[The Giant]

New comic is up.

[Vulion]

Nice comic. Love Lien's dialogue.

[expirement10K14]

"You'll have to find a way to travel back in time before my Junior Prom."

Amazing. Keep up the Good work Giant.

[aapje]

Hehe, gotta love that orc priest hat

[North]

Took me two reads to figure out he meant Banjo not Haley. I had to go back and see the puppet to realize it. Also heh, at the Liens comments.

[silverarrows]

Nice...
Return of Banjo the Clown!

[Jayngfet]

V's a jerk.

[doctordestiny]

Haha Junior Prom. And I wonder what kind of experiments V has in mind? She seemed to be going kind of cuckoo.

[SlightlyEvil]

Good one, Lien seems like a character with a lot of potential. Also, I hope V gets more character development soon than "I haven't slept and I'm crabby about it.

[Remirach]

I hope y'all are prepared for a thousand "what's V's alignment?" threads 'cause this is definitely throwing fuel on that fire. Just let her die, you can raise her, it's not my problem.

[Retief]

Great comic-classic Elan.

[malakim2099]

Nah, Lien's not a ho. She was just a teenager before she got her paladin calling.

Though V's behavior is somewhat surprising to me, considering the effort he put forth on behalf of Azure City during the battle. Not a change for the better, nor really one for the good of the Stick.

[Mauve Shirt]

We won't leave TWO of our own behind again!!!

I hope y'all are prepared for a thousand "what's V's alignment?" threads 'cause this is definitely throwing fuel on that fire. Just let her die, you can raise her, it's not my problem.

*sigh* So true

[LordVader]

Another great comic, and great to see Banjo back! Some great dialogue, too. Well done, Giant!

[stsasser]

Witness the wisdom of Banjo!

[DanShive]

V needs some spa treatment, STAT.

[fractal]

I've always thought that that was V's alignment. Vaarsuvius has never gone particularly out of his/her way to help people, note the dirt farmers.

Regarding Lien, I'm not sure why she wouldn't run away. It's not like she has any particular reason to be attached to Banjo.

Speaking of Banjo, this human sacrifice definitely gives the puppet a darker tinge. I mean, who would ever expect that a toy clown wanted to kill people? I guess they're Orthodox Banjoists.

[Chazzie]

Well, elves don't sleep, remember? And I have no idea if they get cranky from not trancing...

I think it's more to do with being away from Haley for so long. V's feeling lost since he only really connected with her and maybe Roy. He's also let his vanity go because of it as well. I feel bad for him.

[HUMVEE Driver]

Finally! This truly has been just what I think they needed. I can't believe it! The characters are acting just as they should, and this story is
running as it should. Something in the far back of my mind are the very silly predictions spouted by the Oracle. I assume they will all come
true, but have any come true already?

Personally, I'm still kinda idlely wondering what happened the Linear Guild, and who can forget Helga? (I think tha was 'er name) They’ll be in the
game again. (Dwarf speak intentional) They will refill their depleted ranks, even if it means more OoTS clones.

[Aurorax]

At least Elan has his priorities straight. I mean, you have to save the god first, right?

[Yendor]

All work and no rest make Vaarsuvius go crazy.

[Morgan Wick]

Interesting. Not only are Haley, Celia, and Belkar growing apart, not only are those three separated from V, Elan, and Durkon, not only is Roy dead, but now V's obsession on finding Haley is separating him/her from Durkon and Elan. Roy may return to find the OOTS together but in shambles.

[Szilard]

That was a good comic.

[Blaznak]

Its great that a stick figure is going to draw a line in the sand...

[Alex Warlorn]

First one to punch V' in the back of the head gets a nice shinny copper piece.

This elf is True Neutral in it's purest form.

Also, this is why love should not be expressed in it's purest form until AFTER marriage.

[dogmac]

V....

Stop it V. You are my favourite character. But right now, you are being a jerk. Stop it, or else V!!

Poor Lien. Don't you hate it when your mother is right?

[Jonathan327]

...so if Banjo could pull off the minor shock on Roy when only Elan followed him, with a full tribe behind him...think he might actually end up in Odin's Pantheon?

[silvadel]

Uhoh -- V -- watch out -- that path leads to the dark side.

[Ruduen]

And now, the Banjoists get more commandments. Or, something.

Still, V's going to be off doing research while the people who have to make the plans are...

Does anybody know Daigo's Intellegence? I think that's probably the best chance that the group will come up with a usable plan. Otherwise... yikes.

[Timberboar]

As a proponent of the turtle-in-a-cage theory, I find myself disappointed.
