Loose elves sink ships.
Loose sinks ship elves.
Elves ship loose sinks.
Ship sink loose elves?
Elf elves elf elves.
Ships shipping shipping ships.
Loose ships sink elves
Strange ships sink suckers :I
…i should know >.>
You sank my battleship!
Sinks ship loose elves
Sink to shipping loose elves.
Sink loose, ship elves.
If you were shipping E-Merl and Iwatani, I don’t think that ship can be saved no matter how loose he is.
Considering some of the ships I’ve seen, this is nothing.
So, is this E-Merl’s player roleplaying being a stinking drunk and the player inadvertently giving the NPC a clue that people can come back to life in this game, despite it being a totally normal function of the MMO?
Or is this E-Merl the actual stinking drunk inadvertently giving the (unknownst to him) evil councilmember the secret that Syr’nj and co. know the secret to coming back from the dead?
I’d instead bet on it being E-Merl being automated offline, like Rachel was. (remembering that she woke up to her character being nonexistent, not that she was playing and then suddenly stopped having a character when she died in that one particular way.)
That still worries me. I feel like all my MMO characters are off having loads of fun and adventures while I am offline and all I make them do is farm materials and craft stuff.
“Hey Fen, where are you going?”
“Ugh, my player just came back online, see you after a few hours of grinding centaur hooves”
“You’re in look, once my player logs back on, I’m scheduled to join a raid party and attack the same boss 80 times for rare loot drops.”
Edit: look = luck
It is when you’re looking in *my* direction.
#preens
I assumed that “look” was intentional and meant to imply a Yorkshire accent.
*Looks into the camera like one of those animal-based tools on the Flintstones* “It’s a living!”
well of course – can’t have the dayjob be all that exciting. need to save the racous fun for when their on their off time.
it’s also why sometimes you log on with broken equipment, resurection sickness in the middle of a field with no idea how it happened :D
This dude is a shitty plotter if he can’t even kill off his wife.
That or she’s better than him at politicking.
…we haven’t seen his wife… may he actually did…
We did actually meet her some time back, though it’s been a dog’s age.
http://guildedage.net/comic/chapter-3-page-5/
On that matter, it seems the Iwatani’s also have a daughter, though not sure if anything will come of that…unless… SHE’S THE TRUE MASTERMIND BEHIND IT ALL IT ALL MAKES SENSE!
Classic case of… “Daddy I want everything” … “OK dear”.
Yes, but if Misa was the true mastermind, she’s not doing her job well. Her first attempt to assassinate/otherwise remove her brother from the picture failed (feigning ignorance when she let the pirates kidnap him and/or instigating the kidnapping) and she hasn’t made any move since. Either she’s got a VERY grand plot in the works, or is just about as dumb as the kids that climbed into the sack.
SUSPICIOUS SHANNA AVATAR DEMANDS ANSWERS.
Also, why has no one commented about Cavy Gravy. That’s hilarious.
Cavy Gravy is just the worst ice cream flavor.
The ice cream flavor is named after a very famous hippie clown.
That guy can’t be Iwatani. He looks and behaves nothing like him.
He does look much younger now, with less neck flab and wrinkles. Plus his jawline got more defined?
I know what this has to mean: Iwatani back then was from the future, and the one talking to E-Merl now is going to travel back in tme to before his plots backfired on him.
Stylistic changes, I think. There’s a rather distinct difference between Erica’s characterization and John’s. If you look at that page, Syr’Nj’s cheekbones are much less defined than John usually draws them.
BUT SHANNA AVATAR PROCLAIMS THAT TIME TRAVEL IS THE ANSWER.
But they’d still want to keep roughly to the same design and character.
Iwatani really isn’t the sort to haggle or insist upon the “worth of his name.” Or even show much of a reaction to adventurers haggling with him.
I think it’s as simple as “they weren’t planning to make Iwatani and co. such a big part of the plot”. Or even, “the character concept changed over time”. Keep in mind how many characters they’re juggling, and that these comics are uploaded over years with no opportunity to go back and edit. I stay away from making webcomics for precisely this reason, as I’m too fond of editing and re-editing to ever be able to handle such a rapid comic turnover.
Iwatani’s Wife is Best’s Alt.
5 bucks say he’s under her thumb, scared of her. He was a pretty nice guy, until Masuyo pushed him into a life of scheming.
I’ll take that bet.
It also depends on if he can make himself look blameless at the time. Someone who say, spends a lot of time at home without many servants can’t mysteriously vanish without people talking. And, well, if it’s convenient at the time, her death may be something that’s already planned, but he’s waiting for a moment where it’ll do him the most good.
Still funny, though. Dat panel 2. Most entertainment I got from this increasingly grimdark comic in a while.
Well, now we’ve found a redeeming quality for His Grace Iwatani: Despite his feelings toward her, he hasn’t killed his wife yet. Truly, this is a man who values family over his own personal happiness.
not for the lack of trying i bet.
He’s waiting until the Ashley Madison hoopla dies down so he can set something up with the redhead
Careful with the dark magic book, E-Merl! Anyone who’s seen “EVIL DEAD” knows not to mess with it!
And you, sir, are no Ash.
-snaps shut- oh no! It’s tasted human blood!
Pardon me a moment while I stare at E-Merl’s ears.
Whatever, it’s red, it tasted it, we’re doomed
I mean really, cherry koolaid could end the world with a book like that at this point
Indeed, that is book looks like it punches back.
How hard could it be to learn “Klaatu Barada Nikto”?
CHARLI–I MEAN E-MERL! YOU CAN NEVER COME BAAAAACK!
You’re going on an AD-VENTURE E-Merl! We’re going on an AD-VENTURE!
The Bonana King!
Bet there’s a spell in there to summon a maaaaaagical liopleurodon…
I’m not entirely sure what’s going on in Panel 2’s background.
Perhaps Iwatani has baked himself an enormous loaf of bread, and is reclining against it.
It’s the inside of his head. Golden-brown-crusted cortex.
Is there a character page I may have missed? If no,
why the HELL NOT,will there be one? I need help keeping track of my meds, let alone the people in this story (which I enjoy very much).Thank You!
There is a cast page (click “cast” at the top) which is now a bit out of date, but still fairly useful.
Thank you! Of course I missed it hiding in plain sight like that.
“Oh, for…look, I need this book of yours for my world domination plans.
And to kill my wife.
Mind if I take a look ?”
..
“You know what ? Take it. I don’t care anymore.”
Ummm did anyone notice he pushed the book in front of e-meril just as he slammed his hands down? HE KNOWS SOMETHING!!! THE BOOK IS GONNA POSSESS HIM OR SOMETHING.
OR EAT HIS ARMS IN EXCHANGE FOR HER AND HE’LL BIND HER SOUL TO A SUIT OF ARMOR!!! FULLMETAL E-MERIL
Sounds like E-Meril needs to kick it up a notch.
Seems he wants freedom from his son. Not his wife or others. xD
