Originally released October 17th, 2018.
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: The Kings of Horror are back! ...and boy do they disappoint!

[@pokejoseph]

So Mechakara became the very thing he hated Human

[@shis1988]

He became HUUUUUMAAAAAAAANNNNNN...

[@xl9079]

Even worse, he became Linkara.

[@LupineShadowOmega]

@@xl9079 I wouldn't even say worse. Those are two very distinct horrors for him I think. And he's experiencing them both.

[@lwanco1018]

HE IS A MAN! (punch)

[@LordTyph]

He always was what he hated. It's just that now he's even more what he hated.

[@Rixec2]

And so our three themes of the Halloween storylines come to pass. The horrific supernatural of Silent Hill showing the "clone" it never wanted the answers, leading to the paranoia of The Thing showing the truth of the identity was more than the"clone" could bear, leading to the fear of the abstract of Nightmare on Elm Street showing the fear of becoming what you hate so much.

[@deterlanglytone]

Was that intentional? Because that sounds pretty cool, even if the comics weren't all that great.

[@aros0018]

I'm reminded of something Rob Walker sort of once said in his and Doug's Real Thoughts on the Matrix movies. "It's better to have a twist that's obvious rather than one that's surprising but doesn't make any sense." Mechakara's reveal was something a lot of people saw coming but it's still a good twist because it works with what's been established. It makes sense within the established narrative. I thought it was going to be the Entity thinking it was Linkara but Mechakara actually works a lot better.

[@littlebitsofterror5788]

To be honest I thought the cliffhanger was implying this was the Linkara Mechakara killed come back to life but this is a nice twist though.

[@Xel963]

Reminds me of DC's Monarch character... Only Linkara did the right thing and didn't change things when everyone could see the answer coming. :3

[@135mikerules23]

This truly is Mechakara’s “hell” not only is he human and looks like his most hated organic, not only does he have the memories of his past failings for over a decade (thanks Whatley for the nod) but now even IF he found a way to kill Linkara, he will forever be stuck in a replica body of him forever. He also knows that when/if he fails this will be his final chance to kill Linkara and if Linkara finds a way to end him this time well, to quote Thanos: “No more resurrections this time”

[@ShanaReviews]

I honestly expect him to go full Megatron from Beast Machines, seeking a way to purge himself of his organic body and to be put into a new mechanical one

[@gregdeandrea1450]

You... Have become a better actor over the last decade. Pants to be darkened.

[@Fanatic_Foremem]

I mean, his mechakara was always very chilling. Even in his introduction with the review was unsettling when he was pretending to be Linkara.

[@gregdeandrea1450]

Oh, no. I'm not saying that he was ever a bad actor (at least for a non-professional) but go back and look at the first Mechakara arc, and then come back and take a look at this. Night and day, I'm telling you. And I think Linkara would agree.

[@Lunacorva]

@@gregdeandrea1450 Not only the writing, but the dialogue. The original Mechakara was servicable, but a bit wooden. But ever since the movie, his every word DRIPS with hatred and venom.

[@anotherdude5974]

So, Mechakara I think that everyone called it but i gotta say the reveal was great and extremely fitting for the character. So it seems that he was completely rebuild as a full human, that's why it couldn't be detected as a clone or alternate dimension Linkara, he was completely rebuild but because of the influence of the alternate Pollo it is not a 100% replica, maybe it doesn't even count as "human". Also, yeah, of course Mechakara is the villain for the 10th anniversary, he's the very first "serious" villain the show had & he's the most "comic book villain" out of all of Linkara's rouge gallery so it's extremely fitting But one question still remain... How in hell did Mechakara get here? he just kinda showed up out of nowhere

[@ethanharper8346]

lord vice could be considered also

[@Blaizokaran]

How did they he get here, you ask? Honestly, a better question would be, what can't the Plot Hole do? Because at this point, anytime it's introduced as a major part of a story, it can generally be assumed to be the answer for anything nonsensical or otherwise unexplained.

