You've an expansion now, Hersh. Revel in your success.

Hersh 2 is going to blow minds.

And budgets.

Not enough slots.

No, nothing can top the original.

To each their own...

Congratulations, Hersh. You're not on your own anymore.

Hooray!

You have a sequel! Or maybe you could think of it as a spin-off series, a different format remake. A homage, even...

PSEUDOPOD. He's you, but not you. He's your spin-off, your sequel...

Whoa, whoa -- There's only one Hershel. Uno. Üks.

This is a very self-limiting viewpoint. You're leaving lots of potential on the table.

My remake. A different take on the same theme.

Now a gritty revisionist interpretation. Piss-coloured filters, moody bass. Reaching a totally different audience.

My knock-off. Nothing compares to the original.

Come on, Hersh. You're saying Iron Petal II wasn't awesome? Sequels mean more lore, the mystique -- even if they're bad they make the original look way cooler in comparison!

Sometimes there's an installment so bad that the entire franchise has to be wiped from the collective consciousness...

But... he's just a brainless husk who can't talk.

And? He's your developmentally challenged sequel. Artsier, more experimental -- inclusive! People love that type of thing.

Then why do I still feel alone?

That's a question to ask yourself when you're alone at night. Right now we're talking about business.
