an awfully good planner. He suckered Gunner into playing HIS game.

Manly? I’ll be sobbing like a little baby. 10 years wonderful years.

{sigh} People don’t wake up on some random morning and decide to be a sociopathic, murderous sadist… for no reason. Some times a tragedy takes place that shatteres a person’s world and hurls them down that path… or perhaps some injury or emotional trauma shatters their sanity and makes them crazy. For which one can truly feel sorry for those unfortunate few… but I don’t get the feeling Naveed has such a past. she seems quite sane and self-aware.
Which brings me back to my point.. he fall into evil was thing of choices YES…HER choices.. but people make choices because they are usually trying to make the best of choices that bring them happiness right? Well what if the ‘choices’ presented do not bring happiness …but one must still choose? So.. my point is likely Naveed is the way she is from a series of unfortunate choices that perhaps she may … or may not have had any better ones presented her. I don’t know about you.. but I find it sad when any sentient being is forced to make choices that would bring them to where Naveed is currently. I’m sure she has made mistakes and even perhaps felt her choices were justified… but ANY live consumed by avarice that only finds pleasure in inflicting pian in others is a tragedy. However, Naveed is not insane… and after a fashion.. she STILL knows how to be loyal.. and how to love. she still loves Gunner {in as much as she can love anyone}.
I do not think her love for Gunner is not genuine.. she is not seemingly interested in what he can give her or for his power..which seems to me that his psi powers actually scare her!
It seems to me Naveed sees in Gunner someone who feels the universe has deeply wronged him and his race and he’s taking matters into his own hands to get some payback! I think that inspires her.. perhaps she too feels wronged by the universe..and her only way to deal with the hurt inside is to strike back at others? She obviously can’t actually stiek back at whatever terrible events made her what she is now… so she targets EVERYONE…except Gunner. she even felt a brand of comraderie to the Satellites..so emotional feeling and empathy is NOT beyond her.
Zap sees this too… in her..and in Gunner. which is why he spared them both.
I hope..Gunner does not have to watch Naveed die.. or her watch him die.
It’s sad is all..

But naive Zap! Gunner won’t stop! otherwise he’d be named Runner
welp. I feel like you get it. So, good job all around everyone.
stealth
Wow. Wowywowwowwow. I mean, look at those expressions! As much as Zap doesn’t want to end gunner, he sure is ticked at him and for good reason too! Obviously, Gunner has severed ties with him. Hurt on several levels. Poor Zap, he just doesn’t want to face facts. Poor, poor, naive wretch.
Hey! Heres a preiction for you! (puts fingers to temple, eyes closed) I am sensing…sensing bad omens….(eyes pop open in shock) BEWARE! BEWARE THE GOLDEN EYED ORPHAN! He seeks for what is lost, yet power drives his soul! Death. Destruction. The end to everything we know and love. Beware the choices of the past, for they are coming back to haunt you!
Okay, that was bad, but wtvr.
Chris and I have been thinking that we’ll schedule a livestream or something after the comic wraps and we can all chat and answer questions and everything. :)

Cool! Where would it be hosted?
I don’t think I’ve ever actually watched or participated in a live stream before.
It would be here on the site. We’ll work it out more as the end of the comic approaches, but I think it would be a really fun way to wrap it up!
mirrim
I think Gunner can but it’s a hazy view. Remember that he could see that he wouldn’t get Zap’s ship and sent Naveed to be his “eyes” to find out why http://www.zapcomic.com/2011/11/557-a-planned-delay/. Maybe Gunner’s lack of response is connected to his shared history with Zap — we have reason to believe Zap’s the only person he’s ever truly feared/respected. Of course, since Gunner probably sees Zap’s “mercy” as a weakness, all bets are off.
Watch out, Chris, you do know where she’s planning on sticking that cotton candy?
Speedy Marsh
I’ve been wondering, do y’all ever see an idea in a comment that you like so much that you add it into the storyline? I know major, plot changing ideas can’t be incorporated, but maybe something like turning one of the battles on the moon into a low gravity, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon fight might have worked.
We’ve changed things before but I’m not sure it was because of a specific comment more from fan swell in general. The biggest example is Kasey becoming a regular cast member.
svartalf
And, I’m quite sure Zap will carry through with his promise.
He’s able to see things…he was just unable to see the why of the inability to obtain the other ship.
svartalf
Bad mistake. Seriously.
Ali
I clearly remember, he was so obsessed to own the ship, that he forgot to see other things. He even tried to help Zap to regain his memory back. And this was his worst mistake. However, I think the ship being destroyed was not planned by Zap. It seems the pirate girl did it as a revenge to his father’s death. and it’s less likely to be Zap’s idea to kill the father, to make the daughter so angry…

When he’s not busy with the genocide of the human race, Gunner spends hours training for the Olympic sport of Power Sulking.
