It wasn’t 3 months this time! ;D Nothing much to update you on, just plugging away as usual!
I do have this awesome Fan Art I have to share with you from Jared Donovan Neveling, though!
Thanks, Jared! The Night Stalkers look pretty badass in that light :D I would totally line up to see a Night Stalkers movie!
Thank you to Braulio, Santiago, RobiTribal, Tthalia101, Pseud0nym, and everyone else who joined me in my live stream :D The scene wouldn’t have been made without such good company!
A huge THANK YOU goes out to Jeremy R, who created the song in the Dream World! He’s making beautiful music for TPD2 as well! :D
Really appreciate all the comments you’re all leaving for every scene, everyone :D It reminds me that there are many of who still follow and support The Pocalypse!
Enjoy Scene 18 – “Punishment”!
You can follow The Pocalypse on Facebook, Twitter and RSS!
IMPORTANT EDIT: Eep! I get a warning from Google Chrome when I visit the site! I can see malicious code in the site’s .js files and I’ve tried deleting the code whenever it shows up. I’m really sorry and I hope no one has been infected. I’m going to keep researching and trying to figure things out on my end and if any of you has any advice or insight please e-mail me at joe@grenpixel.ca :D Thank you so much for your understanding and, don’t worry, this won’t stop me from making scenes! :D
FUCKING AWESOME! though I must admit I thought it would be a longer fight and all… but this is pretty awesome too!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LESS CLIFF HANGERS GOD DAMMIT WHY END IT THERE GOD DAMMIT RAGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Holy shit, Batman
Joe, that was actually incredible
Daaaaaaaang.
@Tio Ba I could not agree anymore, This is going to the dickish level, if there was a regularity to this, cliffhanger would not be so bad, but now joe, you aren’t able to update so regularly as you used to, so why, why do yo insist on making it cliffhanger after cliffhanger, and worse, after two months of waiting, the update its not only another cliffhanger, but also incredibly short, even for this webcomic standards.
awesome
cliffhanger, again.. so next episode at next month?
I have to agree with what is being said here. the long waits only to be followed by cliffhanger after cliffhanger is making it extremely difficult to stay loyal to this comic. I will hang on for as long as I can.
It’s not three months this time because it’s a fraction of your normal updates. Bravo.
fucking christ.
Please leave all the bitching at the door. See my previous comments about providing Author Joe with money for his family and life. Yes it’s short, but guess what… It’s free. Deal.
Joe – Great chapter Thanks for the effort :)
hehe, great scene and thanks for having me see you on live stream. its been great
Victor defeated but Joe lost sister. Pretty awesome scene Joe!
that was brutal
OMG JOE!!! Im watching this as if it were a series finale!! I think u watched too much man of steel there with the neck snap but its awesome!!!!! joe is gona shit a brick when he finds out shes dead!! keep it up Joe!!!
Now the question is: if Victor is dead and Joe is in full control of his body again, will things be just fine or will his anger for the possible death of his beloved sister lead him to an uncontrollable fury that may harm innocent people as well? In the latter case things won’t be any better for Samuel and the others O__O
Anyway, thanks for the new scene Author Joe! :D
I still hope he can save her with his powers, just don’t pull a superman time reversal, okay? :D
Nuking from orbit. For when simply snapping a neck like a dry twig just isn’t enough…
Amazing!
he had to nuke the site from mental orbit to be sure.
Is Annika gonna be a vampire?
Fuckin epic! This project gets better and better each time! When the neck snapped and the head was all cockeyed my jaw dropped! Dont let Annika die! Poor Joe, everyone dies around him as it is!
Wonder how the colony is going to react to Joe now that “he” destroyed so much of it and its soldiers.
Keep on keepin on author Joe!
Quick, maybe if you can trade Victor’s soul for Annika’s! wait…. wrong series…. there’s no soul trading here is there?
Damn it. Thank you for your work the whole time. Thank you for the story. I cried for some seconds because of this episode. Please, continue.
You’ve got the talent… Use it for your good.
