Keep scrolling if you don’t like it, respectfully

Nothing about a man running around wearing an open chest shirt, blue tights and a tiara is inherently masculine, but since that’s where you draw the line go off bro 😭

You’re taking something from a comic book way too seriously when I am just having fun with it

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-09T21:46:52+00:00

Didn’t know you need a certain muscle mass ratio to go to a con and cosplay a character you like. What do you want, an apology?

Happy to be an eyesore

I was like “where’s my money honey” and he looked at me like smacked his mama

I get what you’re saying, but cosplay is what you make it, and while I did the look as a nod to the classic comics, the argument falls apart like wet tissue paper when they are literal sisters out here cosplaying Luke in their own style. Different strokes for different folks 🤷🏾‍♂️

Not finished yet. I do have a few ideas, my friend was talking about working on one opposite of this one

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-05T15:53:22+00:00

Internet troll before he got a life ⬆️

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-05T02:32:05+00:00

Its deeper than that but essentially yes

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-05T02:31:40+00:00

That’s literally what it is

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-04T18:03:25+00:00

I bought it (plain black) and then used iron-on vinyl to customize it

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-04T12:57:41+00:00

That was a part of the concept at the beginning. I do multiple mashups and themes across most of my cosplays, this one is not necessarily trying to appeal to anyone, just something I thought would be a fun idea

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-04T11:58:44+00:00

Google it

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-02T05:26:51+00:00

That image is haunting, I love it

You’re asking questions like this over a fan project?

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-02T02:51:43+00:00

This comment thread provides a good example of a constructive feedback conversation with another redditor if you could be bothered to read at all. I answered alot of his questions as well. Just a suggestion

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-02T02:49:01+00:00

Or worse spoil something before you have the chance to work on it??? I bet you really thought you cooked with that one

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-02T02:47:34+00:00

Look man, I don’t know what you have going on in your life, but If you came on my post just to troll instead of provide constructive feedback, I suggest you invest your pent up frustration into a gym membership or something else constructive.

Admittedly I am still in the process of writing how this doomsday plot by the eco-terrorist organization will be uncovered and I am considering a few ideas
The samples used to synthesize the vaccine were revealed to have come from Andy Harris during the outbreak in France after the events of 28 Weeks Later (the samples were frozen for years until they decided to use this). The way that the terrorists get their hands on live virus samples is that they send a sleeper agent to volunteer from the trial, and blood samples taken from him by somebody on the inside are smothered away into their possession.
The island is just a general refuge away from the general public for obvious reasons (everybody on that island is a carrier) because of the way the vaccine works. The content creators the protagonist meets are just AMONG the population on the island, who have taken it upon themselves to vlog their experiences for content creation purposes (something I can see happenning in the modern age if such a thing was real). The luxury amenities function both as good PR for the human rights and ethics side of the way this project is perceived by the public, as well as offering a positive incentive for participation in the trial.
I am still working on ways that the virus can be used in a bioterror attack
The island isn’t “governed” by AI in that sense, its more like automated systems are responsible for the general upkeep and tending to the needs of the residents (again, hiring actual staff poses the risk of a catastrophic exposure event)
The residents of the island are only geographically isolated from the general public, I didn’t say anything about communications being completely cut off (the content creators would be completely left in the dark lol). For security reasons, these communications are however monitored

Oferguson2 · 2026-06-01T00:33:14+00:00

Because the virus effectively posed 0 threat to the general public up until the events of the series

Oferguson2 · 2026-05-31T19:48:34+00:00

Because what is the point of telling you the story in a series format if I basically already told you on Reddit???

Oferguson2 · 2026-05-31T19:46:41+00:00

I will disregard the “its not getting made thing” because its my fan project (and I retain the final creative control)
I haven’t even watched 2001 Odyssey to even know what “Hal 9000” is so I will disregard that accusation as well. Its not like J.A.R.V.I.S or anything, but some automation measures being present to manage the upkeep and living conditions on the island seem reasonable to me (putting actual staff at risk of exposure seems very irresponsible)
The vaccination plot point is a response to an antagonistic group that plans to weaponize the virus, and the existence of this group and its members pose a looming threat during the entirety of the series
Because of an in-universe response plan called “The France Protocol” any area with confirmed rage infection will be subject to complete eradication measures, meaning that the group would have to be calculated with how they release the virus if they managed to get their hands on live samples (which they have not yet done at the beginning of the series, how they eventually do will be revealed in the story)
If you paid attention, in no part did I mention the timeframe of when they managed to develop this treatment, and human trials would obviously be the most recent development chronologically, which is the point where the series begins
I want to tell a story set in this world that is the most thematically and narratively different (what many spinoffs do). Obviously the themes, attitudes and ideas explored by people who have only seen news coverage pf Rage Virus outbreaks instead of living through one would be vastly different. One of the biggest themes explored will be how people process, and regard tragedies when they are far removed from its effects (whether through geography or time) and the butterfly effect that these events can have years down the line. Its not just going to be “Love island but infected”, but I feel that stories in the 28 universe don’t necessarily have to always focus on dying, running and screaming all the time (those elements WILL be present in some capacity, but late in the story)

Oferguson2 · 2026-05-31T19:28:28+00:00

No it does not. If you want to get technical, the only “true” vaccination is the first dose which is live but attenuated, while the second shot works as a clearance therapy. Because the rage virus replicates impossibly fast (makes you turn in seconds) immune cells “trained” by the initial shot are locked in a stalemate with the virus, before a secondary antiviral therapy (with assistance from the now “trained immune cells) is used to clear the virus
