No, Luana is just a priestess. Dominic is God. His priestess. We'll then get the reveal that she was a Travoria ancestor.

I am the prophet Luana Travoria! "Omg! What a TWEEST!"
I fully expect something that stupid next friday when she finally gets around to mentioning her full name.

Not unless it's bad that I went back specifically to rewrite a perfectly decent sentence for a terrible reference three people would get.

A while back, I had pretty much all the panels for "The House that Drips Blood on Dominic" (starring Dommy Wiseau) picked out in my head. It would have been a grand strip-slay for the ages. Unfortunately, effort is hard, so I'll just let the "Dommy Wiseau" pun stand on its own, and let the rest of you try to not imagine Dominic's dialogue in Tommy's voice. It's not easy.

I am so afraid of this happening. Especially if she need Dominic to "rescue" her because she is too weak to do it herself. If that happens, Mookie will have proved he hasn't learned anything about his flaws in writing.

What I'm afraid of is that Luna is the reincarnation of her. Put on the necklace and whammo, Super Luna.
She would look better than Greg in Spandex though.

Re: Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire, Mk. XLIV: Stunt Bro and Hella Jayden
Luna being the Orc Messiah AND the reincarnation of the Luanian Prophet? I think that's too much Sue even for Mookie.

You just HAD to say this!
Don't you know that what you said here has the same effect of "at least it can't get any worse"?
And even if not like that, Luna WILL become more Sue. Unless Mookie forget it, there is still the issue of the super-fertile-non-fertile eggs, that will somehow make her the mother of all or something like that.

Re: Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire, Mk. XLIV: Stunt Bro and Hella Jayden
Plus Luna's the most naturally talented researcher in Quiral and is slated to be the next archmage.
I don't think Mookie's going to do the Luna <-> Luana thing because it's both too out there and too obvious. But we're likely to get something wackier.

I thought she already sorta was an archmage? At least now there will be a race between her and nimmel and we can see which is stronger, lunas Sue status that lets her be the best at everything, or the fact that nimmel is a guy. It would probably be closer if they were studying together. Of course then luna would get stuck at some point and nimmel would solve her problem for her, allowing her to be the next archmage while its only because the man helped her.

If for some reason Mookie decides to go with the reincarnation angle, it'll be so bad it's hilarious, which I think DD has been sorely lacking as of late. :smalltongue:

Nowhere near stupid enough. Friday's cliffhanger is going to be Luana saying, "It's so good to finally see you after all these years," as she takes off her cowl and we cut to Dominic looking shocked. Monday's comic reveals that Luana is LUNA FROM THE FUTURE!

NO! Its even WORSE! "Oh father! I have waited so long to finally see you! You are just like Momma Luna described!" That way we get the mega confusion of somehow he and luna had a kid, who is from the future, that went back in time, and became the prophet luana, and is communicating with dom in the present to let him know something, and yet wasnt able to do so before because mumble mumble That should buy mookie at least 3 weeks worth of monologue head style comics to fully explain, (and yet not explain anything) with a different cliffhanger each friday as yet another tweest gets explained in a shocking manner.

I swear I read a story like that once when I was a kid. I have absolutely no idea what it was called, but the big climax at the end had the main character going back in time, pretending to be their major religious figure, and ending up actually turning out to BE their major religious figure.
I can't remember if I thought it was stupid or not when I was a kid. But yeah, I'm totally reminded of that.

Something with a similar premise was Let's Go to Golgotha. Time-traveling tourists went back to ~30 AD, and blended into crowds condemning Jesus, but then the main characters realized that the crowds were nothing but time-tourists.
I remember being confused and nonplussed.

Oh man, I had forgotten about the eggs. They're probably going to figure into this somehow. Probably King DJ is after them because of their amazing power.

How else can King DJ build his army of super clones?
(His previous attempt to rule the world with a clone army failed. It turned out it wasn't a smart move to base the template off Stunt.)

Worse, he tried to make clones of himself.
While powerful, it's hard to conquer anything with clones that don't even bother to leave the palace and do anything.
After three weeks they all died because no one agreed to go out and buy groceries.

Re: Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire, Mk. XLIV: Stunt Bro and Hella Jayden
There Are Four Dominics!
Seriously, this counting book is messed up (Future Link)
More meaphysical nonsense. At least Luana's being portrayed with more status than Dominic.
Side rant: is anyone else bugged by that particular hand gesture Luana's doing with her right hand (on our left)? It isn't so bad in this case because Luana's all spirital-like, but DD characters do this gesture all the time. Try doing it yourself - it's so unnatural. It's like everyone in DD is constantly making shadow puppets.

You're a bit too quick to jump. The legend is Luana is the First Seer because she saw a vision of God. This fits: first she was Luana Croft and discovered ancient ruins and learned their secrets, then she became a seer so she could have a squiz at the head honcho upstairs.
And now we're going to get the rest of the week to painfully spell this out. :smallsigh:
I'm curious as to whether either of the two, Dom or Luana, will ask the most obvious question: who wrote the message? I'm thinking someone has to, but with DD anything can be ignored.

Re: Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire, Mk. XLIV: Stunt Bro and Hella Jayden
And what is with the multiple Dominics? Is Mookie trying to be artsy with the mindscape/whatever the heck this is again? Dominic has never made multiple versions of himself in previous oracle sessions so Mookie is muddling up the consistency of his magic system again. It doesn't even make sense in context, Dom is not scrying several things at once, he is just looking at Luana, all 4/5 of him.

I believe the reason there are all these Dominics is that he's now like the Starstone Bracelet, a chain of interconnected Dominic stones.
Using the impeccable logical theory of Acibecus we can deduce that:
1) Dominic's stones are like stars.
2) aka, they are soon going to explode in a mighty flash.
3) Maybe Dominic should have gone through with the Alterist treatment while he had the chance?
.
.
.
23) Scarecrow Dominics are worth their weight in diamonds.

"Destroyed.... by our own complacency... Who could have foreseen such a thing? Certainly not us blind-archmage seers..."
I wonder if Mookie actually thinks anyone cares about DJ Callan. The guy has been a complete non-entity, it's really hard for people to feel threatened by that.
E: Just read the new comic.
I see Mookie is rapidly trying to cover up the fact his time line makes no sense. Perhaps if he had actually worked out a timeline ahead of time, this wouldn't be so stupid.
Lol, I kind of like this actually. So she's the Prophet Luana, had a vision from god, founds a religion, goes on a pilgrimage, finds ruins, sees a message from an ancient culture that kinda contradicts what she teachs, and dies.
Sounds like a sucky way to go though, all disillusioned with your beliefs.

It looks more like an "art" choice than something with an actual meaning.
We're getting talking heads with splash pages.
This is going to take forever...
