[The Giant]

New comic is up.

[Linkavitch]

Nice comic Giant! The last panel was the best!

[Lira]

Aw damn. I still hope Kubota will die somehow. Soon.

Good comic though, I loved the punchline.

[North]

Stupid lawful good court systems.

[Szilard]

Heh, loved the end.

[Rogue 7]

Ninja Elan!

Glad to see that Kubota's not going to get off scot-free. He hasn't had a chance to destroy evidence, plenty of witnesses, etc. etc. He's pretty much done.

[Guchalez]

nice comic, i was specting elan to attack but he's good so he didn't
cool that he hit kubota anyway

[CTrombley]

This is precisely what I thought would happen.

That's never a good sign!

[Surfing HalfOrc]

Go Elan! Kick his arrogant butt!

[Estelindis]

Love the way Kubota waves his arms around in triumph at Elan's impotence to go against his good ideals. Also love the way Elan manages to overcome that impotence ever so slightly. Kubota deserved a punch in the face at the very least. Thanks for the comic, Giant!

[SPoD]

Kubota's "choice" scenario makes a whole lot more sense now: It was made up on the fly. Qarr was supposed to be there to enact whatever his REAL plan was, and didn't show up for some reason. Kubota then bluffed his way through the scene, killing Therkla in the process.

Not bad, for an improvisation.

[Holammer]

Man, this is the evil villain that keeps on giving!

[masonwheeler]

I'm a bit surprised that Elan allowed himself to be beaten by all that "lawful custody" nonsense. He's Chaotic, right?

[HiroProtagonist]

Wow, Kubota really is a manipulative bastard, huh?

[Kaytara]

DAMN IT! Story-wise, I'm pleased that Kubota wasn't finished off just like that. But damn it! Seeing Elan pull a Belkar - "I'm Chaotic." - would've been so damn satisfying!

And another update so soon. Woot. ^^

[Warren Dew]

So is Kubota facing forward while rowing a mistake, or is it a commentary on how he's unfamiliar with menial tasks?

[SPoD]

I'm a bit surprised that Elan allowed himself to be beaten by all that "lawful custody" nonsense. He's Chaotic, right?

But he's Good first, so killing an unarmed man who has surrendered isn't acceptable.

[Inhuman Bot]

Wow.... Just wow...

[Fawkes]

I love Elan.

[Wreckingrocc]

Panel 3 was freaking epic.

[Mojique]

I'm sure Elan will screw it up. So where is a hungry shark when you need one?

[Enlong]

Aw damn. I still hope Kubota will die somehow. Soon.

Good comic though, I loved the punchline.

Badum-pisssh!

[LuisDantas]

Poor Elan. He just keeps growing frustrated by Kubota's byzantine schemes.

[jmucchiello]

But he's Good first, so killing an unarmed man who has surrendered isn't acceptable.

Doesn't mean he can't let the boat sink. (Well, it does. But still....)

[Atomsized]

Hah, that was great, especially the last few panels.

[skywalker]

Panel 3 was freaking epic.

I love bad-ass Elan!

[Spiryt]

Crap...

Bastard or not, Kubota's pretty awesome.

Or maybe that's wrong word? Anyway, it seems that you don't need class levels to manage with things.

[Ascension]

I'm not sure about the magnificent, but Kubota's a bastard all right.

[teratorn]

Kubota seems finished but Qarr is another story... Where is he?

[Dacia Brabant]

Poor Elan. He just keeps growing frustrated by Kubota's byzantine schemes.

Nah this is pretty straight forward--he's unarmed and alone, he clearly sees Qarr's ace was trumped so his main target, Hinjo, is still alive, so it makes perfect sense to surrender and live to scheme another day.

That's what'll be byzantine, his attempt to weasel out of this mess when it goes to the magistrate.


And wow, fast updates are fast. We're rapidly heading to the conclusion of the story arc here.
