KilluhFrost Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Do you remember the comic issues they would send to those who paid subscriptions for the game? Which series did you overall prefer? Blue King Studios comics encapsulate the adventures of Apex, War Witch, and Horus? Or did you prefer Top Cow, which focuses on the main and key characters from the greater CoH universe(i.e Statesman, Manticore, Sister Psyche, etc?) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nihilii Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Blue King, no contest. Art was better, characters were relatable, story felt more focused. It even tied game concepts to the comic pretty neatly. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stakes may have been higher given the characters in Top Cow were literal gods like Statesman, Recluse, etc. But Blue King really felt like you were one of the characters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbiter Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 The Blue King comics were better. Plus War Witch who was awesome both as a character and a developer. 2 Torchbearer Discount Heroes SG: Frostbiter - Ice/Ice Blaster Throneblade - Broadsword/Dark Armor Brute Silver Mantra - Martial Arts/Electric Armor Scrapper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greycat Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Overall, Blue King. I man, come on, that entire run, facing Requiem, and Apex ended up at level 17? 🙂 Still, yeah. More relatable than "The things the *real* heroes are doing while you're playing." I don't think they generally portrayed the Phalanx well. And yeah, one of mine showed up in the Top Cow run gathering to face down Arachnos. Remade that character here. 🙂 Primarily on Everlasting. Squid afficionado. Former creator of Copypastas. General smartalec. I tried to combine Circle and DE, but all I got were garden variety evil mages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
