Looks like our hero’s getting deep fried!  A shocking turn of events! Will he survive? Tune in Tuesday and find out!

By the way, the Clonoid’s lightening weapon isn’t all that futuristic. Check it out, they’re working on it right now!

If you’re looking for comics to keep you entertained between Zik updates, here are some choice choices!

• Silk And Honey – A vampire is holding up a stage coach!
• Raven’s Dojo – The guys are in Endale, but they seem to be the only ones! Wait, who’s that?!
• Phineus, Magician For Hire – A priest is taking on a Cthulu monster with a vorpal sword!
• The Path – Flaming Skull Man is remodelling!

They’re all great comics, produced by great people!

So here we see the second use of railgun technology in the comic.  In case you don’t know what a railgun is, it is a weapon that accelerates a projectile using electromagnetism as opposed to combustion. The projectile is guided down two rails and accelerated to extremely high speeds as it leaves the weapon.  I chose this technology because it is still in the experimental phase currently, and because it can be used to fire projectiles in the vaccum of space (IE without oxygen).  The people of Zoz use this technology extensively for their sidearms and on weapons platforms for their ships.  It can also be used to send probes or cargo over long distances without the use of propellant.

You’ll never take me alive, coppa!

I just want to say thanks to you guys! I was looking at my stats the other day and it looks like after the first month, I’ve already got 30% more people reading than at the height of my last webcomic. So thanks very much for tuning in, guys and gals, I hope you’re enjoying the story so far!
