    We are ready to see the kid’s charred, mangled corpse now.

      judging from the last page, I’d say it’s still airborne.

        If I were pacing a landing, I’d have put it in the background of the last panel here – so maybe something else happened to him.

      We’re not asking for much!
      Look, you don’t have to use the whole kid if you don’t want to…

      (Kidding. This kid is great. He reminds me a bit of Charles from The Tick.)

            Ugh, that was meant to come with an explanation.

            The gag with Michigan J. Frog is that he only sings and dances for a single individual, when out of sight of others. Subsequently, any attempts to tell others of the frogs unusual characteristics make the person appear to be joking at best and insane at the worst. Usually on the latter end.

    Frigg *really* needs to have a talk with Gravedust about what’s happening to her.

        My money says Gravedust knows, but he’s letting her figure it out for herself, what with faith being a personal thing. She’ll figure it out when she’s ready.

      I’m not too sure if Gravey is the best person to get ‘the talk’ from, but then I guess tracking her parents down would be too much trouble

        He’s the perfect one to give Frigg the ‘talk!’ He’s not into sugar-coating anything and we all know Frigg’s got more spice than nice.
        …and don’t any of you DARE break into crappy Spice Girls lyrics!

        That’d be more of a Rachel-thing, anyway. ‘Though, she’d prolly try to impress Frigg with how “cool” and bad-ass she really is and embarrass herself with Avril Lavigne lyrics…

        Imna go weep now.

      At least Frigg was eventually able to prove that Mr. Snuffleupagus was real.

      “Hey, Big Bird! Sorry that none of us here on Sesame Street believed that Mr. Snuffleupagus was real. Frigg brought him out where everyone could see him, and then made barbecue for all of us! Here. Have a woolly mammoth steak. Do you have any other ‘imaginary’ friends we should have over for lunch?”

    Between Rachel and Frigg, it’s debatable who believes more in her powers.

    Frigg’s faith in herself may be second to nun.

    Nothing like the aftermath of a good, rough hellfuck. I feel that, in order to convert the unbelievers, she’ll probably have to suplex a train or some such.

    First you place a Paladin in a box with a vial of poison…

    …okay, I can’t think of the rest of the joke but it ends in Missionary Super-Position.

          Ummm… is this a “Schroedinger’s Paladin” thing? ..where at any given time, if you open the box, the Paladin could be dead or alive..? At least the Paladin has more understanding of the situation than the cat…

            No see, until the box is opened the Paladin is NEITHER dead nor alive, and thus in a Missionary Superposition between the two.

    Magick Supershit (Su): At 10th level and above, the crusader gains the powerful but unpredictable ability to smite her enemies, causing 1d6 points of divine damage per crusader level in addition to her normal damage with a single attack. However, she cannot activate this ability on her own; the DM decides when it activates.

    So do to their logic, Frigg was at the epicenter of a massive explosion due to overheating and survived unscathed without even having her hair ruffled… I would find her version more likely.
