Redcloak's failed characterization, and what it means for the comic as a whole.

[B. Dandelion]

latest example: Tsuikiko anti deus ex machina, wiping her from the comic out of the blue, with the original intention of T actually being lampshaded! (So, giant didn't even try to obscure what he was doing (except of perhaps for hardcore OOTS regulars, who'd ignore a "mea culpa"-lampshade even if it slaps them in the face) but outrightly honestly implied "look, originally i wanted to do this, but it just didn't work out, so i plainly executed a major char deus ex style").

What "original intention" are you referring to?

I can guess, but if you mean she was actually meant to successfully replace Xykon and/or Redcloak in the ritual... you don't mean that, do you? Seriously?
