I’m taking full credit for Issue Seven being made, go read it, it’s good This is from 12/20/2024, happy for you fellas and the ending is really well done, I’m not gonna make a video for it, not much else to say. It ended the story with REALLY good closure to the main content. Best comparison is the ending of Regular Show
Villain: "My robots are going to suck out all of your blood and leave your lifeless, dry corpses to go on and spread all over the world." Hero: "No, you can't!" Villain: "Hahaha! Why so, you naive creature?" Hero: "Because I drank too much whiskey, and I now have alcohol instead of my blood so your robots get poisoned by it and explode!"
You forgot to mention how the medic scooped up blood from the ground with his own underwear to save the team after they almost died from the blood sucking robots.
Or how the Medic literally made a deal with the literal Devil decades ago, presumably for extended life. And renewed it in the comic for a return to life after he had been shot dead and 50 more years or life, tricking the Devil on a technicality in the soul contract, after Medic had used his stint with the Team Fortress Classic BLU team to steal the old geezers' souls and graft them onto his own.
TF2's lore is one of those situations where "it is stupid" overlaps almost perfectly with "it is awesome" as the actual canonical reason for anything and everything happening, such that its most serious moments are still slightly ridiculous, and its most ridiculous moments are still slightly serious.
help this is so true, i've seen some where its too serious and angsty, and some where its also far too absurd, either one (including the comic) drive me nuts, edit: (in a good way). I don't hate fanfiction, I consume them (albeit rarely) they're silly and some are genuinely like well written and poetic. I think are a crucial way in keeping fandoms and media alive.
God, in all of the comic's insanity for what was the craziest worldbuilding to a hero shooter, the funniest moment for me will be when the eagle apart of the 1822 eagle scourge (yes that's what it was called) that took grey mann as a child, replying "what is happening" will be one of the funniest comic panels in history
Actually- a suggested reason as to why the teams can often respawn is cause the medic somehow grafted and stitched everyone’s souls together, meaning that none of them can go to hell or die since they can’t have ALL of their souls go at once
Pretty sure when the Administrator hired Dell Connagher the BLu Engineer in the comic _Loose Canon_ and he received his grandfather Radigan Connagher's notes, the Admin had Dell build the Respawn, based on Radigan's life extender machines, except the Respawn creates new bodies and stuffs the souls and memories into the new bodies. Medic's resurrection circuit he built in Rottenburg during the Robot War is an extension of both his own MeidGun technology that repairs damaged bodies and the Respawn, but skips the "new body" stage and straight-up sticks the dead bits back together and reanimates them, while his Ghostbusters-style "soul trap" prevents the soul from leaving so it can be stuffed back into the body. And the Medic didn't steal the souls of the TF2 team. He stole the souls of the TFC mercs while he was working with them. It's the only thing that makes sense from context. Yes, the wording in the comics was a bit ambiguous, but I'm confused why so many people in the fandom seem to get that wrong.
What makes _TF2_ so special in which _Overwatch_ can't do in terms of character personality is that the Mercenaries comes off psychotic warmongers, yet their eccentricity and quirks makes them likeable, but _Overwatch_ casts tried to take themselves seriously, but resulted to being generic and predictable. Not to mention that Overwatch tried to be deep with its worldbuilding, but TF2 has Abraham Lincoln, the first Pyro who becomes the inventor of stairs just to make an attempt for his rocket jump stunt.
Absolute Based Eldritch Freindship Moment. Unorthodox Absurdity is the best medicine... When also done right, TF2 achieved this well whiles being relatively complex.
@@Mangoeplanter i wouldnt say this one was a crap on the overwatch, just a comparison, but i can totally agree on it being impossible and i honestly think it should stop

22:05 As a russian speaker, I say you pronounced it correctly. By the way, "Misha" is an informal way to say the name "Mikhail", so the heavy's formal name is Mikhail(Just a fun fact).
Get this: it has been confirmed that the script for the final comic was finished and still exists. But Valve fired its artist team who was responsible for the comic months prior to its production. The script itself exists in a drawer somewhere at valve hq collecting dust where, if we are being honest, it will probably remain until the end of time. Edit: Well, I’ll be damned…
The artist (Heather Campbell) is very much still working at Valve according to her active social media accounts, mainly on DOTA 2. As for the colorist (Maren Marmulla), idk. Both writers are also still working at Valve as contractors (they worked on Alyx).
