Happy 9th anniversary, Exion!

It’s nearly February 24, 2020 — and nine years ago, our community was born! Of course, we only recently found our footing as Exion; over the years, we went through many different names and iterations. If you’re a new reader and want to learn about some of our history, you’ve come to the right place! In the spirit of our ninth anniversary, I am going to outline our community and its past.

If you aren’t ready to read a massive wall of text, then I’ll leave you with this: thanks for sticking around for nine years. Things have been picking up for us, and I hope to see our community continue to grow and thrive. You, as viewers, are the most important part of our work, and I am very thankful for that!

Cloud’s Forum Adventures – Fan-Made Episodes

Cloud’s Forum Adventures (often shortened to CFA) was an awful comic series I worked on from 2012 to 2015. You’ll see what I mean just by reading one episode: its characters are dull, its plot is cliche, and its visuals are awkward and uninteresting.

A full history of Cloud’s Forum Adventures “predicting” Kirby games

It’s no secret that I’m not particularly proud of Cloud’s Forum Adventures. Not only does it look childish (which makes sense, given that I was thirteen years old when I made it), but its story is very difficult to follow and often makes zero sense. And despite being a clear ripoff of the Kirby franchise, CFA actually has some similarities to its plot… or should I say, the Kirby series has similarities to CFA’s plot.

That’s right: there are many happenings in CFA that are extremely similar to events in Kirby: Planet Robobot and Kirby Star Allies. Except the CFA episodes were actually released first! Of course, this is most certainly a coincidence, but today, we’re going to compare their plot elements and see what looks the same. Spoilers ahead!

Cloud’s Forum Adventures – Extra Episodes & Unreleased Content

Throughout its lifespan, only four seasons of Cloud’s Forum Adventures were ever truly completed. The others either ended on cliffhangers or were canceled halfway through. I tried rebooting the series many, many times, and they often only lasted for an episode or two. That brings us to this archive: panels that were intended to form a full season that was never completed!

Cloud’s Forum Adventures – Season 6B (Nightmare Legion Saga)

Cloud’s Forum Adventures (often shortened to CFA) was an awful comic series I worked on from 2012 to 2015. You’ll see what I mean just by reading one episode: its characters are dull, its plot is cliche, and its visuals are awkward and uninteresting. But this saga is arguably the one and only exception!
