Tekken Forever
De Tekkenpedia Spanish
Tekken Forever is a comic book that only made it to the first issue before being cancelled. It focused on the Kazama family, as well as the character Unknown, who was featured only in Tekken Tag Tournament. The presence of Jin Kazama's scar and of Unknown herself places the time at roughly between Tekken 3 and Tekken 4.

Even though I have to admit I did rather enjoy that. Box 7 NB: So, this is him, the legendary and presumed dead Kazuya Mishima. | |
| Box 1 NB: Like a damn freak of nature, he single-handedly beat the living hell out of some of the world's strongest toshin users as if they were nothing. Ganryu: That was entertaining, all 20 seconds of it. Bruce Irvin: Tsst. Straight up pathetic. I mean, I know you're strong and all, but damn! Kazuya: Pathetic, indeed... Jin Kazama: Why now? I have just learned so much about you, about myself. Why did this have to happen now? | |
| Box 2 Bruce: Big waste of time if you ask me. Beating down everyone by yourself... Why the hell you brought Gany and me? Should've stayed my ass home, ain't that right, Phat Farm? Ganryu: You will address me with respect at all times, Mr. Irvin. Box 3 Bruce: Oh, chill out, Gany. Need I remind you to whom you answer? Box 4 Kazuya: The same could be said for you as well. Understood? Bruce: Yeah, I got it. Kazuya: Would you look at that? | |
| Box 1 NB: Looks like I missed a piece of trash. Jin: I'll let you rest now. You've earned it. Box 2 Jin: Bastards! I will not allow this to continue. Kazuya: Gentlemen, take out the garbage!

Box 6 Jin: Leave the rest to me. Bruce: What? Leave the rest to me? Box 7 Bruce: I know that he's your boy and all Boss, so how far do you want me to take this? Kazuya: Do as you like. Kill him...if you can. Bruce: Woooord!? Ganryu: Finally! | |
| Box 1 NB: The two of you are not even worth my time. Ganryu: Come here, you little brat, let me show you... Box 2 "OOOHHHHFFFF!!!" Jin: Show me what, Ganryu? How to fall flat on my ass? No, thanks. Bruce: Careful Jr, I've been doing this a lot longer than you have. Jin: Have you? One would think that you might have improved by now. (Jin dodges one of Bruce's kicks by ducking.) Bruce: You're cocky, just like your pop over there, but here's the pisser: He can back up that cockiness. Jin: So can I. (Jin grabs one of Bruce's arms. The phrase "ACCCCKKK!!" is shown as he does this.) Jin: And you're wrong...I am nothing like him. Bruce: So you say. Jin: Ok Pops. (Jin points at Kazuya.) Jin: You're up next! |
(The next two pages.) A box at the top left corner of the left page: Egypt, outside of the temple walls, where a different kind of conflict is taking place.
Another box: Hong Kong's very own super police detective Lei Wulong, has been ordered by Interpol to lead a brigade of it's elite soldiers to put an end to Kazuya's power play for dominance.
Lei Wulong: Status...
A soldier: Well, Sir, we seem to be outnumbered greatly - At least 4 to 1. If it was not for Gun Jack, we would have been overtaken by now.
The same soldier: Getting into the main temple looks like it is going to be impossible.
(Three other soldiers are firing at several Prototype Jacks and Jack-2s. Gun Jack is shown fighting some of them. Four "KACK! KACCK! KACK!!!" phrases are also shown.)
Another box: But a heavily armed battalion of retrofitted P-Jacks hinders Lei's company's advancement, along another big problem...
Lei: And why is that?
The soldier: Dear God. Did you hear that?! We gotta retreat. We have to...
Gun Jack: ERROR! MASSIVE DAMAGE! SHUTDOWN IMMINENT!
Lei: Get a hold of yourself man. Now what is stopping you from getting in there?
The soldier: Because there's a goddamn monster in there. He is a killing machine!
(The soldier points to the temple with one of his thumbs.)
Lei: Did you say "A killing machine"?
Lei: As in one fighter, as in one man?
The soldier: Yes sir! Well over 100 troops went in there already, and none has been able to get through.
Lei: You've got to be kidding me. Give me your gun.