Best wishes from Moscow, Russia
Woo! Joe got Elder-level powers now! Oh, also, Annika. That was bad too.
“You ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
B-b-b-baby, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Here’s something you’re never gonna forget.”
Ha ha, man, Joe is going to turn that place upside down, huh?
Also, Victor’s “DoiiiiIIIeeee!?” expression post-quarter-turn there is priceless. XD
finally victor got what he deserved and i didint stay tuned long enoght to the stream to see victor die
and yay first comment here
At first I thought that it was going to be a long super battle between the two
Then Joe snapped his neck…
that made me cringe.
Great episode, when Victors neck snapped it was kind of shocking, I didn’t really expect that!
Great job! And I enjoyed seeing the live stream as well.
That was awesome!
If Joe didn’t make so many Cliffhangers than he would loss a lot of fans. The cliff hangers being there means that people stay around because they all want to know what happens next.
CRCK.
Hell hath no fury worse than the wrath of siblings staying behind.
I hope comic Joe is able to bring her back, to wrestle her out of HIS boney hands.
HE HAD A CIRCLE, ONE OF THOSE POWER CIRCLES, HE JUST MADE VICTOR SEEM LIKE AQUAMAN!!!!! (before injustice came out)
But no seriously, that was amazing, and I missed the live stream =( but I loved what I missed, it would have spoiled it anyways. I do think that the circle has something to do with the amount of power they wield and I don’t remember victor having one, so maybe Joe is more powerful than Samuel originally thought. Who knows what will happen next. But you can basically ignore my fan-theories because i’m either spot on, or way the fuck off.
That moment when this Flash animated sprite comic is a million times better than any drama on television.
It’s a nice feeling. Hell yeah.
@weaslecrap http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9qjbD8aifQA/TZkyGcCWmfI/AAAAAAAAAHw/ba-ckT-vxRA/s1600/aquaman-cthulhu.jpg I refer you to this image.
Joe broke Victors neck, Man of Steel style
ps Pseudonym_ thats F****ing Hilarious
that was just
wow
he just
snap
Man… I just wish joe would update more frequently. I think that from now on the series are going to be a lot more awesome!
Joe, can you do this every sundays?
g’luck with everything keep at it, good scene btw.
Wow…
Well at least Annika is still alive… Why? Because her mind is still present in the dreamworld. If she had died, her presence would have disappeared, no? She must have lost consciousness because of the pain she is in (as well as blood loss).
Victor… Yeah, if he manages to survive I’ll be surprised…
Don’t mess with siblings, they are more dangerous than female Hittlers.
(PS- this comment is not sexist, but a reference to the usual saying that angered women tend to be more dangerous than men.)
@Pseudonym_ …..Thank you, you made my fucking day, I love you man. Everybody else, click that, you will not be disappointed.
Well that didn’t work. I tried embeding the image into my comment by using img tags. I figured people would think it was spam or something and weaslecrap was just being sarcastic.
Thank you, by the way, weaslecrap.
Not very long episode, but more than enough, very nice episode, short but very awesome…bye victor
*giggles evilly* Oh many seeing victor go down like that just made my day.
As for you Joe YOU SO BETTER BE WORKING ON THE NEXT SCENE
my first thought: Oh holy crap, Joe is going to accidentally level New Hammerston by the side effects of a massive mind war between him and victor. My second thought: Thank god victor is apparently dead, but appearances can be deceiving. My final thought: do it Joe, save Annika.
incredible, glad to see you still find out how to end it in a cliffhanger
Is there any way we can donate money to you in order to get to see the comics more often rather than every 1-2 months?
I’d be glad to do so rather than wait with another epic cliffhanger.
WOO BRO FINALY :D
Heads up @Joe: someone has put a naughty script via XSS attack on the page…
Hey, Joe, getting a security warning from my anti virus from this page :o Just letting you know
Beware. The element uploads a severe case of trojanitis. In specific,
A quidvetis.A which relates to cars for some reasons :V
I dunno why anyone would do this >:V
Great scene Joe. RAJ HAS GOT TO BE IN THE FEW SCENES SOMEWHERE RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT Also, I’m pretty sure there will be one stronger than Victor. One that Joe will have to fight physically and mentally.
