Does this mean there will be no crossover with "Hellboy" and the B.P.R.D. (Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense)?

Also, this guy might make a good cameo in the Warbucks warehouse/factory/testing grounds:

There is one thing I'm curious about... how in the world did the Warbucks Organization influence events leading to the bombing of Nagasaki? If I recall history, the intended prime target of the second atomic bomb was Kokura Arsenal, with Nagasaki being the secondary target. Did Warbucks influence some of the events leading to 'Bock's Car' (the B-29 Superfortress carrying the bomb) changing to Nagasaki mid-mission? :-?

That's just what they want you to think.

Depends on as to whether Calvin will allow others to make use of his technological cardboard boxes. If he did, he would probably sell them at excessive prices. Such as when he dug up trash and mistook it for fossils and proposed to sell them at a price that no museum would pay, even if Calvin did have a real fossil specimen. Also, when selling pseudo-lemonade for 15$ a glass by using economic concepts to justify it.

As to the Nagasaki vampire research organization, what type of vampiric traits did the vampires they were developing had? Western, jiang shi, or something else?

they were beginning to develop emo bishonen sparklepires, and therefore needed to be bombed out of existence before the horror could be unleashed upon mankind.

If that's the case then I must once more lament the fact that some people just don't take enough pride in their work to finish the job.

Welcome!

That'd be awesome, wouldn't it? But I think, sadly, this story arc has reached its limits for crossovers.
Gundam Wing has hot guys, kick-ass women and mechs. Hellsing has hot guys, kick-ass women and guns. ^_^ Ah, the joys of anime.

Yeah, but maybe as, like, a shout out, they could be one of the organizations that benefit from Annie's business. (Also, Pip: flirting with an eighty year old around a vampire you JUST confessed your feelings to? Not smart!)
Finally, I remember to do a signature! Oh the wonder! Oh the happiness! ... I don't even have a snappy remark to make.

D: I am in DESPAIR! The lack of a snappy remark for my signature has left me in despair!

Ooh I got it!

That seems a heck of a re-design for a riot shotgun.

This is bringing up bad memories of Cassidy shooting me in the back. Damn fool never learned to use single shots on people mobbing me in melee.

It should not be forgotten that automatic firearms are more prone to jamming.

Makes me wish I should've submitted my specs for 'Purgatory' the modified Remington 870 tactical shotgun I suggested for Rally Vincent in my Hellsing/Gunsmith Cats fic series 'Night Angels'.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3763778/1/

If anyone is interested, 'Purgatory' looks like the standard Remington 870, but is gun-metal black, and fires 12-guage magnum silver-tipped saboted slugs.

It is relevant to Seras' interests if Pip really NEEDS to compensate for anything.

I wish I could draw, so I could have made a gun. But I can't. *Sigh*

Just as well, really. I've been reading too much Ciaphas Cain, and the only kickass gun I can think of are those Bolter's they sometimes use. It pierces and then explodes! Anti-tank power in a handgun!

Would Seras maybe prefer Mr. Twain's explanation?
