Because Skyrim is Act 6. Tamriel is the post-Scratch universe.

Figures Hussie would pull that, it was literally true that Jade was her penpal's grandmother. Jeez, Andrew Hussie is this world's Doc Scratch.

Edit Though Jade refers to J as a "he," so who knows.

What's the "only of her kind" thing supposed to mean here? Do we have a planet with both humans and trolls on it now or something? What did you do, Doc Scratch?


I like the red/green inversion, though. That's clever, and not something I was thinking about when looking at the dots for the acts. This is going to go some very interesting places.

Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff as successful franchise with a live action movie is amazing though.

You ever see the first episode of Spongebob? I imagine it's a lot like that.

:lol: I refuse to be unconvinced that this is anything but a swipe at Skyrim.

EDIT: I will say that while I completely expected the act to start this way (really, there was no other way this was gonna start and anybody who really thought this was gonna open with the kids and trolls again was just kinda deluding themselves), a couple things significantly threw me, as is always the way with Hussie:
1. The kids are apparently 15 in this one. I like it. The first crop of kids always reminded me of sarcastic 15-16 year olds anyway.
2. Empire? Only one of her race? What the fuuuuuck is goin' on here. :stare:

Hmm, what troll would even have occasion to use a DOCtor's computer, i wonder?

Also, there is nothing from this comic i wish were true more than SB&HJ starring Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller. My life, it would be so much fuller...

Oh and so I guess that means that in this universe Dad Egbert has been replaced by Betty Crocker/Her Imperial Condence? That'd make sense.

I have to wonder how Hussie is going to pace Act 6 with this "new world stuff" that won't make it tiring since we've gone through this thing like twice now basically. It's neat in the implications and where he can go with it, but the directions will ultimately be tempered one way or another by the need to keep it moving with some level of alacrity lest the whole crew ends up off screen for like six months again.

So I guess this is the scratched session and we're looking at a version of Nanna? If so, I'm surprised that for once the speculation before an update turned out to be pretty much correct!

If she dresses in blue and starts using "SPOOOOON" as a battle cry when she gets to the medium then Ms. Crocker is going to become the most popular character in this series by several orders of magnitude.

He's got four introductions to convey as many bulletpoints as possible. From there, I'm reasonably sure we'll probably be able to figure out the rest ourselves. I have a few guesses as to what we're dealing with here already (troll empire rules the planet, maybe somewhat benevolently, but probably not), but I could be way off course.

I have the feeling he's going to start to put it into motion like the other sequences, then quickly subvert our expectations by having the kids and/or trolls arrive, mucking all the post-scratch world's tidy storylines up into this weird mess and drawing the attention of the new earth-based Doc Scratch or Lord English or maybe just Betty Crocker. Who knows. But then of course we're jumping right back into where we were, with the added complexity of basically hijacking this 'new' session being run by the guardian-kids.

What I'm wondering is why it is Sburb Alpha. There was that thing Nannasprite said to John a long time ago, too, about him progressing the game faster than she did. Maybe something weird is going on. Or maybe I'm just overthinking this. Guess we'll find out eventually.
