The first looks like a morally good character interrupted him from finishing off a pure evil villain, and now are arguing that they need to do this the legal way.

.... Honestly, he looks like an upset father, dragging his son away from a bad fight.

... I wish it was "Lowkey" for me, but I warned family members that all of this was going to happen, and I got yelled at and insulted... I have not gloated, as I hate being right.

Unimaginative, club dragging barbarians. It's either that, or everybody is trying to avoid going bankrupt right now.

I'm in that boat too, Kim. Though I wouldn't classify mine as panic. Not yet. Hang in there.

True. But I fear that soon none of us will be free.

I love this style so much. And those late night station runs for something are far too familiar.

I agree that it should be talked about more.

... Ever see that Rammstein video when Till has all those wolves pop out of his torso? Reminded me of that and the Thing by John Carpenter. That and Deadspace.

Didn't expect you to know about Santa Muerte, but guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Okay, hear me out for a second... Taskmaster, but his regular life, is a cardinal of the Vatican. And he is dressing up in something like this and using secret relics as he heads out into the night.

I mean it, it creates a warm, sweet, melancholy nostalgia for me. Like bright summer evenings, when the sun is setting or down and the night is bright. Brings back a lot of memories.

You know, one thing I always enjoy in your work is the lighting. Even with solid black backgrounds, your art will often have this eerie but beautiful, warm summer sunset tone that I love.

Is this meant to be pope Formosus or Melquiades the exhumed? It's beautiful.

A possibly DEEPLY controversial opinion... Underrated Taskmaster vs overrated Deadpool.

But you have no idea what you're missing! Don't you want to be spammed by El*n's... "Banger tweets." As the kids say. They do say that, right? I'm not old. Really.

You're missing out on all the fun that place can be. Just look at me... And my crippling depression, bleak outlook on life, and an infuriating inability to sleep.

I am just being honest. Also, If you worked on it, you contributed, hence, "Your game."

I think this perfectly captures the feeling that the average NCR soldier is meant to convey. Love this.

Of coarse. You are a kind and brilliant person. That game you made with skating and fighting looked amazing, we talked about it on twitter, but not at length. But I always enjoyed our conversations. It is a joy to find you here.

Nice to find you here after the twitter implosion. I saw this about a two months ago, but since you left twitter, I had no way to show you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=H75T...

Are you the artist who used to draw the Borderlands art with the hyena raider? I used to follow you all the way back when you had the white haired character who was Catholic, and his brother with black hair, apologies, forgot their names. Love both your, and sin/Goetia's work.

Well good for you. I applaud your choice. If only I can quit caffeine permanently, that would solve a lot of my problems.

That is ok, it was not very common, but I always loved your replies. Have you quit weed? Not judging, just curious. Your art is beautiful, it is so nice to find it again and see how it has grown.

Goodness. I know you don't remember me, but we used to chat once in a while on twitter I think, back in 2015. It's good to see you here. Always loved your style, and of coarse, Conrad.

I thought this was Melon from beastars for a moment, only as a leopard gecko instead of a actual leopard.

Nice. No idea how to send a DM here, but long time-no see. Saw you quit twitter and made a bluesky and wanted to try and reach out. Sending you all the best wishes.