OH FUCKING HELL!!!!! this gonn be gud.
@Damian Dante
During the live stream we talked about Raj for awhile, if I remember right, Joe said it may be possible. :D
@Damian Dante
@TThalia101
He also mentioned Raj my be in TPD2
*SNAP*
HECK YEAH!! Just like my character would do in a situation like this! If someone killed another person he loved and then tried to tell him how worthless she was, yeah, he’d probably do something like that. He wouldn’t rampage afterward though. He also wouldn’t snap their neck. Instead, he’d freeze every water particle in their body, which would literally turn them to mush due to the expansion that would result. It’s possible he would even do it at a slow rate to torture them before killing them off completely. By the way, I have a tune I made that isn’t really a full-length thing as much as it is like a warm-up, but it sounds fantastic despite how short it is, so if you ever need a tune played by a pipe organ, feel free to email me. ;)
Hey, Joe, I have a bunch of script on the top of the page, just thought I’d let you know in case you’re doing something. it looks kind of like:
try{if(window.document)–document.getElementById(’12’)}catch(qq){if(qq!=null)ss=eval(“St”+”ring”);}a=”bunch of random numbers and letters”
Thought I’d let you know. :o)
@weaslecrap yeah i have that as well
Joe, I have just realised something after watching the comic again, there has never been any rain in any scene. is there a reason why?
umm, my virus scanner detects a trojan in javascript on this site. be warned.
yeah i get a virus warning on my antivirus too, and have this text at the top of the page.
try{if(window.document)–document.getElementById(’12’)}catch(qq){if(qq!=null)ss=eval(“St”+”ring”);}a=”2e74837c7182777d7c2e8888…
Whoa. I think my heart stopped at that moment the music stopped. Excellent job, A.J. *claps*
Thanks! Thanks! THANKS!! That was great. Nice to have you back.
@Pseudonym He… He did?!! AUTHOR JOE I WILL DO ANYTHING SHORT OF ACTUALLY PAYING MONEY!!!! College life is taking a toll on my wallet.
I think your site may have been hacked Joe. It seems there may be a Trojan
Since Joe destroyed Victor’s mind, that makes him more powerful than Victor, which also makes him the Perfect Being? Or would he be a Supreme Being?
My antivirus says there is a Trojan virus on the website, I hope you check it out Joe.
hi
I CAN’T STOP MYSELF FROM CHECKING THIS SITE EVERYDAY!! AGHH
Ok, I promise I’ll be patient ): nice work joe! good luck with your other projects \o/
There’s a Trojan on the site. My antivirus says it’s called Win32/Quidvetis.A
Thanks for letting me know about this virus stuff everyone! I have no idea what’s going on and I hope it’s not affecting anyone’s system. Does anyone know what I should do?
Okay, I think it’s fixed? Can I get a confirmation? :D
still registering a virus
yeah its fixed
I still get it :S
@Joe It has disappeared for me, so whatever you did must have worked.
@joe Still seems to be popping up, sadly
Also, usually I have a rough idea of what’s coming up. The last one and this one both managed to take me entirely by surprise. Now, considering the number of dreamscape capable minds in the vicinity, what will that mental nuke do to them? Victor, being at the center of it, is probably dead, but it’s not that far from Samuel. How does dreamspace correspond to realspace (There is a correspondence, else Joe wouldn’t have been able to release Andy(cant remember how to spell his name properly. Andrius?) during one of those trips)
holy shit, that was so awesome!! but also so short….sniff….me want, no NEED more! oh, and you better NOT kill annika!
DON’T KILL ANNIKA! THEY JUST GOT BACK TOGETHER! :(
Thanks for letting me know the site’s status, everyone :D How is it now? I think I’ve cleaned out the culprit (we may have lost the Fan Art section but I will find a better way :D)! Can I get a confirmation?
