I saw people predicting that it was Nicole, that it was Captain Prime (I guessed that one), Zeke or Alex. But only two people guessed Drath’zul. So credit to them.
Unless of course Tentacle girl or Starry Mysterio is Nicole.
Damn. That’s the problem with the format, it’s so easy to forget what happened in previous arcs when you’re bounce between Analog and D-Pad, to Starcaster, to the RPG, to the slice-of-real-life stuff.
Obviously I could be way on the mark but this feels a lot like “They’ve proven themselves to be worthy heroes so let’s approach them to see if they’ll join our team” but the team may be more shadowy and immoral than the heroes prefer.
Why not both, Nicole and Drath´zul? After all, that really sounds like a corny villain name a gamer would pick, apostrophe and unneccesarily complex consonant composition and all that stuff …
Well, if the figure ahead of them and the figure behind them are the same person, wouldn’t it be the person who agreed to consult with Drath’zul (“the remorseless one”)? I kinda guessed based on the circular face thingy (like an “O”) that this was Obliteron.
It seems like the person in the panel referenced here is referencing someone named “Drath’zul”, not that person themselves. Is the thing they are looking at an illusion?

So you found a guy that transforms into some Lovecraftian horror, and just assume he’s a villain? Not cool, guys. He clearly don’t want to fight: Recruiter, maybe.
Also, do Ethan know this guy? We reacts faster than Lucas, seems less shocked.
There is a villain we’ve heard of once from Captain Prime named Dr Eldritch, who had planted a “tentacle bomb” in the city, so it’s not an out of pocket assumption.

Okay, not Captain Prime! In fact it looks like nothing any of us predicted at all!

Oh, enter the “global threat” league … I still hope Tentaculady isn´t Nicole.
If they’re vigilantes or whatever, they need to rethink their name. The Remorseless isn’t the *best* of names for public image. I do get that “We are the people who stop those without remorse” is a bit too long, but I’m still leaning towards villains here.
Besides, I don’t think two video game themed people fits into a group with spooky cloak guy and tentacle person (presumably Drath’Zul but perhaps not).

Man, what’s Lucas’ range? It seems he can summon those arrows at some great distance.

Who is Drath’zul?
I think from this panel https://cad-comic.com/comic/waking-up-p02/

Nicely matching chapter titles for them to return.

Captain Tentacle, the porn fighter.
“I’ve seen enough hentai to know where this is going”
Captain Hentaicle
“Do not be afraid. You two are the big winner for the Publisher Gaming House sweepstakes!” Is 100% what they were going to say. Right?
Ok, I had forgotten this group indeed
Welcome to his new Villain… The Stage 4 Klinger!
Calling it now, the person with the tentacles is Nicole.
The person in the mask is also Nicole.
I’ll just repeat my comments from four months ago: “Waking Up, P02”

Many are assuming facts not in evidence.
This is clearly a BatMan simile and he wants our favorite heroes to join his secret crime fighting group.
Either way Analog and D-Pad are fu. . .
