Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
Man, it's tough to choose between 611 and 612--and the others are good too.
OK, 611.

I pick 611, but 613 was a close second.

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
Some good ones in this set, but I definitely have to vote 611, for sheer awesomeness. No wonder we love bad boys like Belkar.

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
611 Aside from the general awesomeness, the little detail that the visible part of the sending spell in the large panel spells out "Alive, in danger in Greysky with Belkar" shows how much detail the giant puts into these comics (or possibly how much we overanalyze them).

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
While #611 is excellent, at the same time it's kinda expected after the previous strip's build-up. #612 is twistier, and has better dialogue (Belkar is on fire, especially "It's a whole thing", and the Cleric's not far behind him.
So, yeah. #612.Please write all sarcasm in blue text. All metaphors should be marked in red text and for any split infinitives, please use green. Thank you.

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
It's just gotta be #611 for me. Belkar's comeback was definitely no letdown.

612 for the 'Ouch!' factor. But 611 is really nice.
612 speaks to us that say "if not violence solves your problem, then applying more will!Last edited by Hardcore; 2011-03-02 at 11:05 PM.

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
Tough call, a bunch of great strips clustered together.
Gotta go with 613, though.

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
All are nice but 611 takes the cake. It's Belkar's return, come on.

Re: The Sticks Awards 611-615
Belkar 6:11 says I just whooped your ass. (Hopefully that's the last time I use that joke with Belkar due to die soon. I just had to use it after the angle I kept pushing when it came out.)
Though it did pull away on the second page after hovering around 50% for much of the first, it seemed to do so rather reluctantly, with people continuing to mention that it was "close". Yes, there are other good strips here, strips that could win any other group of five, but are you really that jaded (or sick of Belkar) you're willing to go "eh, it's a good strip" for something once considered the epitome of awesomeness and Belkar's Crowning Moment of Awesome? I have a feeling that 611 will share 539's fate without necessarily deserving it, even if 610 is its only competition.
The real surprise may be where the challenge was coming from, as I had said that 612 wouldn't be able to compete with 613 or 615, and instead it gets more votes than the both of them combined. I figured the food puns and "Icy Burst" would beat "Brainy Pete", but I guess 612's quantity of jokes wins out. (Part of it, I think, was that I expected the strip to be most deprived of votes by the presence of 611 was 612, as I figured Belkar was more the star there than in the other strips. Of course, I failed to properly account for the cleric, so maybe it was 613 that was most robbed...) On the other hand, as expected, 614 might as well not have been here at all.
Throw out 617 for inflaming anti-Celia passions again; 619 and 620 also feature too much Celia, but the video game joke at the end might make 619 a dark horse. I figure it's likely to come down to 616 for humor, showcasing Belkar's new outlook, and Crystal demanding to be killed, and 618 for Haley's tactics, with 616 being the early favorite.Avatar courtesy azuyomi244.
