In Charge Again!

Chapter: Comic

I never really drew someone in Nerf This who completely snapped, go Repressed Rage!

I’ll be adding some new rewards/perks to go with the book on Monday, not sure what yet.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY repressed rage FINALLY
- Mr.Tophat
  
  Not really ‘repressed’ anymore.
http://wheniwasyourblog.tumblr.com justWIdle

First.
Nergil’s response is just Perfect. Egads indeed sir. indeed.
- Squeex
  
  Sadly… you’re second
  
  Rage hath been unleashed D<

FIRST
Repressed rage is my favourite emotion
- Cyka
  
  Hate to break it to ya, but you’re third :/
  
  I think Repressed Rage is my new favorite character…..NNNNNNNNNNUURRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
http://www.www.com Shelby

DAMMIT
I took too long…
- SillyAikita
  
  That made me LOL xD
ItsJustWerner

Is this the end of the emotions, or are we getting a Twilight Zone “Time Enough at Last” script next lol.
- Dachiakia
  
  I believe logic died before, but came back. I assume they are immortal.
AXCervantes

Repressed rage looks so happy tossing those severed heads in the air.
Ames

Hah! “first” fails!

Also, I absolutely love the juxtaposition of Chase and his emotions. Aaaaand pretty much everything else you’ve done with Nerf This. Favorite! Comic! EVAR!!
- Squeex
  
  “First!” Fails are the best :> It’s quite sad, actually…
http://shadowroadz.deviantart.com/ Dante ShadowRoadz

YAAAH! Go Chase GO!
Glacirus

Very well done. Best parts are Repressed Rage and the heads, and Chase’s glowing eye of doom
psychouttalia

THIS.IS.INCREDIBLE!!!
Hal Abaren

Chase has just become unstable asskickings are sure to follow
- http://daemonmessiah.blogspot.com JoyAndMadness
  
  I do believe Chase was already unstable. Now he’s unstable and pissed.
Dr. wonderful

Holy shit.

I was right last strip! He DID use Anger and it was super effective!
nick

Definitely Wallpaper/ maybe even a T-shirt of Chase from the last panel.

His father-in-law would be so proud, and then (maybe) would probably have to leave to change his pants out of fear.
Jonny Ryk

Amazing! I applaud you on two things. One, on Chase’s expression pre-complete and utter slaughter of of tall dark and handsome man.

Secondly, you brought back my favorite phrase!
Fish

Chase has been giving out lollipops and ass whoopings all day – and he’s all out of lollipops.
Allsortsofmeow

This is just… Well, I like this.
OhTenGeneral

Chase kind of reminds me of Scout in that last panel…
- Insectoid
  
  That’s just what I was thinking—Is Chase turning into Scout??
  - quix
    
    Shhhh! The filler/comic being same-universe was foreshadowing, but we’re not supposed to give it away yet.
Some Chick

Rage!Chase is abosolutely wonderful <3
Fromthewoodwork

“Heeeeey Mr. Millers! You should come see what your daughter’s boyfriend is doing!” >.>
LaLaDee

HOLY CRAP, GO CHASE!!
Randumbdave

The final panel is an excellent example of the distillation of your skill, Scott. The angle, shading, and highlights truly are amazing! Keep up the good work!
- Faith
  
  These statements are quite true
- Matthew
  
  *like*
Marksers

I want Taryn’s father to see this. He needs to be there with his jaw dropped open, lol

Then, later, he’ll have to grudgingly give Chase some respect.. oh, the hilarity of his shame, when Chase boldly embarks upon his usual dapper shenanigans.

Even if the above doesn’t happen:
AWESOME STRIP OF AWESOMENESS.
- Katie
  
  Yes. To all of the above.
- Matthew
  
  Agreed!
Supertoast

GO REPRESSED RAGE!!
http://nerf-this.com/in-charge-again/ Laza samurai

Look like we’re about to see an extreme case of crouching moron hidden badass as chase beats the living tar out of nergil
Ps. Egads!
ibbolia

Is…is he glowing with pure anger?

Awesome.
Me

he should being doing more then saying “EGADS”….. like going through a list of necromancy spells or something…
LOVE Chase by the way, and Repressed Rage too
Eastman

Four things happened when I saw this. First, I pissed myself when I saw repressed rage. Second, I shit myself when I saw Chase’s expression. Third, I laughed when I saw Nergil’s reaction. Finally, I cried when I realized WHY Chase when psycho, which is that Monty died. All of this happened in about 1.2 seconds.
- sightsoblind
  
  I do hope you then showered.
http://abyxwritings.thecomicseries.com/ harmsc12

Chase has a glowing eye of doom going on in that last panel.
http://straywolf-z.deviantart.com/ Stray Wolf

I haven’t commented in awhile. I like to sit back and watch. Totally not as creepy as that sounds.