The reason they come back (mentioned at 9:00) is because the Medic literally SURGICALLY ATTACHED HIS TEAMMATES SOULS TO HIS OWN because of a loophole he had in a deal with the literal DEVIL, so that he wouldn't go to hell when he died.
the RED team appears in all the meet the team videos and expiration date, but for the comics it was confirmed that the team is mixed of both RED and BLU mercs. a notable example being scout, who is shown to be the BLU scout rather than the RED scout in the MVM comic, as well as the fact that the RED spy is his dad which was shown in meet the spy
I think it can probably be explained that the mercs were just on better terms after the gravel wars ended for the first time, so they intermingled a bit more.
my headcanon is that there's only 9 mercs, but they're hired for both sides since they can respawn, who is to say that respawn machine thing can't just not actually respawn but actually produce a physical merc body so why not 2 or even 3 merc bodies? and it's not like the mercs care that much as long as they get to fight and enjoy a few little hobbies on the side my other headcanon is that the administrator is the one who made the comics, she can't finish the last one because it turns out that it took longer than 1 hour to finish so she ran out of australium
Ill admit, Ive been calling myself a casual fan/appreciator of TF2 for quite some time (I just liked the character designs and voice acting + the memes) but did not realize how absurdly stupid and awesome their lore was... great video man

Ah sweet! New TF2 lore video. Very nicely done! Lots of energy and a nice coverage of lore even outside the comics. Just have a few notes: 1. Saxton’s ex-girlfriend Maggie would also be an exception to the “no australium = no powers” thing, which is admittedly a bit harder to explain. It could be that the people on the outskirts of Australia got hit the hardest by the drought, and there was a severe lack of distribution outside the mainlands (hence, why Sniper’s adoptive parents were not muscular in the slightest). 2. Elizabeth/Helen does not “work for Mann Co.”, Elizabeth/Helen runs TF Industries, which owns RED and BLU, and does dealings with Mann Co. for weapons and such. 3. Saxton’s flashback with Maggie takes place before he inherits Mann Co., hence the topic of their discussion. 4. Helen is very likely not Elizabeth’s granddaughter (daughter if anything, since I’m assuming you got these facts from the wiki, the mother in this situation “Emily” was debunked some years ago by the lead artist for the comics, and no one has found any evidence of that name being on anything TF2-related ever), rather Helen *is* Elizabeth under a new identity. Especially with the whole “150 years” thing. 5. The Apple comic is considered non-canon, since it exists purely as a cross-promotion (also given the whole “Saxton blows up the moon” thing). 6. In regard to Scout Spy and Engie, it’s worth saying that, in my experience, if a bit of lore is discovered about either a RED or BLU mercenary, just assume it applies to both and that, eventually, both teams just merge into the same people anyway. There are waaaaay too many inconsistencies and such to argue against (my favourite being who was present in A Smissmas Story), and it’s clear that the writers eventually completely axed BLU team (minus Engie) to reduce confusion in the more story-heavy MvM/Mann Co. No More arc. 7. Merasmus is arrested after being framed for the murder of Tom Jones by Soldier. The raccoon incident simply gets him evicted.
One detail you forgot: In that last comic, when Scout is in heaven, God heavily implies that Scout is the guy from Five Nights at Freddy's 2. Meaning we got a shared universe here. ALSO MY NAME IS TYLER AAAAAAAA
I've just read this comic, and the dates don't add up... God says He will see Scout on 4th december 1987... However, the Fnaf2 check with Jeremy Fitzgerald's salary has a date of 11/12/1987... And this is the American way of dating, because the Pink Slip that you get in custom night says 11/13/1987, where is no 13th month, so 11 stands for november... That means, Fnaf2, and by extension the bite of 87, where Jeremy dies, both happen in november... Scout cannot be the Fnaf2 guard... Their deaths happen two weeks apart... . . . . . No need to shove me in the locker, I'll do it myself... 🤓☝️...
