OOTS #442 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

New comic is up.

[Theodoxus]

OMG, I love Meteor Swarm!

Plus, Xykon's so cool... I mean, good adventurers are so blase now a days... but villians, with depth and real power to go 'monologue -> death!' Yeah, that's happiness right there.

Thanks Rich!

Hope you're feeling better - though your fevered writing hasn't suffered one bit :)

[AtomicKitKat]

If there were ever any doubt that Caster beats Fighter, dispel them now. :D

[Maryring]

That... has to hurt. Great job Giant.

[Calsan]

Hehe, good one Giant.

Loved the humour.

[RyanJ]

Ouch. Poor Roy. Too LG for his own good.

[MReav]

Well, Roy's kinda boned.

And to think, Xykon was actually employing diplomacy to a situation.

[Wikkin]

Excellent comic and early too! :)

[Alex Knight]

And it looks like Xykon is in this for the fun...."call it a mulligan"?

[piestandsalone]

nice... thats just how good it is

[Conqueso]

Now that's a weekend cliffhanger.

[PirateMonk]

Woo hoo! Blood thirsty halflings will get along fine!

Great comic.

[KayJay]

Ooh, text heavy strip... great :)

[Exeunt]

Bloodthirsty Halflings will probably get along just fine...



*snicker*

Edit : damn you PirateMonk :P

[Swordguy]

Oh, sonova crap. New comic already!

I felt like we'd had this conversation in the comic before - like when lizard-V and the Dragon were discussing the issue of V's hit point total.

The metagaming that Xykon was trying to pull to get Roy off his back was a neat touch too. "Go level up for a while so we can have a good fight".

[ElfLad]

My jaw dropped.

[Wikkin]

Can I get a Feather Fall please!?

[jindra34]

Great are we ever going to have a situation where we Know how the hero survives until the end of the AC seige? i hope so... Roy is going to go splat...

[Aerysil]

Youch.

And see what all of you get for trying to get Rich to take the day off? We get a double strip. Nice going.

[Nightwing]

The best character was

[Kriel]

Lets see here... falling from hundreds of feet in the air after just being hit by a Meteor Swarm, barely hanging onto consciousness, and the knowledge that if the fall doesn't kill you (unlikely), then the hobgoblins below most certainly will kill you. There's only one way out of this for Roy that I can think of that doesn't involve him becoming a bloody smear on the ground below, and he'd better think of it quick.

[Assassinfox]

WHOAMG! Roy cracked Xykon's skull!

[GWLlosa]

That look like a 'signoff speech' to anyone else?

[One Skunk Todd]

Heh, love the Harry Potter scar on Xykon's head now.

But ouchies for poor Roy. On my screen the last panel is just blurry enough that I can't tell if his eyes are X's.

[Wikkin]

Booty talisman time!

[RationalGoblin]

Elflad sums it up for me. Whoa.

Plus, Xykon's awesome as usual! I love philosiphy (sp?) type villains.

Awesome job, Rich!

[Hitorijun]

We vote to give him the day off and he gives an extra long strip. Thanks giant. Now you have all weekend to rest up.

We discussed this a while ago there are two ways out... one involves V the other...

[Silverblaze]

And it looks like Xykon is in this for the fun...."call it a mulligan"?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulligan - Have your pick, but speaking as a golfer AND a roleplayer, I still have to say that golf was around way before Magic the Gathering *GG*

I seem to recall that earlier on in the forum, somebody made a question of whether an Ootser would ever be raised from the dead - I think that Roy might be in for some serious healing here, or he is going to be the first one...

[mstkone]

That is one heckuva strip. Made my afternoon! I wonder what Xykon was trying to say...
