I'm surprised by how many people are admiring Vegas thuggish behaviour here.

I mean let's not forget that while we, the players know Shepard had a damn good reason to blow the Alpha Relay, everyone in universe, bar a handful that have heard Shepards side, just know an enormous atrocity was committed against what were almost entirely civilians.

What Vega did was the equivalent of a man of very obvious Arab descent vandalising a bars TV during a news report talking about 9/11, a matter of days after it happened, because it vilified Osama Bin Laden. And doing so infront of a group he knew to be made up largely of Americans, who'd been happy enough to peacefully play cards with him moments before hand.

Again, we know Shepards, well, not innocent as such, but didn't deliberately just kill those people, but no one else does.

Between the enourmous amount of insensitivity to a bunch of otherwise friendly enough people, and apparent inability to understand the concept of an off switch, I'm assumimg Vega is special forces, more for the other meaning of 'special'.


They tried to kill him. Seven people with knives against one unarmed man. He beat them up. This is Omega. And batarians are no strangers to blowing planets up. Your analogy is invalid.

You want sensitivity from humans, don't badmouth their greatest champion, who's the very reason why those batarians are still drawing breath - twice now. And everybody knows about the first time when Shepard saved the galaxy. And James isn't chasing down those victimized, friendly batarians. They just keep coming at him. He's completely in control, himself.

This is no America. This is ME universe. Please try to remember that everything that happens in ME should be considered in the context of ME universe.

There's also the possibility that whoever was on the other shuttle that escaped the Project may have reported Shepard's involvement. The ending to Arrival sort of left me with the impression that it might be awhile before Earth came calling but I guess I can accept things happening a bit faster than Hackett anticipated.


Yeah, I think they put that line in to accomodate pre-SM playthroughs:

Do whatever you have to do out here. But when Earth calls, you make sure you're there with your dress blues on, ready to take the hit.

Goes to show what their actual intent with Arrival was: it's strictly a post-SM event.

Yeah, in my head it was always going ot be the VS watching over Shepard so it's kind of neat to be wrong about that. I'm not too enamoured with Vega yet but he's not as boring as he was before the comic any more.

Hey look, raloi. Subtle reveal you did there, Bioware.


Hmm...don´t know if it´s really one of them!
Like Iohanna said, could be a yet unknown race (for us)!

New species shows up on page 4.


Ha, at first I thought "What on earth is a mind flayer doing there?" [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/wondering.png[/smilie]

Then
I took another long look at it and the "mind flayer" has 4 arms! In the
last pannel you can even make out what seems to be a collector at the
left! And another alien with 6 arms! Haha!

Artistic liberty or new cannon for ME3? We'll have to wait to see.

All in all, really loved this little piece. The ending got me foaming for more! Thanks for posting these for us IndigoWolfe! [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/wizard.png[/smilie]


Yup, I agree, liked this mini-comic as well!
And I don´t really think there are Collectors on Omega...just strolling around :P

I never knew the Normandy 2 had a cell. Funny, since I should know such things.


And where are they...I´ve seen the stairs, but they seem to go upstairs, and not downstairs or something! I imagined they might be somewhere in Jack´s neighborhood....

I actually liked this comic, don´t know why some people really have to rant! It´s a 8-page mini-comic guys, and it´s free! It´s only for promo purposes, so what the hell do you expect?
For what it is, it´s good, art & dialogue as well(IMO at least ^_^).

I´m thankful we got at least something, now we at least have more infos on Vega and how this whole issue with Commander Shepard is handled!
Although I don´t really like seeing him/her handcuffed - I hope it´s all for the drama/appearance, don´t think Anderson would turn on him (or Hackett for that matter!).

And about canonicity & Anderson: it´s clear we got to make the decision in-game, and we´ve seen they stuck to it in the next game!
What happens in between is for Bioware to decide, since it´s their story, and therefore canon! Until we get an explanation, for how things transpired, you shouldn´t jump to conclusions....
After we get an explanation, and it´s not satisfying (well, for some it won´t be no matter what :lol:), you can rant as much as you want :D!

We know she's fine because they've advertised the fact that they had her VA in the studio and she speaks in one of E3 demos.

Snoring it up near the trash compactor.

I have honestly never seen what's so great about Zaeed, beyond being a walking meme factory.

His substance needs to go beyond beating on batarians.

My Shepard did that soooooo 6 years ago.

True, I mean about his past mission that made him a "waster". Probably will be your typical mission gone wrong story told before, but im still interested in hearing it now.

So long as he isn't responsible for the death of his squad and is seeking revenge on the guy who betrayed him, all the while managing to ****** off the mercs on Omega all over again..

I could see in post-ME3 a bunch of morons petitioning that Shepard be convicted for destroying a star system, of course after saving the galaxy, again, everyone would tell them stfu.

I was determined not to like Vega, but now...

Kicking the tar out of Batarians gets you points in my book.

And Anderson (who is drawn badly BTW) is commanding the Normandy with Shep as a prisoner? He/she must have come willingly.

Yeah, even if you know virtually nothing about him, you proceed to your incredibly childish rant and name calling.

Nice to finally see something about Vega. Hopefully who his voice actor will be next.

...Brash little thing, ain't he though?