[@anotherdude5974]

No, no, the Plot Hole is mentioned here only because Mechakara was close to it once so he still radiates its energy, what rebuild Mechakara was Europa which was shown to be able to even revive people. Also i think the Plot Hole it's kinda of the definitive Deus Ex Machina, you literally don't need to explain it as it cannot be explained really, at least that's what i think (The Plot Hole was a Nostalgia Critic thing at first anyway, it's normal it isn't that explained, in To Boldly Flee i literally don't know what the plot hole was supposed to be)

[@tavila]

I’m asking the same question. My working theory is that the radiation on Europa must burnt itself out resurrecting and converting mechakara to human, but a dead body on Europa would be counter to “the wish granting field.” So what power was left teleported BiomechKara to home. Aka Linkaras house.

[@the4thwallkid132]

That ending right there when mechakara revealed himself was both scary and awesome all at the same time, I swear I felt goosebumps from pressure of it!

[@Gusterson98]

My heart was racing!

[@timothybrackin9429]

I'm thinking that with the comic's ending, it was more along the line that it ensured that things would play out as they normally would. After all, Freddy was let free on a technicality after his arrest warrant was found to be improperly notarized. Having someone that's not supposed to exist notarize a legal document of that nature sounds like the very definition of a technicality. Implying that yes, Agent Carter was the reason Freddy eventually became the dream demon, and in turn making this thing a whole cyclical mess... or else it unintentionally signals the reboot of Freddy into his Jackie Earle Haley style. As for the story... I did see it coming, but the way that the revelation was laid out was very well done. Excellent mood lighting, the telltale thunderclaps, and the reveal of what he did to his face... Loved it. I am so looking forward to what the 10th Anniversary brings.

[@mercenaryknight5419]

Except that is not what the implication is here in the comic with the last line. You put more thought into it then the makers did.

[@XXsirstrawhatXX]

dear god... the plot hole turned him into the very thing he hated the most!

[@ethanharper8346]

poetic justice at its best

[@katecastreviews4639]

Y'know, I didn't think Mechakara could be scarier without the robot modulation in his voice, but here we are. Hang on. Let me dig up an appropriate re-occuring joke to fit the proper reveal..... PANTS TO BE DARKENED!!!! There we go.

[@Jigglysaint]

*Me talking to Mechakara* "Honey, we've been callin' you from the start of this storyline."

[@ShroudedWolf51]

Here's a question I've had for a while. Is the movie cannon to the storyline? I've been watching the playlist, but the episodes following the film don't seem to acknowledge it....but, then again, you have references.

[@sguinn91]

[@Bobsheaux]

"Why not 'Bah-Weep-Gra-Nah-Weep-Ninny-Bong'?" Ooh, bad idea. I tried that once, and it just invoked the unholy powers of Weird Al. There was bologna and rocky road ice cream everywhere...

[@yakiimox]

When i saw the reveal, i got a callback to Doctor Who: " But it's worse than that. Driven mad by your own flesh...the stink of humanity. You hate your own existence. And that makes them more deadly than ever." I cannot wait for the conclusion!

[@anthonyrodriguez8788]

I completely agree that quote fits very well and I am glad that Mechkara didn't die In a crossover movie as a minor villain. Quick side note I kind of find it hard to beleive that Mechakara is deadlier than ever considering when he had his robot body he could adapt to his enemies weapons like a borg and he was physically strong enough to beat General Zod (A Kryptonian) sensless.

HistoricaHungarica then just put the name of every franchise in a hat and take them out one by one for the sequels

Re: Leatherface. I think that's what Ash's line about "going to Texas" was about. It was a set-up to bring that franchise into the mix in another sequel.

Lee Phillips We live in the age of MCU-cloning. At least THIS frenchise would be as good as the MCU. Even if it would incorporate the Gremlins or Legally Blond. Think of it as a Wreck It Ralph/Ready Player One thing but instead of namedropping or cameoing the frenchises, you weave their stories into one-another. SVNBob Exactly.

[@ZoanBlade90]

That could lead to some cool concepts, after all, IDW makes it work.

[@00Clank]

Lewis is great at playing the hero. He is SPECTACULAR at playing the villain.

