Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

The plot of "Edge Walker" is still going on, and at the same time, this year's Rookie Grand Prix voting came to an end with last year's Rookie Grand Prix, and also quietly started during this time.

However, out of the four comic works by newcomers that originally participated in the competition last year, only three are now left.

Because the work of a newcomer was cut off in half due to its low popularity.

After all, Manjie Culture Company has regulations. If a work is ranked last in popularity for four consecutive issues, or if its popularity drops by more than 20% three times in a row, it will announce that the work will be cut in half.

Even newcomers are no exception.

So before the voting for the Rookie Grand Prix started, a newcomer's work was directly cut in half.

Naturally, the rest are three new works including "Edgewalker" and "Psychic Warlock".

Not surprisingly, "Edgewalker" is directly ahead of "Psionic" and another newcomer's work.

After all, the popularity of "Edge Walker" is currently stable at the fourth or fifth place. It even reached the third place in episode 23 when Mann and Dorio retired.

This is simply not a ranking that a newcomer can hit.

Not to mention causing a small sensation inside and outside the industry, and even causing a lot of crowds in the United States.

Even in the past twenty years, comics magazines, including the entire comics industry, have never seen such ferocious newcomers.

It can be said that Lin Qingshan and his "Edge Walker" are the record-breaking works of newcomers and newcomers in the past twenty years.

As soon as the official website of the comic book community started voting for the Newcomer Grand Prix, "Edge Walker" was far ahead of the other two newcomers' works with only a few hundred votes, with more than 18,000 votes.

How does this compare? Can't compare, can't compare at all.

Especially everyone knows that the winning work of the Newcomer Grand Prix will be made into an animation and broadcast.

This makes fans of "Edge Walker" even more excited to see the animation of "Edge Walker"!

In fact, the comic industry has already decided to put the animation production of "Edge Walker" on the agenda.

At the same time, it is also planned to release a complete set of stand-alone books directly after the completion of "Edge Walker".

After all, "Edgewalker" is indeed a phenomenal comic at the moment.

Its emerging cyberpunk genre was once even more popular.

No, "Edgewalker" is not finished yet.

Future science fiction comics similar to "Edge Walker" are appearing in the industry, and even comic magazines have received many cyberpunk-themed comics.

The main focus is to draw whatever subject matter is popular, and the main focus is the speed of the Republic.

"Edge Walker" continues to be serialized here, and the latest episode, Chapter 28, has also come out.

but……

Zhou Wenwei opened the magazine directly, and then found the 28th episode of "Edge Walker" without reading other works.

Chapter 28 "The Past".

The first few episodes directly show David's life after becoming the new leader of the team and a big shot in Night City.

At the same time, Faraday, the client of Three Eyes, also found David and explained the purpose of military technology.

Immediately following the plot of the previous chapter, David directly crossed the bustling city of Night City and returned to his current new home.

Lucy smiled as always at David who came over from work and said, "Welcome home."

After that, David and Lucy started chatting like they were a family.

During the period, the screen also showed the ashes of David's late mother Gloria, as well as a photo of David and her during her lifetime.

The two people were chatting together, and the bodies with completely different shapes sitting together were obviously traces of prosthetic transformation.

But it is more sincere than any honest meeting.

After laughing and chatting for a while, David looked at Lucy.

"that……"

"Um?"

Lucy hummed in confusion.

"We have a big deal to take on."

David said hesitantly.

"That's really exciting."

Lucy said with a smile.

"I mean...if you could join."

David spoke his true thoughts.

However, Lucy declined politely, "The team doesn't need two hackers now."

"You know I would rather..."

"David...please wait a little longer."

Lucy looked at David and said.

David looked at Lucy's serious eyes and chuckled, "Okay, then I understand."

"Did you sneak in again today?"

The conversation changed and David said.

"Um."

"Why not buy a good hacker suit?"

"No need."

"We can buy the latest hacker chair. It will definitely...be more comfortable than the ice pool."

"Thank you, but I don't like wearing hacker suits."

Lucy turned her face away and said with some depression.

"I see...I'm sorry, I don't know."

David said and took a sip of wine.

The young man who once didn't know how to drink is now used to the taste of wine.

Zhou Wenwei was a little emotional when he saw it.

At this time, Lucy looked at David and suddenly said, "Well, David..."

"follow me."

The scene changed, and the two of them drove a motorcycle to the deserted countryside outside Night City.

"This starry sky is awesome!"

David looked at the starry sky in front of him and said with a smile.

"You can't see such a scene in Night City, can you?"

Lucy said with a smile too.

However, when Zhou Wenwei looked at the starry sky in the comics, the dotted starry sky was not that dazzling.

Not to mention beautiful.

It's just... when I think about the world in the comics where capitalism is prevalent and the development environment is overly developed, then this starry sky, which is not very beautiful, is a rare beauty in that world.

“Think I can catch a star?”

"Fool……"

"I really hope we can see the moon..."

"The moon is not out, so the stars can be so bright..."

"is that so?"

…

David and Lucy looked at the stars and laughed happily.

Such warmth...it's so nice.

Especially living in this night city where you don't know when you will die suddenly.

"This is my first time leaving Night City."

David said with some emotion.

"That's it..."

Lucy suddenly felt depressed.

David stared at the stars and asked, "Have you ever lived outside Night City?"

Hearing this, Lucy's eyes were downcast and a little sad.

“Looking at the Night City from here, it looks like a cage made of twinkling lights.”

In the Night City where David and Lucy look, the flashing neon lights are clearly visible even at night.

It is indeed like a prison.

"Before, you said that I was different from you, do you remember?"

David suddenly talked about what happened before.

Zhou Wenwei also suddenly remembered the scene in episode 15?

"Do you want to know?"

Lucy asked in response to David's inquiry.

David said slowly, "I just...want to get to know you better."

At this moment, Lucy finally began to open up to David and talk about her unbearable past.
