Harbinger #6

Post by DawgPhan »

Alright last night I was going through the box of comics that I recently got I noticed that one of the Harbingers is not wearing shoes on the cover of Harbinger 6. I believe this harbinger to be Torgue...Well Torque is supposed to die in that issue. I started to think that this might be some sort of Abbey Road thing. You know Paul was said to be dead and on the cover of Abbey Road he is not wearing shoes. Something like that. I am totally wrong? Does what I said make any sense? Does anyone agree with me? :shock: anyway I thought that I might post that to see what everyone thought about it...

I seem to remember knowing that someone was going to die before that issue came out, and having all the primary characters on the cover helps prevent exact knowledge of whom that would be, so unless it was just a Torque 'thing' - the shoes probably were a giveaway.

Strange...in honor of the 5 year anniversary, I'm listening to Sgt. Pepper ("It was 5 years ago today, Mr. Greg taugh us how to play").

I always just thought that people with tough skin wouldn't need shoes.

You're probably right...good catch.

it is like some sort of strange cosmic thing...wasnt paul the one that is supposed to be buried on the cover of Sgt. Peppers? Beatles and valiant...together again. Maybe we should dig a littler deeper...or maybe we should just let it go...

Page one of Harbinger #5 has a "team photo"...
Torque is mostly covered by a strange "white glow" in the photo.
...but he is wearing shoes.

Also on the cover of harbinger #5 he is shown wearing shoes...to get back on topic and off of the whole beatles song thing...of course that might be exactly what they want us to do and greg could really be one of them trying to get us back on topic and away from the truth.... :shock:

that is what i was gonna mention. i noticed the 'white glow' on Torque as well. i thought at first the artist was trying to portray a gloss shine off the picture, but it's kind of a foreshadowing to his death later.

maybe Torque's shoes were uncomfortable and he took them off.
