* HeroLookingForGroup: The introductory panels are about Hero proclaiming himself the one to "vanquish the evil war horde (and its leader Galgarion) but acknowledging he can't do it alone. Consequently, he spends the next few chapters collecting a RagTagBandOfMisfits comprised of a thief, a harlot, and an outlaw. A science pirate, two fuzzy {{Team Pet}}s, and a dance battler join later on.

As for Ian, his animation career has flourished. Shortly after leaving ''RPG World'', he co-produced animated shorts called ''[=nockFORCE=]'' with Jim Gisriel - they can be viewed on their Youtube channel [[https://www.youtube.com/user/nockFORCE here]]. He later parlayed that into being a hired animator for shows such as ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' and ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' (even doing voicework, like for ''WebAnimation/BravestWarriors''). He moved on to become creative director for ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' (where the show's protagonist has Hero action figure) before eventually leaving to work on his own series ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes.''
