OOTS #689 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

New comic is up.

[Elfin]

Belkar.

[247reader]

Oh, Belkar... Really doing his part for the team, these days, even if just for his own reasons.

[TengYt]

A sneaky jab at the "morally justified" threads, perhaps?

[Mando Knight]

...So Belkar will get put in ever-increasing amounts of danger until he finally dies...

[silvadel]

Uhoh -- if he is out of spice -- how long till he croaks? And how long till he has severe withdrawl?

[Deepkicker]

I look forward to the next few strips- seeing Bellkar dangling before the maw of a gigantic worm is something I didn't realize I really wanted to see until now.

Also, good old Durkon remembered to bring the cat.

[Acero]

not exactly a funny strip, but it gets the story moving...

they're gonna need a big stick

wait.... where is the worm's nose?

[X2]

Yeesh... A ton of excellent comics before this, but now... Meh

5/10

[Ridureyu]

That sounds so much like an actual cpnversation that could take place in a game that it's awesome.

Very true.

Also: V carrying Durkon is weird.

[CoffeeIncluded]

...Oh boy.

Oh Belkar. Belkar, Belkar, Belkar.

[Porthos]

I get the impression that Rich is mocking the rash of morality themed threads that have plauged the forums recently.

And even if he wasn't, that's how I'll choose to interpet this strip.

[omglolnub]

Very nice, Belkar almost had me going there for a moment.

It's also nice to see V tackle yet another problem without blasting it to bits and instead actually thinking.

[Sila Prirode]

And here was I expecting a big ol' showdown that would span at least 5 comics

[Flickerdart]

Maybe V can get the worm in some sort of more permanent enchantment, and it and Blackwing must compete for their master's affection. There can be only one familiar!

...can there be only one familiar? I'm sure someone's figured out how to have like 20 of them.

[PirateMonk]

How are they going to stay on the worm without hooks?

[Woodsman]

Agreed whole-heatedley.

I love Mr. Scruffy as Durkon is carrying him.

[Porthos]

Well, I'm not so sure how sneaky it is, but, yeah. I'm in total agreement with you here.

...

Cue the "Wait, Belkar agreed with doing it, while mocking it. Therefore it really is evil" threads in three... two... one...

[Aethir]

Man, good click timing for the day. Excellent strip, and I honestly can't wait to see how many people are gonna post this as a 'This is how Belkar is going to die!' thread.

[KBF]

Jab or no jab, this strip was hilarious because it flows so well. Like a real conversation.

Also it's a pretty epic jab.

[ravage]

hehe nice one

[grassy]

<insert joke about my penis being large here>

Well, the thread DOES provide incontrovertable proof of Miko's innocence, after all.

[LuisDantas]

What a great use of Belkar - by highlighting how much he doesn't fit. :)

[Mr. Mud]

Awesome comic! Worth the wait .

[Thufir]

And all of a sudden, my accidentally staying up too late is worth it.

[FalconerLombard]

"Dangle Away!"

That made laugh enough to come out of lurking.

[Kroy]

Dangle away man. Dangle away!

[Red XIV]

Poor Mr Scruffy, Durkon clearly has no idea how to hold a cat.