[@tykamen5588]

This comic wasn't a love letter to the fans of the three franchise it's slap to slap to the face with a dull machete, a chainsaw that doesn't even work and knife glove but without the knives

[@HalfTangible]

That reveal at the end O_O Like... yeah, saw it coming (and also saw youtube comments that spoiled it) but HOLY S#@$ that was incredible. Like... that was one of the best moments in the entirety of the storyline segments. Just... that moment when... (spoilers ahead) Still here? Okay. That moment when Mechakara turns around, covered in blood and Seris(i think that's her name?) jumps back in horror? I actually jumped back in my seat with her. It was legit scary. You can see, hear, FEEL the utter disgust and humiliation that Mechakara has for the face he stole and how frustrated and angry he is with how badly this side excursion has gone. How utterly broken his mind is, how bloodthirsty he feels. The acting is just... I mean, yeah, you've been at this for 10 years, there would be improvement, no doubt. But that highlighted it, immensely. I know this is a bit early, but congratulations on ten years, Linkara. It's been a wild ride.

[@SnakeRoadComicsOfficial3677]

The ending should've had Jason get sent back to when he first died when younger Jason was drowning. Jason rescues his younger self and vanishes leaving behind his mask as the timeline is changed.

[@GarthHughes]

Oh my God, that twist at the end! You just keep knocking it out of the park, Lewis!

[@SomeGeekTalking]

I think this proves, more than anything else, how much you've improved as both an actor and a visual storyteller, because that reveal was genuinely frightening. The makeup effects, the lighting, the camera work, all came together for an effectively creepy moment. ...Even if I spent the entire time grinning like an idiot at both who he really is and finding out I was right about him.

[@Headbanger142]

The world is in a near-apocalypse, Deadites everywhere, Ash in a tank....did the finale of Ash Vs Evil Dead have any connection to this comic?

[@thegoblin4948]

Dude i JUST finished watching the first part and i got the notification. Nice timing!

[@DurradonXylles]

This comic sounds like it had some very, _very_ fantastic ideas that had too many cooks spoiling the stew. The idea of the slasher survivors coming together to face off against Freddy and Jason one last time sounds like it could've made for a great comic. The idea of the US gov't attempting to once again weaponize forces beyond their control, and someone like Ash having to bail them out and save the world would've sounded fantastically over-the-top. Hell, _any_ comic featuring the survivors of either killer coming together and trying to find asylum, or simply showing them dealing with the trauma and aftermath, could've made for a great send off or honor to them. Hell, one of the survivors of Freddy becoming evil or even being used as a puppet by him could've made for a great psychological thriller if it was written well enough. The problem is that these should've been separate, focused concepts that _actually got_ fleshed out. This comic is very much half-baked in terms of writing and presentation. Hopefully, if we ever see these three horror icons face off again, it'll either retcon this comic or simply go off in a different direction.

[@ethanharper8346]

"Who are you?" "I am the one they call Mechakara." **Happy upbeat theme music**

[@ChiefMedicPururu]

Blame KZbin.

[@TheScribe1.0]

I knew that was Mechakara. He’s different sure, but I knew it was him. The Plothole must’ve turned him human. All his memories are clashing together with his new emotions, he’s basically going insane. So now Linkara isn’t just dealing with a calculative machine with his face plastered on it, but now that Mechakara is human and insane, he’s now dealing with a psychopath.

[@mattwo7]

17:10 Well Batman the Brave and The Bold (the cartoon) was described by Bat-Mite as a love letter to fans of the Silver Age too. Personally I think he was actually _right_ in that instance. Though... fans of darker and edgier portrayals of Batman may not always agree...

[@ZoanBlade90]

That's part of the problem, we don't always WANT that dark grittiness, because...have you SEEN the news lately? I think the world is dark enough right now.

[@HyruleSwordsman94]

Now he's a real boy!

[@michaelrhett4958]

Linkara, your timing couldn’t be more great. I had my mid terms just after you uploaded part one, you made my day. Thank you for this. I needed that.

[@LaNoLaCola]

Let this unlucky and groovy nightmare continue. And damn Lewis, your acting during the twist was just amazing.

