Divide by Hero Part 1 cropBrawl in the Family, a Nintendo web comic by Matthew Taranto, recently began a new story arc featuring Link and Ganondorf. It’s a mash-up between the Mario and Zelda series in which Bowser and Ganondorf, each lamenting another defeat at the hands of their respective series’ heroes, agree to swap rivals. Any Zelda fan should appreciate the clever references throughout.

Take the jump and see the comic for yourself!

 

 

Divide by Hero Part 1

One thing I’ve always loved about Brawl in the Family is its nods to many aspects of the Nintendo franchises, and this arc has several. For example, Light arrows are an obvious reference to a weapon used in many final battles with Ganon, but did you notice that Ganondorf’s drinking glass is shaped like an old-school potion cauldron? I have had mixed feelings about Brawl in the Family’s past story arcs, but this one is off to a great start.
