The Adventures of Emo Samurai
by Jamie Burnet
And then came Striker and Blade. Striker and Blade were originally given the working names of Ryo and Kyo. (Don't ask me which one was which, please.) Originally, they were just going to exist for this one comic as a fun little side-gag. Buuut.... I got attached to them. "Maybe," I thought "maybe I can make a story around this! The blue ninja will go on adventures with Emo Samurai and their unique perspectives on things will bring the zany hi-jinx to life! HILARITY!
Were it not for this comic, The Adventures of Emo Samurai would have died off in six comics, tops. If you want somewhere to place the blame, place it on this comic.
I did not create these sprites, so I am compelled to give credit to those who did. The blue guy, Striker, is a sprite edit by Prime Op based on a sprite from Street Fighter Alpha. The red guy, Blade, is a sprite from Bad Dudes. Understand this: with a few admirable exceptions (8 Easy Bits and 8-Bit Theater), I am not very fond of sprite comics. Once this storyline intersects with the main story, there will be a return of drawn art.
