Blocky
Intro
Blocky, a.k.a "The HuTAK" is an online comic made with the Half-Life 2 engine in a HL2 mod called "Garry's Mod". It is about a giant snake made of Cinder blocks. It takes place in a giant yard with tall concrete walls surrounding it. Many crazy events take place in the series, including numerous random portals, God and Satan being birds, and Heaven and Hell being exactly the same except Hell has terrible parking. The only other real main character is a friendly (if not too smart) stoner known only as "Steve" who formerly lived in City 17, only to be teleported to The HuTAK later to be revealed by God, who needed Steve to go stop Satan who lived next door.
Blocky made its debut on LUElinks in a topic entitled "LOL at horrible stories made using Garry's mod. (WARNING, HORRIBLE STORY INSIDE)" by the user SuperCybershell13, the creator of the series. The first Blocky was very popular, and about 2 weeks late Cybershell13 released "Blocky 2", which was also well liked. The comics are about 100 or so "Panels" with captions, thus being rather long. The comic was on Hiatus since mid-february, but recently Cybershell13 finished Blocky 3. So far the first 2 comics were hosted on Imageshack, the third on atgig.com, and the official website and likely the 4th and so on will be on http://txbox.com
The public can now view the episodes at http://blocky.txbox.com/
Characters
- Blocky. The main character of the series; a snake made of cinderblocks. usually quiet and keeps to himself. He's lived in The HuTAK for a number of years, and eats humans. It takes him months to digest it though, so he doesn't need to eat often.
- Steve. Blocky's best friend, and a stoner. He's a nice guy usually, but he's incredibly stupid. He can be very determined, and little annoyances such as death and being homeless won't stop him. He also has a brother named Joe.
- G-Man. The man Steve meets on the Train back to The HuTAK. Not much is known where he came from, or where he WAS going, but he was very quiet and hostile toward anyone curious about him.
- God and Satan. The almight good and evil in the universe take the form of birds to talk to Steve. God reveals Steve is the 3rd reincarnation of Jesus, (2nd being Captain Planet) and needs him to stop Satan, who's being annoying.
- The Repo Man. The government tax collecter who kicks Blocky and Steve out of the HuTAK. He enjoys taking things from people, whether it be money, furnature, or children.
- Joe. Steve's brother, who lets him live with him after getting kicked out of the HuTAK. They act alike, and confuse Blocky. He meets his end when Civil Protection storms his building and kills him.
- Civillians. The citizens of City 17 occasionally play a minor role.
