Super Mario Bros 3

It's been about a year since I first read Hitmen for Destiny. It took a bit to get started, and I was sad when Lostclock died, it was still good. I wish Fusk and Vorte had gotten some kind of real comeuppance.

I haven't read the other two. Are they on par with HFD?

Super Mario Bros 3

Just finished Lies, Sisters, and Wives. It reminds me a lot of Neil Simon's play "Rumours." I'd love to perform it on stage.

Rulebook Heavily posted:

There is a spot in HfD where Norwegian turns out to be the language of magic, though.

Vorte and Fusk talk about the Language Fiend, who Rolf Rust is destined to kill. He's been controlling and altering the Finnish language so that its everyday use includes various magic incantations that strengthen him and give him soldiers. Some cool good wizards have been introducing good spells into Finnish over the years to counter the Language Fiend.

I loved this whole thing because it's explained in one comic and really never touched upon again. It's some insane worldbuilding just for fun.
