We are taking this week off from your regularly scheduled comic strip to allow Jon some more time to develop the nest page as it is character driven.
This week I present you will a look at Bernard, Larry’s right hand man.
Bernard first appeared way back in comic #18 and has continued to be Larry’s only real friend. With the event’s in y3cl that are yet to unfold his loyatly to Larry will be shown in a whole new light.
From Jon:
My first introduction to Bernard and the Springbots was during my skimming of J’s existing comic material. Needless to say i was able to categorize them with everything else under “WTF?!”. But given some time to process and realize that I had not missed some huge cultural reference, I realized that i was probably not alone in the “WTF?!” sentiment.
As right-hand-coil and jizz-rag for Larry, Bernard was shuffled off my Z2C plans. I love zombies. I love robots. But I just don’t believe that god meant them to be married. But as J and I started mind-storming the y3cl story line I became enamored with the idea of the pulse-bots as the 1000 year descendants of the spring-bots. However, since Larry was going to figure into the storyline I became convinced that Bernard needed a place. But what would Bernard look like a 1000 years ago. And while I have hardly conveyed (thus far) the age he should show, I was inspired but just what part Bernard could play.
And it will be good
