Your soul is safe, and your enemy goes crazy. It's a win-win situation!
Two things wrong with that:

One: You need to find a Grisgol.

Two: You would go insane when you put it in.

Better idea: Make it a ring and sneak up to a hobo when he is asleep. Put the ring in the hobo's mouth, and make him swallow.

If you die, you respawn in him, and kill him. You take the ring out, and find another hobo

Actually, it's somewhat worse than that. To construct a Grisgol, the Lich must first be killed and then does not respawn as long as it's phylactery is in use as the animating component of the Grisgol.

Yeah, I just found out. However, that's to construct a Grisgol. But if you just hide it in an already-existing one...

As for the hobo thing, he'd digest your phylactery...

Once again, thanks for the praise, everyone. And I like how the crackpot theories are really starting to develop nicely now.

Anyway, here's today's issue:

That certainly was a rare moment of competence on the part of Kaal. Definitely a "stroke of genius".

Or else really lucky. Either way, he did his job and hopefully we get to see the exchange between the real Dave and Red.

I was trying to figure out which of the two (Aldran and Keriss) Kaal was imitating. But then this comic came. As expected from the first panel, it was Kaal. Good comic once again!

No, they're just the guys who clean up after the good guys.

It's a little late for 'Finx is a LICH!' posts, but... Finx is a LICH! Which I specifically find surprising because... well, Liches don't sleep, right? And yet in #63, Keriss managed to put him to sleep to distract him...

Oh dear. I'm being a difficult reader, aren't I? Love the comic, in any case, and just in case it turns out that Finx is a man disguising himself as a lich disguising himself as a man, I lay claim to a lot of smug.

Finx is afflicted with a super-rare disease affecting only undead that causes him to enter a meditative trance in times of boredom. Duh, guys.

Just posting here to keep saying that I really enjoy the comics and that I will send ninjas to your house to kill you if you stop making them.

But in an encouraging way.

Anyway, kudos for making one of the few really enjoyable OOTS fan-comics on the boards.

The movie is 2001: A Space Odyssey. The sentient computer is named HAL, and it famously utters the line "I'm afraid I can't let you do that, Dave."
