In a perfect world, Daft Punk wouldn't have ended, but in an almost perfect world, Daft Punk will be SO inspired by the number of times their song is played when France scores at the Mens' World Cup that they come out of retirement. Right? RIGHT? 🥹

![minicomic drawn in dreary blue hues. page 1, panel 1: an article on a computer screen reads "[COMPANY] LAYS OFF 30% OF EMPLOYEES." the subheading under the title adds, "Hundreds scramble to pay the bills." panel 2: portrait of eunnie, an exhausted girl with glasses and shoulder-length hair. she stares at the news, leaning her head in a hand. panel 3: she sits back with the same dismal expression, typing something on her keyboard.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:u7wrisekfynaf7j4vlaiqu3o/bafkreifngqgiwxrwo33ncoexgah7lmkff3eueb57o43qmioiznedzdlgmu)
![page 2, panel 1: eunnie's search query reads "[COMPANY] ceo salary." the result below reads "$30 million a year," followed by a quote that declares, "The industry has never been more profitable!" to the right is a photo of the ceo - a nondescript man in a suit wearing a sleazy grin. panel 2: eunnie sits at her computer, face blank. panel 3: everything turns red, an abrupt zoom-in blurring eunnie's portrait as she blasts lasers from her eyes.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:u7wrisekfynaf7j4vlaiqu3o/bafkreihzpg6e3s2wy6t6o3aciep6d4lsswkg5j7civlqpty3v72om6jhqa)
![You’ve talked about passing the baton in the loop of life. How do you want Hideo Kojima to be remembered when you pass it on?
I am not going to pass the baton to anyone. I will rather crush the baton… [Laughs.] I don’t need to give “Hideo Kojima” to anyone. If I pass the baton to my staff and tell them to make things the same way I do, the company will not succeed and will go out of business.
What do you mean by that?
Every day, if I tweet something that I like, a director or an actor or a musician contacts me. They say, “I’m a creator because of your games.” But they didn’t receive the baton of Hideo Kojima. They received my small fire. They’re not copying me. They’re not trying to be me. They have this fire, and they light up their own. And they’ll probably give that to someone else. There were legendary comic book artists when I was a boy. I didn’t become a comic book artist – I was inspired by them, I was influenced.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qxkeykszpqoob6dotcmifvur/bafkreihrf3nwfnjknhjmlcfuugqqodtxsfrs4ql47ezppmzn33np43azka)
