Комикс «Война!» — это комикс, выпущенный с 9 декабря до 15 декабря 2009, вместе с обновлением ВОЙНА!. В комиксе присутствуют Администратор и Мисс Полинг, пытающиеся разрушить дружбу красного подрывника и синего солдата.

Содержание

The story begins with the Administrator watching the RED's and BLU fight on various maps, when she noticed a RED Spy sneaking into the BLU Base (referencing the main storyline of the Meet the Spy short). She then draws attention to Miss Pauling standing nervously behind her. Miss Paling then explains that while running a background check on the BLU Soldier and RED Demoman, they discover the 2 have become friend after meeting at a Projectile Weapons Expo. This angers the Administrator as it is a betrayal of their trust, but then enquires as to what friends actually do when unsure as to how that threatens them. When Miss Pauling tells her that friends sometimes talk, this worries the Administrator, as she states the two mercenaries could talk about work and discover they are both working for the same person.

The Administrator decides to take action. She instructs Miss Pauling to call Saxton Hale, and have him develop custom weapons for her to use as bait for the mercenaries. The comic then cuts to Saxton Hale, preparing to jump out of an airplane. The pilot says not to jump, and that they're not at a high enough altitude. Saxton says he's going to jump anyway. The pilot says he could easily climb to a higher altitude, but Saxton jumps stating that "There's probably no time!". He crash lands into his office through a window, where he is met by his employees, Mr. Bidwell and Mr. Reddy. While eating his breakfast steak, Saxton discusses company matters with his associates. Mr. Reddy informs him that TF Industries is on the phone for him. He quickly receives the phone thinking it is the Administrator, whom he addresses as 'Helen'. The person on the other end is revealed to be Miss Pauling calling about the weapons. Saxton states that he has some incriminating evidence that he could use some more finger prints on, and Miss Pauling accepts these.

The comic then cuts to the Demoman on his day off. He is at home preparing tea for his mother, who is hassling him about getting more jobs as he only has three. While the Demoman retorts this saying he earned $5,000,000 the previous year, his mother scoffs at for spending rather than saving. They are then interrupted by a knock at the door. The Demoman answers and is greeted by Miss Pauling. The Demoman questions why she’s there and she states that the Administrator wants him to kill his best friend. After being tempted by some weapons, he is still state he can't do it. Miss Pauling leaves the weapons regardless, and tells him that the Soldier accepted the offer from his employers.

For the final chapter, the comic cuts to a messenger being sent to the Soldiers apartment. After avoiding being shot twice by and Shotgun and having his neck snapped, the messenger is allowed inside. The Soldier then questions who the man is while pointing a Shotgun at him and taking cover behind and upturned table. The messenger then opens his trench coat to reveal a TV screen strapped to his body. On screen is the Administrator, who addresses the Soldier. She gives him 2 choices: Her associates drive him to the nearest Gravel Pit where they kill him for gross insubordination, or he kill the Demoman. He rejects both offers stating that him he is asked to kill his friend again he will stick his boot so far up the Administrators ass it will be on the news. The Administrator questions the friendship, and then plays a video of an image of the Demoman with a robotic voice over saying that the Soldier is a bad friend. The Soldier, while put off by this, again states he can't do it as the two have formed a bond. The video plays on, this time with the robot voice stating that the Soldier isn't in fact a real Soldier. This enrages the Soldier, who states that he accepts the offer. The Administrator is pleased by this and states that he will be receiving new weapons shortly.

Факты

Страница 1

• A TV screen on the left hand side of the page shows a dead BLU Scout at the top of the stairwell entrance to the Intelligence room at 2Fort. This is reference to the Meet the Spy video short, in which a RED Spy infiltrates the BLU base disguised as a Scout.
• Two screens down from that shows a BLU Soldier, Heavy, Spy (though only his shoulder can be seen) and Scout standing in the Intelligence room of the BLU base. This is a again a reference to the Meet the Spy. This shot however does not fit into the timeline, as the 4 would only arrive in the Intelligence room after the Administrtor announces the Spy's presence on Page 2.
• There is a small screen showing a pumpkin bomb to the left of the speech bubble saying "RED Team! Defend our control point!".

Страница 2

• The Administrator calling out "Alert! A RED Spy is in the base!" is also a reference to the intro of the Meet the Spy video. However, in the actual video the Administrator says "Intruder alert! RED Spy is in the base!". There is also a goof in regards to this, as the Administrator says to 'Attend to the briefcase!' shortly after. This does not happen in the comic as the Administrator is talking to Miss Pauling.
• Фотография Зефанайе Манна и его компании на пульте управления.

Страница 3

• The pose the Demoman is standing in while crying at the Eye Museum is same pose he stands in on the Gunboats announcement page, but from the opposite side.
• У солдата и подрывника на футболках написано 'Gravel Pits of America Cenic Bus Tour' на главном фото справа.
• Куча гравия под краном не текстурирована.
• У подрывника отсутствует эмблема на плече.

Страница 5

• The Administrators chair changes between Page 1 and Page 5.
• The control panel the Administrator is sitting at loses several dial guages from the top of the panel to the bottom. It should be noted however, that given the direction Missing Pauling is facing and the lack of chair obscuring the Administrators back, that they are facing an entirely different control panel.

Страница 8

• У Сакстона Хейла отсутствует цвет волос, когда он катиться через окно.

Страница 10

• The nobs on the side of the phone disappear in the bottom left panel.
• Рубашка с галстуком Мистера Редди меняются с белых на красные между Страницей 8 и Страницей 10.

Страница 15

• The Demoman receives an additional 3 crates to the one the Eyelander came in, totaling 4. However, the Demoman only received 3 unlockables for the update, so it could be speculated the fouth crate could hold the Gunboats.

Страница 16

• The name on the Soldier's door is Jane Doe, a militiary term used for an unamed deceased person. It should be noted though that Jane Doe referes to a female person, where as John Doe refers to a male.

Страница 17

• Дыры от пуль в двери исчезаю на 16 странице.

Страница 18

• На тарелках видна эмблема Team Fortress 2.
