Adventures of Captain Spirit and Super Wolf

I don't want it to be in the hands of anyone but DONTNOD. But I'd love a LIS 2 continuation where we get to play as Chris and Daniel during their Elementary to high school years aka the Adventures of Captain Spirit and Super Wolf. Ideally this takes place after the Parted Ways ending, but I'd be open to Redemption too.

It could be something like Lost Records where it takes a lot of time contained in 1-5 chapters.

You play as Chris and you can guide Daniel on the path of a hero or a villain

There would be times when you switch in between Chris and Daniel

Could also be like this fan made series.

Their adventures is used as inspiration for Chris' comic

Daniel takes in a lot of shit because of either Sean's escape to Mexico or imprisonment and potentially Daniel's own house arrest, he can either use his powers or fists to stand up to the bullies or take it in stride

The majority of the game is Daniel learning to live without Sean, adapting to life in Beaver's Creek and his growing friendship and eventual relationship with Chris(when they're 16)

Final part of the game is just my ideal. Buuuut. Chris makes a home video. that he says is for his grandparents and says his mom would have loved it. But in reality he's keeping footage of Captain Spirit and Super Wolf in action all because he wants to send it to Sean and to also clear Sean's name as a birthday present for Daniel

The complete lack of a black protagonist in Life is Strange is disappointing

We've got 5 games and not a single game has gotten a single black protagonist.

I do love the series, but even I can see  a problem. A complete lack of black characters in the franchise. 

Found these two great articles that delves into the problem

Link 1

Link 2

None of the main characters are black. None of the secondary characters are black and the only black characters they have are side characters or background characters.

Like there was no reason whatsoever why Rachel, Warren, Kate, Steph, Ryan, Cassidy, Finn, Jacob, Sarah Lee or Chris couldn't have been black. Hell, there is no reason why Max, Chloe or Rachel couldn’t have been black.(although personally I would've loved it if Rachel was Indigenous)

And the black characters we do have is really bad in terms of representation.

Wells, a drunk and crooked  principal.

Hayden, a stoner and member of the Vortex Club

Drew North, a bully jock who got in the drug trade

Charlotte, a likable character, but who's anger is consuming her and blaming others around her, tho I understand where she is coming from, but her characterization tends to be reminiscent of the unfortunate angry black woman stereotype. And just so happens to own a pot shop...

Ms Grant, Mikey, Penny, and Joey the Nurse seem to be the only positive black characters in the series.

And we still have not gotten a single black protagonist in the franchise.

I find it weird that we seemingly have little good black representation that isn't just associated with drugs.

Like I’m not trying to say DONTNOD, D9 or Square Enix are racist or anything, but I’m saying they need to do better when it comes to representation. 

We were robbed of a black main character for Life Is Strange and are instead getting a cash grab sequel with Max who might as well be a completely new character seeing as how they’re throwing away everything that Max experienced and learned and everything we loved from LIS 1 to make it.

But considering how the fandom treated Sean and Daniel and their story, I can only imagine the disgusting hate a black protagonist would get in an extremely white franchise.

Life Is Strange comics needs more than just one ending to base their comics on

Glad Alex and Steph are getting a comic series. But really? You're gonna skip over LIS 2 like that? Where's the comic series that continues the Parting Ways ending? Could follow Daniel and Chris in Beaver's Creek and Sean with Lyla, Finn and Cassidy in in Puerto Lobos. But no, god forbid LIS 2 gets content 🙄😑

Also WHY only do Alex and Steph on the road? Why not Alex and Ryan in Haven?

This is the problem I have with the LIS comics. They pick and choose what endings to make and ignore everything else. It's frustrating and disappointing that they don't make a comic FOR EVERY ENDING. A comic of Max dealing with Chloe's death along with Kate, Warren, Victoria and more characters would be empowering. Hell I even MADE a idea for a hypothetical Save The Bay comic and we could've had it all!

There should be an ending dealing with Max's grief and moving on. There should at least be a comic for Parting Ways, Redemption and Blood Brothers and should choose Alex and Ryan in Haven ending.

What's the point of a comic based on a "choice" based game if it ignores the other choices?

I want a LIS game that unites Max, Chloe, Sean, Daniel(with also Finn, Cassidy, Lyla and Chris) Alex, Steph and Ryan. We see them dealing with a mystery and such, but we also get to see them be gay and chill.

I replayed the LIS series. I do love the series, but even I can see  a problem. A complete lack of black characters in the franchise.
