Halloween 2013!

By /

Happy Halloween everyone!! May you have fun with friends and eat candy until you feel profoundly ill!!

This comic was a trial, but to be completely honest I’m really happy with how it turned out. A couple of tricky costumes fell into place rather well, and I managed to get it all done in time for Halloween night! I hope you enjoyed it!

Last year had Hannah as Susan Sto Helit, which was promptly guessed, so this year I’ve ramped it up and have given you some pretty tough costumes to guess! Though I’ve also sprinkled a few hints around, so with some guessing and some Googling I think you’ll be able to get them all! Here, I’ll give you one for free: the flower was dressed as Danny DeVito.

BWAAHAHAHAHA

Have a safe and fun night, everyone!

-Jesse

UPDATE: I’ll list the guessed costumes here for simplicity’s sake. Maxx is a catgirl (I’ll give you guys that one, since you were guessing specific catgirls), Aley is Tinkerbell, the Merchant is Mr. Krabs, Cyril is Cyrano de Bergerac, and the Demo is a wild haggis (I seriously can’t believe you got that one). Hannah is Gwynevere. June is the only one left now!

UPDATE 2: Since June has stumped people so far, I’ll start giving out hints:

-She’s a character from a video game.

-The game is quite rare, but is considered a cult classic.

-Oft-mocked and now-defunct company THQ published it for the N64!

-Also, the answer is hidden in Comic 322 🙂

UPDATE 3: Congratulations to Scharling for correctly guessing Brenna, from Aidyn Chronicles! Thanks all for your participation! I already can’t wait for next year’s guessing game!

    Aley’s Tinkerbell, the Merchant is Mr. Krabs from SpongeBob, Maxx is some sort of cat. All I got so far

        Oh, you’re right, thanks. After looking up the original text, I found that ‘pourrait’ should also be ‘pouvait’.

        I guess my French is getting pretty seriously rusty…

        Oh, and great guesses! All correct!

      I rushed that comment so I could get first, but since I missed it anyways, here’s some more content. I really like this one! Maxx is Halle berry as cat woman, merchant is mr krabs(fitting), Hannah is a Victorian Era woman, aley is tinker bell, June is… Robin Hood? And I am pretty sure Cyril is a French opera actor.

    No one noticed Jesse used the new biome that is alternative to the corruption?
    Well, I’m the first to point out now.

      i noticed it before i saw this comment and even if you didnt comment yet i dont think i would need to point it out because i thought everyone here knew what the crimson was (thats what its called btw)

    The Merchant is Mrs. Krabs from SpongeBob. Good idea! They have a lot of similarities! They both love money and… Er … Perhaps this is all.

    1. Shadow_Mantis

      MR. Krabs. Not Mrs. Krabs. If anything Mrs. Krabs would of been his mother. Which yes I know she has been seen in the show before.

      I dislike that that indicates only one boss a year…
      But I still like that. It’s a nice touch. And go at your own pace Jesse. Ignore all us simpletons down here and do as you feel works.

      1. cookieepic

        Funny, because last year’s eye of cthulu pumpkin had a Eater of Worlds fight not long after it in the comics.

        Judging by the last few story-related comics (before the interviews) You can bet your butter we’ll be seeing good ol’ skeletron soon.

    I think June’s Maid Marian from Robin hood? Or have I been reading too much literature? And I think the Demolitionist is a dwarf from Dwarf Fortress or something..

    1. Jesse

      I’m pretty sure you just won everything. The wild haggis was my ringer! Even with the hints I put in, I was thinking it would be the one to stump everyone. Well I’ll be darned. Nice work.

      1. deadminerwalking

        Well, it was a good little mental challenge peicing clues together. And i will admit that the Haggis and Mr. Krabs were the only ones I actually got. But great job as usual with the comic.

    1. magicbeefy

      Link has a green hat and green tunic, the blue version of him had blue hat and blue tunic, June’s costume has a blue hat and green tunic, so no she is not link

    1. DeathDoesGaming

      no read the time they were posted deadminerwalking was 1:16 and neon’s post was 2:15 on same day so neon wasn’t the first neon was just saying turns out it was a haggis because jesse said it was and he must have read it

    If it weren’t for the hoods different colouring, I’d guess that June is Link from the Legend of Zelda series.

    The reason is due to the green tunic with the yellow belt, Brown gloves are boots. But because of the hoods different colouring, It killed my guess.

      1. Squideer

        One last clue I missed originally, Which further makes me think my guess is correct. (Aside from the hood colouring)

        Last panel, June is talking to a fairy. Anyone who has played some Legend of Zelda games know some sort of fairy travels with Link.

    man i love your legend of maxx comic i can’t wait for more and congrats on getting the hammsush in the game

  43. Awsonymous

    Where are cloaked-advisor-man and swordwielding-hammock-boy and what they are dressed as is the better question.

      1. Squideer

        Probably the only one who pointed out Tyrone’s costume. :p

        Dressed up as something dead so he couldn’t be killed.

  55. The Brain Of Cthulhu

    I swear I know exactly who June is but I can’t remember the game.

    League of legends? Dota? Rune? I know its one of those three.

    1. Jesse

      BAM! You got it! Congratulations!! It’s been a long run XP I guess I’ve learned that there *is* such a thing as too obscure a reference… especially when you’re talking about tiny, poorly drawn sprite characters. If I may ask, what made you figure it out?

  71. Mr Man

    Nice Maxx costume, the reason that he is saying “Nya” is a reference to Nyan Cat. Nice one, Jesse!