A black hole has been hacked into the java player of the site. All the pages are affected, not just this one. You need to delete the player and install a fresh copy.
Also, this chapter is ten months old, if you hadn’t noticed. Ten months and only 18 pages.
From what I see, everything is normal now. You can get back to creating awesome stuff now, Author Joe :D
Author Joe, PLEASE HELP!
I keep getting AVG warnings that a rootkit is trying to get on my laptop when visiting this site. Ive never had that problem before and Ive been coming here for a long long time. I wonder whats up with that. Author Joe please help!!
It says ” exploit blackhole exploit kit (type 2736)
it sends me to this page Joe
Ah, found it :D Thanks a lot guys! Did we squash the virus?
Squashed like the hopes and dreams of a high school graduate upon the rocky reality of a fast food job :)
@Cade – Haha :D Good. The best kind of squashed ;D
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Fks7bGziK2A&t=30
all is quiet on the virus front :)
good, no more evil on the page. thank you oh great leader Joe.
Ahhh, the sweet feeling of SNAPPING THAT BASTARD’S NECK!
Still getting a virus alert from Avast.
Ooh, an update.
:)
*SNAP* O.O
Not what I expected. Awesome!
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
Wish all the whiners would stop moaning about cliffhangers,its called a cliff hanger for a reason,deal with it….stupid kids…
I’m happy with cliffhangers as long as we don’t get “The Long Wait 2: Electric Boogaloo”
I wish all these whiners would stop being hypocritical and whining about whiners.
Thursday
There are 10 fish in a fish tank, 3 drown.
Q:How many fish are still alive.
A:10 because FISH DON’T DROWN!!! Unless you count sharks or whales fish WHICH THEY ARE NOT!!! They are mammals. I could be wrong about the sharks though maybe they aren’t mammals. And plus I think they know what cliff hangers are considering they are using the word correctly. And who said they were kids. You have no proof that they are kids. For all we know you could be a kid.
In that last comment I made I meant to have a @bobsickle.
And another 8 days ~
@NIko
Sharks are fish and extract oxygen from water through their gills.
Some species of sharks can drown as they have lost the ability to pump water over their gills while at rest(most still can), so in the event they stop moving those species of sharks could technically drown.
Not trying to be snarky. your post got me curious and I figured I would share what I found.
Put him in a dress and call him Susan
Put him in a dress and call him Susan
Put him in a dress and call him Susan
earl-eye in the morning!
@Bruce Knode: OH MY GOD, how can you post that much? seriously DAMN.
(no offense, I can be even worse)
Right, I think it should come as no surprise but the fact that Joe’s been having to be apologetic for the last 3 comics or so about being completely incapable of maintaining any sort of regularity in his update combined with the fact that it ‘only’ takes him a couple of hours to make a strip has resulted in him bleeding off followers to the extent that his ‘hardcore’ fanbase has resulted to rp-ing on his comment wall to pass the months it takes for him to deign to update. Its too bad..
I feel like all the comments should be considered spam. No offense, Bruce
actually, you’re half the reason I’m coming to this website, Bruce. I almost never scrolled down and read the comments, but it seems like you are either really bored or a huge troll, i’m good with either.
ok i think i just pooped my self. that was like wow.
So Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like Joe is going to to discover his true power now!!!
Damn, not even an explosion to kill Victor, just has his neck snapped…
CAN YOU PLEASE STOP WHIT THE SPAM its getting boring
One year later –
Bruce you do know you are making yourself look like a 10 year old.
@Bruce Knode – Thanks for driving discussion :D But can we please keep it somewhat related to The Pocalypse? Thanks!
@Joe: Stfu and get back to thepocal-
Eh, I mean, 13 days since last update.
Also, hulk fits in everything.
EVERYTHING. EVEN YOUR UNDERWEARS
Hey Joe, just wanted to say I love the story. I’m not going to pressure you like other people would in order to get the next scene because we all know that will drive an artist away from his creation when it becomes more of an obligation than a fun hobby. I’m proud of you and all the manhours you’ve put into this. I’ve read every status update and every comment since it started. And I would like to say thank you, honestly for all your hard work. :) have a good day buddy
Haha yes! I love that Joe, who had always been an obnoxious, loud, and unreliable person becomes the REALLYstrong, REALLYsilent type when it comes to protecting his sister. EXCELLENT way to have him oust Victor. Bravo, sir.
