Prologue - Page 1: The Youthful Couple

Well, this is it. This project has been literally years in the making, as it's been brewing in my mind since I first finished the game in 2000 (coherent scenes that I recall to this day didn't start forming until summer of 2002). At any rate, I had been putting it off and putting it off, until finally, just this last April, when I came back to this site after a long absence and discovered that Mother 3 was soon to be released. That brought back the fanboy in me, and I wasted no time in making plans for a comic series of my favorite game in the whole trilogy - Mother 1. The mysterious elements of this game, and the uncanny landscapes which remind me of my childhood, have long held me entranced. So, I present to you what has been on paper only since April, but what has been cooking up in my mind since six years earlier.
To comment on this specific page, I'd like to admit that the introductory narrative was a bad decision on my part. For future reference, the phrase "Little did they know" automatically cheese-ifies ANY piece of fiction. George and Maria needed no formal introduction - they introduce each other. I should have used a single subtitle saying "Outskirts of a rural American town, circa 1906", but I guess it's all water under the bridge now.

This, and the next ten pages, comprise a scene that I had sketched out while working on the Halloween comic, and which had been lying dormant until some time ago, when I finally got around to inking and coloring it.
It's sandwiched in between Halloween pages 3 and 4.

I wonder if all this humor is too jarring of a mood whiplash, considering what just happened to Pippi and Marilyn...?
I wonder if I just worry about this stuff unnecessarily...?

I look back on this and wonder, why isn't Ninten getting as much use out of that bat as he can? Was I so absent-minded at the time I didn't even think to have him bash the crows, even though he's got the thing *right there in his hand*?

Character development can be painful. It's actually starting to annoy *me* how much of a wuss Ninten is this early on.
Still, you try taking on that many foes by yourself, with nothing but a tattered old baseball bat...

You're just not a MOTHER fan if you're not hearing the Hippie theme music here.
