Valve has released the first installment of Portal 2: Lab Rat, a comic that is meant to bridge the gap between Portal and Portal 2. We are introduced officially to the mysterious Rat Man and gain insight to the shattering world of Aperture Science. (Originally seen on IGN.)

Oh my god, what's that thing on the table on Page 14? And what's that thing mounted on the wall?
WTF is going on???

So... Ratman invented/developed the Portal gun?

He is Ratman, right?

Also on an official web page of its own now, along with a PDF and wallpapers.

Well it looks like we either are seeing a very blatant reference to hl1-2, or we now have canon proof of some very bad deeds done by Black Mesa.
If this image is any true canon proof, it looks like BM took part in corperate scandal and stole the tech for the HEV suit AND the Gravity Gun...

also inb4 bitching about the art style.

So what, this is end of Portal 1, with flashbacks to Aperture's glory days?

"Test subject is abnormally stubborn"

Didn't Breen say Alyx's mother was very stubborn?

Edit: Nevermind I had the quote reversed. He said she had her mother's eyes.

according to the combine overwiki, alyx's mother is named Azian. not quite sure of the source though...but she died at Black Mesa.

I believe Eli talks about her if you stare at the family photo inside Black Mesa East.

IGN says that this was the second half. So that leads me to believe this is it for the comic. At least...this comic.
