#FanFilm Friday - Aperture: Lab Ratt

For today, here's a pretty fantastic Portal fanfilm, like there's so many out there.

This one being pretty fun - more so than the more "fanfic" ones - being actually an adaptation of the official Portal comic book Portal 2: Lab Rat.

It follows the story of the schizophrenic invisible protagonist of the first game, Doug Rattmann.
It starts before Portal 1, runs alongside that same game and then ends up a lil' before Portal 2.



Doug Rattman was an Aperture employee. He survived when GLaDOS took over the facility but slowly went insane. When GLaDOS made a list of test subjects, Rattman moved Chell to the #1 spot to be tested first because he had read her file and had a hunch about her....
 
And here's a link to the online version of the comic book.
My only complaint with all these fanfilms is how serious and moody they all are, when the game's so full of humor....