@Monthlywaitguy – I already have a hulk in my underwears… … … yeah, I’ll see myself out.
@Bruce Knode – Yes, I laughed when his head snapped ;D
@ultimo89 – Thank you very much! It’s always awesome to hear/read such kind words :D You have a good day too!
*Victor being chocked mid-air by Joe using mindcrafting begin begging for his life when suddently CREAK and the music abruptly stop.”
I love it. This is one of the most badass moment of the pocalypse.
Also I think Joe can save Annika. Mind-crafting in the real world mean that he can alter reality to a small extend doesn’t it? Healing or event just closing the wound should’nt be too hard, thought a little more tricky than projecting blocks
@ Joe: Nice comeback :O
i hope anika lives
i hope god puts victor to HELL and punishes him for eternity
if u aggree say so in the comments
the next episode is going to be insane
……….. still spamming how long will you do this?
Hey joe, maybe you could try to post a new cap at half of month! i don’t wanna wait 3 months again!!!
Post FASTER!
I guess this is the opposite of a cliffhanger, where you’re more curious where it will go because it looks like there’s nowhere left for the plot to roam…
@Aslandus Don’t forget about the vampires going to Europe.
well i better summon him again to beat you down i think AND EAT YOUR EYES
Look like we have to wait a lot again :P.
you took a long time to answer back oh and VICTOR WILL HAUNT YOU FOREVER so spoky
@monthlywaitguy: don’t finish, Bruce has already offended too many people.
seriously though, I could mistake this comment section for 4chan at this point… it’s kind of sad.
I like this webcomic because of the content and story. I’d rather wait and have a great scene that left me coming back for more than a prequel to fill space. If you enjoy this webcomic as well you should be content with what can be done at the given time.I’d rather a carefully scripted webcomic than fillers for the impatient.
I was waiting for the next scene not victor -_-
I wasn’t talking to the comment, i was talking about the shows last night, if some of you guys know what i’m my saying.
it was so epic HA when victors neck just snapped i was like right on joe! lol
just to let you know i am trying to back hack your ip adders. so we can have a shot talk.
what is your fav number 45 or 357.
oh hey, Joe fixed the comment thing where it makes the webpage big, by removing the horizontal scroll bar, and not making the lines wrap. wow. um. ok. that’s a little roundabout. but you know, whatever works. also monthly wait guy, he will update, he’s working on the game, which will be awesome, or I will find Joe and make him pay for the missing updates, by making him post a high quality update, every day, forever. we know where you are Joe, and we will keep you alive.
nope, my browser glitched, still the excessive text, and it just goes longer than the page can handle and cuts it off. Joe, DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. It is too well known now, and I’m partly responsible for that, but it is a glitch on your webpage, and I would suggest googleing a way to auto wrap text in html.
@Monthly sick and wrong! just sick and wrong!
@Joe you are doing a great job, update when you have time. this comic is worth the wait. and i get a kick out of reading the comment, there all most as good as a update.
Trolls! Look what I have here! It’s a nice juicy comment chain on youtube! Go get it boys! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2oL9YJGc74&lc=QpGluUCaKegiqC-l_uHy_WRnZBrvnQstwC5IIuVTXIo
well, i’m going to never post here again until my name is completely forgotten. goodbye trolls, i’ll see you back at Alternia. tumut
k bai.
