Annotated 4-21
From the original: Once again, we’d like to thank our crack team of Continuity Errorists. Payet Best’s stunt double was duly sacked for not bringing his prosthetic ears to the set. (Psst, actual Payet Best is not going to be that far behind him on his way out the door.)
“I’m pretty sure I’m Byron, right? We’re our own people with our own minds now, aren’t we? We’re not still doing the ‘these five characters have gamers inside them trying to get out’ bit?”
“Yeah, we revised that part out, but don’t tell the readers, we want to leave it ambiguous for a while.”
Not that Best hasn’t already un-endeared himself to Syr’Nj multiple times by now, but panel 3 on its own would’ve been enough. Attacking an ally from behind is verboten, in game or out of it.
Someone was definitely axing for trouble.
How did Frigg get her legs crossed like that? Even if it’s physically possible, I can’t imagine it would be comfortable when she’s wearing pants made out of metal plates.
You don’t tell Frigg what she can or can’t do!
It’s a strange way to stand, but good armor wouldn’t restrict your movement enough to prevent it.
My question was how Best reversed both his grips so quickly….
Now there’s something you just don’t see that often in fantasy stories…
Permanent, disfiguring damage to those long, pointy, easily targetable, Elven ears.
wait, I dont get the deal about ears, did someone forget to draw Best’s ears elfy? Did byron just cut his ear off?? I’m quite confused
We forgot to draw his ears pointed in the original page and then we fixed it.
Is there a link to the original?
Sadly, I’m not sure I can scare that up. It’s just a few lines’ difference, though, really.
Remember, if you kill off some of your teammates after the job is done but before you get paid, that’s a bigger share for all of the survivors!
If I remember correctly, the original contract was for a certain number of ralds “each”. Which means it’s not a pool. Otherwise, yes, that would be what the Rational Economic Adventurer would do!
