“Great Vargon! The Emperor’s son is dead!”<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh, hell yeah, the F-Zero X<\/em> website!!
\n<\/span><\/strong>You might have gathered that I absolutely love internet history, as evidenced by my foolish attempt to backup every goddamned Bomberman<\/em> site in history. It’s a dumb little obsession, but when you have amazing things like AN OFFICIAL F-ZERO<\/em> WEBCOMIC<\/strong> forever lost to the ages, can you forgive me for being a little torn-up by it?<\/p>\n

Sadly, I can’t say “aw yeah, I checked the website every week, it was so boss!” or “that one story arc where Jody Summer and Octoman were trapped inside a boobie-trapped port-a-potty was just unmissable!” I checked it out once or twice, but I can’t remember any of the events in the comics I read.
\nAll I remember is that the site had a nifty page with bios for all of the game’s racers, complete with that nifty artwork. I think<\/em> a few of those bio pages are still accessible in the Internet Archive, but the comic is long-gone. Sadly, since the fzerox.com domain became a redirect for Nintendo’s main site, you’ll have a tough time trying to find anything relevant if you decide to thumb through the file directory.<\/p>\n

It’s been nearly fifteen years and I’ve never seen anyone suddenly appear with an archive of the comics, so I can safely say we’ll never be seeing them again. What I would pay for a little hindsight…<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
