It's The End - target date and more details!
5 months ago
General
It's finally time to go public with this, after literally YEARS of discussion, haggling over price (with me pushing UP and the wonderful artist pushing DOWN, surprisingly), storyboarding, sketches, inking, full color...and just the dialogue and game-specific details to go...
This will be my magnum opus of commissions within the fandom.
As many of you know, after all the time I spent pretty much spearheading the Mewtwo vs Lucario stuff prior to Mewtwo being added back into Smash 4 and remaining on in Ultimate (as did everyone, fuck yeah), I've admittedly felt like a fighter without a sword, without a cause. Then I fell into the Tetris 99 community, and our own little niche of helping others with one of the most pain in the ass achievements in the game. A community formed, then was left to my ownership without notice one day.
If you have ever been in a game in Team Battle, been on a team of 10 or less players, got near the end, and every one of your opponents just...poofed out of the game out of nowhere, and you were given the win - and you checked the rankings to see your opponents that just seemed to let you have that one all have the bow and arrow icon by their names? That's me, and that's us. We are The Sharpshooter Army - so named for needing to be accurate with the bow and arrow as a weapon, the icon you earn for this achievement, and needing to be able to pick off specific opponents during a hectic game to be able to help a team other than yourself win.
dweet-tea has been bringing a vision of mine to life - an artist's rendition of the final game where I achieved the game's maximum level, specifically set up so I could top myself out to make sure another community member got the final win they needed to finish their achievement and pick up their own bow and arrow. (And if you haven't been able to get him for a commission over that timeframe you can yell at me for it, I've been the one taking up the bulk of his time, my bad)
The target date of completion: December 9th, 2025 - exactly 3 years to the day we crossed our respective finish lines.
I AM PUTTING MYSELF ON THE CLOCK making this public to make sure I get the details worked out so this can be done by that date. If it doesn't happen, it's my fault.

Mewtwo getting in Smash was a community moment more than mine. This moment...this was mine. And within 5 months, this beast of a comic will go live and give our community one more thing to celebrate going into the future that is the Switch 2.
