086-090 : "But the Foot Clan Hammer Users weren't green."

I could have had them put up resistance, but come on. They're the freakin' FOOT CLAN. They exist only to job. Well, unless you're facing a few of those spear guys with some of the machine gunners directly behind them, and you're playing with three people in the arcade who all think the Jump button is the Attack button. They're usually pretty successful against the turtles in that case.

"Charging Hard" is the name of Heihachi Mishima's 'right kick counter' in the Tekken series. Struck me as an odd name, so that's why I used the term here.

The infamous green "MOUSER!" hammer foot soldier comes from my "Project 2K5" RPG. At one point, you face members of the Foot Clan as random encounters, and one potential encounter had that same foot soldier and two mousers attacking you, and it was positioned such that it looked like he was attacking the mouser, not you. After wathing one of my friends face that encounter a half-dozen times before completing the area, the "MOUSER!" catchphrase stuck with us.


… and remind me never to use the "gun out, stuck in one animation frame" pose for this many panels in a row again. This particular page looks like it could have been designed by a 9-year old. :D