It’s insane to see how deep this has gone from inception. I love how everything ties in and the way you paint the overall picture is incredible. Absolutely amazing.
- http://straywolf-z.deviantart.com/ Stray Wolf
  
  Also, that last panel: Intensely awesome. It breathes rage!
OutLawRed

Cry havoc, and let loose the dogs of war.
AKA = you killed my friend, i shall send you to hell… or take you with me.
Matthew

You know that panel from Motokool where Jarvis CLOCKS one of those mocking monsters, and asks himself “Did I do that?”

Yeah… Go Chase.
ky

does anyone else notice the shard of chase’s “shield” in his other hand? also i have to admit i love the way Scott portrayed the snap most people who are calm and seemingly harmless normally become psychopathic killers when they do snap keep up the great work
Mike

Does Nergil remind anyone else of Father from Kids Next Door?
- Theodork
  
  Omg yes!
- Sober Crackhead
  
  A-ha! Yes!
- http://thefinalfrontiers.proboards.com Joe
  
  A much, much more dapper version, yes.
- OhTenGeneral
  
  I just realized I was reading him in that voice too…
- SyntheticD
  
  oh…OH FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU-
SKEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

If you look closely Chase has the perfect weapon of choice… a stick!
- http://brrrgrrr.deviantart.com/ Brrrrrrr
  
  No a stake!
Locke

I didn’t know Chase took a class in Berserkering. Taryn’s dad misjudged him, I guess, as that’s one of the manliest classes you can take.
- TheZombieBudda
  
  second only to bear murderolgy
  - nick
    
    actually berserkering would apply to any opponent and therefore be a bit better in a fight. Bear murderology is a specialized class, as the lessons are only applicable to bears.
    - Glacirus
      
      Doesn’t change that Bear Murderology is more -Manly-.
      
      Less effective, but more Manly
      - Matthew
        
        The more specialized classes often rate the higher course numbers.
Aridy

Yey for repressing stuff! It always comes in handy later. Take that stupid Nergil wizard face! This is the best carnival show ever…haha…
David

Yes Chase, just listen to Repressed Rage and everything will be alright.

Nergil… I’d be shitting dark matter right about now.
RJsax

Nothing I can say would fully describe how much I love this.
Klytus

Guys, Repressed Rage or not, don’t forget one very important thing… this is Chase we’re talking about. He can *still* find ways to get his ass kicked.
http://thefinalfrontiers.proboards.com Joe

Wow… Just… Uh… I guess Repressed Rage epically Wins… Can’t wait to find out what happens to Nirgil, eh? How will RR handle the wizard? Fisticuffs? Or pure, gratuitous, and unadulterated violence?

Guess we’ll have to find out next time.

Joe
http://thefinalfrontiers.proboards.com Joe

You know, I don’t think many people think Nergil ate Monty. I thought that at first, and thought “Well… He… ate him?” But then I see these reactions. And then I can see why people thought Monty’s dead.

… Please, please, oh please tell me he’s not dead. He can’t be dead! He’s a main character! Main Characters never die!

Joe

  Tell that to Lieutenant Commander Data or Commander Trip Tucker. Or that guy from Eragon played by Jeremy Irons.
  - Matthew
    
    I was sad for Trip And Data.
  - http://nerf-this.com/in-charge-again/ Laza samurai
    
    Main characters die all the time the main cause being heroic self sacrifice. Does this mean Monty goes to fictional character heaven with Obi wan, Brom and all other self sacrificing people?
- Broketoon
  
  Chewbacca had a moon land on him and died
  The Flash Died
  Superman has Died
  The original batman has Died
  Tony Stark Died
  The Green Lanterns Die
  Noble team Dies
  Dante died
  the guy from Red Dead Redemption Died
  Aeris Died
  Main characters die all the time
  - Saiyala
    
    but they always manage to come back, somehow
    - Broketoon
      
      no, Chewbacca is clearly dead
      and Aeris…
      and that red dead guy…
      and noble team xD
      comic book characters seem to come back…unless they are a cylon, then theres lots of them
Valentine

I did not see these last two turn of events coming at all.
That Dapper Gentleman

Might I inquire a poster be made?

Also, I do believe Nergil’s bear is about to be fisted most thoroughly indeed :3
Eri

Bye Nergil.
MechaX

oh man, I can’t wait, but I must! curse you linear time!
CapCarell

Oh my… Oh dear… Oh shi-
rob_strudel

*ahem* AWWWW SHIT! Nergil started some shit that he won’t be able to finish! Scott you’re amazing with the way you portray Chase’s mental status snapping like a guitar string.
Lotus

Is it me or does Chase look like Orochi Iori from King of Fighters in that last panel? He’s about to go ALL kinds of Orochi…. Hehehehe
http://jety-lefr.deviantart.com Jety Lefr

woah…
TheZombieBudda

The military has a phrase that i think is most applicable to Nergil, that phrase is, “Don’t hand out checks that your ass cant cash.” And Nergil your bank account is overdrawn…

Chase just entered ‘Gamzee mode’.

