Things you never noticed II: I never noticed the first thread

And this is on page 21 of this thread.

The Giant is amazing with his planning skills.

The large demon's high school classmates are men of wealth and taste.

It's page 28 if you have the standard '15 posts per page' set.

Huh. I'm so used to the page numbers other people talk about not meaning anything to me that I didn't even bother to check, or I would have noticed that archon_huskie has them set the same way I do.

The alligator man is taking a smoke break in the last panel of 391.

The alligator man is taking a smoke break in the last panel of 391.

And that may actually be an A-Team reference--I'm pretty sure Hannibal did that in a quite similar costume.

[Drowlord]

Notice Strip #760, first panel. I didn't get what that meant until I suddenly realized that a "flan" is a type of custard. If the bottom of the E burned out, that would make "flan".

[Hardcore]

the Ranger in the latest strip have extra long(?) boots. Up to the thighs perhaps?

"Shelby" mentioned in #824 is most certainly "Shelby the Dragonslayer"

[The Linker]

Well. Reading today's strip, I noticed the angled perspective in panels 1 through 6 and noted I had seen that before here. I had always waved it (the last panel being angled) off as for, like... composition purposes.

I never realized, well, duh, they're going uphill. Because their base is in the mountains.

Derp.

Either Xykon's phylactery changes color from black to white sometime before the attack on Azure City, or Redcloak is hiding the real one.

I think it's supposed to be a joke on the "captain hook" stereotype. Plus I think there's actually a character in some Disney cartoon named Captain Hook..

Captain Hook is from Peter Pan.

It's page 28 if you have the standard '15 posts per page' set.

You mean 30.

Isn't the color dependent on whether he's inside it at the moment?

Redcloak before Xykon gets blown up.

Phylactery before the attack on Azure City.

It's just a redesign. I think as of strip #414. It's also white throughout all of SoD. In the print of WaXP, it was retroactively redesigned for earlier strips, but he accidentally skipped strip #331, leaving a very minor continuity error because bonus strip #320a has the redesign.

Err. Derp. Not sure how I did that.

[Lvl45DM!]

its 28 on my screen

[The Linker]

Right, but it's 30 posts per page, not 15.

Panel 4

The traitor (intentionally?) missed his shot.

That's AWESOME foreshadowing.

Actually, he didn't miss. He wasn't shooting at the goblin who Eyepatch Chick killed, but at the cleric - look what's sticking out of his forehead in the next panel.

Oh.
Now I feel both stupid and disillusioned.

If you need me, you'll find me crying in the corner.

[ti'esar]

Sorry about that.

[The Linker]

I came close to bringing that up myself, but then I noticed that he shot someone in the sixth panel anyway. It would have been pretty awesome if he had been shown as missing everything.

While looking up references for a debate I'm in, I somehow just now noticed that Azurites use chopsticks.

Even for pancakes, apparently, which must be pretty hard.

Oh, and I just noticed that strip #401 and #720 have the same title.

[Cynric]

I've just noticed that in 662 Tsukiko is wearing slippers. Heh.

[skaddix]

I just realized something. The oracle reminds me of a certain magician from the Xanth series. You go through 3 challenges before you ask your question except in this comic the challenges never change and you pay cash instead of doing a favor.

[Peelee]

So apparently Nui is completely prepared against a literal skeleton crew

[SpaceBadger]

In 824, during the attack in panels 4, 5, and 6, the polymorphed hobgoblin spy w the crossbow manages not to kill any of the hobgoblin group - he fires only one shot, which misses.

Nevermind. I see that it has already been discussed.

[Gift Jeraff]

I never noticed that the 3 resistance groups were colour-coordinated. If you look at their respective redshirts, Haley's group has dark blue belts, Robed Guy's group has light blue belts, and Eyepatch Chick's group has purple belts. Though while typing this I went back and saw that all Azurite soldiers had the same belts as Haley's group, so that probably just means they didn't bother to differentiate themselves, while the other 2 groups did because they hated each other and Haley's group.

in 550, MiTD says no-one round here uses their real names anyway. The two peole who he meets most are Xykon (can't ember what it used to be, but he changed it after killing the prof-X expy) and Readcloak (not his real name)
