Alexis going away art

I posted this privately on Tumblr and a lot of people seemed to like it so why not share it with the GB community especially since it's about GB.

Alexis is moving to greener pastures and I'm sure we're all going to miss having him around on UPF's and in general. The picture is obviously a joke on Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged (which all jokes aside is actually an interesting book) but it also sort of symbolizes how I imagined Alexis held the site together. Of course there was an entire engineering team as well but I always knew him as the frontman.

Good luck with your future endeavors Alexis! You'll be missed by all. Hopefully you can drop by sometimes if time permits. I know I'd love it if Dave showed up more often but such is life!

This is great. Thanks for sharing it here!

BEEFY

He will be missed. Good luck Alexis!

Awesome art, too. Great job duder

Great stuff.

Wait, where is Alexis going?

He hasn't said. All we know publicly is that he has a new job lined up and will be departing CBSi.

Look at dem abs.

You captured his sweaty forehead sheen nicely.

bye bye alexis ;_;

Alexis! :(

Didn't even know Alexis was leaving.

This awesome art!

You can always count on this community to deliver with this kind of stuff. Great job!

Cool stuff!

Will definitely miss Alexis sitting in on UPF's!

This is incredible.

@marino Some front page material right here!

Alexis is leaving? Damn man... why can't things ever settle for long around here?
His extra life Halo marathon with Drew was one of the first things I really watched on Giant Bomb, it fooled me into initially thinking he and Drew were main "cast" members. Turns out they weren't, though Drew has become one. I'm bummed, but I hope this is a really awesome position he's going into that's going to make him happy. Bye Alexis!

I like this! What's behind the meaning of "Alexis Shrugged?" I must be out of the loop.

What's the AB (or maybe it's AD) stand for on the belt buckle?

This was a really cool thing to do. Wasn't expecting any Alexis leaving art. I wonder if he's seen this yet?

@alexisg What do you think dude? He represented you pretty well. Needs more muscles though ;)

@zombiepie Here's another recommendation for The Community Spotlight.

Really nice work, again, Humanity.

And thanks Alexis, for supporting the bomb.

Going to miss you Alexis! :(

@mortuss_zero: He'll come back for Extra Life this year; I hope we'll still see him in stuff once in a while.

Yup! That's pretty damn good! Good job!

Outstanding.

Top effort, duder. Terrific stuff.

It was a pleasure to watch you build the bomb, Alexis.

Dem abs tho. ;_;

Fantastic stuff as always, @humanity

@pimblycharles: "Alexis Shrugged" is a reference to Atlas Shrugged, a 1957 novel by Ayn Rand.

And "AD" refers to Alexis / Drew, I guess?

It's supposed to be AG.. but it's a little unclear. Good guess though! And yes, the Alexis/Drew powercouple is totally a thing.

Fuck I didn't even know he was leaving :'(

Alexis Gallisa, just to be completely clear :D The "G" does hella look like a fancy "D" though.

EDIT: Oh yeah, also sweet pic

@humanity: At first I thought it was AG for his initials, but then I looked closer and it looked more like AD or AB. Thanks for the clarification. Cool you got a double meaning out of it: Alexis/Drew combo and Alexis Gallisa.

He was seriously one of my favorite people. :<

Alexis is leaving? Oh. :( There goes my hope of him one day becoming a full time member of the crew like Drew did.

Time to buy a subscription. :D

Of course, best to you Alexis. You're awesome, I just never thought you fit in the quick looks or UPFs. Wish you the best of success!

@pimblycharles: Y..y-es all by design..

@quantris: That would be cool.
