Line 7:
'''''Marauder Shields''''' is a ''[[Mass Effect]]'' brief [[Webcomic of the Game|webcomic]] hosted on [[Deviant ART]] by user [http://koobismo.deviantart.com/gallery/ koobismo] starring and centered on the eponymous "Marauder Shields" a [[Memetic Mutation|Memetic]] and [[Fanon]]ical [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] from ''[[Mass Effect 3]]'' that literally originated as "a random [[Mook|marauder]]<ref>Turian Husk</ref> that appears apparently from thin air during the climax of ''[[Mass Effect 3]].''
 
The comics follow Shields and preexisting [[Mass Effect/Characters|''Mass Effect'' Characterscharacters]] during the final hours of the ''[[Mass Effect]]'' trilogy, as the final battle against the [[Big Bad|Reapers]] rages across Earth and the Solar System. While the comics themselves are rather episodic, and focus on different characters every so often, there is a loose story arc present throughout the series, with every character contributing, knowingly or otherwise, to Shields's quest to save Commander Shepard from the [[Base Breaker|Controversial]] [[Ending Aversion|Endings]] of ''[[Mass Effect 3]]''.
 
The series can be found on [http://koobismo.deviantart.com/gallery/ koobismo's deviant art gallery], and has updated semiregularly since ituntil began2014.

Line 17:
* [[Colonel Badass]]: definitely the now mutilated Commander Bailey.
* [[Scars Are Forever]]: Bailey's eye.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: half the cast, especially when compared with Mass Effect 3.
* [[Watching Troy Burn]]: couple of panels show the burning London with giant Reapers circling above it.
* [[The Main Characters Do Everything]]: averted to an epic scale. The main characters are unavailable, so their crew members have to step up to the plate and save Earth.
Line 24:
* [[True Companions]]: all of Normandy's crew and the Normandy (EDI) herself. No one abandons Shepard, they all fight for him/her and for each other.
* [[Shout-Out]]:
** In Episodes #10 ("Spectres") & #13 ("The Queen"), Commander Bailey can be seen sporting a sexy eye-patch, resembling the one worn by one [[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Saul Tigh]], who was played by the same actor as Bailey (Michael Hogan).
** In #13 ("The Queen"), one [[Wing Commander/Characters|Christopher Blair]] can be seen discussing the Reaper attack taking place in Episode #12 ("Breaking Point").
** In #16 ("Brothers Till The End"), James tells Javik the reason he became [[The Nicknamer]] was because he once called his girlfriend [[Chuck|Sarah]] when her real name was Yvonne.<ref>reference Yvonne Strahovski, who played Sarah Walker on ''[[Chuck]]'' and Miranda Lawson in ''Mass Effect 2'' and ''3''</ref>