What An ODYSSEY it's been to be a fan of Team Fortress 2; I know this is a bit abridged, but as a fan who's been following TF2 since The War! Update (though I only got my 1st Steam account & started playing in 2017 before Jungle Inferno, then had to make another one back in 2021/22 for password issues), this is a great tribute to one of the best games I've had the honor of playing & loving tenderly; it far exceeds its very real current troubles (hence #FixTF2 and #SaveTF2 before it) with its "fun & function first" foundations and the fire-forged community that's grown around it - and I hope the powers in power at Valve are cojoled by the movement to let the TF Team grow again so the necessary updates can happen & we can play the game bot-free again. Thank You For Your Time & Effort, and Keep Up The Good Work! (:
Hey Choopo, you might've made this video too soon. Valve just confirmed that they're continuing the comic so the end will be coming. Might need to do a follow-up video or maybe an extended cut. Satisfaction is on the horizon bro.
if you use the keys you can go through a video frame by frame if you press the left and right arrow keys you go forward and backward through the video by 5 seconds
According to an appearant leak, the last comic is meant to end with all of the Administrator's nukes going off, killing the mercenaries. When humanity re-emerges, a stone age red and blue team begin duking it out.
I love how Snipers kidneys are canonically 3 times the size of a normal humans. He has to drink water and piss so often because he will literally die if he doesn’t keep it up.
Imagine trying to explain tf2 lore to someone and just say: “Oh that’s interesting” “Yeah I know” “Oh! Not only that, Medic also make the Classic Heavy pregnant!” “….what?”
Actually the named mercenaries are the only one of their character because they were specifically hired to fight in the Robot war. There aren't two Dell Conagher's, the only named one is Blu Engineer and Jeremy is specifically the Blu Scout with his dad being the Red Spy, why the 18 mercs look the same has yet to be explained but it's widely accepted that it's just to tie in with gameplay but those mercs are different people with different lives.
There is overwhelming evidence that they are the same people on both teams, and there are clearly more than just one of each merc per team sometimes including official promotional material, so this theory doesn't hold up Not to mention a Valve writer on Twitter once confirmed there are only nine characters. Didn't mention how that works but it would ultimately have to come down to some form of cloning
@@Thornskade nine characters you say? Not "Mercenaries". The brothers certainly have hired more Mercenaries that do the same job that aren't the main cast as during the comic where Dell talks to Blutarch you can see two nameless engineers with different faces who aren't Dell but wear the same uniform maintaining his immortality machine, Dell Connagher is hired specifically by Blutarch. Why doesn't this confirm that only 9 of them mercs out of the supposed 18 are the only one of their character?
There's a fair reason to believe that the 9 mercs participating during the robot war were picked out specifically by both teams, knowing there are only 9 "characters". They are employed by Saxton, not Redman who is dead at this point, there's no reason for all of them to be wearing red, except for the fact that Gray themes his entire robot army around the color blue
There's also the fact that there has been no incidence during the *mainline* comics of any of the named Mercs meeting another version of themselves, maybe this was done for convenience but if cloning was a thing or they were the same people you'd think it'd happen at least once. Even during the Meet the Director comic, we only get the backstories and names of Misha and Mundy, two characters during the robot war who were CONFIRMED to be from Red
If you ended up liking TF2, I recommend watching the fan-made TF2 movie “Emesis Blue”. It’s a psychological horror movie that explores the horrifying concept of eternal life/death. It’s really well made and definitely worth a watch. And great job on the video!
I am an Overwatch fan, but it pains me to know that the game will never have lore as good as TF2. The insane highs of Overwatch are nowhere even near the lows of TF2.
Objects on the Rooftop: -Riddler Trophy -Crate marked with tally marks, along with 50 and 100 -Fried egg, sunny side up -A Hookshot lodged in the brick lining -Portable Grill Lemme know if I missed anything!
I have never encountered anyone who didn't know a TF2 background character to be from TF2. But then again with Valve added game mode VSH and his appearance in the last major update... I think people start to pay more attention to him more than the usual 9 mercs. It's funny cause before that no one even gives much fuck to Saxton Hale, Miss Pauling or even the Administrator. Most TF2 background characters aren't important to most people's mind
im so happy that every game of tf2 is canon that means that sometimes red and blue just have a great time with each other and don’t kill anyone for a round or 2 lol
Many years ago, when the Misha back in Siberia arc happened (I think), I just assumed that the immortality machine IS the respawn machine. Like Blutarch and Redmond keep dying of old age and respawning too, then they decided to implement the same thing for their mercs
I’m taking full credit for Issue Seven being made, go read it, it’s good

Make a story so far of "sonic" and "mario"
Uh yes that poor monkey.
