Gavla's Comics: The End

[Makuta Luroka]

Ah, so that's what MG did. So he saved what he despised in order to give the universe and life a fighting chance?That's a bit... noble of him, I guess. Also, creepy background Judgement is creepy.

Creepy background judgement is indeed creepy.

[Logan Tec]

My Theory The universe chose a new death and the void changed because of that?

[flynn58]

What in Artahka's name have I missed?! Life entered the void, as did Goggles Gav, and the three fought, but Life collapsed reality, then Death got judged?

 

Isn't this place a forum for a children's toy? What's with this existential madness?

[Gavla]

I don't like to make kiddie stuff, I need to make stuff that's serious. That has a plot with twists and things to get the reader's mind thinking.

Awoken Among The Shards

 

There is only one joy in my job as a comic maker. Making the readers think and question things.

[Sir Ptolemic Of Zyglak]

Hmmm...I'm wondering if this place is opconsidered a universe or part of the Void...or something even bigger than the Void itself...

[Hitoshura]

Now that's just getting creepy. Robot stalkers...

And that's why I read your comics.

[Cyrix]

And that's why these comics are great: they stimulate the mind rather than letting it remain passive. Keep it up, man.Also, I vaguely remember at some point (back when AVID was running) that you said you weren't particularly fond of Old Gav, and that this was one of the motivations to begin AVID in the first place. Makes me wonder why he's the only one left to wander the Void. If it is really the Void at all anymore.

The Wanderer Of The Eternal Sands

[Hitoshura]

That must be really boring for him, I wonder what's going to happen next. Of course, I have to wait, but yeah.

Darkness In The Distance

[Makuta of Time]

What in the world is that black orb.

[Hitoshura]

A portal, maybe? Or some weird experiment result.

Comic-

 

Key Of Sands

[Hitoshura]

That was...strange, why did Life just do that?

[Makuta of Time]

The question is, why didn't Life stop Gav?

[Hitoshura]

Well, Life sent him back to the desert, which he has no known way to get out so it's basically the same as stopping him.

[Makuta of Time]

Well it actually looks the Void turned into a desert.

[Hitoshura]

But we know that the Void has all the universes in it, and maybe Gav got sent to a desert one. Don't know. Just guessing.

[Gavla]

..You guys realize that's a flashback, right?

 

"Key Of Sands" should be a clue.

[Sir Ptolemic Of Zyglak]

Well, he's still in the "void", since that piece of the staff fell there, whereas the other fell into space. What happened to it know is...unknown. Possibly amongst the sands though, maybe wit the monitor.

[Sycron]

He might have to find the pieces, put them together, and fix everything...

[Soran]

Personally, here is my understanding of this specific comic.

 

Gavla is walking through an endless desert in what looks like another void or the same void, we do not know yet but we'll figure it out as the comics go along, Gavla likes our questions. While Gavla is walking through the desert he encounters part of a stick which he recognizes as part of Xolapa's staff (if it had a specific name I forgot what it was). He immediately goes into a flashback type state where the audience is clarified that it was part of the staff by observing past comic events. The staff's power source/orb thing (the top part) was destroyed which I assume makes the staff's powers disappear. Afterward in the next panel it shows Gavla looking up in a way that is stereotypically used to show that a person is thinking about something. The next panel clarifies that when he suddenly looks back at the broken piece of the staff. He puts the staff back in whatever compartment Matoran and Toa use after 2006 where their weapons magically disappear (still not explained). Then he walks off.

 

So there remains a few questions.

 

Why was Gavla teleported to the Endless Desert and what purpose did that serve? (This may have been explained in the past few comics, but I got confused).

 

Why were the pieces of the staff teleported to the Endless Desert along with Gavla, and why is it hinted that the staff may be the key to something involving this desert if the staff was destroyed. Will he rebuild it somehow?

 

Where do these Matoran/Toa put their weapons/items when they go behind their back? (The world may never know...) (Seriously if anyone knows this tell me.)

 

Nice work on the comic as usual Gavla, and keep up the great work.

1) The staff's name is Mr. Stick. This was clarified by "Life"(then simply called "New Gav") to Goggles upon meeting him for the first time(this was before EB). Mr. Stick goes by no other name.

 

2) I do not have much of an answer for your first question.

 

3) I know about as much for the second question as I do for the first.

 

4) In response to the third question, a suva: That small gear on the backs of matoran and toa acts as a portal. The same goes for Link in the The Legend of Zelda series of videogames:

I believe that it was alluded to that the ED is the post-destruction Void. I can't pull up the specific comic, but it showed the Void "fading into" the ED. It seems as though Gavla was protected from the destruction of the rest of the Void by being crystallized by MG-Goggles (MGoggles?). Because everything was destroyed, all that's left is a lifeless, dark desert, as opposed to the vibrant forest it once was.

 

I'm not sure why the pieces of the staff are in the ED as well, or what their significance is. As you said, they're probably a key to something or other, maybe something to do with the black-hole-thing we saw earlier. Maybe because it's what destroyed the Void?

 

And the staff piece went into Gavla's Hammerspace or something, I don't know. XD

[Gavla]

The Void can not move. It can die, as established. It just can't move. It's like a living rock.

Creator's Guilt

 

There are things never meant to be understood in these comics. Things I purposely leave vague. I love to have readers engage in thought and discussions. Your theories make this job wonderful.

 

Sometimes your theories are better compared to the actual truth of the subject.

 

Also, Gavla/Gavilan has pockets.

[Katoris]

A beautiful void for dessert lovers I'm sure.

[Hitoshura]

"What have I go in my pocket?"Anyway, that picture if Death just creeped me out, for some reason.

[Makuta of Time]

That pic of Death is creepy. I winder if he's turning into the next death?

[Sir Ptolemic Of Zyglak]

Fix the stick, fix the void. But to do so become Death himself? That's my theory at least

[Gavla]

You guys really like Mr. Stick.

Full Circle

[Sir Ptolemic Of Zyglak]

Hmmmmm....so my theory was partially right! And hey, some characters ya just gotta STICK with! Get it? Lame pun? Okay...I'll take a mangosteen to the...unmentionables now...

[Hitoshura]

Well, that was disturbing with Death just appearing and what happened to Gav in the last few panels.

[Makuta of Time]

I knew it! Gav does become the next death.

[Toa Chuck]

This doesn't seem to be cage gavla... perhaps his confusion is due to the three becoming one...

Or maybe this plot line is just escaping my grasp. I dunno.

[The Lonesome Wanderer]

The plot that I have cought up on all translates to

 

 

I really want to see if the Full Circle is Gav becoming Death, like I expect.

[Gavla]

Can't really call him Cage Gavla anymore, since he lacks MG in his head.

 

Kinda silly how this one is always fated with some other being. Holding MG in his mind, filling in the roll of Death.

 

Essentially all Gavlas are meant to take on double rolls. ICC Gav keeps the peace. He can also destroy said peace in a single moment.

Painful Collection

 

Also, someone stated that I dislike this Gavla. That's very true!

 

He is my first character made, and the one I despise the most. So naturally I gave him the worst fate.

[Hitoshura]

It really creeps me out with the "lack" of eye, and how the Deaths specifically don't have them.

[Makuta of Time]

I did knew it, he does become the next death. And it also creeps me out how he doesn't have eyes.

[Sir Ptolemic Of Zyglak]

I think death with no eyes is symbolic, I've always drawn (and seen pictures of) Death or the reaper with no eyes. I see it as a way of saying that by not physically "seeing", he sees and experiences everything, from love to pain. Just putting that out there
