OOTS #300 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

Well ,there you have it: the last comic for what will be the second book. These last two Xykon strips will be set as an "epilogue" after Roy's dramatic montage sequence to end the proper story. Hope you guys enjoyed it.

[Bosh]

and it is finally upon us! rejoice!

bwaa ha ha die stuck-up paladins! die!

[Reivas_Genocai]

I loved the Hobgoblin jokes

But that last thing was utterly amazing, that would make a great wallpaper.

[Albion]

What a return! He sure knows how to reappear in style. Nice! Hehe. It reminds me of the witch king in LotR a little bit, in a good way - I see LotR connections whever there's a hint of fantasy. (Just because you see or invent a "connection" between two good things doesn't mean anything negative.)

Hehe, Redcloak is rising to the occasion and can be taken seriously? I'm afraid of him now. :-[ Mr. X has made a true villain out of him. ;) I guess they've been working together so long that it isn't so up-tight. Only natural in a basic typical day-to-day working relationship like this, eh...

Well executed I say I say... looks great. Ta ta ra taa! Death! Pillage! Rape! War! Destruction! Famine! Murder! Et cetera!
Just to celebrate #300, I've edited this post like 10-20 times. Tee hee!

Final Edit: Just to make sure I wasn't accusing anybody of "borrowing" things - that would've been idiotic in this case!

[trebane]

Sweeeeeeeeeeet. We're headed towards final confrontation goodness.

Its looking great, Giant. Please, keep it up for another 300 (at least). ^_^

[schmikey]

Wow, you really are a dork, aren't you.

Can't tell you how many times I've heard that one.

;D

[mimicgogo]

I certainly agree that it would make an amazing wallpaper...Please?

So what kind of dragon did that used to be? I busted out my copy of Draconimicon, but it didnt help much...

When can we expect the second book to be available? Still by GenCon I hope?

[Efogoto]

Hope you guys enjoyed it.

Every strip. And looking forward to many more for that much more enjoyment.

And I'll be buying the second book when it comes out.

Thanks Rich!

[radishlaw]

a war is coming eh?
well done, giant. I can't wait to see the next story arc
It'll be a blast! (pun intended?)

[ekedolphin]

Wow, Redcloak's really gaining a spine, huh?

Good to see that it's "the end of the story arc", which says to me "the end of Book 2 or 3". Yay, now let's see them books!

And by the way, first page, yay and all that jazz. ;)

[Sampi]

Awesome comic, Rich!

I sorta could see this one coming, but man, this is gonna be so good! I can't wait to see all the azure city- eople fighting alongside the OOTS!

And great devilroaches as well.

[Dhavaer]

WOW! That last frame looks FANTASTIC!

[koumdros]

Damn i was hoping they would finally get out of this damned city :)



first page? from the tiem i saw the new thread till i goti it there were like 20 answers! I thought for sure I would hit 3rd page or soemthing :)
niiicee

[Death, your friend the Reaper]

That is such a cool dragon!

[wagemage]

The corpse gag was good, I thought maybe a rebuttle to use the corpses would have been appropriate, just my 2 cents. Otehr tan that I must say I like the flying dead dragon. If this is also on teh first page, Yeah

[Barazon]

Ooooo! The end of a story arc!

This one was a lot of fun, especially the "ship made of hobgoblin corpses".

[BlackFurredBeast]

Wow, just wow!

The last panel is posteriffic!

[Vampire_Boy]

Very impressive! :D

Of course, now I can look forward to Xykon annihilating Miko along with the other defenders of the Azure City and turning her into his undead servant! Undead Miko! That would be SO COOL! :D

[dwaro]

The hobgoblin's shoulders in the first strip in every panel seem to be transparent. As well as every hogoblin's torso and shoulders in the second strip.

[CarpeAmentum]

I would have to agree, that last panel would make an excellent wallpaper. Looking forward to the next season, err story arc.

[jmaccabeus]

*rubs simian eyes*

Now that's an evil horde. Looks like the fun's about to start!

[chefs_slaad]

cool. The end of a story arch.

And time for a new comic I should think eh?

[Antina]

Wow - *sniff* "My little" Redcloak finally grew up... ;)

What about the selling & shipping of the 2nd book?
Will it be available via amazon.com (then hopefully amazon.de too) ?

Can´t wait to get my fingers on the next book - but this time with less trouble - PRETTY PLEASE?

[Albion]

Wow - *sniff* "My little" Redcloak finally grew up... ;)

Yah! That is so touching. ;D

Ooooo! The end of a story arc!

This one was a lot of fun, especially the "ship made of hobgoblin corpses".

Agreed, that was the best part. ;D Xykon brings a unique touch to the comic.

[Alternator]

Page two isn't bad for my first topic posted in.

[The Giant]

The hobgoblin's shoulders in the first strip in every panel seem to be transparent. As well as every hogoblin's torso in the second strip.

Weird, I didn't notice that before. I'll see if I can fix it, it might take a while...

[Lord Herman]

Awesome last page! Now start the magical comic-book-o-matic so I can have my book by next week.

[Castamir]

I would have to agree, that last panel would make an excellent wallpaper.

Too bad it's in the portrait layout, not landscape. Thus, the last panel makes a good poster but a bad wallpaper. However, I believe we can trick Rich into doing some fan service...

[Pvednes]

Aw, man, that is awesome. :D

Xykon's made himself a kickass comeback.

[trebane]

So what kind of dragon did that used to be? I busted out my copy of Draconimicon, but it didnt help much...

If I remember correctly, they killed a silver on their way into the castle.

Yep.... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in 195, you can see a dead silver (or somewhat matte gray-ish?) dragon being poked by hobgoblins.

And now this lucky silver is the winged mount for the BBEG who leads a fresh and powerful ARMY OF DARKNESS!
