Me, Agargara, and Webriprob came up with the idea of making something like Problem Sleuth, but in BOTB form. Problem Sleuth is Homestuck's predecessor, where readers submitted their own commands for characters to do which were then written into the comic, often leading to unexpected results.
For this battle series, you submit a command for a character to do based on what happened in the last page, and then when battle time rolls around, you select a command to take, and then make a 256x256 panel of what happens next, alongside a caption about what happens, if you wish. The winner of the battle becomes the official "next page", and then you submit commands following that page, and rinse and repeat.
Without further ado, let's start off with PAGE 1! submit commands in the replies.

"your name is JOHN A. STRONAUT. it is your 56TH DAY ABOARD SPACE STATION S.L.U.G., and you are awaiting to be dispatched for your NEXT MISSION. What do you do next?"

John: retrieve arms from space chest.
