The Monster in the Darkness: Wait— The scene on the cover didn't happen that way.
Demon-roach: Welcome to show business, kid.

"Maybe it isn't entirely forthright, putting a crusader badass the cover of your medieval allegory — but I don't care. In fact, I support this kind of thing wholeheartedly: fact is, sometimes you got to lie to a motherfucker.

I hope these shenanigans work like gangbusters. We've got your backs on this thing."
Tycho, Penny Arcade
