File #45 “Army of Plastic Chapter Two”
This is my favorite chapter in the story arc. I love the storytelling and tone. Flint telling his story filling in the details and of course his struggle with the Green Plastic Men. The highlight was the appearance of Link and his fight with Flint. Seeing Flint’s hand get sliced off and his witty retort of “I was going to miss that hand” is so awesome.
The humor doesn’t stop as Flint is chainsawing Link to pieces he says “Guess I wasn’t going to miss that hand after all” and his comment about the ease of climbing out of the pit. I could discuss this chapter all day but instead of that, I’ll just let you guys read it.
Check out Chapter Three:
File #46 “Dread by Dawn”
Flint finds the Noks camp and Lady Jaye pulls out all the tricks in this one. The first thing that stood out was Zarana as this was her first appearance. I was disappointed at how ignorant Ripper and Torch were in this comic however that seems to be the norm. The highlight of this file was of course the interaction with Lady Jaye and Flint. I bust out laughing every time I read it and it’s aimed toward the mature audience. Also it would be a disservice to not mention The Baroness!
Lets get some thoughts from Numbers:
“The prosthetic chainsaw isn’t a Joe accessory at all. It’s from the Stikfas series of solid, unpainted, highly-articulated customizable action figures. Henry the Red and his people are Stikfas, a line of figures that was licensed by Hasbro and became the short-lived Xevoz line. Gone too soon…
I used to do crappy stop-motion animation with Stikfas back before I’d even started Ages 25 & Up. I didn’t have the time to both of them, so I basically stopped making the animations to focus on the comic, a choice I don’t regret.”