Don’t worry Joe. I still love you!
i think victor is an asshole because he kills joes sister gets him shot (twice)
and then he pleads for his life.
i think victor should get a life
@a toby fan I think that’s what he was trying to do with Joe. :D
hey, I’ve decided to post about important stuff, and I just got a malware warning on this site. thought Author Joe should know.
dammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn! this site was reported as an atack site!
now i cant watch joe without possibly getting a viris
@All – Eep! I get the same warning from Google Chrome when I visit the site! I can see malicious code in the site’s .js files and I’ve tried deleting the code whenever it shows up. I’m really sorry and I hope no one has been infected. I’m going to keep researching and trying to figure things out on my end and if any of you has any advice or insight please e-mail me at joe@grenpixel.ca :D Thank you so much for your understanding and, don’t worry, this won’t stop me from making scenes! :D
Of cause it won’t, you do that yourself. :P (Just joking)
and 3 months later, SCENE 19!!!
odds are, the malicious coding is a advertisement. usually is. trick is to isolate it and give it the boot :3
@Glich: Indeed. I doubt it’s the Project Wonderful ads, so it’s probably the Google ones.
It’s not as simple as just isolating it and kicking it out, though, you have to find it first. :(
@All – Do you still get the Google warning? I don’t get it anymore and it seems like Google accepted my request for a review :D
@Joe Seems to be fine at the moment.
@Pseudonym_ – Awesome :D Everything looks good on my end, too! Let’s hope we’ve seen the end of it!
man joe not to be rude but its getting boring not seeing the next scene
@joe everything is clear here, good job on making sure the pocalypse is safe.
Yep, everything seems fine here too! :D
Joe, Just wondering if there are any plans at this point to increase these a bit? I know the new job has been taking up a lot of time and all. However im thinking 1 a month or even every 3 months is just a bit too much. It is hard to follow the story now as by the time the next one is out I’ve forgotten what happened in the last one.
@Casey Then watch the previous one before starting the new ones.
Huh, Google Chrome warned me that a malicious virus is on the web page again…
@joe
Getting a blocked sight message from chrome again.
Haha, even the viruses like The Pocalypse. :P
I got the google warning just now
Happy 1st month joe!XD you just had a one month no show!
The virus is still here. I had to stop the page from loading to post that!
HELP US!!!
My antivirus detects the virus as “Kryptik.AOG trojan”.
Maybe is anyone trying to sabbotage our loved comic???
Wow… So many comments since last month… And a large portion of them have to do with a virus infecting this site??? Just what happened while I was gone… Some hacker came and plugged a self-destruct mechanism or something? :P
Oh, well… It might just be the machines trying to cross over to this world to tell Joe to hurry up because they can’t continue dominating the world if they are frozen in time. lol
If such a thing did happen, I’d blame C-Joe, he probably is desperate for news of his sister right now and willing to allow the machines take over to fulfill his goals! lol
Joking aside,I hope the virus is easier to eradicate than the zombie-virus…
Joe, as much as I hate to say it, it may be time to just hard reset the site. I know little to nothing about website programming, but it almost seems like it would be easier to just wipe everything than find the virus every time it appears.
@pseudonym> He should make sure to save all the scenes in a disc first, it would be a TRUE Pocalypse if he accidentally deleted all those scenes without back-up… *shudder*
…holy.. am I the only one who really, REALLY wants the music from this episode.. and.. maybe the rest? seriously, can you post the soundtrack or summin, it would be the sounds of awesome..
@NeoWarrior Yes, hackers are aiming at small webcomic sites now, didn’t you heard?
It was a Blackhole Exploit kit, it’s freakin’ everywhere nowadays, and it came here because by the definition of a “malware” it spreads itself through loopholes, weaknesses and un-updated software.
Yeah, I’m sure it was automated malware and no one was actually targeting The Pocalypse directly :D I don’t wanna jinx it but since we haven’t gotten a warning in a while, do you think we got it? Thank you all for your help and advice! :D
No warning here this time!
Nope it appears to be fixed Joe
*Pulls up chair* And now the waiting game begins..
Hey guys, it’s gonna be okay. I had a dream where Joe and Annika were reunited and I’m kinda psychic so maybe it will all work out.
Any chance we could get a new scene in the near future? Or possibly an ETA?
Joe, just a thought, would it be possible for you to create an ETA till the next scene at the top of the pocalypse. Just a suggestion to stop the mass of comments saying “when will the next scene be uploaded?”. It would work really well if you did it for each scene.