Lei: Order everyone to pull back. I'll handle this myself.
(Lei grabs the soldier's gun.)
(Lei is running up to the temple.)
Lei (thinking): What the hell did I get myself into? I am getting too old for this crap. I really put my foot in it this time.
(Lei shines a light from his gun in the temple.)
Lei (thinking): Have mercy...
(A larger image showing Lei shining a light from his gun in the temple. Several dead bodies are laying on the floor.)
Lei (thinking): What the hell could have done this? Neither the P-Jacks nor the Jack-2's have ever killed in such a brutal and monstrous manner.
Lei (thinking): Whoever or whatever did this to you...
Lei (thinking): ...I promise you that I'll get 'em...
(A dismembered head is shown laying on the ground.)
Lei (thinking): ...and avenge your death. What was that?
(Lei shines the gun's light towards an unknown person in the shadows.)
(The person is revealed to be Bryan Fury. Bryan wraps his arms around an alive soldier's neck.)
Bryan Fury: Hey, Lei, How's it goin'?
Lei: Bryan Fury!!!!!!!
The soldier: Dear God. Dear God. No!
Bryan: You remember my MO, don't cha Lei?
The soldier: No! Help me, man. Please, don't let me die
(Lei points his gun at Bryan.)
Lei: Relax, guy. I'll get you out of this.
(The next page.)
(Bryan snaps the soldier's neck. The phrases "CRAACK!" and "ACKK!" are shown. The soldier says, "SIRRRR" as Bryan does this.)
Bryan: I am here son? Oh give me a break with that mushy shit.
(Lei fires at Bryan while shining the gun's light on him. The phrase "BRAK! BRAK! BRAK!" is shown as he does this.)
Lei: God damn you Fury!!!!
(The bullets bounce off of Bryan. The phrase "TATATTAA TA ATATTATTATATATAATATATTATA ATATTAATAATAAT" is shown as this happens.)
Bryan: What? Him? You getting all worked up over that, partner?
Bryan: I killed a good hundred or so of your men, and now you are finally ready to come in here and play.
Bryan: Goddamn, you are a great detective. Haven't seen that look in your eyes for a long time.
Bryan: Gotta ask you something Lei. What makes that M-16 better than the one your troops were packing?
Lei: Good point, you lifeless bastard!
(Lei drops his gun.)
Lei: It'll be more fun for me just to beat the crap out of you.
(Lei punches Bryan on the shoulder.)
Bryan: You don't get it, do you? The difference between us is too great.
(Bryan grabs Lei's arm.)
Lei: Crap!
Bryan: I let it drag out this long because idiots amuse me.
(The next two pages.)
(Bryan is shown choking Lei with one of his hands.)
Lei: Just one question Fury.
Bryan: Make it quick.
Lei: Do you feel anything? Anything at all for all the blood you have spilled?
Lei: The pain and suffering that you have caused?
Bryan: Hmm. Let me answer your question with a question.
Bryan: Do you feel any remorse when you flush your toilet?
Lei: So that answers that.
Bryan: Quick and easy, for old time's sake.
(Yoshimitsu appears (in his Tekken 3 form) and strikes Bryan on the back with his sword. The phrase "ARRRRRRR!!!!!" is shown as he does this. Bryan is screaming in pain (judging from the look on his face).)
Yoshimitsu: Take it easy man. Sorry I am late Lei. My alarm clock didn't go off.
(Bryan is still standing.)
Yoshimitsu: Woo. My strongest attack and you're still able to function. Dr. Able has truly created a horrible monster in you, wouldn't you say Detective?
Lei: Who him?
Lei: Nah! He's a bitch. A bitch who murders people for sport. And just like a bitch, he's got to be put to sleep.
(Lei and Yoshimitsu are shown facing Bryan. All three of them are preparing to fight.)
Yoshimitsu: You make it sound so easy. Hey, Lei! How many quarters do you got? I might have to continue against this guy.
Lei: Don't worry, I have a few wooden nickels you can borrow. Now let's cut the chat and take this guy down.
Yoshimitsu: Um, sure. You go first.
(The scene changes to Kazuya and Jin fighting.)
Jin: Is it a sin for a son to spill the blood of his father?