By the way clone machines exist in TF2.
Also we all wish for them to finished the comic but at this point I give up.
Didn’t even mention that they bought the desert land because they wanted gravel, and mistook the sand for gravel
They called the sand “Fool’s Gravel”
Honestly nowadays sand is 10000x higher worth than gravel nowadays
Oi! Gravel often contains platinum ore for catalytic converters, alloys, and conductors!
@@G.r.e.g.g.l.e.s not like those two knew that.
they also thought gravel was gasoline.
I mean if you think about it, isn't sand just super fine gravel?
tf2 lore is like the story you make while you play with legos when you were little.

Ah sweet! New TF2 lore video. Very nicely done! Lots of energy and a nice coverage of lore even outside the comics. Just have a few notes:
1. Saxton’s ex-girlfriend Maggie would also be an exception to the “no australium = no powers” thing, which is admittedly a bit harder to explain. It could be that the people on the outskirts of Australia got hit the hardest by the drought, and there was a severe lack of distribution outside the mainlands (hence, why Sniper’s adoptive parents were not muscular in the slightest).
2. Elizabeth/Helen does not “work for Mann Co.”, Elizabeth/Helen runs TF Industries, which owns RED and BLU, and does dealings with Mann Co. for weapons and such.
3. Saxton’s flashback with Maggie takes place before he inherits Mann Co., hence the topic of their discussion.
4. Helen is very likely not Elizabeth’s granddaughter (daughter if anything, since I’m assuming you got these facts from the wiki, the mother in this situation “Emily” was debunked some years ago by the lead artist for the comics, and no one has found any evidence of that name being on anything TF2-related ever), rather Helen *is* Elizabeth under a new identity. Especially with the whole “150 years” thing.
5. The Apple comic is considered non-canon, since it exists purely as a cross-promotion (also given the whole “Saxton blows up the moon” thing).
6. In regard to Scout Spy and Engie, it’s worth saying that, in my experience, if a bit of lore is discovered about either a RED or BLU mercenary, just assume it applies to both and that, eventually, both teams just merge into the same people anyway. There are waaaaay too many inconsistencies and such to argue against (my favourite being who was present in A Smissmas Story), and it’s clear that the writers eventually completely axed BLU team (minus Engie) to reduce confusion in the more story-heavy MvM/Mann Co.

One detail you forgot: In that last comic, when Scout is in heaven, God heavily implies that Scout is the guy from Five Nights at Freddy's 2. Meaning we got a shared universe here.
ALSO MY NAME IS TYLER AAAAAAAA
Right behind you
@@lilyofthatvelley Think fast, chucklenut! *(Pipe bomb explodes)*
Does That Mean Australium Is Remnant?
Tf2 vs fnaf 2 let’s go
I've just read this comic, and the dates don't add up... God says He will see Scout on 4th december 1987... However, the Fnaf2 check with Jeremy Fitzgerald's salary has a date of 11/12/1987... And this is the American way of dating, because the Pink Slip that you get in custom night says 11/13/1987, where is no 13th month, so 11 stands for november... That means, Fnaf2, and by extension the bite of 87, where Jeremy dies, both happen in november...
Scout cannot be the Fnaf2 guard... Their deaths happen two weeks apart...

What An ODYSSEY it's been to be a fan of Team Fortress 2; I know this is a bit abridged, but as a fan who's been following TF2 since The War! Update (though I only got my 1st Steam account & started playing in 2017 before Jungle Inferno, then had to make another one back in 2021/22 for password issues), this is a great tribute to one of the best games I've had the honor of playing & loving tenderly; it far exceeds its very real current troubles (hence #FixTF2 and #SaveTF2 before it) with its "fun & function first" foundations and the fire-forged community that's grown around it - and I hope the powers in power at Valve are cojoled by the movement to let the TF Team grow again so the necessary updates can happen & we can play the game bot-free again. Thank You For Your Time & Effort, and Keep Up The Good Work! (:
Hey Choopo, you might've made this video too soon. Valve just confirmed that they're continuing the comic so the end will be coming. Might need to do a follow-up video or maybe an extended cut. Satisfaction is on the horizon bro.
