Incidentally, this



is the image I don't much care for.

Square jaw, muscly arms, stoic expression.

We're not Channing Tatum, we're some dork with a gun and a strong sense of responsibility!

The thing that most feels like a mismatch for me is the apparent age.

Look at that guy. Mid twenties at the tail end. He's a new conductor, and he's getting a helluva first day on the job. Hell, maybe he just picked up the uniform off a corpse, figured that confidence would be good enough in the apocalypse, because yeah. He's good enough.

Meanwhile, our guy? He's older. Middle aged, got a bit of a beer belly, been running trains most of his life and you know what? That's fine. It's not a bad life, pays enough to help the family. Only now the world's gone to poo poo and he's suddenly responsible for the best chance its got, stumbling along because it's not like anyone has a better plan.

It's odd.

Space madness would be an alright explanation of what went down, though.

But no excuse for space rudeness.
