OOTS #322 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

So about an hour after I posted that the comic would be done by 5:00 am, my laptop decided it would be fun for the screen to go completely black. I couldn't fix it on my own, and it was 3:00 am, so I went to bed instead. I took it as the universe's way of telling me to go sleep. I called tech support this morning, though, and got it working. The comic is thus now up.

[Tawkis]

I love this reference to those stupid lollipops.

And Belkar's "sweet" revenge, now back to the world cup..... go USA.

[Saldron]

haha awsome.. sweet revange maybe? XP



edit: upsey someone already said bout the sweet revange.. anyways 1st page!

[Aerysil1]

I hope Belkar realizes he can just expect more explosions.

[Conman815]

First page!
I did it! Yes! Finally!

[Heads_or_Tails]

Too bad about the computer, good comic though.

Edit: Unless V dies. *snip* As this was a prediction I believe that it would be better located elsewhere.

[Pelziges_Ohr]

Yay great one!
Belkar's revenge is great.

One.

Now I wonder what gender V is. Maybe the Owlbear thingy now knows. I also would like to know what Vaarsuvius tastes like.

I can hardly wait for V's revenges revenge, because she prepared explosive runes this morn-

[capnball]

Great comic...it's about time I finally said so!

[Ronald_saveloy]

If V survives this, Belkar is done for!

Oh yes, and there we've got the missing mount!

[Corestimah]

"One" ;D

(1st Page W00T. Yay.)

[Dawnstrider_Moogle]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Well worth the wait! I like it - if Seinfeld was in the D&D universe maybe...

But the last row of panels WINS AT LIFE.

[Eldred]

Haha! ;D Belkar is in for it

[size=0.5]Edit: Just snuck in one 1st page :P[/size]

[molonel]

Finally. Some evil. I am pleased. The dialogue lately has been a little long-winded, but as long as somebody gets eaten by an owlbear, I can forgive that.

[Sabishii_Kouen]

Penguinlion XD

[Damastes]

Yes I was waiting for this. Owlbear is for me the most stupid monster in the Monster manual (first manual of course - later is worse). And first page!

[archivist]

Wise Mr. Owlbear....classic.

Nice work as usual, Giant!

[WNxArrakis]

Tootsie roll pops... great stuff, Giant!

payback for belkar..

[MrMe]

Well, he did kiss V... I think s/he deserved some revenge.

[Pantler]

I was, like, sitting here for the last 2 hours and missed the first page. Darn. :)

Ooh, is Vaarsuvius gonna be *akhem* mad... Am I the only one who sees an escalation of violence? Where's it gonna end??

[Voshkod]

Great minds think alike, as I am reminded of the first entry at this page.

"Watch out for the hawklion! Beware the vulturetiger! Don't worry too much about the sparrowspaniel!"

[baltor85]

Obligitory second page woot! Wow, I've only been here, what, 4 days, and already got the second page! Nice job on the comic, giant, it's hilarious. I wonder how mad that'll make V.

[Feste]

Bugger...

Belkar isn't being the most helpful, is he?

[Scion_of_the_Light]

No, not V! A good cure spell better be able to fix this, OR ELSE!

[Elurindel]

Nooooo! I was hoping to get first post! nevermind. I'll go read the comic now.

[Aysel]

Heh, the irony of this is in the campaign setting of the Neverwinter Nights Persistant World I used to play on: Fu'Miga's Saga, we have an answer for the owlbear.

From http://www.sagathian.com/the_world/m...ian_queen.html :

Time passed, days turned to weeks; and Mîrwen studied the wonderful animal; but despite her fascination with him, she did not forsake the other animals, for each day two came to visit her. *These visits caused unholy envy and jealousy to begin to simmer within Vecna, leading to the macabre ideas to grow in his mind. At first, his jealously was only a whisper; baring of his claws and teeth at the other animals, but as his feelings for Mîrwen increased, so did his jealously; and he began to rake his claws into the animals that dared visit the beautiful elf woman. His envy soon came to a peak, and as he sat upon his black throne, a devilish plan formed in his mind. *It came to him that it was the law of the forest for animals to fight other animals; and though nature had no say in what would survive, he could. *A wicked smile crept upon his face as he put his hands to living clay and modeled the monstrosities that he would send to prey upon the animals that dared to be between himself and his precious Mîrwen. He built an army of the creatures in the weeks that came; they surpassed the height of three full-grown elves and they resembled gray bears in appearance, force and ferocity, but at the core, they were more akin to the owl; bearing the innate gifts of a predator, great cunning, swiftness, and eyes that helped them see their prey even at night. For this duality of being, they became known as owlbears.

[Farmino]

Nice comic, Giant. I love it when Belkar comes out on top ;D

[kamikasei]

That's odd as hell. I made this exact argument yesterday on seeing an owlbear pic. "Who thought it would be a net win to mix a fearsome bear with a harmless owl?"

I'm getting my tinfoil hat out of storage... damn thought-stealin' Giants...