15:00 it’s even better actually, they blew up a mask says training facility and the 3 has to replace the Santa’s killed 😭
8:07 Actually, it took me less than 30 seconds. One might even say it was super easy. Barely an inconvenience.
Stuff like this is the reason video speed seconds exist.
same by reducing the speed to 0.25
if you use the keys you can go through a video frame by frame
if you press the left and right arrow keys you go forward and backward through the video by 5 seconds
Kms, it took me forever
Oh really?
27:40 until now :)
Say sike right now…. WHAT
@@danieltube7361No, it’s real.
Yep... The 7th comic is coming.... Nobody knows when.....
It's coming.
"Merasmus threatens to kill him but Soldier took the "Come back from the dead stronger" pills" I'm McFucking losing it
I love the Australia having a more powerful metal like wakanda and you said "good Lord, everybody else is in danger now!" It makes me laugh
According to an appearant leak, the last comic is meant to end with all of the Administrator's nukes going off, killing the mercenaries. When humanity re-emerges, a stone age red and blue team begin duking it out.
thats fucking lame
@@GoldenKarelytyeah but it’s also an unsourced leak
I agree @@GoldenKarelyt
Yeah, that’s probably fake
@@kirabad-artist6532it was indeed, fake
5:21 Choopo: it's given to a bunch of Australians
Also Choopo: *proceeds to show a bunch of people holding the flag of New Zealand*
Good news, the comic is in production still.
I never know anything about the franchises you talk about, but I like how you talk about them.
I love how Snipers kidneys are canonically 3 times the size of a normal humans. He has to drink water and piss so often because he will literally die if he doesn’t keep it up.
Imagine trying to explain tf2 lore to someone and just say:
“Oh that’s interesting”
“Yeah I know”
“Oh! Not only that, Medic also make the Classic Heavy pregnant!”
“….what?”
If only he knew they are confirmed working on the finale as of my writing this.
I like how you couldn't even start to question most of the events that happened just because the list kept going Dx
Actually the named mercenaries are the only one of their character because they were specifically hired to fight in the Robot war. There aren't two Dell Conagher's, the only named one is Blu Engineer and Jeremy is specifically the Blu Scout with his dad being the Red Spy, why the 18 mercs look the same has yet to be explained but it's widely accepted that it's just to tie in with gameplay but those mercs are different people with different lives.
There is overwhelming evidence that they are the same people on both teams, and there are clearly more than just one of each merc per team sometimes including official promotional material, so this theory doesn't hold up
Not to mention a Valve writer on Twitter once confirmed there are only nine characters. Didn't mention how that works but it would ultimately have to come down to some form of cloning
@@Thornskade nine characters you say? Not "Mercenaries". The brothers certainly have hired more Mercenaries that do the same job that aren't the main cast as during the comic where Dell talks to Blutarch you can see two nameless engineers with different faces who aren't Dell but wear the same uniform maintaining his immortality machine, Dell Connagher is hired specifically by Blutarch. Why doesn't this confirm that only 9 of them mercs out of the supposed 18 are the only one of their character?
There's a fair reason to believe that the 9 mercs participating during the robot war were picked out specifically by both teams, knowing there are only 9 "characters". They are employed by Saxton, not Redman who is dead at this point, there's no reason for all of them to be wearing red, except for the fact that Gray themes his entire robot army around the color blue
There's also the fact that there has been no incidence during the *mainline* comics of any of the named Mercs meeting another version of themselves, maybe this was done for convenience but if cloning was a thing or they were the same people you'd think it'd happen at least once. Even during the Meet the Director comic, we only get the backstories and names of Misha and Mundy, two characters during the robot war who were CONFIRMED to be from Red
Scout’s voice actor got to name him and he named him after Jerma985
If you ended up liking TF2, I recommend watching the fan-made TF2 movie “Emesis Blue”. It’s a psychological horror movie that explores the horrifying concept of eternal life/death. It’s really well made and definitely worth a watch.
And great job on the video!
8:07 okay buddy what the flip
THE SEVENTH COMIC IS IN THE WORKS, WE ARE GOING TO LIVE FOREVER!
