Second Quest - Zelda-Inspired Kickstarter Graphic Novel

mario

Did you guys ever read A Lesson is Learned but the Damage is Irreversible? It was a gorgeous webcomic by David Hellman (who later did artwork for Braid).

Did you also read the essay "Saving Zelda"? Tevis Thompson wrote it as a critique about all the issues with the Zelda series in recent years. If you haven't read it yet, go do so; I'm pretty sure you'll agree with everything it says.

Now that you're all caught up: these two guys are collaborating on a graphic novella called Second Quest! It's a Zelda-esque story that pays tribute to the series while also providing commentary on its shortcomings and issues with the video game industry in general.

This seems like a pretty fantastic idea. Go help Start their Kick!

This is interesting. The essay's talk of lack of exploration may have some validity but I feel like I'm a bad person to comment on it. I haven't really played through a proper zelda game since OoT and I only played through that once. I own wind waker and twighlight princess and have never played either of them because I'm a horrible person.

Oh man, you haven't played through either of those? You're in for a treat when you get around to it!
