OOTS #298 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

Wednesday's comic is up.

[Dhavaer]

"Hello, fellow Medium sized creature...' Bwaha!

[rosebud]

Things I loved:

- The audio track of the strip. :) (Along with the timing. Sort of industrial.)
- Xcccc! (Awwwwww. =))
- Celia and the color blue. Is she aiming for Roy or someone else?
- Poor Hinjo. I hope he gets to spend at least some time with Roy.
- Lollipop!
- Intended or not, the references of "no loose plot points" and (as above) the complaint about blue.
- The swordsmith's smile at the end. =D
- Only one more strip until #300!

[Edit: Added a few more things.]

[wagemage]

-First page, first time.

[Evik]

Hello, fellow Medium-sized creature.

[taigen]

I must say thanks for the comic... was great! Kept me up doing my job (ebay related) for much longer so can relax a bit tomorrow. I must say I am a fan of the Celia - Roy thing... and the cute Genasi children that just may result!

Good Night OOTS world

-Taigen

ps I think I already translated the the Crypto... um... I think x = a and c = h! (ok heavy sarcasm there)

[Zoe]

lol it may be hot

[EnshiMay]

Guess it doesn't take roy long to look at a greatsword.

and nice to see Elan got the Lollipop.

[Chlodwig]

Doing oath on still glowing swords is fun :)

Hmm, whom is Celia going to impress? :)

[tothecornfield]

I hope Elan didn't use his gift certificate for the lollipop. Awesome comic though.

Oh yeah it's my first first page woot!

[faeline]

WOOT YAY!!!

Hahahaha I like how the sequences move :P Soon will be Linear guild versus OotS!!!

*anticipate*

Edit: Woot! First page! First time!

[Pvednes]

*sings*

The hours approaching, just give it your best
You got to reach your prime.
That’s when you need to put yourself to the test,
and show us a passage of time,
We're going to need a montage (montage)
Oh it takes a montage (montage)

Sure a lot of things happing at once,
Remind everyone what’s going on (what’s going on?)
And when every shot you show a little improvement
Just Show it or it will take to long
that’s called a montage (montage)
Oh we want montage (montage)

And anything that we want to know, from just a beginner to a pro,
You want a montage (montage)
even Rocky had a montage (montage)

(Montage…montage)

Anything that we want to know, from just a beginner to a pro,
You need a montage (montage)
Oh it takes a montage (montage)

Always fade out in a montage,
If you fade out, it seem like more time
Has passed in a montage, montage...

[siobharek]

It's amazing how you can build up a sense of timing and anticipation like that. Very nice comic!

[Bakta]

Belkar always craks me up.

I just daydream about what he's up about next.

Now, Miko...

[AintThatASeamus]

Great comic! I'm so happy to see the Linear Guild again. I love me some villains in this strip. Also, good news for all the Roy/Celia 'shippers out there I guess, or at least more fodder for them.
"How are you enjoying being Medium-sized like me, on this lovely day?" Priceless!

[Midnight Son]

The Linear Guild returns!

Dun Dun Dun!

[Krytha]

Holy wow! What an awesome comic! Its a lucky thing that the double comic came through... I think it actually heightens the effect rather than ending one day with a CLANG...

Is Celia trying on dresses for Roy? Please say it is so! and Belkar... hahahahahaaaa

[schmikey]

WOW! What a brilliant...CLANG...idea. Nice work, sir. My hat's off to you!

[Kaerou]

Hello fellow medium sized creature! How are you enjoying being medium sized, like me? =)

hehe.. i guess i'm a fan of the silly jokes..!

[SirGalrim]

Perhaps the most cimatic strip so far.
I like it!

[AtomicKitKat]

Nothing like an industrial soundtrack courtesy of a secondary industry, like somebody said. ;D

I'm just surprised Roy didn't take a few practice swings with it, just to get used to the weight.
*spoilerish*
Cue Tetsusaiga comedy.

[Kalatash]

While I hate for my post to be pointing out an error, there is something very wierd I just saw: In the first panel, it seems that hte line that indicates the seperation of wall and floor goes in FRONT of the anvil.

Fixed.

[mipers]

Very nice execution of a double comic. I get a very cinematic feeling when reading it, anticipation rising with every stroke of hammer on anvail.

Also "Ow" = extra funny.

[RebelRogue]

Very nice one, indeed. Not so much funny as it is tension-building (well, that doesn't mean it isn't funny, though). Can't wait for what will happen in #300!

[Ilover_Juventad]

Great comic! Loved it.

-IJ

[Tanaar]

Very cool format for this sort of 'culminating' strip.

Even more kudos than usual, o Giant!

[Kalatash]

Fixed.

Wow, that was quick. O_o
