Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
It means that people who are married usually mention it fairly often, and the Giant never mentioned being married. In fact, his oblique references to someone caring for him when he's ill made me think that he wasn't married, since otherwise, why not just say "my wife takes care of me when I'm ill" rather than the nonspecific "somebody". So I'm kind of startled that Mrs. Giant appeared after being totally invisible for many, many years.
To tell the truth, I've been thinking of the Giant as gay (in the non-perjorative sense) since I first started reading this comic many years ago. I was about 100% certain of it until earlier today when I made my first post in this thread, in fact. Hence my momentary surprise.Last edited by Bulldog Psion; 2012-09-20 at 01:09 AM.

So the song runs on, with shift and change,
Through the years that have no name,
And the late notes soar to a higher range,
But the theme is still the same.
Man's battle-cry and the guns' reply
Blend in with the old, old rhyme
That was traced in the score of the strata marks
While millenniums winked like campfire sparks
Down the winds of unguessed time. -- 4th Stanza, The Bad Lands, Badger Clark

He's drawn a cartoon with his wife in it before--check the bottom left comic on this page:

Anyway, get well soon, Rich!

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Heh. The old "glass in the hand" excuse, is it?
Seriously though, that sounds really sucky. Here's to hoping for a full recovery.Awesome fremetar by wxdruid.
From the discomfort of truth there is only one refuge and that is ignorance. I do not need to be comfortable, and I will not take refuge. I demand to *know*.

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
You guys have been so supportive and patient all year and Rich is really frustrated that he's letting you down by making you wait even longer for the stories he's been trying to bring to you.
Now, if only we could get someone to Cure Serious Wounds or Wish the Giant. Anybody up for the task? Mrs. Giant, are you by any chance a Cleric or high-level Wizard?

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Take care of yourself, and don't start comicing again until the hand is fully healed, no matter how much you want to get back to the story.

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Get well soon, Rich! Your health and the ability to do anything but comics again is more important than said comics, no matter how eagerly we're expecting them.

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Well frick. When I first saw this thread I was all "ugh, someone's bringing up his health problems again despite him requesting that they're not*, this won't last long". Then I actually read the news post.
Ouch Here's hoping there's nothing but aesthetic scarring (because scars are cool)!

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Giant,
I hope everything heals up well and you're not in too much pain. I know how much it sucks being told '6 weeks to heal', as I'm currently working through the same time frame for a broken ankle. I'd say get well soon, but just get well is the important bit!

Aww, man! Should have known the universe would target a Giant's reflex save. Get well soon! I'd cast Regenerate on you if I could.

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Thank you for letting us know Mrs. Giant. It is nice to know that Mr. Giant has you to share his journey with.
Here's hoping for a full recovery in however much time as it takes. Put me down as a reader who is content, and doesn't want any perception of obligation to cause someone to rush back into drawing. You hear that sir? :) I buy your stuff, and you owe me nothing! Heal first!

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Glass cuts are nasty. Get well soon, Giant. Get well, and get back to the Playground.
Oh, and almost forgot this:
Heal, heal, heal, heal, heal that mighty drawing thumb!

Re: Get Well Wishes for the Giant
Rich, if you read this...take it easy. Don't be in a rush to get back to drawing. We'll last just fine for a while without comics, take all the time you need to let the hand heal properly, and best of luck with the healing process!

Best wishes for the Giant! Hope he gets well soon. Hand injuries are the absolute worst (besides maybe eye injuries), especially for an artist.
