I try to picture the scary factor for chase being similar to the affect of playing this… which I did play for about 30 minutes a year ago, and it officially made me scared of the dark for about a month D:
Great work man, just commenting to say thanks for making such a well written and well drawn comic series that keeps me coming back every day 😀 keep up the amazing work ^_^
I couldn’t help but giggle for a good 5 minutes at Nergil’s face, and every time I go back up to look at it I start laughing all over again. I’m getting strange looks from my co-workers.
Awww, Nergil’s ickle face! It’s kind of like hide-and-seek with…bricks and shadow chaps and… not like hide and seek at all…
Anyway, good to see you’re back on track!
Incidentally, Dead Space is good, but not great. It’s neither all that scary or all that fun or original, even though I first played it because it was marketed to me by a friend as zombies in space and thus I was one over. Actual zombie-ish and other games are much better. DS tends to rely on things jumping out at you and semi-gross body horror – it gets predictable and it just could be so much better. Oh, and I’m sorry, but people who describe it to friends as ‘zombies in space’ liiiiieeee… because I’m a zombie purist and I love zombie stuff, and necromorphs are -not- zombies.
Oh, and at some point in that vid, at 0.15 or something, there’s this random ‘RAWR!’ noise that made me lol like a moron…because I’m special like that.
Incidentally,
Not just any brick, but a SHADOWBRICK. For only dapper wizards will get the whorelock beat out of them with a fine piece of dapper shadowbrickery. Great comic as always Scott, I have enjoyed Nerf This for many years…keep up the amazing work.
The dark doesn’t scare me, so much as the possibility of horrorterrors within it. “Scary” games usually only get a slight jump out of me when something unexpected happens, but it’s little more than reflex. No, for something to scare me, it has to be mindwarpingly horrifying.
First? 😀
yups :D, because i’m so awesome that i was up all night drawing that i’m officially the first on this page :3
ANYWAYS, in a more serious comment mode.

also in reply to the Dead Space 2 thing. play Amnesia, your fear of the dark will be MUCH~~~~ longer than a month after the first TEN minutes >:D
Actually, that was Dead Space 1. :3 But I agree with you about the game! Hell, Ive had it for a year, and I still havent even gotten halfway…
Nightmares after playing that game x.x So worth it though its one of my favorites
I just watched an Amnesia walkthrough and I was freaking out SO MUCH
I love that face in panel 3!

Nergil’s face is HILARIOUS. XD
Love how chase thinks a brick will actually work.
So I’m guessing peeing on Nergil to show dominance is also out of the question?
Poor Chase…
Unless it’s accidental terror peeing?
Awww, Nergil’s ickle face! It’s kind of like hide-and-seek with…bricks and shadow chaps and… not like hide and seek at all…

Argh. I hope for their sake Taryn’s dad rocks on up :s
Oh snap! Nergil is gonna bring the pain!
Wait! What if you tried to hit him with, i don’t know, a brick?? Maybe that would work.
Not just any brick, but a SHADOWBRICK. For only dapper wizards will get the whorelock beat out of them with a fine piece of dapper shadowbrickery. Great comic as always Scott, I have enjoyed Nerf This for many years…keep up the amazing work.
Shadow man looks awesome
and yeah i tried to play dead space, not a good game to test out your new 5.1 surround sound at 1am.
I think that Chase just sh** a brick O.o
Here’s the best option I see:
Chase becomes Nergil’s apprentice = awesome.
I must find out who does Nergil’s tailoring: that is one stretchy, durable AND dapper suit.
I really want the Crimson/White tophat/suit ensemble that he had at the wedding.
I think the suit is him. like Alex Mercers cloths in prototype
I personally think the brick Idea would have worked. Anything in those hands should you know… work.
In other news I personally found Chases scare factor to be one closer to the feeling in your gut when you first begin to play Amnesia.
I get the vibe that the Nergil fillers are over. In which case, I want to know what happens to Winnifred from way back when.

Those Os. Every time I see them, I become scared that Slender Man is behind me. Damn you.
…Aww I thought I was the only person that noticed.
Dammit.
well………………………he could still pee on him to assert dominance
I wonder if FEMA covers carnivals. It sure looks like this one’s about to have a disaster hit.

That’s all I could think about when I read this comic.
Thus was the end of Chase Conners.
that face nergil made is absolutely horrifying
So if anyone here follows Marble Hornets, that O from Nergil is totally the Operator’s symbol. NERGIL IS SLENDERMAN!
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
Oh god
X____X And now I will never sleep again.
Soooo plans C-F probably involve voiding his bowels?
Hahahahaha Nergil’s face is priceless.
The lack of Motokool is killing me, man!
Que Mr.mills Anti Nergil face crunch punch!
When I first played that part in Dead Space I knew that guy was alive because his limbs were in place. Sneeaaaky necromorphs 🙂
wasn’t Taryn’s dad following them at the start of the carnival scene? anyways, how is he doin anyway?
Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem
Holy crap, the Operator symbol! Shadow Guy is Slender Man!
Scarry shadow cthulhu is scarry! SRSLY!!!!1
Those last two panels could almost be a visual metaphor for Chase shitting a brick. That would make it funnier
