The P's: Episode 4

I know, I know, I'm a horrible blogger and haven't posted anything in two weeks. I have a plan, though. A firm update shedule: Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. Mondays and Wednesdays will consist of me rambling about whatever subject strikes my fancy, and Saturdays will be updates for this gripping drama.

TITLE PAGE


An ominous castle looms over the face of the lined paper. I assume that the castle belongs to Evil Face. He's obviously a narcissist that feels the need to plaster his face on everything he owns. Or maybe I was planning on selling playsets and other merchandise down the road when the P's became a mega hit. Too bad it's a blatant ripoff.

P's in: Exploring King Bomb's Cas(tle?)


So I guess this King Bomb guy is Evil Face. I just cram in exposition wherever I can, you know.


PANEL 1


Bubbly Bomb teleports into view in front of a door.


He has angry eyebrows so we know he's a villain.


PANEL 2


Brave P teleports in just as Bubbly Bomb enters the door.


Brave P: Wha...


PANEL 3


Propelly warps in from the netherworld.


Propelly: Brave P!

What a needy little turd.


PANEL 5


P appears.


P: You guys!

Someone was feeling left out because he has no defining characteristics.


PANEL 6


Scaredy P appears.


Scaredy P: Ohh...

*laugh track*

PANEL 1


The P's sneak into the castle, but are instantly greeted by some sort of horrible bomb/man hybrid.


Brave P: Ack!

Another ripoff. So much for my merchandise deals.


PANEL 2


Brave P unleashes a mighty punch, sending the bomb mutant flying.


Mutant: Auugh!

Yes, Brave P, the first thing you should do when confronted by a bomb is punch it. Brave P has no concern for his safety or that of his friends... he is too brave for such petty concerns.


PANEL 3


The mutant explodes, sending debris flying directly into Scaredy P's eye.


Seven-year-old me apparently loves beating up on the weak and frightened. Parallel-universe-me: serial killer.


PANEL 4


A pathway opens, revealing a long suspended pathway. Propelly falls down for no reason.


Apparently the secret password was... an explosion. That is bad security right there.


PANEL 5


The P's venture forth.


Brave P has a massively smug look on his face, like he knew that's what would happen all along. What a loser.


PANEL 6


A top-down view of the P's progressing along the suspended pathway.

PANEL 1


The P's go through a door.


PANEL 2


Bubbly Bomb suddenly trapezes in out of nowhere. Propelly makes a very weak attempt to touch his butt.


Brave P: Look!

Wow. There is just so much to say about this panel. So,  it seems like Bubbly Bomb is hiding his past as a gymnast from everyone. The P's were literally right behind him as he went into the castle. He must have had to instantly swing away on his little rope to get away. So weird. Tune in next episode: P's in: Cirque du Soleil.


Even weirder is Propelly's little butt-grab. What a horrible creeper. I hate him so much.


PANEL 5


Bubbly Bomb knocks on a door subtly marked "War Room".


The P's are right behind you, idiot. You led King Bomb's enemies directly to his War Room. You are the worst henchman ever.


To Be Continued...


P INFO


War Room! Now who do you suppose is in there? 
Saddam Hussein.


Next Issue: 1st Super Special! It's called Mecha Madness! Don't miss it!
Look at those great promotional skills. Four issues in and already a "super special". Perhaps we will actually reach five pages in the next issue. Although if the dialog is anything like it was in this one, it will all be filled with grunts and one-word exclamations. Truly riveting, ladies and gentlemen.
