OOTS #1036 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

New comic is up.

[factotum]

Well, I think there can be only one reaction to that last panel: dun dun DUNNNN!

[waccio]

And thus, the mystery ends!

Regular Size Hobgoblin.

[Kantaki]

So, I guess Bugbears and the have been „recruited” by Reddy and Co.

Oh and the MitD has a new umbrella.

[Quild]

Ooooh, Wrong-Eye's back. Also MitD <3

I first thought it was his niece :-

[AvatarVecna]

Guess that clears up the mystery of who this dude was with...and means this wasn't anywhere near the random encounter it originally appeared to be.

[McNum]

Somehow, seeing Redcloak all peaceful like that is worrying.

But, hey! Duckie Umbrella! Sweet!

[Sniper Jo]

And thus, the mystery ends!

Regular Size Hobgoblin.

Is she? I thought Hobgoblins were usually bright orange; she's much more dull in colour.

[ScrapperTBP]

What a great comic. That poor unicorn dragon thing looks so sad

[Mojique]

Missed MitD so much. Nice new umbrella with cute ducks.

[Syldar]

My reaction to the return of team evil)
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

[Syldar]

Also, my bet is that the rider's a bugbear.

[Ivrytwr]

Duckies!!
Thanks Giant.

[Lordchoculla]

New comic is up.

Excellent, thanks!

[nbLurkerAbove]

Great comic, thanks!
I suppose the most important question to ask is how the MitD swapped umbrellas without revealing itself.

[DaOldeWolf]

Redcloak and the monster in the darkness are back! Great!

[Zebasiz]

Great comic, thanks!

Probably went into a dark room to change. Like a bedroom with the lights off. Or the closet~

[Bulldog Psion]

And thus, the mystery ends!

Regular Size Hobgoblin.

I would have said: And thus, the mystery ends! 100% bugbear.

1. She looks bigger than Redcloak to me. Taller, bulkier. Just look at the size of her feet compared to Redcloak's.
2. She has a hunched-over build unlike the upright stance of the Hobgoblins.
3. She's got face fur.
4. She's very clearly tan and the hobgoblins are very clearly bright orange.

[Elenna]

Huh, actually saw this in time to be on the first page for once

In any case: Wooo, MiTD is back! And nice to know that the rider did come from Xykon after all. (Lien's pessimism has failed her! )

EDIT: The title confuses me. Is it just stating that MiTD is not a duck?

[Peelee]

Damn, but that all's pretty.

So I'm guessing Oona was a scout who happened to find the paladins, and the debriefing is gonna shake up Reddie. Don't think he's gonna believe that they died.

Also, this is my first look at Redcloak in the new art. Dude looks badass.

[Troy]

Redcloak? What are you doing here? You should be at the last gate right now!

[zinycor]

Go team evil!! Go!!

[CrispyCriminal]

I have no idea what this comic strip's title is referring to. The umbrella?

[Lvl 2 Expert]

The old umbrella got sued?

I have no idea what this comic strip's title is referring to. The umbrella?

The creature's attack? The intel she's going to report to Redcloack that she killed the paladins?

[KorvinStarmast]

Is Oona a character who has been previously introduced?
Is Oona a bugbear? (For some reason, it being the northern arctic area of OoTS world, I get the idea that a bugbear for polar bear swap might amuse the author".

Given the conversation that MiTD had with Redcloak and Xykon, and O'Chul now actually being on the way to the gate, what will MiTD's reaction be when Oona reports the defeat of two paladin's by drowning/freezing/sonicking?

Stay tuned, for the next exciting episode of (characters who are not actually in the) Order of The Stick!

[Peelee]

I, too, am confused.

[Quibblicious]

Dang, I thought that was *my* line...


Q

[Draconium]

Yay, we get to see more of Team Evil! They may be horrible people bent on conquering the world, but I kind of missed them. And awesome new umbrella, MitD.

[Kish]

Redcloak? What are you doing here? You should be at the last gate right now!

I continue to be mystified that people ever thought Redcloak and Xykon were just going to be able to stroll up to the last gate.

Redcloak is, of course, preparing spells for the day.

[Psyren]

+1 Bugbear. Also, in addition to the verbal intel, it looks like Oona has a crossbow bolt complete with bright blue fletching to tip off Reddy.

Thirded, this one lost me Is it the right title?