Now *this* looks like the show of a lifetime.
And that’s my boy, Chase. Go at him.
http://johannabaker.blogspot.com Jo

Can We Maybe get the last Panel except Bigger? Or just by itself? I know you do that Sometimes.
Tom

Don’t know if you’d be interested in this but as you know comics seem your thing as well as the Dapper gentlemen but this years Eisner awards included Return of the Dapper Men. A worthy read.
Rachael

Is it weird to have a crush on Chase? Because I think I might. (Actually I am a Nergil all the way girl, but when guys like Chase snaps it shows a certain quality I have to admire. And it’s okay that you guys might think I’m a creeper. I kinda am.)
Vaelius

First!

This may be my favorite strip ever… if only there was more of my favorite girl in it.
Rachael

Oh- where’s Snarky?! WHAT IF SNARKY SAVES THEM.
Yiss.
mightysmiley

yup… I think Negil is going to get pwn’d
Doktor J

Haven’t posted here before, but… this gives me good reason to! I love the whole “processing station” concept (complete with misspelled sign), and Repressed Rage’s debut is nothing short of awesome – especially his physical manifestation in the last panel! I want a poster of that last panel!

I even wanted to drop a modest Paypal donation (modest mostly due to lack of funds) but see no such button
- syntheticd
  
  you can always go to his book fund raiser here: http://www.indiegogo.com/Nerf-This. you don’t have to meet any of the price points, as I believe it details in the instructions.

FIRST
- sightsoblind
  
  SUPER failed
harleypuppy

hmmm repressed rage seems very much like my normal rage…. oh god…
Norkman

I have only one word. and that word is AWESOME.
DavidLeoKing

Just a note, it is no longer repressed rage but expressed rage.

I love that last panel, I almost want it as a wall paper.
- DavidLeoKing
  
  I just realized that only emotion and expressed rage are in control…
  
  I read it as logic and rage. Now I get it
Pride

Cor blimey, that was some smashing artistry! Good show, chaps!
Michael

Who would win “Repressed Rage” Chase vs Mr. Mills?
syntheticd

I’m so proud of Chase right now.
Ghost

Oh emotion your not even close to been in charge infact I strongly suspect from the look rage was giving him, he was the next victim!
thevandalheart

….and so it begins.

I doubt nergel will pull a c-c-c-c-combo breaker! here .
Collin

no one has mentioned emotions response. that i think is my favorite.

Now. I want the last panel as a poster. ^_^
Blu’s Clues

Wait a second, are those some tats I see on his right arm? Possible Scout Crossover?
- Matthew
  
  Nah, just looks like skin lines and creases to me.
- sightsoblind
  
  Its his thumb. GO ANATOMICALLY CORRECT HANDS!
Rethid

And another comic started and caught up with! My significant others have this nasty habit of getting me caught on webcomics, :P.
- harleypuppy
  
  yes…. I got you hooked. My plan is afoot!
ArcticSirius

that is so me when I snap
Also, anyone else have to read the comic x2 to make sure that was Chase in the last panel?
JesterCorp

I have to say from the bottom of my heart that even if you liked nothing else about this comic, reading the entire thing was made worth it by this single page. I applaud you Scott.
DEMON

…. first? Haha, but no. HO. LY. CRAP. A combination of pure emotion and repressed rage? YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-hckkkk, cckk… -decapitated-

run nergil. just run.
ExposedBusinessMan

His little best friend through thick and thin just got vaporized to save him, Chase might even have a chance against Mr. Mills while hes in that possessed homicidal state.
Seriously, I can not wait for the next page where Nergil gets the shit beaten out of him.
Btw, is Chase holding a large stick in his left hand? :O
Pizzasgood

The trick is to just pretend Nergil is a big black koala.
Valentine

Nth degree ass whooping!?
Randomperson

I throw some heads in the air sometimes saying NNNNNNNNNUUUUUUUURRRR
Pekoe

Poor, poor Nergil. Emotion had to take over in that one moment with Repressed Rage who just killed most of Chase’s Processing Thingies.
J Hulk

He has no idea what hell he hath unleashed…
Meg

Panel 5. I creamed.
Mnordlund13

oh nooooo. i changed my mind again. definately chase.
Crestlinger

Ah Yes The Rage. Also seen here Grinning.
