It's not just an American thing. I know we have them in Australia because my brother got in when he was going to university.
Basically, it's a list of the best students of the prearranged period of time.

Anyway, good for you! I hope things keep going well.

Doesn't count as badass unless she joins the military and becomes a special ops agent. Who always carries a swiss army knife and her own matches. And becomes renowned for her unique methods.

Okay, being good at a way of fighting (actual fighting, not strip fencing, which is about as useful when fighting as Grand Theft Auto is when driving a car) would suffice. But it's not as cool.

I'm pretty sure that's the official name for fencing where you're not allowed to move off a strip of cloth. Why they don't just call it line fencing, I don't know.

Allow me to present a counterargument.

Unfortunately, spellcasting does not exist in the real world.

If I can't get the comic up before I go to sleep, then I'll get it up before I watch Korra tomorrow, or within half an hour. Sorry guys.

Never assume luck when competence is a sufficient answer.

You watch Korra too? Why is it that all of my favorite authors/artists on the internet seem to enjoy the exact same TV shows as I do?

Also, luck is when preparation meets opportunity. Thus, you can always assume at least half of the credit for whatever lucky breaks you receive.

...well, if they share enough of a taste with you to make something you like, it makes sense you'd watch/read the same stuff. xD

Panel Five err'd in the speech bubble-pointer thing. I don't think RUST is the one being incredulous at the rash accusations that are true but still.

I hope I'm not spamming a question that's been asked dozens of times before, but are there any gnomes in this setting? I can't recall if I've seen any in the comic before, though it's been a while since I've gone through the archive. I'm just curious cuz I like gnomes, that's all.

If they've been left out because this art style makes it hard to distinguish them from dwarves, then I totally understand.

What? Gnomes always have long, grey beards, if they have any at all. Dwarves have brown or red beards, and always have beer. Very dissimilar. Speciesist.
(I think Terrence was a gnome. Him and that gnomish looking girl, with the cart and the funny looking donkey-horse)

Terrence is a halfling (so I assume due to his big hairy feet), and Gianna was a dwarf.

I was also confused about Gianna's race at first, so I'm glad that was resolved as the story progressed.
