Anti-Heroes

[Fawkes]

Anyway, it won't work, cuz everyone knows the story of LotR anyway.

It's a parody webcomic based on the notion "What if LotR was just a roleplaying game adventure?" And it did work. Pretty well. But it's not what you were talking about.

Heh. Debate Merry's gender! Gollum is not evil!

Rock falls, everyone dies.

In other news:
"This is foreshadowing. This will be very important to remember later, because it is foreshadowing."

Brilliance!

[Zarah]

Vampires, being undead, are immune to mind-affecting stuff. So why did the Mind-blast work?

Logic takes a back seat to my story.

Aaaanyway, new issue:

Issue 51: Roaming Charges Apply

Spoiler

Show

[Yeril]

Noooo

anti-Hero's without Frank?

Heresy

[Mordokai]

Ah Zarah, you spoil us so.

Not that I'm complaining, mind you But I'm afraid I don't get the POS joke

[Lyinginbedmon]

I'm not sure I get that joke

[Yeril]

Me neither...

[T-O-E]

Brilliant comic, as always. Second panel error, he says "are't" instead of "aren't".
EDIT: Also, aw... I thought Frank was going to stay.

[Green-Shirt Q]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Frank! Why'd you have to leave?!

He was my favourite character next to Aldran.

Aw well, I doubt we've seen the last of him.

Looking forward to the next one!

[T-O-E]

I wiki'd pos, it' could be either Piece Of S*** or Parent Over Shoulder.
The latter is likely.

[TigerHunter]

Me neither...

Fourth'd.

However, I heartily approve of this comic regardless.

[The_Werebear]

POS = Piece of S*ht

Great comic. I love it.

[sheepofoblivion]

Awesome comic!

[Phase]

You are spoiling us, you blessed goat...

Oh, and the speech bubble in panel four is missing a spike...

[Uncle Festy]

That's because it's coming from, you know, offscreen.

[Phase]

That's because it's coming from, you know, offscreen.

No it wasn't, but it's okay, Zarah apparently knew what I meant...

[Uncle Festy]

Oh... Zarah stealth edited the comic! I get -!

[Arakune]

Fraaaaaannnkkk!!!

*sniff*

[Szilard]

Pos=Planer office of Services, its in the comic. Heis commenting it would be too easy just to do things with them.

[Lyinginbedmon]

We understand that Szilard, a lot of us seem to have trouble grasping the joke that Aldran is referring to, a different meaning of POS

[Szilard]

I don't get how Peice of S*** fits in with the planar stuff, I just don't see the joke then. Hmmm...

[Querzis]

I don't get how Peice of S*** fits in with the planar stuff, I just don't see the joke then. Hmmm...

...It doesnt fit in at all, thats the point. Aldran say «so you are the Official POS». And then he say its too easy because its way too easy to do a joke with that. They are the Official Piece Of Sh*t, thats the joke, it doesnt have anything to do with planar stuff. How come I'm french and I just heard POS once before but I still got it?

Ok I know why, its because I'm rude and the first thing I wanna learn in other languages is insults so I can use them but still, I dont think it was really complicated.

[Vampiric]

Sauruman

Sauron and Saruman. I'm pretty sure you meant Saruman...

[Vampiric]

I wiki'd pos, it' could be either Piece Of S*** or Parent Over Shoulder.
The latter is likely.

I'm pretty certain it's the former. Great comic Zarah! Yay for double!

[mockingbyrd7]

Sauron and Saruman. I'm pretty sure you meant Saruman...

I always thought that it was retarded that Tolkien gave his two main villains such similar names. Other than that, the man was a genius.

Back on topic, the comic has been getting better and better lately. No offense to any of the numerous, talented webcomic authors out there, but this strip is definitely the best written and best drawn one on the boards, at least in my opinion. It's the only one where I literally can't wait to find out what happens next.

I love the way you drew the mind flayers (much more creative than the way Rich draws them), and there's something about Dave the Taxi-Guy that radiates coolness. Hope Frank makes it out of this, too.

Maybe it's just because I'm in a complimentary mood, but I really, really enjoy this strip. Keep writing Zarah. You're semi-prolific, and have your stuff down cold.

You've nailed it spot on. Also, the author hereby apologizes for any and all confusion as resulting from today's comic. I had no idea that "PoS" had so many acronyms associated with it.

Also, being that today is March 1st, I've updated my avatar for something more seasonal.

[Uncle Festy]

Yay! Awesome new avatar, Zarah!...
It's March 1st?

[Szilard]

Yes yesterday was Fab 29, unless you're in a different timezone.

[Phase]

I never understood why you mortals count an extra day in the particular orbit you call "february".

Did you not, as I recall, base these periods of time off my orbit around Terra? It does not take me less time to circle your planet for three years, then more on the forth.

I relieze that it was based of of YOUR orbit around Sol, but why not just have a special day set aside every four years, instead of adding an un-neccesary day to a record of my orbit?

XOXOXOXO,
Phase
