fallout's Ella Purnell with a bloody statue of vault boy
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT 'The Right Hand of The King' is a MATURE comic which uses language not suitable for all readers.
Surprisingly for a location introduced outside the games, the Puppet Man's vault is a canonical Fallout location, with in-game objects and references present in Fallout 3. Since the TV show is also game canon, the Puppet Man was always possible as some kind of cameo appearance. However, fans had assumed that the obscure location and character had been forgotten by everyone but hardcore fans. Now, in a shock return, the Puppet Man is back in a new comic story.
Fallout's Vault 77 Survivor Returns in New Penny Arcade Comic The Puppet Man Is Now a Force Within the Wasteland On April 17, Penny Arcade published a new entry in the Puppet Man story, titled 'The Right Hand of The King.' In the new comic, it's revealed that the Puppet Man is now a major force in the wasteland. Not only does the Vault 77 survivor now own a gigantic fortress, but other survivors are forced to go to him to access vital water.
While some vaults are intended for longterm social observation, others are far more direct experiments. Vault 92 uses white noise to psychologically torture its inhabitants, Vault 11 demands a yearly human sacrifice, and Vault 43 locks 30 people in with a panther. However, Vault 77 is particularly weird, as it contains only a single inhabitant, locked in for years with a crate of puppets.
While the Puppet Man is initially terrified by the mutated wasteland monsters outside, he eventually makes a life for himself, as the Vault Boy puppet allows him to unleash his repressed rage. The original comic ends with the Puppet Man killing a settlement of raiders, having apparently lost himself to the corrupting Vault Boy persona. The full comic can be read on Bethesda's website, and again contains language not suitable for all readers.
While this is just a brief visit to this Fallout 3-connected character, there is the potential for more. In a blog post alongside the comic, artist Mike Krahulik confirms that Penny Arcade may revisit the Puppet Man for further adventures, stating:
