Any chance Durkon can just cast Heal?
Get well soon Rich. We can just bicker about completely random topics until the comic returns...Just like we will when it does.

Posting here to support everyone who's telling the Giant to take time in recovering. In the long term, OOTS has been running for years and will hopefully continue to run for years more; waiting a few extra weeks here and there to ensure a high quality of art, and an equally high quality of life for the artist, is really pretty trivial.
Maybe in the meantime, we could try to convince Mrs. Giant to un-outlaw fancic threads on this site?
Anyone else want to see some of the comic ideas Rich comes up with while he's drugged up on pain meds?
Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Make the space cats canon!

Nerve damage, huh? Hmm. I remember being in a cast for weeks thanks to a Bennett's fracture after a motoring accident, and lost all feeling in my thumb. Bloody thing is still a bit stiff, even months later. But the feeling's back, and I can sketch okay.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: yes, this sort of thing smarts like hell, but it is also something you can recover from.
May the placebo effect derived from the comfort of hard evidence speed your full recuperation.
I hope you heal as fully and as comfortably as possible, and wish you all the best luck in your recovery.
Don't feel pressured to work on the comic until you are 100% healed and have had an extra 1-2 weeks rest after that. There's nothing more important than your health, so don't let any passive-aggressive jerks on the internet get you down. Everyone here is behind you.
Best wishes, and hope the recovery goes smoothly Mr. Giant, and thank you kindly Mrs. Giant for taking the time to let us all know what's up. We appreciate it greatly

Comic withdrawals are not dangerous, just annoying.
Take as much time as you need, and don't risk making it worse just because we whine a bit.
As a side note, it may take a while to get the kinks worked out so to speak. So do the exercises/physical therapy the doctor/therapist assigns. (A couple of my fingers got hurt pretty bad, and it took a couple of extra months after the stitches were removed before I was close to normal with that hand.)
We're all wishing you the best of health and a speedy recovery.

Take your time and heal properly. Overusing damaged tissue before its ready is the surest way to get long term (or permanent) damage. We'll all wait patiently for your triumphant return with carefully contained glee.
(Please have the mrs. write down any ideas you have while doped up.)
I know you had been working hard all summer and had hoped you would have some down time. This is the last way I would have wished for it though. Hopefully some good can come out of this.
Good luck.

Re: Get well Rich!
. We have been around for years (nearing a decade) we can wait a couple of months more.
:
Fret not, I will harness ultimate arcane power to continue the comic in our dear author's absence!
So while V's doing that, are we gonna go after the guy who crashed into--
BELKAR!
