Description The 12th episode of the "Marauder Shields" Mass Effect comic. In this one... We meet up with Jack, stranded on the other side of the lines and learn that sometimes there's just not enough time. This is the longest comic in the series as of yet!

P.S. Just so you guys now: this episode is the beginning of a new story arc for Jack (or a continuation of her previous arc, if you consider this a second part of the "teacher at Grissom Academy" story), that will continue towards a meaningful resolution.

And here's my first emotional heartbreak from this series. Way to go in actually achieving that level of emotion.

Koobismo

Do you support the refusal alternate fan made ending?

because I have a feeling that Rodriquez little speech there is a bit of forshadowing to a united galaxy defeating the reapers conventionally.

Tell me am I wrong?

I support everything that has sense, the refusal theory as well, I can see it happening. My own scenario tickles with this idea ("Maybe they aren't as powerful as we think?" - and it indeed seems that they aren't), but it won't be the way it will go down in the very end, at least not in 100 percent, I produced my own little ending that I hope everyone will enjoy. Having said that, wait for a certain comic where Hackett gives a certain order to a certain united fleet - you'll love it.

You know that you have royally fucked up when the fans make better ending where the main protagonist is stopped from reaching their ending.
Not like this, Bw.

TarnishedVisionary In reply to koobismo [2012-04-03 18:10:04 +0000 UTC]

You caught me there. I can't choose. I love 'em all! Shield's resignation, the reveal of his past, how he shoots Shepard to stop him and then how he goes on to protect him. Kirrahe's speech, Commander Bailey's appearance (that entry was incredibly powerful... no pun intended), Miri, Jack, and now Aria.

You are the best. Keep up the awesome work. For as long as there's hope, we WILL hold the line!

P.S.: the joke ones are amazing, too. BioWare should really see the "synthetic DNA" and the "reason for London's invasion one" - it was never ever explained why the Reapers converged on London...

this comic is so full of win.

Actually brought tears to my eyes a few times.

Yes, everyone fighting for Shepard would have made so much more sense than the Normandy flying away with it's tail between his leg.

Thanks for the effort!!
Still holding the line!

Wait, no. This is actually a GREAT ending! It's...I would have actually preferred this a million times over than what we got, and I mean that for real--my first playthrough ever, THIS would have been an amazing ending.

I still can't bring myself to replay Marauder Shields 1 and 2, let alone MS3.

This Shepard guy comes along and ruins it at the end of 3. And you can't beat him. :<

I like how this comic started as a joke and became an alternative ending. Are you planning a redo of the firsts shots?

Found this last week, and I keep re-reading it. Amazing art, amazing story. Love the music links too.

Curious where you take Jack's story. Her character always struck me as "not prone to survive this fight." Because she's Jack, and she'd go down fighting just to stick her finger in Harby's eye.

Can't wait to read the next one! 100x better than BioWare's ending! Love the decision not to molly-coddle the characters.
