The first encounter between Roadhog and Junkrat - Overwatch’s 14th short comics ‘Wasted Land’ revealed

 

On September 6th, the 14th short comic ‘Wasted Land’ was revealed via the official Ovewatch homepage.


This comic, written by Robert Brooks and drawn by Miki Montllo, depicts the moment when Roadhog had his very first encounter with Junkrat at Junkertown, the place that turned into a wasteland in Australia. The comic explains how Roadhog ended up following Junkrat, and why the pair earned the hatred from the queen of Junkertown.


Mako Rutledge, also known as Roadhog, has been surviving by salvaging metals nearby Junkertown and dedicating them to the queen after the omnium fusion core explosion. He was growing tired of his wasted hometown and life.

When he was quenching his thirst at a bar after work, he spotted Junkrat who was being questioned about the location of the ‘treasure’ by the queen’s puppets. Although Roadhog had no relationship with Junkrat at the time, he was unintentionally dragged into the fuss because of Junkrat clinging to him and saying that he is ‘the kind of friend who would share the treasure’. Roadhog eventually fought with the queen’s puppets who provoked him and drove all of them out.


Roadhog then claimed 50% of the treasure as a payback from Junkrat. Though Junkrat refused and attempted negotiations at first, he eventually accepted a 50% offer because of Roadhog’s silent pressure. The comics ends with Junkrat and Roadhog taking the road and Roadhog making up his mind that they will make sure the world doesn’t forget them.


‘Wasted Land’, the short comic depicting the first encounter between Roadhog and Junkrat, is available for free via the Media tab on the official Overwatch homepage.
