aka "Wherein Malfurion Stormrage discovers the true Nightmare"



It may seem like a really blunt punchline/CSI meme joke, but to WoW fans with a basic lore understanding, it's actually a very clever punchline/CSI meme joke.

Well that last part isn't clever but whatever.

VARIAN.



This was drawn on two pieces of bristol paper, and scanned in sections. I pieced them together, darkened the lines in Photoshop 7 and swapped it over to Paint Tool SAI for colouring.



This may very well be...my most aesthetically-pleasing, well-drawn comic (to those who've never seen my comics, they're all crap-tastic, so if you find this one shitty then please do not venture further into my gallery of 5-year-old comics).

AND YET I WASTED IT ON WORLD OF WARCRAFT WHYYYYYY.



Four hours. Prisma pens on bristol paper, edited in Photoshop 7 and coloured in Paint Tool SAI.



For those who would enjoy a small lore explanation, WoW fans or not: In World of Warcraft, Arch-Druid Uber 1337ness of the Stars Malfurion Stormrage fights the Nightmare, a chaotic force corrupting the realm of the green dragon, Ysera, known as the Emerald Dream. To enter the Dream, one must succumb to a long slumber than can span centuries. Malfurion has been asleep, fighting the Nightmare in the Dream with Ysera, since the battle for Mount Hyjal when Archimonde of the Burning Legion attacked (roughly 10 years ago at this point of the current WoW MMORPG expansion, give or take).

With Deathwing the Destroyer now on a rampage, and Ragnaros the Firelord and the Twilight's Hammer encroaching the sacred grounds of Hyjal, Ysera, Malfurion and possibly Hamuul Runetotem (he was probably asleep too) are awake and ready to fight.
