Dear False Positive Readers,
This is Ashley Walton, Mike’s sister and editor of False Positive. I have really terrible, awful news and a tiny bit of good news.
You might have noticed it’s been a couple years since we’ve posted anything on this website. Well, brace yourself for the saddest update I’ll ever share.
Madam, run. Just run. You are in a Flase Positve comic that is rapidly approaching its climax. flee the county
I’d say, flee the planet.
Even that cannot save you!!
Well, its not like that’s a significant thing or anything, yeah medical can patch that up fine…
Maybe I’m just too eager to find connections, but I thought maybe when the ‘specimen’ is finished breaking down the man, what’s left might be the alien that we saw in “redeem”, in the tank full of water.
There’s something on your lip.
Hum…
Incinerate the whole room?
Hey, madam, where did you lef this flamethrower?
I forget, have any of the False Positives had a happy ending?
That depends, do you count Exiled? Father and daughter survive and gain superpowers. That also goes for Found in his Hand.
Ache was totally a happy ending. Aliens lived happy ever after.
The ending of Sentinel was…okay.
“Happy” is relative.
1 .Redeemed: Dude got brought back from the dead and gets to hang with a god.
2. Sentinel: Ladies got away and the kids found more food.
3. Cache: Lady found a friend.
4. Yolk: Dude found purpose and immortality, maybe.
5. Cops ‘n Robbers: Pretty happy kids with renewable energy and cool video-games.
6. Wayfarer: Lady got rid of the trickster god.
7. Cleanup: Dude got things cleaned up.
8. Detained: MacReady got what she wanted.
9. Exiled: Immortality.
10. Found in His Hand: Dude saved his daughter.
I wager this one won’t be a happy ending for anybody but the “alien yeast.”
So, she’s here to investigate the missing whatever-it-is. I would think that Command would have sent someone who is not only up to speed on the specimen and it’s characteristics, but also KNOWS the protocol for emergencies just like this. Honey, this is HIGHLY unprofessional…
Then again, once the scientist has been rendered down to his inevitable (and unenviable) state, there should be PLENTY of specimen to study again. HOORAY! Specimen replenishment!
The Dark side says, ‘Run! Run you fool!’
The only {kind} thing you can do for that guy.. is put two in his head and one in his chest…
Ewww! The snot monster is getting in his mouth!
Don’t recall the name of the story, but what about those things that were living inside their bodies. the one that came out when the guy yanked his tooth out and then wound up living inside the cat?
I don’t see any problem or danger here.
Lady: “Well, um… I see you have found your misplaced specimen.
So… don’t bother getting up, I’ll let myself out.”
Actually I’m curious what kind of creature this will turn out to be: a Blob (assimilation into the biomass), a Thing (assimilate and impersonate), one of those Stink Eye critters, a God, …
Take two “aspirin” and call me after the apocalypse.
Well, at least now we know what it eats.
i think repeatedly saying shit is a pretty appropriate reaction for that situation… in fact i may say it a bit more for good measure…
Lady, I’m not sure if a doctor can just patch up an unknown life form that got stuck in someones face.
