Character: Chris Rusae
An odd mix of gamer and adventurer. Is a tech whiz, and not afraid to use it to meet his own means. Costars in the spinoff SR:Scouting. Accomplished at hot-air ballooning. Fun fact: His design is modeled after the character in Pokémon Crystal, and his last name is based off of the Hoenn games.

Life In Retail
I’ve been quite impressed with those people who manage to make it to their jobs despite horrible weather, and I feel bad for them because typically customers are more irritable with poor weather, making their jobs all that more difficult. I also question the ethics of those businesses who demand that their employees show up in the middle of a blizzard. Obviously for something like a hospital it’s necessary, but I’m pretty sure a hobby store is not essential to survival. I also question the sanity of those people who insist on going shopping despite insane weather.
Have fun!

Christmas Spirit
A lovely insight into a Christmas at Greenpath. FYI, they are playing “Pitchfork 3”, which obviously is a Halo parody. There are some slight differences from the real life version of this game. The most obvious of which is the helmets. Less protection, but I wanted it clear that it was Jorocks and Percy. Another difference is that vehicles have different names. The Warthog is now the Puma, for example. You get bonus points if you know why. Other differences may become apparent if this game shows up again, and I have a few other parodies in mind.
This comic posed several problems to me. The first was that I really struggled with drawing the Puma, particularly that gun. My art is fairly simple and often lacks props, so it posed problems. The other problem is one that those of you who read this comic on a regular basis would have noticed: My internet at home is not as stable as the one at my dorm, and it must have disconnected before the entire comic had sent, despite giving me a completion notice. Thus, come Monday morning it was only half there and I had to reload it. But all is good now.
Have fun!