(Jin throws a punch. Kazuya grabs his fist, stopping the punch from connecting.)
Kazuya: You were born in sin, boy. And don't worry...
(Kazuya throws Jin into the air. The phrase "ACCRRRRACK!" is shows as he does this.)
Kazuya: ...You won't be spilling any of my blood.
(Jin is on the ground and clutching his chest.)
Jin: Give me a minute, I'm working on it.
(Kazuya jumps in the air.)
Kazuya: Stop fighting what you are. You'll never be able to unlock and control the "Devil Gene" within you.
Jin: Stop it! Don't you see that I am nothing like you?
(Jin is shown throwing a punch and about to follow it with another.)
Kazuya: Does not matter. You will realize it when it is too late.
Jin: Your words fall on deaf ears now that I know the truth.
(Kazuya twists Jin's arms behind his back. The phrase "AAAGH!" is shown as he does this.)
Kazuya: Truth?
Kazuya: Please...
(Kazuya kicks Jin away from him. The phrase "STRAAAAAPP!!!!!" is shown as he does this.)
Kazuya: The mere sound of your voice brings me undo irritation. It does not matter to me if you agree. My only concern is that you return what belongs to me.
Jin (thinking): Such power...
(The next page.)
(Kazuya is shown on a set of stairs leading to a temple. Jin is at the bottom of the stairs, crouching slightly.)
Kazuya: I have waited far too long for this day, and I will not allow a mistake stand in my way from having my dreams realized.
Jin (thinking): Damn he's strong. I never would have thought that a human being could achieve this level of power.
Jin (thinking): No. This is far past any level of toshin power that a human could possibly reach.
(Jin is shown standing next to Paul Phoenix, who is sitting on the ground.)
Jin (thinking): He's different from any fighter I have ever faced.
Jin (thinking): Not even the toshin level of Paul, Eddy, Howrang, Grandfather or even Toshin himself can come close to this.
Jin (thinking): What am I supposed to do? How can I...
Paul Phoenix: He is a strong S.O.B, ain't he?
(A flashback shows a fight between Jin and Paul. Jin is sitting on the ground next to a broken fence while Paul is standing up.)
A box: Me and your pop's have done this dance more than once. But you kid. You are different than us.
Another box: Ever since you and I first traded blows, I knew you were nothing like your father or me.
Another box: I saw it in your eyes. You don't fight to win. You fight not to lose.
(The flashback ends.)
(Jin is looking down at Paul, who is still on the ground.)
Paul: I heard what he said, and you are right... You're nothing like him.
Jin: Paul...
Paul: You have a lot to live for, Jin...
(Paul puts his hand on one of Jin's legs.)
Paul: You have given me the rest I needed. Thanks, kid.
(The next two pages.)
(Paul is now standing up next to Jin. Kazuya is looking at them with his arms crossed.)
Paul: This is the end of a long-dragged-out saga that should have ended before you were born.
(Paul puts his hand on Jin's shoulder.)
Paul: So sit back and let me handle this one.
Jin: But Paul I.
Paul: No buts. Allow this old man to be the one to put the nail in Kazuya's coffin.
Paul: It's the least that I could do...
Paul: ...Since I owe your mom my life and all.
(Paul's fists are now glowing with green energy.)
Paul: Come now Jerkchicken, and let me show you how a real man fights.
(Paul has his arms crossed.)
Paul: Want me to wait while you go get one?
Paul: Funny. By the way, what the hell happened to your face?
(Kazuya's face is shown with a couple of scars on it.)
Paul: Shit! I didn't think it could get any worse than it already was.
Paul: Nothing to say, ah? Good. I want to remember your face...
Paul: ...Just like... That!!!
(Paul hits Kazuya in the chest with a "hook" punch. The phrase "GRRRR!" is shown as he does this.)
(Paul is shown beating his hand into his fist once. Paul has apparently struck Kazuya again, as there is another hit effect shown, and Kazuya is forced back a little bit. The phrases "ARRRRUUUUUU!!!!!!!" and "DAAAAA." are shown.)
A box: They say a man is at his strongest when has something to protect.
Another box: If that is true...
(Paul grabs Kazuya's neck, and he is shoving him downwards.)
Kazuya: Damn you, Phoenix!