28:40 that tyler call out made me shit myself
All the best media takes place in New Mexico
-TF2
-Breaking Bad
-my 2011 arrest
Man all of this lore feels like eating glue with sour cream.
i had this playing in the background while doing animations
and lost my shit at "Saxton invents the internet and buys all of Europe"
WHAT
8:07 I can't believe you did this lmfao, thank you for dropping another banger, you're hilarious.
I’ve been in the TF2 community since 2021, joining it was the best decision I ever made
hey it’s you again, the guy who did the bad things
cringe lol
It's not that much, I have been there since 2015
Bro has been in every fandon
I feel sorry for you. I wish you could've seen TF2 in its glory days.
I got two things from this. TF2 New Zealand thinks it's Rapture and this game has a disappointing lack of French toast.
I think choopo should do the bionicle lore
yes, he should
Can't wait to see Choopo get another aneurysm about multiverses
ITS REAL, THE 7TH COMIC IS REAL!
14:23 Fun fact:
This is because in real life Aussies created wifi (Not the internet just Wifi)
“It’s giving to Australia”
*proceeds to show the flag of NewZealand 5:22
Blu team lore: *Respawn lore*
Red team lore: “WE CANNOT TELEPORT BREAD ANYMORE” “as long as nobody watches anymore Skibidi Toilet” “GUESTION”
austrian gets denied from art school, then fights all of europe.
American, gets denied from army, then fights all of europe.
The TF2 comics are actually peak fiction and I love them so much I have read them so many times
THEY FINALLY MADE THE 7TH COMIC THIS IS NOT A DRILL, I REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A DRILL
Haven't even watched 5 minutes and I already know this is gonna be a Certified Choopo Classic
we can thank choopo for manifesting the seventh comic. hallelujah
5:21 THATS THE NEW ZEALAND FLAG
I laughed so hard at Soldier just teleporting all that bread. "Teleport as much bread as you want"
Powerful words
I am an Overwatch fan, but it pains me to know that the game will never have lore as good as TF2. The insane highs of Overwatch are nowhere even near the lows of TF2.
20:32 HOW MANY MONTHS???????
It's coming comic 7 is coming
Objects on the Rooftop:
-Riddler Trophy
-Crate marked with tally marks, along with 50 and 100
-Fried egg, sunny side up
-A Hookshot lodged in the brick lining
-Portable Grill
Lemme know if I missed anything!
Wait Saxton Hale is from TF2?
i only knew about him from the sr pelo crocodile video
💀
dude no💀, sr pelo is a fan of tf2 and he added saxton hale as a joke-
@@sevdev99stuffs IK i just didn't know what it was a reference to beforehand!
But Sr Pelo has made a lot of TF2 videos. I guess you wouldn't know if you didn't play the game but still
I have never encountered anyone who didn't know a TF2 background character to be from TF2. But then again with Valve added game mode VSH and his appearance in the last major update... I think people start to pay more attention to him more than the usual 9 mercs. It's funny cause before that no one even gives much fuck to Saxton Hale, Miss Pauling or even the Administrator. Most TF2 background characters aren't important to most people's mind
I believe the illustrator of the comics stopped working at Valve over 2 years ago.
I'd not be surprised if it was over 7 years ago.
No, she's working on DOTA
IT'S BEING FINISHED. IT'S BEING FINISHED. IT'S BEING FINISHED. IT'S BEING FINISHED.
HOLY FUCKING SHOT CHOOPO THEY RELEASED THE LAST PART!!!!!!!
this hit me right in the middle of my tf2 hyperfixation i love you choopo
5:55 I honestly didn't think I'd see a nod to Asterix here. It'd be kind of cool to see Choopo make an Asterix video.
Issue #7 is BACK ON THE MENU
Australians stay jacked because the Australium runs through their veins...**literally**
The bucket dipper caught me off guard.
im so happy that every game of tf2 is canon that means that sometimes red and blue just have a great time with each other and don’t kill anyone for a round or 2 lol
0:18 Bro is an actual menace, an criminal 💀🪦
Yeah time guardian
Many years ago, when the Misha back in Siberia arc happened (I think), I just assumed that the immortality machine IS the respawn machine. Like Blutarch and Redmond keep dying of old age and respawning too, then they decided to implement the same thing for their mercs
Update: comic issue 7 just dropped LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
26:35 I love how you edited the dialogue boxes even though there is nothing said about him killing Medic in those particular boxes.
