    I'm not sure if this fits, but here I go.

    Does anyone notice how the story of the song Afterlife is really similar to Roy's adventure in the, well, Afterlife?

    On topic, I noticed recently that despite lying on the ground injured, V is smiling immediately before Leeky's trees are destroyed by thunder in #352. So presumably he knew what was about to happen, even though strictly speaking what happened shouldn't be possible.

    I always thought Belkar was bald. Then I hit the Sexy Shoeless God of War strip, noticed he had strips of orange hair. Went back to the beginning and realized it was there all the time.
    Now if you don't mind, I am somewhat preoccupied telling the laws of physics to shut up and sit down.

    Wow, that's pretty cool, i mean, it wasn't extremely close, but they do say about "no time," and wanting to be back alive, but i would think most dead people would want that, were there any other references i missed?
    There's now one less gnome for the Resistance to fight, right?
    The Resistance isn't at war with the gnome!!!
    Well of course not, not anymore. He's dead.

    Well, there's also the thing about the guy remembering that he's has things he has to do on earth. Roy's exactly the same.

    Same thing in strip 87, last panel.
    Wether or not it should be called Medusa or Gorgon, I don't know.

    In that same strip, there's a piece of toilet paper on Durkon's foot.

    Not the most significant, but it made me chuckle, and I've technically never noticed it before.

    Elan's right, but he's also wrong.

    I always thought that there should have been a gap between the gorgon and its victim, meaning the orc wasn't advancing due to being petrified, delaying the line even more.

    I just noticed that in strip 47 Nale mentions that water isn't one of the three sigil elements, and then in the last panel of strip 276 the builders mention that they're cutting out the water dungeon and the ceilings won't be reinforced to prevent, say, sylphs made of stone from falling through the floor to the level before.

    The bunny is part of the monster. It's called a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing. It looks like a cute little rabbit sitting on a tree stump until you get close.

    That's probably the reason the brother exists.

    Because people over analysed it based on the character's ages, and concluded it couldn't be Julia.

    You see, there's your problem: a semi-colon would convey your point much better. (because of aerodynamics....) (and, y'know, actually having a point....)
