I know Rich knows the plot in advance, but I never noticed this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0330.html)when I read it, and yet it is clearly a massive bit of foreshadowing, not to mention presented in the coolest way I have ever found.

Oracle: "Now c'mon, I haven't got all day, and the two of you are running late for a pair of family reunions. So how are you paying?"

This is said to Elan and Roy, right before Nale kidnaps Julia.
I don't know how I missed that.
Impressive.


In the same general idea, the Oracle letting things slip, we know Belkar won't survive more than two more years, as the Oracle said that he "should savor his next birthday cake. 'Nuff said."

Huh, I missed that "family reunion" thing. Quite crafty, Mr. Giant.

The one where Roy gets his hands burned when he tries to re-swear his vow to smack Xykon down is also pretty devious :smallsmile:

Edit : - in strip 298, note how he ends up hitting the deck too :smallbiggrin:

Open a new window with the comic you want...
Copy the entire address from the bar...
Go back to the thread you're posting...
Highlight the text you want to link...
Click the little Globe-with-chainlink button ("Insert Link") in the thread editor...
Paste the address you copied from ealier in the Explorer User Promt Window
???
Profit!

Hope that helps! :smallbiggrin:
