   Great cover! I’m really looking forward to this chapter!

   I hope we get some flashbacks of Team Genocide

   There’ll be a short flashback, I promise. Can’t spend too long on the past, there’s a bunch of plot to roll out in the present. 🙂

   Heavy hardware…this must be before they developed the easy-diseasey kit.

   And I thought I would have seen the last of Kevin, haha!

   Remus, this is the first I’ve noticed it, but would you perhaps consent to not depict “professionals” (even if they might be bad guys) with their fingers on the triggers if they’re not actually shooting people?

   It gives guns and (real-life) gun people a bad name. And even if you’re cool with hurting the gun “cause”, it also encourages morons who think everything done for cool or dramatic effect that they see on the Internet is a good idea… which is bad for everybody.

   On a less critical note, I recognise the Uzi, but what’s the other guy holding? Looks like either a shotgun (based on apparent magazine configuration) or a grenade launcher (based on BORE). Definitely doesn’t resemble a sniper rifle.

   Anyway, thanks for making great art and putting it online for folks like me to read for free. You are the man! The Genocide Man! …I can show myself out.

   I understand where you’re coming from, Nitpicker. Just to be plain, it’s Michael’s art. I told him the poses and to give them ‘futuristic weapons’, with Jacob having something light and Joey having something heavier. I also gave him a destroyed tank reference for the background. Everything else is his, and I think he did a fantastic job. Since we’ve established self-targeting weapons in chapter 9, I’m gonna say that’s an auto-guided assault rifle Joey’s holding.

   As for making idiots think that bad ideas are ‘cool’…well, that’s an ongoing hazard with this comic. From mass murder to bioweapons to the ethics of power, I’m walking a very fine line in using the language of violence to show that its effects are deplorable. Joey’s celebration here is in direct contrast to Jacob’s sourness, and what we know of his eventual regret.

   I can only repeat what I’ve said in the past — don’t form an opinion until you’ve read the whole story.

   But thanks for the input! I am glad you’re reading and enjoying!

   Must be a MAC-11 rather than an UZI Micro…look the same, but the MAC has three times the rate of fire…(if you’re in a hurry to kill ’em all)

    Where *did* Peter come from, anyway? He always seems like the one guy in the room who doesn’t realize the word “Genocide” is literally in the job title.

    …Unless they wiped his mind every time he heard it. In which case, fair enough.

    @God of Cows: I just came back to award you an LOL win.

    I herped so hard that I derped. I actually knew someone else was drawing, but then I forgot while I was typing, because of missing sleep. WRONG. Point stands though, even if I got the artist incorrect, but… I’m picking nits.

    It’s probably attention-seeking behaviour on my part 😉

    Well, whoever the artist is, I stand responsible for anything that appears here.
