Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Good observation Pigkappa !
So now the question is, is this a deliberate hint from Rich, or is it just random ? Does MitD have Bard levels ? :-) Let the wild and unprovable speculation begin ! :-)
Nice idea, this makes sense. I didn't think of that.Official Kosh of the Vorlon in the dark fan club

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Is that a slightly different colored goblin I see?

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
No, I was thinking more of a wight with a standard crossbow. Even though that wouldn't kill Redcloak.
I just get that feeling that Redcloak is going to untimely die...Last edited by Roc Ness; 2010-01-27 at 05:55 PM.

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
This may be because I've been watching the Rifftrax for Lord of the Rings, but for a brief moment, I thought they were gathered for Redcloak's birthday party.

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
First, yes I agree that not all of them would fit in the sewer, and it would make too little sense to line them all up in the sewer and search a dedicated spot (though I would not put that line of thought anywhere past Xykon either).
However, remember Xykon did not see where the phylactery went after falling inside the manhole, and he does consider the ocean as a possibility. Remember he would not destroy himself to re-generate next to it in the event that it was swallowed by a sea creature.
So even if only a handful of them would fit in the sewers, I would expect a mass of them combing the whole coast of Azure city.
Then again, how many legions would you need to.... ah crap!I prepared stinking runes this morning!

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Huh, I just noticed that the Hello-Kitties on MitD's umbrella have FANGS.
I find it odd that MitD is being used for something as menial as pulling curtains. He used to be Xykon's secret weapon, and now it's like he's just a groupie whom everybody either ignores or tries to find something for him to do.
So, it is official: Redcloak is now one-eyed like his late brother. Is that whom he's addressing in the mirror? I haven't seen Start of Darkness, so I don't know what their relationship was like. Or is he just psyching himself up (presumably Xykon forbid him from regrowing his eye with magic, as punishment for his failure.)
And I really hope that last joke wasn't a reference to what I think it was (but after the one with Haley and the Purple Worm, I cannot completely disregard it.) To me, cheap sex jokes are a sign of running out of good ones.Opinions are like butts- everybody has got one, but nobody thinks theirs stinks.

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Hey, is that Jirix I see in the 4th panel, on the right, stating that Redcloak is in his study? Xykon did want him raised after-all, and that hobgoblin does appear to have the same holy-symbol as he did.

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
I feel like we're seeing some foreshadowing that someone in this set of panels is going to die.
I have seen "It's curtains for you!" as a metaphor for "Time for you to die".

he's going to tell them to get out and away from Xykon while they still can, in an amazing amount of deja-vu from SoD

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Huh maybe that's what he sees. Right-Eye telling him it'll be worth it to cut his ties with Xykon

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Or he's trying to convince HIMSELF it's worth it, and the reference to his brother is the fact that he lost the eye in the first place?

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
Yes, but that scene also shows that this is getting harder and harder and that RC needs to convince himself again and again that it makes sense, and is worth it.
By the way, I do not think we'll see some major anti-Xykon rebellion by Redcloak soon. IMHO this is just a small beginning of what will be a long, gradual (and painful) character development.

Re: OOTS #701 - The Discussion Thread
I've thought for a while that the only reason Redcloak is still sane at this juncture in time is that he has been able to keep some things secret from Xykon. Now I'm almost dead certain. Xykon's posed to discover those very secrets, and Redcloak's taken to addressing the dead man whose face accuses him every time he looks into a mirror.
He is losing it. It's only a matter of time before he cracks.Last edited by B. Dandelion; 2010-01-28 at 02:13 AM.
