Uhh... yeah, I generally try not to flee my own bar. Bad for business and such.

YOU'RE Ridley?!? Hell, I've only heard STORIES about you! Noone's heard from you in like... forever! After you were sent to protect Mother Brain, we never got another communication. We all just assumed you were long since dead.

Metroid, Samus, Kraid, and the rest of 'em are all property of Nintendo, who to my knowledge wouldn't do anything such as sue me or shut poor Planet Zebeth down, because they're so damn nice, and Metroid kicks ass : }
This particular comic strip was made solely by me, by that happy little program known as KolourPaint. Yes, the one that everyone runs in fear from. That's why the comic looks the way it does.
