Little something I made - a trace of that crazy bat thing with some tweaking. I'd love to see some ultra-realistic drawings of this guys creatures.   I really need to invest in a tablet...

ChairMaster posted:Well he's got an electrofrier, I'm thinking that at least this particular wizard knows that magic's a scam. He's going to try to get them killed since they brought technology with them. Maybe he saw what happened to the GREATEST loving PLANET EVER? They're definitely using technology as pseudo magic and keeping everyone else in the dark. Science is magic.    Also like BiggerJ said at the top - the transformations/Deaths are probably done by the twolesy themselves. The wizards probably know about psychology and are using it to get the comfy seats. What better way to scare someone off your trail then the promises of a painful end? Even more so due to their deep beliefs in the supernatural and other spiritual beliefs.They wizards are magnificent bastards. The wizards are essentially the bad guy from the living note-book saga, using their knowledge to their advantage and keeping everyone else in the dark again. Almost a recurring theme in the story too. They didn't know they brought the wrong guy, they didn't know about how bat-poo poo insane a certain race was, The guy didn't know about the danger technology would cause on that one planet, said one planet didn't know about who sired or mothered there children and it drove them crazy. This whole story is about paranoia and jumping to conclusions. scarycave fucked around with this message at 14:16 on Nov 20, 2012 |

Started reading up on Hit-men again after a long hiatus, It started at the panel before Passion,Lies,and Fungus so yeah, Passion,Lies,and Fungus. Couldn't stop reading, did the whole thing in one sitting, and it was amazing. He's really got a good grip on these "things spiraling out of control" jokes. Must have been a pain though for people who read his stuff weekly...

Just read through the invisible castle bit and I'm a bit worried about Annete...it might be because I haven't read it in so long but she seems a wee teeny weensy little itty bit blood thirsty. The end bit looks like it was Robo-Cop's day to do paper work at the office.

This thread is finally golden. Also, I'm starting to feel bad for these guys. There whole evolution is based on making lies real. They even have to kill themselves if somebody wearing a silly hat says they are going die to protect their families.

That ropes getting cut one way or another and the wizard of the Labyrinth is going to be super pissed, possibly setting off a chain of events where the wizard will start magicking everyone and start a big magic fight that causes the entire race to get messed up completely, Real-Plume is then totally going to get blamed for it.

New comics up, looks like Dunkirk and Not-Plume are already off to a good start on the new planet. This has got to be a record for fastest bad luck on a planet ever.

Farmland Park posted:I always thought it was something like they only got to know the planet they are about to go to at the last minute before they actually descend. Because of security/secrecy reasons, and due to Plume being an awesome expert on every alien species. There was that one planet where the old people were jerks, where Plume got paired up with the chick. She wasn't briefed at all and expected Not-Plume to know everything so that's a pretty safe bet.

BiggerJ posted:I've noticed that their eyes change color, possibly in relation to emotion. We just need to figure out which means what. Compared to the size of their arms though, but yeah your probably right. Still, I just get this feeling that most of the stuff on this planet was made by slaves or claimed as property. Think about it though, we had a few preachers (who turned to a life of crime) come to planets - probably without any ID at all, If that's a common occurrence then imagine how easy it is for them to get slaves. scarycave fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Jan 19, 2013 |

vyelkin posted:The little touches in this most recent comic are great. It could be scanning the environment as well as the people in the room... The only thing that would give - "Animal cruelty" would be on the wall where there's a guy ripping a worm in half on the wall. We don't know about any recent disasters (on this planet). This chick is certainly racist. The joke was so bad that she needs to be quarantined? Or that the joke was just so bad that it's considered a crime against nature and the machine is being ironic.

Sometimes I like to think this is like a bad soap-opera where the characters can't stop looking at the camera. I'm honestly not sure what Dunkirk is going to do. Part of me is divided at "He was quick to off Plume so he's all about self-preservation and will do what will most likely ensure his survival" or he's going to kill the Koala guy or end up helping them escape.

Wonder if they're going to end up fighting Dunkirk now. He's like the only guy around besides the Koala now. I don't know if its just me, but I love when the guys that the heroes are working for turn out to be just as bad as the people that tried to kill/enslave them on the other planets. The real reason for war is ensuring survival of ones race over another's.

ChairMaster posted:They may have chosen the wrong side in this conflict to try to convince. Chances are the other side would have been completely offended as well. Whose to say that Athena stating the theory is going to be what starts the war by getting this guy worked up about his wife count, and then it turns out Petrevolt let Athena and Not-Plume escape for that same reason.