[@BlackKnightOfTheWind]

So considering that every main villain in Atop The Fourth Wall has had at least one comeback by now, is the King Of Worms going to be coming back in the next storyline or is he the only oneshot main villain? And while I understand the reoccurring Rogue's Gallery is an homage to how comics have reoccurring villains, I think it's high time that some new blood be added to the roster.

[@furioussherman7265]

I thought the King of Worms was dead.

[@PrincessAshley972]

Furious Sherman lets face it, death is just something you shrug off in fiction. Pick up any comic book and any character who was supposedly dead will magically come back to life through some deus ex machina BS

[@furioussherman7265]

Unless they're Uncle Ben or Batman's parents.

[@greatness9428]

I'm thinking that, when the Contest of Champions arc returns, we'll get a new main villain. After all, no one in Linkara's rogue's gallery can put together a massive, multiverse spanning contest, except for *maybe* The Entity and even then, The Entity wouldn't want to, and it would have no time to even if it somehow wanted to, which it wouldn't. So, if we have a main villain for the CoC, it'll have to be a new one on scale and motivation alone.

[@furioussherman7265]

The main villain won't be whoever's putting on the Contest, but rather someone in the Contest. It's already been established that the Contest of Champions was created by omnipotent beings with too much time on their hands. If anything, they'll play an anti-heroic role.

[@AzureIV]

Solid acting in that ending scene. Bravo.

[@nathanhuerta4445]

I thought slasher villains were hard to kill, Mechakara just wont stay down. It is cool to see him back, even if it kind of undercuts the movie a bit since it was all basically pointless cause he's back anyway.

[@LunaryonSunborn]

You make it sound like it wasn't obvious at the end of the movie that he wasn't coming back. I've been waiting a long time for this...

[@LordPyro25]

Linkara still saved the spaceship crew and stopped Mechakara’s plans, sure he’s back now but it doesn’t invalidate the whole movie. Another big part of the movie was about Linkara feeling dissatisfied or unsure about his life and eventually becoming secure in it. That’s another big reason why the movie mattered

[@tykamen5588]

Mechakara it's like William Afton he'll always come back

[@melainakiss]

0:23-0:49 was so random. It made me laugh so much. When you said Agent Carter in the middle of the video, I thought you were talking about Peggy Carter for a spilt-second.

[@ingonyama70]

Geat job with the reveal effects!!!!!!!!! (I'm catching up)

[@NeneSword]

Called it.... and I am so glad I was right, because this... this is beautifully horrifying.

[@Yellow13Firestorm]

It's like Linkara, or more accuratly Lewis, said. If you really must kill off a character, only do so when you feel there are no more stories to tell with them. and if you do, make sure it's their crowning moment of awesome. I think we might be seeing that here.

[@jdzencelowcz]

I think the worst sting of these comics, is the fact that all the women are poorly drawn, poorly portrayed, & half naked all the time. Very disrespectful to the characters.

[@johnoneil9188]

The last time Jason felt this ashamed was when he lost that fight to Busta Rhymes.

[@cartooncritic7045]

Wasn't that Michael Meyers that had Busta Rhymes in one of his movies, or did Rhymes just show up to kick ass in two iconic slasher movie franchises and was somehow terrible in both?

[@johnoneil9188]

Yes, it actually was Michael Mayers. I remembered it correctly later but then it was already too late and I had posted the comment. Meyers also fought LL Cool J but won that time.

Goddamn has Lewis become a better writer _and_ actor in these past ten years! The Mechakara twist may have been obvious, but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a perfectly executed one! We're reaching EIchiiro Oda levels of shocking twist here!

Okay, seriously dude. Holy shit, you are an amazing actor, Louis. It is amazing to see how you've grown in your talent over the last 10 years, from cheesy yet charming in your early days to a performance that was genuinely chilling.

