[The Giant]

New comic is up.

By the way, at the risk of jinxing it, it seems like the server is running smoothly today. Thanks to Ray and the crew at the ISP for fixing the problem.

[Deuce]

Dig the cat, nice Bloefield touch . . . :)

[Flippy]

Great comic again giant! Elan just totally kicks ass once again, in a way comparable to the great "Wow Roy, you're not just a psychic, you're a future psychic!" comic.

[Karellen]

Ah, sadness, Lord Shojo isn't a sweet little girl. Well, sleeping old guys with secret awesome powers are cool too.

[Greebo]

I'm somewhat disappointed...

... after Thog got to use Rocket Skates, I was looking forward to the lazer beam eyed robot. ;)

[Greebo]

Yeah...um...somehow I don't think even Elan will go that far. :D

[Sc00by]

Oh I really wanted Roy to be right! He'd have been even better as a female Horse! ;)

[Karellen]

Incidentally, do I sense a measure of satire in this strip over the incessant speculation and debate over who and what Lord Shojo is? ;)

[Eriol]

Soon didn't have a goatee, but I still say it's him.

Interesting...

[jogom]

shhh, or you will awake mighty lord Shojo

[Sylvius]

There are times, like this one, when Elan very much reminds me of Noober.

[Deuce]

Oh I really wanted Roy to be right! He'd have been even better as a female Horse! ;)

Or maybe a half-orc - half-elf halfling with half an eyepatch? Or is that idea to half-brained? :)

[themob212]

I wanted a vampire horse personly or even better a vamparic tree! Lets see durkon react that that one

[Antina]

Oh paleeze.... let the cat be lord shojo... :(

[Omellette]

Nooooo, Giant would NEVER do that! Never, ever, ever, ever...

;D ::) ;D

/sarcasm

[themob212]

Oh paleeze.... let the cat be lord shojo... :(

Yes a vamparic cat!

[Antina]

GOOD ONE! Really really GOOD one!!! :)

[Malachi, the Lich King]

New comic is up.

Thank you.

I'm not having any difficulties today. Actually, its running faster for me than it ever has so the improvements seem to be working for the nonce anyway. RawBear kicks.

[Antina]

Yes a vamparic cat!

Cool - let´s go into details, maybe the giant has mercy on us and the old man turns out to be the familiar.(for security-assassin reasons: Belkar comes in and kils the old man, the cat turns out to be very very pissed and sighs: "Oh my, they turn not to last as long as in the good old days...)
;D

[Reaver225]

Wow. That is one heck of a lot of venerablism in one person.

[theKOT]

Shojo does bear a resemblance to Soon, Same moustache thingy and similar clothes. I also noted the nod to the endless speculation that takes place in the approx. 48-72 hours between strips. I loved Roy's line about "sent from the future to punish us". Now for the happy two minutes before I start counting the hours till friday....
[edit] man, that was one disjointed post....

[themob212]

;D

Or he is the chair after belkar stabs both the man and the cat!

[Saxov]

Dig the cat, nice Bloefield touch . . . :)

Bloefield.. ? I thought about Godfather....
Don Shojo... :)
"i see, you have problem... you come to me with this problem, eeh... I'll make the problem disapear..." :D

[Lady_Orc]

Dig the cat, nice Bloefield touch . . . :)

Oh gods yes, that was the first thing I thought of. Hope there's not a shark tank nearby.

[Duraska]

Let's have a 12 page discussion on whether or not his cat is a robotic kitty. Oh, and what alignment do you think his cat is? :)

(If I know cats - and trust me, I do - it's chaotic neutral!)

[Deuce]

I love the "dramatic" lighting of the room (yes, seen before with Shojo and Miko). He must of had a Bard design his lighting set-up.

[SITB]

For some strange reason I keep picturing this:

Roy:"Do you expect me to talk?"
The cat:"No Mr.Greenhilt, I expect you to die."

[Mumle_Master]

Or maybe an old man took his chair, and next strip the real Shojo steps in?...

[NEO|Phyte]

For some strange reason I keep picturing this:

Roy:"Do you expect me to talk?"
The cat:"No Mr.Greenhilt, I expect you to die."

:D

[soozenw]

Oh paleeze.... let the cat be lord shojo... :(

you know..that is EXACTLY what i thought. ;D
