Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
Clearly, the most important part of the update is .
But I guess it should also be noted that, while Mookie hasn't gone all out on the whole time travel thing yet, Katya is apparently able to yell at people through time now. I can only imagine that she is going to die right about now, because she obviously didn't use it to warn Team Deegan about anything.
EDIT: Also, I am not sure if they're still going through the secret entrance, but flying up to the Sanctum like that kind of defeats the purpose of, well, a secret entrance.Last edited by Johnny Blade; 2012-12-05 at 03:45 AM.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
I would love it if Katya uses her newfound powers to start yelling warning across space and time. With each yell we can cut to the present where Team Deegan gets stronger and stronger and the King gets weaker and weaker. In the end, it'll be just the King and a severely diminished Snuggly verses all the Archmages (and Murry), Battlecasters, Rillian, Draconic Freak, Maestro, Snowsong, Luna, Jacob, Celestro, Orcs, Luanian church, and of course The Lord Dominic. They'll of course end the day with a mega beam spam while Dave howls his fury.
Eh, who am I kidding? Best case scenario Dominic would end up breaking space time himself and maybe give the runt some token praise for inspiring him.

Is that a Superman joke?
There is a whole lot of concentrated stupid here. Might be a record.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
I hope the secret entrance doesn't come up again and Mookie's just completely forgotten about it.
Also I hope he also forgets about the fact that the sanctuary has turned into a defensive weapon and has to handwave it away later.Avatar from Gunnerkrigg Court.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
Dave, Dave you are blind. It's kind of a thing.
Also, my money is on these being an illusion, which is still kind of weird because Dave is blind.
On the other hand, yes, this is a problem, because weren't there an ocean of cattleblasters surrounding the sanctum? For full situational awareness? Who have no line-of-sight or line-of-fire obstructions between them and these people just bopping along in the open sky? Who are the only things between these targets and the sanctum's main artillery? And somehow they've penetrated these defenses so thoroughly that they're inside sight range of A BLIND MAN.Who makes fabulous avatars? MEMNARCH makes fabulous avatars!

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
^ What Rocket Pony said. My first thought was that this is an illusion too, because that is the strongest magic in Dominion next to random beam spam.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
It's completely understandable. Being blind in this comic has about the same effect as losing a few teeth. He's blind for three reasons:
1) So his eyeballs could become Snuggly (why not just one?)
2) To show how much better Dominic is than him
3) The most important of all. I don't remember seeing any awful sight puns about him yet so Mookie has to be deliberately holding back so he can make one at the worst possible time, at the climax. It will be the worst bad pun of all time. Mookie will rig the site to hijack your webcam and place your own groaning face as the eighth panel. The meta groan. The joke is on you!
See the truth!
Does anyone else think that Dave might have been intentionally made into a joke villain because we kept saying how much we liked him?Last edited by T-O-E; 2012-12-05 at 09:27 AM.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
I really think his ridiculous racism and overall Bond villainy might be owed to it. Maybe not even because some people here or over at Something Awful or whatever other communities have formed around making fun of this comic liked him but because Mookie got similar feedback from his fans. After all, he already did the same thing to Siegfried...several times.
Also, I wonder what those horrible puns could be.
I imagine Stunt throwing slime-magic-propelled knives into the king's eye sockets, then slowly turning to the camera to say: "Bet that's the first time you've ever seen an eyeless man stare daggers, huh?"

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
If the inevitable 'SEE THE TRUTH' moment comes up, there's two ways the puns can go.
1) It fails and the King murders Dominic with a smug "I'm blind, I can't see anything"
2) Everything resolves, everyone's happy and the King looks up at Dominic with the reverence he once held only for his eyes and goes "Thank you Dominic I lost sight of myself." and then the comic ends with Dominic's angry glare towards the viewer, and we all go home and cry a little to ourselves.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
You remember that scene in the first austin powers movie where the thug got his head eaten by mutated bass? Austin ripped off a half dozen puns about losing ones head, or being the head of a corporation. I predict that. Everyone will gather around the defeated david and have their own eye related pun in a wall of text that makes us all wish we were blind. Doms head will twist right off as there is no direction he can look away at in disgust without a person spamming eye/see puns near him.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
I think it's more due to how Mookie can't write villains. And I'm not talking about in a "Mookie can't write
villainsperiod, heh" way; I mean his writing makes them fall flat even more than his heroes do.
The problem is he writes moment-to-moment but he keeps wanting to write villains who are grand schemers without doing any planning or trying to get in their heads to figure out what the most obvious thing any half-sane character would do in their situation. The villains are there to do dramatic stuff whenever Mookie feels it's needed but otherwise they sit around doing nothing. Granted the heroes tend to do this too but at least one of the protagonists or the antagonists need to be doing something to drive the plot and in the superhero-esque plots Mookie writes, that's almost always the antagonist's role.

It's worth noting that we still don't know if they've gone back in time, or this is a scry, or a vision, or an astral caravan, or what's going on. Nobody knows what's happening here.Who makes fabulous avatars? MEMNARCH makes fabulous avatars!

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
Panel five could go at the end of any strip and it would work pretty well.
And I guess we're supposed to be worried about whatever Dave is doing emitting smoke with specks of dust, because the heroes are telling us to be.

Realizing that he is up against protagonists, King David Johann decides to skip straight to the final beamspam boss battle without sending his faceless stormtroopers in to be slapped around first.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
While it is probably is going to be a diversion, I can't think what it's going to be from. Everyone else on their team couldn't stand up against a single cattleblaster, except for maybe Quilt and I doubt he could take more than a couple.
I don't think this plan of Miranda's was very well thought out.
Edit: Actually "plan" is too strong a word.Last edited by Trazoi; 2012-12-06 at 04:28 AM.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
Actually, I'm thinking there is no diversion, since, if there was, I'd expect Luna to be in that party. That way she could trip over the power plug to Dave's Fortress O' Doom and somehow without doing anything free Dominic so -he- can save the day.
Since she's out with Miranda and Co. I'm assuming that said "secret entrance" has been forgotten, for now.
I guess he technically -could- have Stunt and... uh.... Quilt I guess "sneaking in the back way" but they don't have any strong magic users (does Quilt actually count with those? I feel like that goes back and forth sometimes) so that would be incredibly stupid. (So that's what's about to happen, isn't it?)Icon by azuyomi244.

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
This. . . pretty much covers my reaction to the comic. Really guys? REALLY? You are going to be shocked that the bad guy you are trying to stop might consider fighting back? Maybe they forgot he was evil? He isnt a big breasted woman in huge cleavage revealing black leather after all. And he doesnt SEEM to be a jock.
Oh, and Valencia, you forgot about mister facebath himself. Johnny Resistant. We havent seen him much at all lately, that means he is fully recovered and ready for some payback. Never take your eyes off the interceptor."Interdum feror cupidine partium magnarum Europae vincendarum"

Re: Dominic Deegan, Mk. XLVII: A Flat World From Recycled Scrap
I dunno, it wouldn't be inconsistent for him to monologue as they stab him to death.
He worked hard to get where he is. That makes him a jock.
Oh no. I can see it now. Snuggly attacks Dex, Dave commands him to release Dex, who throws an exploding jockball (?) at him and spouts that line. The horror.Last edited by T-O-E; 2012-12-06 at 10:57 AM.