[@NoRegs30]

Holy shit It’s Mechakara turned partially human Nice twist Cyborg Mechakara I’ve got to say that I wasn’t expecting it Well done

[@PrincessAshley972]

Not partially, fully. Hence the "I cant get it off!" part. The robo face was simply to show who he is inside and make it more creepy

[@NoRegs30]

Undertaker9711 oh ok So it’s his mind in the flesh body of The Linkara from his timeline Originally I thought it was going to be the version of Linkara from said timeline So I was partially right It is Linkara from that timeline just with Mechakara’s mind inside since he was dead for so long But what I’m thinking is... what if there is a part of that Linkara’s mind traped together with Mechakara’s now that the body itself is alive again

[@tinkerer3399]

I think the ending with Carter signing the warrant is a closed time loop instead because Carter wasnt an agent then. He was the "signature in the wrong place" that stopped Kreugers arrest in the first place.

[@ChaosServant-ll7pr]

[@AkumaKristian]

Woo, nearly caught up now. I got to say though it was pretty obvious, it had to be Mechakara for the 10th Anniversary. The first villain of AT4W (and arguably the most iconic). It even ties in to the Spoony clone thing since Mechakara was the one who resurrected Spoony with the Black Lantern ring. So yeah, good job on using that old bit of continuity as foreshadowing.

[@docette2015]

OOooh, that comic. . .that comic is a masterwork of great ideas and awful execution. I weep for the potential it had. :( And I'm not even a fan of the franchises in question! I just -- love crossovers in general, and this could have been so cool and instead we get creepy incest times and Freddy as usual taking over everything and so much pointless death and uuuuuuugh. (Also, Carter, your signature means SQUAT thanks to you being a TIME TRAVELER and thus NO ONE KNOWING WHO YOU ARE. If anything, you've probably ensured Freddy will go free because "who the hell signed this? This is not an official signature from the police station.") As for your own storyline -- wow. Looks like most of the theories were a touch off-center, eh? It is rather fitting that Mechakara would become that which he hated most -- FLESH. And that effect at the end was AWESOME. Now the only question remains -- what do we DO with him? (Beyond get Erin away from him because this is probably going to go poorly for her otherwise.)

[@Wanderingsage7]

So, we have an inverted Springtrap scenario. Instead of human remnants trapped inside a robotic shell, we have robotic remnants inside a human shell. The visual specification was nicely handled as well; showing that everything down to the bones has been restored, but the robotic bits are beneath _that._ He can’t just strip it off anymore, it’s been reset from a flesh suit to a full body.

[@RandomRex6]

Can we still call him that if he's not a robot anymore?

[@DarkXaven]

We could always call him some variation of Pollo or something. After all Pollo IS his true name. Evil Pollo? NegaPollo? LinkPollo? Pollokara? (Shrugs) I don't know what name would work for this guy. Names were never my specialty. I'm sure someone can come up with something good.

If they stuck with the original Maxi series idea, maybe this sequel story could've worked out better. It has some really fascinating ideas especially regarding Jason, but with it being pushed to only 6 issues, feels like it definitely hurt the narrative

I think Mechakara needs to eat a Snickers bar. Because now he's VERY human and VERY horrified by that revelation. Cruel irony that the Plot Hole turned him into his worst fear.

lewis... your a inspiration to all us

[@tyrant-den884]

THAT was a beautiful reveal. Just gorgeous. Give the man a Webby.

Never doubt the theorists, MechaKara lives. I hyped for next week.

Holy crap, I stopped watching shortly after the initial Missingno arc because of a lack of free time, but have picked this show up again in the last couple months. Holy crap, Linkara's acting has gotten significantly better.

[@AnimatedIdiotGuide]

Honestly I was kinda thinking maybe it would be Mechakara overtaken by The Entity but this works too XD Edit: I’m beyond PUMPED for next week’s 10th anniversary!

Happy Halloween!

Late to the party, but for all Linkara's sympathizing with the short shrift that Freddy's Dead gets in this comic, he seems to forget that the plot of that movie was that Freddy was spreading out of Springwood to at least the entire US, if not the world. Thus, it's pretty in keeping that he'd try to spread to more than just his old town. I mean, he killed all the kids there anyway.

It's one thing to want to invade the dreams of kids outside of Springwood - something else entirely to want to sit in the White House cracking jokes and leading an army of demons.
