Question #3, Continued: ...Exchanging Glances

This Comic's Cast:

We all live in our bubbles. I liked to think of Castlevania as the be all, end all for Konami, it's biggest title and longest, best, most successful series. But then I did research for ICVD, looking into sales numbers, and I saw that was far from the case. These things happen. I wouldn't change this comic for the world, though -- I'm very pleased to have a Castlevania parody comic. It might not be their biggest game series but I can use it to (lovingly) poke Konami in the eye.

Hey, guys! How about a new game in the series that isn't pachinko or a mobile-focused micro-transaction shit-storm? That sound good to you?

In fairness, for the average gamer, coming across sales numbers was not easy to find. Unlike Hollywood movies which have their grosses published in major publications. Game sales data isn't as easy to come by. I kind of feel the same way about Mega Man except that franchise was more popular for Capcom to the point at one time it actually was the number one franchise (especially when Street Fighter struggled) but it fell by the wayside. Then again, I started a fancomic for a franchise which is not only dead but for probably the least popular entry if the franchise, so that whole staying under the radar is a good thing.

I admit, I was half expecting an appearance from Link in the future where he's some kind of zombie-cyborg, maybe something out of Doom. Bucky would look like the Robot Chicken. Castlevania is still a good series.. I just happen to see the things I love fall into obscurity. I was late to the party in all those senses, though. Psst.. make something Legacy of Kain related and I will not stray.
    

When evil spreads across the land, and darkness rises and the monsters roam. When the creatures of the night make beautiful music, and the things that go bump in the night go bump with greater enthusiasm. When the world is in peril and is in need of a hero...

These guys are, sadly, the best the world can hope for. These are the adventures of the heroes of CVRPG. They mean well, they try hard, and occasionally they do the impossible...

They actually do something heroic.
