Concerned: The Half-Life (and Death) of Gordon Frohman

Post by Doodleshark »

Welcome, weclome to Concerned, a webcomic based on Half-Life 2. It followws the main storyline, but instead of the strong, silent, alien-empire-usurping Gordon Freeman, we instead follow the chatty, incompetent, Combine-loving Gordon Frohman. Instead of starting a revolution, Frohman is just a regular guy trying to earn an honest buck in a post-apocalyptic world truled by the tyrannical , multi-dimensional Combine race. If you haven't played Half-Life 2 yet, you may not get all the jokes, but that's why there are notes at the bottom explaining them. Enjoy!

My all-time favourites are probably this one and this one.

Suprisingly, I found some time to get away from studying and read up to strip 58 in this. I just played Half-Life 2 the other day so I thought this is hilarious!
My favourites so far are this one and this one.

Nice to see someone doing a 3D game comic since there aren't that many of them out there. Pretty well done too, at least as far as the graphics go. Anyway, I probably would have liked the comic better if I'd actually played Half Life. Still, some of them were funny this one in particular, I liked.

My signature site. Because ripping off Silver's ideas is fun.

Eh... I read the first fifty... I dunno, it was funny, but... I've never played Half Life. And I never intend to. Just not my kind of game... I still liked this one, though.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.
