Chapter 33-2 Red Winter

That is a disturbing image! LOL!

But I think that Angel and Kalani would have noticed something to point that out, like a severly ruptured anus on the Behemoth or an exploded abdomen or something.

I'm thinking that Behemoth was dying because it was a "faulty creation". It was big and powerful, but just not made to last. Batteries ran out, homeboy. When you run a powerhouse like a Behemoth you need tons of food. He probably starved or burned out his muscles in extreme fatigue. I'm thinking the Inklings are the final product of the Devil's Workshop and that is why they are numbered; unlike the Runners, Behemoths, and Jumpers.

I'm with you on the burnt out part. Giving birth end of spaceballs style would need to be noted by angel/kalani for sure. However, I still think there's more to the numbers. It's either a numbering system for where he's sending them/what their M.O.S. is, or it's a numbering system for the different traits he may have given the Inklings based on SLIGHT mutations. i.e. bullet resistance, breathing in water....flying pteradactyls.....You know, the usual.

I think I've cited 3 or 4 movies in the collective of my comments on this thread....need to quit that, lol

Boulder Co:
The December Mean Temperature is approx 30.0 degrees- Lows in the 20's.

Fort Irwin:
The December Mean Temperature is approx 48.0 degrees

That's a big difference.

Are you suggesting that the little ones are "ass babies"?

Are you suggesting that the little ones are "ass babies"?

Quite the contrary. I'm saying it is probably very unlikely they were birthed from the Behemoths.

Where the little ones came from, I have no clue. Maybe they were the first generation, spawned from test tubes. And the ONLY reason they were little is because of that fact. Every subsequent generation will be like those infected by the Inklings. They will be full grown humans who adopt the traits of a full grown Little One.

Maybe those first Little Ones, were the ONLY little ones, and so, they are the only ones to have a tattoo. Maybe?

I was the one suggesting....mostly in jest because I don't think it's true. In my messed up world and theory, a behemoth gets wet and pops out two Inklings.

Wow, what a fun episode to listen to! I know I'm late to the party on this one... was too busy to post yesterday but still managed to listen to this episode 5 times now (3x on headphones, 2x in car). So quickly,


Awesome Sound, Dude!
This was probably my favorite episode so far from an audio quality standpoint. I loved everything, from the chopper blades to the engine whine, to the vocal quality shift when they guys put their comm. helmets on, to the sound of the M134 minigun... it was all just fucking awesome. Really, really well done. I'd like to hear how Kc got all those sounds and put them together.


Shit, Meet Fan
So we got a baddie on the loose, and soon Pvt. Grigg Longnails is going to be SPREADING THE LOVE all through Boulder, baby! Those dudes who are used to taking head-shots at snow-zombies this time of year are in for a rude awakening! I'm really pleased to see the zombies re-assert themselves as the real villains of this story, rather than the Mallers.


Tony Robbins
Did anyone else get the impression that Anthony Robbins actually does sound like self-help guru Tony Robbins... especially when he is speaking through the comm. helmet? How much did you pay for that cameo, Kc? Tony%u00252BRobbins.jpg



My Zombie's Dad Can Kick the Shit Out of Your Zombie's Dad
No offense to Walking Dead fans, but Kc's zombies would SHRED THE SHIT out of those stupid, sluggish, Romeroesque pussies on the Walking Dead show. I mean... it's not even close. Especially throwing into the mix now that they are apparently becoming sub-zero operatives and BULLETPROOF. Whoo! This is awesome!

Somehow, I imagine these 'Little (Big) Ones' as something like ghoulish, whitened versions of the Ents from the LOTR series...

Autopsy Scene?
I would love it if next episode were an autopsy scene back at Irwin... in some secret back-room somewhere. I hope Michael and the gang find something there that will eventually lead / compel them into an eventually confrontation with the source of this genetic zombified tinkering: Ink, baby!


So this episode was just fun, fun, fun for me.... just great entertainment all around. I could keep listening to the "SON OF A BIIIIIITCH!" and the "No, he's not turning... Uh, Yep! Yes, he is!" over and over. Great acting, guys.

Bring it on, baby! I'm fiiiiiired uuup!!!

And if they eat after midnight...


...which if you think about it is a bullshit rule because when does "after midnight" end? 6:00 a.m.? 12 noon? What the fuck? Why does Gizmo never turn into a gremlin?!

Are we in for another Helicopter crash? The pilot mentions that they are lower than normal on fuel and when they touch down powers down the engines. I come to this conclusion because when Carl and Tony are running back to the chopper the engines can be heard spinning up. Then throughout the rest of the episode the engines can be heard still running, sucking more fuel.

I'm pretty sure the pilot was just saying that to tease Specialist Robbins and initiate some banter between them. It's a rescue mission, they wouldn't leave without adequate fuel and are most likely completely full. They would know when they were too far or just far enough to have to turn around. The engine is powered down but not shut down, in an instance like this it should be left running. I am surprised though that before touching down they did not circle the area a couple of times first.

[Penguine]

Makes sense. I was suprised they didn't cirlce once or twice also.
