I hope Sizemore comes out ok, but Parson is sending him the Spidewry.

Re: 123, The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 111
I missed that the first time through, even though I was looking for that sort of thing <.<
Looks like we are gonna see a climax very soon....
That just looks like a stereotypical old fasioned dock worker to me. I somehow doubt that warlords design was *specifically* akin to Mario, but rather they both draw thier designs from the same source.Last edited by Amplify; 2008-09-21 at 05:34 AM.

Re: 123, The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 111
The Tool is a little annoying bastard, but I have to give him what he's due - when he gets to the frontline, he knows how to be awesome. After that, I have to root for him, at least for this battle.
Also, notice Sizemore's steely expression and how he's talking, without so much as an inflexion or a word too many. That's what a good man supressing all his morals and focusing on doing what needs to be done sounds like. It brings to memory the Pratchett stance that if you find yourself at the mercy of a man, pray he's an evil man, because the good one will simply kill you to end things quickly.

Re: 123, The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 111
More and more, I am looking forward to the end of this chapter, so that I can go back and reread everything all at one go. This is a great comic, but my brain suffers from being not quite big enough to keep up with all the "pieces" for the length of time required between updates. I just can't remember who everyone is.
You know what would be neat? A sidebar with the faces of the characters, their names, and which side they're (currently) on. Hm. I like that idea. I might do that with my own comic!For another fantasy webcomic with Dungeons and Dragons, read Heroes of Lesser Earth now, before it becomes cool and everyone starts doing it!

Neither do I, really.
But everyone must watch West Side Story. It's an awesome musical and an awesome movie.I use black for sarcasm.

"Bats? Bats, we got".
You can say that again. Must be millions of the blighter's. :P
Either bats are worth bugger all in a fight, or they could just swarm the dwagons and win.
Oh, and don't forget the KISS reference.Last edited by SteveD; 2008-09-21 at 07:06 AM.

Just search YouTube for "Kiss - I Love It Loud", there are plenty of clips.
Search "West Side Story-Jet Song" for the other song.Last edited by Miklus; 2008-09-21 at 07:15 AM.

Boop, how can I keep hating on Stanley after a shout-out like that? I guess even he gets a crowning moment of awesome. Can't wait to see how this plays out.
Oh and so much for the Foolamancer tricking Stanley into fleeing the ambush; I think Jack pretty much wants to get the Tool croaked at this point.

Hey, what gives? I thought Stanley had the Arkenhammer, not the Arkenaxe.
Utterly fantastic page. And the tension builds.My Avatar is Vinnie Doombats from the Erfworld comic written by Rob Balder and illustrated by Jamie Noguchi.

Re: 123, The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 111
No one ever explained the joke of Knights in Stanley's Service" Google just refers me back to threads where it wasn't explained way back when either. Over the months I've googled the term whenever the mood strikes me, but I never got an answer to the joke here.
Too bad this forced me to remember WSS. The one movie that God would be hard pressed to make another with less artistic merit......
---self deleted about 1000 words of ranting. I've got a lot to say about works assigned in school and little of it positive. Seeing people claim how great WSS was needed a counter to save people the agony of exposing themselves unprepared, but the rant was unnecessary."If I could just interrupt your stunningly dysfunctional group dynamic for a moment to interject." -- Erfworld

The band KISS got a bad rep for 'outrageous' on-stage antics way back when. Some of those nay-sayers came up with the idea that they were called KISS because it stood for Knights In Satan's Service, so it's really self-explanatory when you know that much.

I see now why Saline IV loved Stanley enough to make him the Heir.
Stanley is a horrible king, but a preternaturally gifted warlord.

Re: 123, The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 111
Actually, Mario was designed pretty much entirely from the limitation of computer graphics at the time he was designed. They couldn't make the hair correctly, so they gave him a cap. They couldn't define the face very clearly, so they gave him a big nose. They couldn't make a decent mouth, so they gave him a mustache to cover it. Nintendo didn't design him from stereotypical old fashioned dock workers.
Plus, I think Mario is much more famous than stereotypical old fashioned dock workers. I think it's much more likely that this character is based on Mario than anything else.We don't need no steeeenkin' signatures!

Re: 123, The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 111
It was a very nice reference to West Side Story indeed.
Alas, I was not one to state that Sizemore would be the one to die of the major characters on Parson's side. I, unfortunately, don't know if I can keep saying that. He is overwhelmed and overrun. Reinforcements are on the way but will they get there in time?
