Erfworld 108: The Battle for Gobwin Knob, page 98
Yay, new comic is up. (And heh, three threads made for it in the span of four minutes.)
Lots of exposition, some nice interaction between Parson and Wanda, some old questions answered and new ones to ask--like just who/what is it that she's reanimating in the last panel?
Also, panel 7 was a nice reminder of why I'm a Firebaugh fan.Last edited by Dacia Brabant; 2008-06-12 at 10:23 PM.

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
I'm not entirely sure what's going on in the foreground of that last panel. Anyone?

White shirt. Red Skirt. Brown Hair, Brown Skin. It's one of Charlie's Archons.
If you find yourself watching Power Rangers and wonder how some characters got their powers and zords back for an anniversary episode, just assume they were restored off screen. They have 20+ seasons of team geniuses to call on.

Well it is a corpse.
Good call with the Archons didn't think there'd be anything left of them.

Well. Yes. She's dead Jim.

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
Yeah, she's doing her thing on Jaclyn, the archon. Of course, that means that it's safe to assume that she and the others were nuked. I'd assume that Jillian's safe, though, but it's still a tricky business.

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
Sorry! I didn't see that this thread had already started! I'll go back and try to nuke the other one I made.
(What I wrote there…)
I think the conversations are the strongest pieces of this story. The action is fine and well done and all, but simple interactions, like this one, keep me coming back.
But it has been a while, hasn't it?For another fantasy webcomic with Dungeons and Dragons, read Heroes of Lesser Earth now, before it becomes cool and everyone starts doing it!

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
Oh man, Wanda uncroaking an Archon... I wonder if they can still fly, or if Wanda could make her into a Commander or caster of any kind...
And if Jillian IS dead, well, it looks like Wanda has a new "pet"...

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
This comic is just plain subversive. It's starting to grow on me. It's like there's a part of it that's supposed to be heartwarming -- Parson telling Wanda she's a loyal and valued member of the team, who still has something to contribute... just as he's gobsmacked in the face with the reminder that what Wanda can contribute is the ability to raise corpses into an unholy semblance of life.
And just for bonus points it's this gal getting the treatment. I know I'm stating the obvious, but I hadn't paid much attention to this side of the aisle before.Last edited by Remirach; 2008-06-12 at 10:37 PM.

Noticeably missing is Jillian.
Who wants to take bets on whether or not she's been captured again?

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
She looks good like that. Without the crown I mean. She dresses too over the top the rest of the time, I think.
She's got a great glint in her eye on panel 7. That should be blown up.
Again, it's pointed out that Ansom has enough power to crush Parson with no problems. He doesn't need the men going in the tunnels. All losing them can do is cause psychological damage to their moral.
Which is what has to happen to win. There is no way this can be won militarily. It's also interesting to know that it wasn't a spell so much Wanda used but the fortress itself that had it's defensive mechanisms activated.

I dunno, I think the text only adds to it, but definitely need that as an avatar.
[Edit: Very nice, Steve, thanks for doing that.]
And so much for the idea that her spell was a mass-scale slay living/create undead hybrid, though looks like we'll be getting zombie archons regardless. Too bad, but then Charlie's Rules exist for a reason I guess.

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
If she uncroaks all of ansoms aerial troops she just croaked-especially the archons--that would be a big boost to gobwin knob's air defense.

Can we be sure Wanda didn't murder Jillian in a rage?

No we cannot be sure until we see Jillian again.

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
Great comic. I wanted Stanley to come back but this comic changed my opinion. Seems Gobwin Knob can manage without him.

Re: Erf 108, Page 98
I totally agree. I love the contrast between the casual, open friendliness of panel 10, where she's got her arm hooked around Parson's and leaning against him for support and the fact that she's reanimating the dead. Heck, even as she is performing what is stereotypically the most evil of magicks, her look is calm, almost meditative.
Subversive, indeed.Oh it is the eyeball one.

What did Hamster mean by firing off OUR air defenses?
I would be a procrastinator, but I keep putting it off.
