Star Fox (comics): Difference between revisions

A monthly ''[[Star Fox]]'' comic strip, illustrated by Benimaru Itoh, was printed in issues 45 to 55 of ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' in 1993. It was a sort of background covering of events in the original Star Fox, with some exclusive characters not currently seen in any of the games to date. One such character was Fara Phoenix, a vixen who becomes the fifth member of Star Fox after they saved her from Venomian forces. The story followed the Star Fox team as they went from outlaws on Papetoon, to an elite Arwing fighter squadron. Fox, Falco, and Andross were the only 3 characters whose backgrounds were fully explained in the story.

 

* [[Air Vent Passageway]]: Inside Andross' base, Slippy and Peppy manage to break into Venom's control center via a vent.

* [[Almost-Dead Guy]]: As the crippled freighter ship crashes, a lizard stumbles out of the smoking wreck. He cryptically says, "Beware the Stingrays...!" before collapsing.

* [[And There Was Much Rejoicing]]

* [[Angels Pose]]: Just look at the header pic.

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: Andross warns General Pepper that McCloud is trying his patience. "He has destroyed my Cornerian Army, wiped out my space defenses, and kidnapped [[Overly Narrow Superlative|my favorite android pig]], Herbert."

* [[Divided We Fall]]: The leaders of Corneria were too scared of Andross, and Fox and his friends were denounced for inciting a rebellion. They fled Corneria and lived as outlaws on Papetoon.

* [[Dissonant Serenity]]: Even with her arwing on fire, Fara acts as if everything is peachy keen.

* [[Don't Sneak Up On Me Like That]]: General Pepper's lieutenant bursts into his room to alert that Fox has hijacked an Arwing; Pepper is so surprised that he [[Spit Take|spills his coffee]].

* [[Driven by Envy]]: Falco chafes at Fox's leadership. Hasn't he gotten enough glory?

* [[Glowing Eyes of Doom]]: Fox gets these whenever he gets ''really'' pissed.

* [[Hero Insurance]]: General Pepper's lieutenant reports the team's success on Venom. Pepper marvels that he was "going to discharge the lot of them," but now he predicts parades and medals.

* [[Hot-Blooded]]: Fox, particularly where Andross is involved.

* [[Hover Board|Hoverbike]]: Fox and the rest of the Star Fox team attack a freighter in the opening, using speederbikes of some sort.
