Nice. It's a little jumbled so I had to read through it a couple times, but great crossver idea.

hmmm :-? I hate to say I didn't really like this one, I dare say the only mosaic I have really disliked so far.

Sure it's not the best mosaic ever, but I like the mash up of the two universes.

It took me 5 minutes to figure out what happened. I realized this is a homage to Animated Shockwave/Longarm! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Very creative mixup. It looks like you'd like to get Jolt off the future series... at first I was trying to find any resemblance to movieverse Longarm, but in the end ev'rything gets clerarer. Nice mossaic.

I get the reference, but that's not how Longarm looks in the Movie continuity. :-(

Don't like it. Don't like Shockwave/Long Arm.

"Hey Longarm, watcha doin'?"
"Uh, I, uh... Let me tell you a story."
*story of addiction and missing characters*
"Oh, haha! Bye, Longarm."

Those gullible humans.
:lol:


The fact that there's already a movie Longarm helps the surprise at the end a secret.

HA! That was great, though Punch's face looked....odd...
I like how ShockWave looked though, very cool.

nice! this is a really good one :)
I can see how some people would be confused (I had forgotten there was already a movie Longarm), but it's a great nod to TFA

I'm a fan of the movies and Animated, so I love this. Honestly one of my favorites, not the best art, but it's far beyond anything I could ever do.

Using Punch/counterpunch in a story about Shockwave/Longarm is pure genius

I like it. Animated Shockwave/Longarm is one of my favorite characters. :BOT: / :CON: :D

Well I am finding more fandom about the movie universe is taking on animated occurances and mashing them together. I wonder if this is what the fans want?

Shockwave has "headlights." :grin:

I gotta be honest (I'd say to a fault) but I didn't like this one either. It seems like they just kinda shoehorned in animated Shockwave/Longarm into the story, though always nice to see Punch/Counter Punch they need to use him more.

Nice. Love the TFA Shockwave/Longarm tribute. Also like the way you designed Shockwave. Keep up the good work! :CON:
