Be fair; this is just the triumph of real-world experience over gaming experience. JJ has been trained to hunt people down, whereas Daniel thinks those earmuffs give him +5 to stealth.
Just making a silly about the conception that McDonalds’ customers are unhealthy and don’t walk much in general. That most of them would be driving minivans instead of walking.
It’s either going to go that way and be awesome, or we’re about to see the two nicest people (in-game and out) in this comic get beaten up and murdered by Frankenmario.
‘Cause like a chip shot they were walkin’ there
Fast food sign glinting’ off their hair
I snuck up and grabbed ’em by their hands
I strangled them in my Chevy Van and that’s all right with me.
If you’ve been watching the shit-show that Game of Thrones has become, remember how Brienne of Tarth is on a quest to find Sansa Stark, and it’s all very high-minded and dramatic and important… but then she just runs into her at an inn? Well, JJ’s odds are better than that, at least.
Possible continuity error?: In the fourth panel, he’s approaching them from behind. In the sixth panel he’s apparently passed them, so we should see their front sides in the rear window instead of their backs. Unless they’ve done an about-face, which would also explain why Lia is on Daniel’s left side in panel 4 and on his right in panel 6.
So now Carol officially knows people will have to die for this to stay secret and she does not care.
Whatever fate is in store for her and JJ is far too generous unless it involves very slow and painful deaths.
She’s already had to personally dispose of a corpse after H. R. murdered that employee who just happened to wander into the basement lab, and apparently she did a good enough job that no cops are investigating yet. So I think she’s made her peace with the idea that people have to die to protect Hurricane’s secrets.
True but IMO that was more highlighting the point where HR became irredeemably evil. Carol could justify covering up a murder she had no part in and was clearly disturbed by the experience.
But now she is literally ordering her hired HITMAN to murder 4 strangers. Those 4 could include a child for all she knows. She just doesn’t care at all anymore. She’s now just as psychotically distant and unempathetic as HR and I’m waiting eagerly for them both to die slowly as the piles of evil garbage they have become.
A quick swerve there could save you a lot of trouble, JJ.
Naw, he needs them alive right now, to give him the location of the others. He’ll probably tail them to their hideout.
No need to be so hasty when two can lead you to the rest of the group. You know, two in the hand are worth five in the morgue.
Assuming they are not already acting on a plan that involves baitey public movements.
That would be ether bold or stupid. Ether way, that would require allot of luck considering they would need JJ to see them at just the right time.
Now, I don’t want to sound like a jerk, but they have some of the WORST hiding skills I’ve ever seen.
Be fair; this is just the triumph of real-world experience over gaming experience. JJ has been trained to hunt people down, whereas Daniel thinks those earmuffs give him +5 to stealth.
I do believe he thinks those earmuffs in fact give him +5 to cold resistance
It’s a Rare item, it has two stats.
I’m really hoping they are intentionally luring him into an ambush. Hoping, but not expecting.
McDonalds: It’ll be the death of you!
JJ: “I’m loving it”
btw, is that product placement? Sellout! :P
I know you’re joking, but we had that discussion before… (chapter 25, page 1/chapter 27, cover)
I guess they should have ordered out…
Recent experiences made that option somewhat unattractive.
Should have listened to their mom saying that junk food would be the death of them.
Or at the very least taken the drive-thru. They must not realize how conspicuous it is that someone would be ‘walking’ with their food from Micky-D’s.
What do you mean by “‘walking’,” and/or how is it different from just regular walking?

Let’s hope it’s a trap.

The archives are kind of a mess, and I can’t find the chapter where he killed one of their group. Who did he kill again? The person who played Rachel?
The gal who played Scipio
The two in the comic are the players of Rachel and E-Merl, in fact.
But also Rachel is technically super-dead, too. But that was thanks to the big corruption beast in the game.
Berten Burgers are to die for.
This comment is underrated.

Berten ain’t got no patience for jaywalkers, apparently.
“A JAYWALKER KILLED MY FATHER, YOU BASTARDS!”
Oh, fuck.
Aw, c’mon!!! What are the odds?
Staking the local fast food joint sounds like a good plan for a mustached killer hunting down a bunch of gamers. ^^
Big city- slime to none.
Small town- Micky Ds could be all that’s open at an early hour.

Well, crap.
Risking a hitman attack for McDonalds? Gamer status confirmed.
Smart games would’ve order pizza to their home address….oh wait.
*gamers
Oh, please… Don’t die.
I smells an ambush. Methinks those two crosswalkers are two others of their group, considering the face-concealing positions they’re in.
*We* don’t see their faces, but *he* can probably see their faces just fine in the first panel.

I think we are seeing their reflection on JJ’s windshield…
Yes, he is tailing them at the moment.
That still has the pair switching places with each other for some reason, though.
…No?
Talk about an accidental drive-by….

There seems to a little Pulp Fiction influence here. Should have been Big Kahuna burgers.
I’ll never walk into a pawn shop again.
Golden Arch nemesis.
