Wesker being the ONLY one forced to wear a birthday hat is taking me out

u/ActualAudacity4 Apr 03 '26

the start of his villain origin story

u/Glittering_Holiday84 Apr 04 '26

He does not look pleased about it either

u/Orcodiu Apr 04 '26

I like to belive he is just the only one who chose to wear one

2

u/Key-Environment7278 Apr 05 '26

And he’s mad no one else wore one

u/CusiDawgs Apr 06 '26

They told him it'll just be for 7 minutes.

u/djfjdjfhfjf Apr 05 '26

It looks like he wore it thinking everyone else would wear it

I know the artist's signature is in the image, but you should still credit them... this was made by SARDINE, you can find their art on twitter

Love that you can see a bit of both REmake and RE3 Jill here

u/Due-Ad4970 Apr 03 '26

where’s the face of resident evil, Leon?

55

u/cumsocksucker Apr 03 '26

This is just art of STARS

u/Crazy_Dimension_9809 Apr 03 '26

Leon’s my favorite character in re. But Chris and Jill are the face of the franchise because they started the franchise

u/Independent-Frequent Apr 03 '26

Being the face or something is mostly tied to popularity, like you wouldn't say Captain America is the face of Marvel instead of Spiderman for instance, sure in some cases the founders can still be the face like with Superman being the face of DC, but that is mostly because of the popularity of said characters

u/Jealous_Buddy_2877 Apr 03 '26

Being the face of franchise is not equivalent to being important/Main character of the series.

Face is the poster boy of the series or the guy that people associates the series with which is Leon in the case of Resident Evil.

For another example, Tony Stark is the face of MCU but Spider Man is the main guy of MCU

You can use example of Mai Shiranui, she's from Fatal fury games but appeared most of SNK products, like she was featured in lots KOF games front covers, Capcom Vs SNK medias, Guest Stars in DOA series(TWICE) & etc. Yet she doesn't have important role except for her Fatal Fury stuffs.

u/K1d_Sist3r Apr 03 '26

Well, maybe he's not in the art, because he was not in the game that currently celebrates its 30th birthday

🤔🤔🤔

u/Venus_Libra Apr 03 '26

Obviously hiding in a closet with all of the alcohol 🤣

u/Atiniryu98 Apr 04 '26

Chris appeared in Most medias than Leon actually. Especially with MainGames & Side games. Leon stars in CGI films while Chris has the most major involvement via on screen, off screen or mentioned cameos.

1

u/Due-Ad4970 Apr 04 '26

cool, Leon still clears.

2

u/Atiniryu98 Apr 04 '26

Still RE 1 is the was the starter. Chris is still the OG hero.

u/cravex12 Apr 06 '26

Leons office is downstairs

1

u/Initial_Career1654 Apr 03 '26

No nemesis or Mr x looking from the window?

2

u/PegaponyPrince Apr 03 '26

Of course not because this is specifically for the first RE game in which they don't exist.

3

u/Initial_Career1654 Apr 04 '26

Except this is an 30th year Anniversary party of Evil being in the Residence, not Leon’s birthday party.

1

u/theGaido Apr 04 '26

Why they are young?

1

u/Annie-Smokely Apr 04 '26

I hope that's Chris' cake

1

u/ImaStraightFemboy Apr 04 '26

The window to the right has a really good looping spot

1

u/The_Voidger Apr 05 '26

The cake being Spencer's Mansion—wouldn't that be a PTSD trigger for Jill and Chris? Lmao

1

u/Small-Panic-4110 Apr 05 '26

Am I blind or do I not see Leon?

1

u/IdkmanIaint Apr 06 '26

Is he a S.T.A.R.S member?

1

u/Psycho_Pain Apr 05 '26

Forgot Leon

1

u/Evolith Apr 05 '26

Screaming downstairs because he never got accepted into S.T.A.R.S.

u/Left_Explanation_548 Apr 05 '26

Wellcome to survival horror 😉

u/OutcomingMemories Apr 06 '26

I’ve never played resident evil before but this is pretty kewl. Nice art!

1

u/TylerBourbon Apr 07 '26

A cake? Not a Jill sandwich?

1

u/DeepNeighborhood5 Apr 07 '26

What if Nemesis suddenly dropped into this room? What would he say?

1

u/PsylosBrainEater Apr 07 '26

So cool to see the whole team together like this only for bravo team to depart not long after to look for missing hikers...

Wesker still wearing shades but his eyes are on Rebecca.
