As expected I missed the update while I was on a trip, but I will post anyways because this is one of my favorites, even if nobody gets to read it!

I love this page. It just shows a level of trust and camaraderie between Bandit and Byron that I find terribly endearing, as stupid as that is.

I know, I know, someone would go in here and argue “no, InternetRandomGuy, Bandit just came back because she’d lose her easy gig if she had let them die.” “No, Beemowtree, Byron wasn’t that nice, he just had anything to do but hope. What else was he gonna do?”

WELL SHUT YOUR FILTHY MOUTH, I IGNORE YOU AND STILL FEEL TOUCHED AND ATTACHED FOR NO LOGICAL REASON.

So, in the end, the resolution to our campaign came even more heart wrenching to me than it should’ve.

And don’t even get me started on the next page and Byron’s concern for Frigg. Not just the yelling “Frigg” when she goes under to prank him, but specifically his dialog desperately trying to convince her. But they still bros so all is good.

Oh, I agree. Without that alt-text it would never have occurred to anyone that there was supposed to be any connection to Home Alone. Really the only joke here is the one Phil was having on some readers (and Erica, according to her comments on the original page).

Ok, I see the paralell, but if that is indeed the intent mentioned in the tiptext then I still have to shake my head in confusion. “We have a Wet Bandit too!” is at best an oblique reference, it doesn’t have any of the elements of a joke, much less a cerebral one.

It is Frigg. She wants the others to go ahead and flee, but is still convinced she can get herself out without any help.

In the movie, there are two Wet Bandits, who are called that because they leave the water running in every house they rob. In this comic, there is one wet Bandit, who is wet because she ~~left the water running in this dungeon she robbed~~ just took a dive to get the keys.
