Hey Everyone,
As you can tell, this page is pretty late. With the upcoming holidays and an increased workload Matt has basically told me that he is pretty close to burning out on MLaW, which is something that none of us really want. With that in mind, Matt will be taking a temporary vacation from the project and MLaW will return January 15th. Matt needs to take some time to recuperate and get his creative juices back in order, I could honestly benefit from the same.
I know this isn’t exactly an opportune time story-wise to do this, but if we want to keep this project going at this level of quality then this is what we have to do. Thank you all for your comments and support, I don’t think I’ve ever adequately expressed how much they help us keep going. We’ll see you in the new year.
Thanks for reading,
- Luther out
I hope you have a great vacation! I’d hate to see you get burned out on MLaW, so, indeed, take the vacation you need.
Ahhh yeah some PROPER reactive armour on a mecha, finally. I guess that LIMB is outfitted for support fire. They’re only two, but at least we have some cool Outriders to stare at while we await the 15th. It’s a bit sad to see MLAW suspended for now. But I hope you guys enjoy the break, and return with a bang when you do!
Well, it looks more like the Sumner’s old Rattlesnake mech kitted with some extra ERA. Probably a field upgrade, hoping to increase protection.
“I’m the only Bull who hangs out with everyone else. People like talking to me. /I’m exotic./” Cracked me up! Well, Amalia also seems to be quite sharp. I wonder who else in camp are suspicious about Al.
I’d have to imagine someone is. Amalia can’t be the only person who’s up early enough to see Big Al wandering around.
Happy Holidays to Matt! Enjoy your vacation man, you more than deserve it!
Guess it’s time to get started on some fan art.
Mmm… New Limbs.
Have a good vacation, you guys.
the irony here is that I think it was Luther who said “Big Al is a lover not a fighter” or something close during the big brawl a few pages back. The statement takes new significance now.
First, take a break if you need it. Too many comics dead halfway through.
Second, some limb questions. Is the top one actually glass-domed? And what kind of tough-glass solutions are available in this ‘verse? As for the second LIMB, what is the funtion of that collar? I imagine it could take some blows from behind, but incoming fire and mecha-fists could cause a lot of damage from the front… Presumably you wouldn’t configure a LIMB for full retreat unless you had management in camp.
“Second, some limb questions. Is the top one actually glass-domed? And what kind of tough-glass solutions are available in this ‘verse?” It’s an old design, that has been more geared for security/police job than outright war. A company of that or similar design has been practically raped by Dhuvalian military mechs earlier in the story.
I fully support this temporary vacation. You can tell how much I support it by the fact that I’m more than a week late to the party, which should make it obvious that I am having difficulties keeping up with all the webcomics I read. And not reading comics such as this one is not really an option, is it? I will fight on!
Have happy holidays! This comic is too good to stop midway through, so take as long as you need!
Looks like the Summer ( iirc ) security boys upgraded their limbs with add on armor in a desperate attempt to increase battle value.