(Paul is shown grabbing Kazuya's arms and preparing to throw him.)
A box: ...Then he has never been stronger than this moment right now.
Another box: Because for once he is not fighting for himself. The stakes are too high for that.
(The next two pages.)
A box: He fights for the people who he has come to know as competitors, but more so as friends...
Paul: Now go to Hell, you son of a bitch!!!!!!!!!!!
(Paul is shown throwing Kazuya through the ground. The phrase "CRAAAAAAAAAKSSKH" is shown as he does this.)
A box: ...As well as for the freedom of life as humankind has come to know it.
(A huge hole has been created due to Paul throwing Kazuya through the ground. Dust is coming up from the hole.
(Jin is shown staring down at the hole.)
Paul: There's life in this old boy... (The phrase "HHEHEHEHEEE" is shown below this speech balloon in orange and yellow letters.)
Jin: That was amazing Sir. Didn't think you had it in ya.
Paul: Yup. yup. I am a fatty boom batty. I don't know about you kid, but I am hunggggrryyyy.
(A closeup of Paul smiling is shown.)
Paul: Who's up for some steak and french-fries?
(The scene changes.)
A box: Jun. Jun. Wake up, my daughter.
(Jun's body is shown. Jun's eyes are closed.)
(Angel is shown.)
Angel: There is much to do. You cannot slumber any longer.
(Angel places one of her hands near Jun's face.)
Angel: My poor child.. You have lost so much, and yet your mind, spirit and toshin are still strong.
Angel: The time has come for you to take the last few steps you need to fulfill your destiny.
(Angel still has one of her hands near Jun's face.)
Angel: Let the tale of remembrance be told.
(The next two pages.)
(Heihachi is shown standing at the top of a cliff. Kazuya is shown falling. This is representing when Heihachi threw Kazuya off of a cliff.)
(Angel is shown behind Jun with one of her hands around Jun's neck and her other around Jun's waist.)
A box: First it began with a man's thirst for power and his desire to become the god of fight.
Another box: Through no fault of his own, that desire was passed on to his son.
Another box: With the inherited drive within him, the son became blinded by an ambition that was not his own.
Another box: Even with the appearance and heart of a devil, you found a way to love him and help free the little trace of good that still remained in his soul, with the hopes that he might once again be placed on the path he was intended to walk.
(Devil is shown holding Jun by the neck.)
(The wolf-like creature that usually accompanies Unknown is shown.)
(Ogre is shown holding two young children in his hands.)
A box: Break free of the evil that so desperately wishes to feed and bond with you. Transcend your humanity once again, and become a deity of toshin.
Another box: You must break free from this self-induced slumber, and protect the children of the light.
Another box: The children of God must not remain in the hands of the Toshin.
Another box: They are here to walk down a path not yet traveled.
Another box: But there is hope, because two children of the Toshin have been born to tip the balance of faith back toward the side of the light.
Another box: But it was not meant to be, and the murderous cycle has begun again. This time with even a greater force than before.
(Michelle Chang, Julia Chang, Wang Jinrei, and Ling Xiaoyu are shown next to some wooden boards that were placed in the ground. Michelle is using a stick to support herself, and Wang has his arms crossed.)
A box: Now, Awaken!!!!!!!
(Jun wakes up. Jun now has a third eye on her forehead.)
Jun: AHHHHHHH!!!!!
(The next page.)
(Eddy Gordo, Ling Xiaoyu, Jin Kazama, King, Paul Phoenix, Forest Law, and Hwoarang are shown standing up.)
A box: A short time later, after what is believed to be the final battle between Paul Phoenix and Kazuya Mishima.
Ling Xiaoyu: Um. Anyone cares to tell me what happened?
Forest Law: Well, duh, ain't it obvious? My man Paul did away with that psycho dude while we were napping.
Paul: Got that right, Forrest.
(Paul and Forest high five. The phrase "SMACK!" is shown as they do this.)
Xiaoyu: Huh. The way that guy cleaned our clocks.
Xiaoyu: I thought we all were going to buy the farm.
Forest: Nah, Ling. Paul told me that he's kicked the crap out of that Kazuya guy plenty of times.
(King and Paul shake hands.)
