Celestial Tree Sloth Attack! (OOTS #805)

In ref to: http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0805.html

Okay the image of the pure white fur; blue face and paws with the halo was just a perfect and dumbfounding configuration.

Was that just a one off? Or was it in reference to some other work?

It's using the same color scheme and halo as the celestial lion here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0478.html), but I think it was just a joke. (One I was quite fond of, too).

[martianmister]

I really hope that thing between his legs is his tail...

:eek:

Pretty sure it's a joke about Elan not realizing, without Vaarsuvius there to whisper in his ear, that "tree sloth" is not a good choice of celestial animal to "summon."

Or just the fact that Elan is probably not thinking, "What's the most useful animal to "summon"?" He never does. Impulse!:smallcool:

Alternatively, he's simply applying the same "lesson" Vaarsuvius gave him the last time she schooled Elan in illusion. What celestial animal would give its opponent more time to retreat in the face of the "threat" it poses than a tree sloth?

I find the funniest thing about the celestial tree sloth is that its "attack" is to just hang on to Sabine's arms. :smallamused:

Inconveniencing people who want to beat you up is generally a good idea.:smalltongue:

well see whos laughing next time you get attacked by a wild sloth

[Dr.Epic]

Yeah, blue and white are just the opposite colors of red and black (the color of infernal creatures).

I think you've just cursed him :smalleek:. Killian, stay away from overhanging trees!

...Or just away from tropical latitudes and zoological gardens...

Sloths are sneaky. You never know when they might pop up.

Or fall down, as the case may be.

[Techwarrior]

Or 'summoned'

[fergo]

Or 'summoned'

Indeed :smallamused:

[Gilphon]

I would not want to get into a fight with a sloth. They have huge, scary claws.

That said, I find it hard to imagine a situation where an animal that lives in the tops of trees thousands of miles away and sleeps 20 hours a day would be interested in picking a fight with me.

Although now I'm imagining one of them taking an overnight flight up here with the undying flame of vengeance burning in his sleepy eyes… :smalleek:

That "Celestial Tree Sloth" attack may be my single most favorite panel from OOTS all-time.
