*runs to read*

Edit: Well, darn it. Just when the good guys were starting to win.

Celia's casual reaction to Haley killing someone right in front of her, when she's just gotten done professing how much she hates violence, was... rather poorly handled. Just like pretty much everything relating to her rather odd brand of pacifism.

Whoa. Thousands of comics in one day? This will be one hell of an archive binge.


I love the mintiness :) Nice to see Haley get a bow on par with Roy's weapon.

Outstanding choice for Haley. Finally an upgraded bow that actually has real kick to use on Bozzak.

Icy Burst +5? Now Haley is on par with Roy! That's always my problem DMing games... Seeding the good stuff along the way, and remembering ALL the different characters.

I agree. Celia has been rather inconsistent since she joined up with Haley and Belkar.

But it's still quite a funny comic. "My last breath... is also my mintiest..."

AFAIR, it applies the icy burst effect to every shot, period. No charges, no limits.

Ok, there's something that really bugged me on this comic...

Haley's a greedy rogue who normally takes everything that isn't attached to the walls and then takes the walls themselves, even if death is iminent.


WHY IN THE 9 HELLS DOESN'T SHE JUST POCKET ALL THE BOWS, TROPHIES AND OTHER VALUABLE SHINIES INSTEAD OF LEAVING THEM BEHIND LIKE THAT?

What has hapaned to poor Haley?

Surely her new aircut must have been really traumatic to her. What other explanation could there be for her to leave such a fortune on equipment behind?

Crystal's sword is only a +4. So it wouldn't be as great. Plus it's distinctive enough that I'm already tired of seeing it.