Your Fan
Shalidar
@Brutus & shalidar13 – I don’t want to make any promises but I hope to work on the next scene this Sunday :D
Joe you the man, keep on keeping on :D
@Joe thats good to know. Keep on working at it my fine fellow
Joe, I have 0 experience in anything related to the Pocalypse. I do, however, have a tad bit of experience with Pixel Art back when I used to lay Minecraft religiously. I wasn’t half bad either. In short, I would be willing to try and help design a few sprites for you if you are strapped for time.
Also, more attack page warnings.
@Pseudonym_ – Thank you so much for the offer! :D Unfortunately, it’s not the art that’s the time-eater, it’s putting the art, story, and animations together in Flash. I’ll definitely keep your offer in mind though! And, thanks for the page warning! I’ve taken care of it and the site is clean. Just waiting for Google to approve my review request :D
Joe, if you’d like me to create any custom music for your animations, I’d be glad to do so!
So do you have a new comic up for posting after Google finishes their review?
sweet.
Please make a new one soon… soon, please? :P
This was/is my favourite webcomic, but i haven’t visited your page for half a year because things have been standing so still.
Joe, I wish it were a false alarm, but you may need to check the site for infection… again. Which is terribly frustrating, though I’m sure it’s more so for you. When I visited this morning, I received a warning from Avast! that it prevented a trojan from executing on the page, rather then the ‘suspicious activity’ warning/block from google, as before. I don’t know if some hacker is trying to take advantage of the site’s pending return to being listed as clean publicly, or if there’s an infectious advertisement or what, but I hope you can get it figured out. I really love your work, and I know this kind of idiocy really throws a monkey wrench in your job, making it harder to focus on the comic itself. If it’s at all helpful, the trojan Avast! detected was JS:Includer-AJE. I wish I could give more details, such as what function, script, or file it’s piggybacking on, but unfortunately that was all I could get out of Avast!, and I don’t have the expertise to go digging through the source view to any meaningful degree. Good luck and Godspeed, Joe.
Hello again Mr. Trojan.
That was a very satisfying neck snap. I want that neck snap as my message tone so that i can get a good feeling inside knowing that bastards get their just desserts.
So yesterday I named my new dog Scrufflebeck.
@OrdinalChaos
You.
I like you.
You really need to get this site fixed, my AVG is screaming murder every time I open this page. It already blocked 4 different types of malware for me. I dunno if it’s any help, but this is what AVG has to say on the matter: http://www.avgthreatlabs.com/website-safety-reports/domain/thepocalypse.com/#analytics
Thanks for letting me know about the virus stuff, everyone! :D (Again, ugh)
I don’t get any Avast warnings anymore, do you? It sucks that I have to manually wipe the site clean after every warning but I’ve been getting a lot of great advice from all of you and I hope to figure this out one day haha :D
@OrdinalChaos – Ahh! Awesome!! You gotta send me a pic, please! I’d love to post a picture of a real Scrufflebeck :D
Me too now with the viruses,im getting multiple AVG messages saying its a blackhole root kit. To get this far without being blocked by avg was a challenge!
Yeah blackhole exploit Joe, luckily now Im getting protected by AVG but its everytime I come on before google stopped it but that seems to be sorted and now this, sucks for you Joe.
Just anyone here without AVG or any other protection, get it check now.
Yo Joe, I’m getting warnings again :/ These are dark days for the pocalypse…
You know something is wrong when you get more viruses than updates.
@bobsickle: The viruses are from the ads, just so you’re aware. A sign that Google Adwords really needs to purge its databanks, I’d say.
Although it’s sad that Pocalypse is the only webcomic I read doing this. Real shame. But at least I’ve seen this scene already so I’m not missing anything as of yet.
Er. mah. gurd. Shame I wasn’t on to see this live stream, but this is just… too much cliff hanger. Also, that scene where Joe snaps Victor’s neck… Victor’s face is just soooo CREEPY!
