OK, finally caught up with your updates!
Great job, I'm enjoying this a lot, the dialogue between Ztranx and Relik makes it all quite enjoyable. I've seen/read/watched quite a lot of "big reveals" in my lifetime, so it's nice to get a little twist on them once in a while.
I'm wondering what this will all lead up to eventually... from what I've seen so far, this plays like one of those scenes which would usually be at the very end of an arc. So placing this so soon in Relik's webcomic history must make some sort of ultimate sense, right? If I were to speculate, I'd suggest this scene be NOT followed by crime-fighting as usual, but by another twist. Like throwing Relik on the other end of the universe and make him rediscover what makes him... human... or not.
That's also where I'd see the major difference to Energize... he was established as being much more rooted in his human life. While Brad might believe to be human (and having been human for all his life), we don't see much of that. It doesn't shake me as much to find out that in fact he isn't. Because in comics, what's really the difference between being human and being only humanoid?
Anyway... whatever happens, I'm certainly going to continue enjoying the comic.
Haven't said anything about the art yet, but Dan knows I've loved it from the start and that it's constantly improving, so there.