King: Unbelievable. At least now I don't feel too bad about the outcome of our previous bout, old man.
Paul: Don't worry about it King. Like I told you, you are every bit the fighter King the First ever was.
Jin (thinking): I don't want to knock it, but that almost felt too easy. Something is not right.
(The seven are shown in shadows next to the hole, which is now glowing.)
Forest: Come on guys. Let's check on my dad and the others.
Paul: Yeah, Forrest, we still got to mop up Kazuya's little army out there before we can go get them french-fries.
(The next two pages.)
Jin (thinking): I guess that is really it then. (Heihachi Mishima is shown laying on the grond, still unconscious.) And what to do with you, Grandfather? I know you will not accept things they way they are.
(Hwoarang points at Jin.)
Hwoarang: Hold it buddy, who said we were done?
Jin: Give it a break Hwoarang.
(Hwoarang kicks Jin. The phrases "ARRRGGGGRRRRRR!!!" and "KRACKKK!!!" are shown as he does this. Jin is knocked off of his feet.)
Hwoarang: Oh, I'll give it a break, all right. Break my foot and your sorry ass!!!
(Xiaoyu interrupts one of Hwoarang's punches by grabbing his arm.)
Xiaoyu: Why are you doing this? You're not being controlled by Toshin any longer. There's no reason to...
Hwoarang: Are you insane gurly?
(Hwoarang throws Xiaoyu into a wall. Xiaoyu hits the wall with her back. The phrase "AIIIEEEE!" is shown as this happens.)
Hwoarang: Never get between a wolf and his prey.
(A closeup of Jin's face is shown. The marks of Devil Jin are now on Jin's face.)
Jin / Devil Jin: Grrrrr.. Big mistake
Jin / Devil Jin: This time you've gone too far.

Jin / Devil Jin: Even for someone as low as you.
A box: Finally the Devil Gene within him has emerged.
(Jin / Devil Jin kicks Hwoarang in the face. The phrases "ARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!" and "FRUMPPP!!!" are shown as this happens.)
Jin / Devil Jin: Is this what you wanted?
Another box: This is the power that I knew you had within you, son.
(Jin / Devil Jin prepares to punch Hwoarang.)
Jin / Devil Jin: Since you want to go to Hell so badly, fine!!! I'll send you, and take the express bus getting there.
(A closeup of Hwoarang smiling is shown.)
Hwoarang: Good! This is what I wanted. Show me what you got..
(The next two pages.)
Hwoarang: So that I can lay some serious smack on that ass.
(Hwoarang prepares to punch Jin / Devil Jin.)
Eddy Gordo: Enough!!!
(Eddy grabs Hwoarang's arm, stopping his punch.)
Eddy Gordo: Stupid kid! There has been enough fighting for one day. Now let it go.
Hwoarang: Unhand me dread. I am not going to say it again.
(Paul and King are shown holding Jin / Devil Jin back.)
Paul: I agree with Gordo.
King: Eddy's right. Let us let this one soak in.
Jin / Devil Jin: No! Let him go.
(Xiaoyu puts a hand on Jin's / Devil Jin's chest.)
Xiaoyu: Calm down Jin, I'm alright.
(The marks of Devil Jin are no longer on Jin's face.)
Jin: I'm good now, Ling.
Xiaoyu: Can we call a truce here?
Hwoarang: Agreed... For now.
King: What the hell was that?
Jin: I felt it too.
(Closeups of Jin and King's eyes are shown.)
(The group, with the exception of King, are shown in shadows next to the hole, which is still glowing.)
Xiaoyu: That power. It's coming from... Oh my God!
Jin: Everybody get away from the hole!!!!!!!!
(A closeup of Paul's face is shown.)
Paul: No! It can't be...
A box: Oh but it is, Phoenix.
(An explosion comes from the hole. The phrase "PHEEEEWWWWRRR!!!" is shown vertically. The group, with the exceptions of King and Jin, is knocked into the air by the explosion.)
Another box: This is what real power looks like.
(Kazuya is shown standing up, now wearing what appears to be his Tekken 4 Player One outfit.)

(A closeup of Jin's face is shown.)
Jin: Yeah? How so?
(Kazuya grabs Jin's neck, and Jin tries to free himself.)
