Remember how Durkon was the most boring and uneventful character with a fairly boilerplate origin

W.T. Fits posted:I'm kinda feeling the opposite - I think this arc is a perfect encapsulation of why Durkon would want to be rez'ed. Because he knows that even if they stop Hel's scheme here, Xykon still remains a threat to the last Gate, and after dealing with him, the Snarl itself could become another potential threat to the world. I mean, his mom just mentioned how it would've been senseless to pull his dad out of Valhalla so that's definitely setting up Durkon willingly leaving it to finish his duty with Xykon et al

I literally cannot believe that after 15 years and thousands of comics people still spaz out and try to rationalize what Burlew does using the logic of the stupid board game instead of what makes narrative and dramatic sense

You got your night watch, the horse people, your golden company, any of the new armies popping up at the end of the book, it's a rich vein of creepy cult like love of the army she can mine

I've read 200 strips of 8 Bit Theater so far and I gotta say, it does hold up although some of the humor is a bit dated because sprite comics are inherently a medium that ages poorly

My Lovely Horse posted:I'm not so sure Sphinx Pox are gonna be a throwaway gag, since I don't believe Rich Burlew can resist the temptation to introduce a riddle or several, but at the same time, it was an uncommonly ham-fisted way to not so much foreshadow it as plonk it right in your path. That's pretty much what Hela is in this story
