Exit the Dragon (Bedtime Comic)
Added 2025-01-16 06:32:20 +0000 UTCMy personal Exit-mania continues.
Last time there was a comment thinking about the family relations between Exit, Escape and Master Exodus. That gave me an idea for this very family-functional comic.
The other subject is Exit and Escape in fancy suits in Like a Dragon-fashion. Alternate hand placement for Exit. I feel foolish for not thinking of drawing flame-patterned horns for Escape before.
Also an experiment doing the faux-traditional artwork. I deliberately blurred some of the pencil marks, since that's something they do with copic markers.
Music has been inspirational lately, and this song was playing as I worked on the suit drawing. I now think of it as an unofficial ending song for Exit the Dragon.

Yes it's to imply that the horn got cracked at least. It will mend back together over time, not to worry!

2025-01-16 21:31:19 +0000 UTCThat sounds pretty reasonable. Escape isn't inheritly evil, but kind of a misunderstood character because of her appearance. After spending time in prison she has become a little bitter and envious of Exit who got to spend somewhat of a happy early life.

2025-01-16 20:05:03 +0000 UTCThanks! Exit is first and foremost a concept for a "video game", and these short comics show some past events of the characters. I have no plans to make it a full comic series, just strips like these.

2025-01-16 20:03:03 +0000 UTCSomething like the final training mission goes awry and Exit leaves Escape behind presumed dead or Exit coming back from a mission finds the dojo/temple destroyed Escape captured and assumes everyone's dead? As in Exit the Dragon 2, Escape's in prison so presumably captured at some point and breaking out as General Depature is standing her down.

2025-01-16 19:14:13 +0000 UTCI like this content, will you make a comic out of them or just keep it short format like these? I do know it'd be probably too much work but still curious! :-)

2025-01-16 12:28:50 +0000 UTCExit and Escape make me think of protaganist-antagonist/rival pairings where they grew up together but one chose the path of evil and now they meet as enemies.
