Description
Thrilled to have this in my collection. It reminds me of the opening screen of one of the fighting video games played in my youth (Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Tekken). Thank you Felix and Daniel. My DAPB one and done... except I bought more. Is this five first appearances?!?! :-D

YES! That middle "VS" panel had me thinking of King of Fighters or Killer Instinct games! Great pickup Yo!

For a while, we loved the art we could choose
We were young and we knew, and our eyes were alive
Deep inside we knew the work was shoot
For a while we kept our mind to the past
We knew Yua's fast
Every night somethin' fight
Would invite us to begin the dance
Wrasslin' happened along kayfabe
What used to be happy was sad
Daniel Warren Johnson art day
And cut scene pages were to be had

And oh, after the Powerbomb
How could you lead me on
And not let me game around?
Oh, after the Powerbomb
What used to be right is wrong
Can Cobrasun be found?

Outstanding page!  Gorgeous and memorable, and it sets us up for a tragic match and an amazing story.  It is certainly a proper birth page for 4 characters, but is Cobrasun actually "appearing" here or is that a screenshot of a poster bearing his likeness?  I need to consult the OA rulebook

This page really crackles with energy. What kid who grew up with Street Fighter or its knockoffs wouldn't appreciate the character selection screen homage in the central panel?

Both a wrestling AND "vs" video game vibe!  You can tell DWJ had all sorts of fun with this!  Congrats!

The Vs. panel is just so epic. It definitely reminds of all those fighters. Man, I loved Tekken. Excellent page, YK

Killer page from DWJ's Do A Power Bomb! One of the best pages in the book! I alsoG got the Mortal Kombat reference the moment I saw this page. I could hear the sound effect ringing in my ears (Isn't that wierd how a visual can cue a sound effect in your ears?). Love that third panel so much! Kickass pick-up, congrats!
