Frigg: Stay away from me, ya *^$#@%* midget. I’ve had a horrible day; you f$#@kers had it made compared to us. We lost –
Bandit (interrupting): Awww, poor Friggy. All i had t’ do was KILL our BEZERKING LEADER all by myself while trying to avoid being hacked to death – and all without any “glowy hammershit” to protect me.
Frigg: You … had to kill Byron?!
Bandit: Yes.
Frigg: YOU F**KING KILLED BYRON??
Bandit: YES! Are y’ DEAF? Now y’ prob’ly want t’ kill me, huh?
Frigg: Dead. Byron’s dead … IT’S ABOUT F**KING TIME!
Not sure if it’s kosher to comment months after the fact, but I’m working through the archive and this is as far as I’ve gotten. Anyway, I’m pretty sure Bandit unequivocally killed Byron. First, it’s not necessary to die to go berserk, though it looks like a very serious (perhaps potentially fatal) wound is usually the trigger. It’s not clear whether it’s possible to die while berserking — if it is, then Byron was still very much alive when Bandit killed him. If it’s not, then Byron would need to have left berserk mode while being repeatedly stabbed in the back, which seems unlikely. But it looked to me like he left berserk mode after Bandit sliced him open and let all the Blinky ghosts out; he was still alive when he stood back up, but he’d stopped yelling and his movements seemed slowed.
Maybe this question would be moot if I was up to date on the comic.
It looked to me like Brother Tom killed Byron before making him the carrier, in which case you can pay the blame for Byron’s death either on Brother Tom or on Syr’nj for giving him enough serum to break his berserker state.
I’ve seen several comments since WAV was introduced suggesting he has a droid head. I thought them humorous. But lately, with repetition the idea has been creeping up on me that people might actually be serious about that…… O.O’
WAV: I continue to lose power. Core charge down to 17%. Conversion to standby mode imminent.
Fr’Nj: It sounds like “standby” is what we call “coma”. Have you tried to eat the food?
W: This energy is too crude, too unrefined; I need a converter to transform it into the current I require.
Fj: Our “converters” are teeth and tummies. Surely you have those?
W: I cannot compute a translation of those things – wait! What are you doing? DON’T!
Fj: There! Your lower faceplate is off. Now put the food in your “intake port” there, and do what I do. *chew*
W: Mmph – *chewchew swallow” – Hmm! I feel different, but not “recharged” yet.
Fj: It should slowly charge you over the next hour or so.
Frigg: HI hey heya *hic* if’n ya wanna a qwik boost, hook up yer hard drive ekstenshun to my Virtual Audio Gearbox – I call it “vag” fer short – and you c’n do a data transfer ta me, heh heh
W: ? Not familiar with that function; and it sounds like it would deplete me rather that reconstitute me.
Fg: We allz gotsta terminally deplete sometime; might as well go with a bang!
Gravedust: **sigh** Have some more coffee, Frigg. As I pour this ice water over your groin.
Pfft. Obviously he’s going to take his helmet off to try to get at the food, Best face underneath, and drunk Frigg is going to have herself a freakout.
I’m going to enjoy having WAV around. Hopefully he figures out a food-to-energy conversion hack sometime soon.
The question is at what point and around who he takes his faceplate off to reveal Best.
Drunk Frigg.
Rachel dead.
Bandit killed Byron (sort of).
Bandit and Frigg meet face to face sooner or later.
Volatile … very volatile.
The question isn’t when they’ll explode, it’s where and against who.

Good grief, what was I on last night when I made these two rambling posts?
Oh … I remember. NyQuil and the remnants of a 5 hour energy shot. Sorry.
*Dig him self a VERY deep hole… Just in case.* Now to hide all the stuff from the fridge in here too…

But it is open to interpretation.
Yeah, I’m sure there’s an apple with a usb port somewhere in there Mr. NoDigestiveSystem.
Don’t worry, I’m sure he’ll find the other member of Daft Punk soon enough.
You mean this guy?
I fucking love that guy.
Unfortunately, even if there is, I think he runs on Android. It still won’t be compatible.
Could be Blackberry, in which case he still has a chance with the fruit salad.
Yep, eating without a mouth… this will go well, I can just tell
“They looked beneath the mask! And what did they find? The fucking janitor, or the dude who ran the water slide.”
“And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling ki- guildies!”
there’s a storm brewing;)
“To gild refined gold
To paint the lily
To throw perfume on the violet
Is just fucking silly”
Keep in mind…
If he has no mouth, it’ll have to go in the other end.
Surely, he must scream if that is the case.
Good news! It’s a suppository!
if he has no mouth why would he have the other end? no input= no output…. /antijokechicken
Osmosis usually does…

I really really hope you are right!
Drunk minds think alike! Great! I mean great.
Drunk minds think great? I suppose…
Well, except those people who think that, “Hold my beer & watch this,” is an example of a good idea….
It’s only a good idea if someone is shooting a video.
If only the trolls grew root vegetables. Ram some metal into a potato and you have a basic battery – I saw it on Portal 2 so it must be true.
Something something, WAV doesn’t have root access…
Eye see what you did there.
If World of Warcraft has taught me one thing, then that you can eat and drink at the same time.
I want to see WAV trying to eat cutlery.
This can only end in tears (or in a short circuit).
Definitely a short circuit. Because Number 5’s alive.
I wonder if Frigg’s magical shit can somehow count as a better energy for the guy. No idea how THAT’S getting into him either, though.
*FriggTrollface.jpg*
Well, if Wav has an interface cable, Frigg’s got an access port…
So, he can hammer her glowy sh- ? … Wait … Wrong port.
I just hope his interface cable doesn’t have a Lightning connector. Frigg would break off his connector in microseconds.
If eating is a mystery to WAV, he’s gonna be very unhappy with his first poop.
Data Dump!
Cabbage in, garbage out.
Well, fourth panel sure got me giggling ’cause of Observer’s fanfic two pages ago. ^_^
Frigg’s about to be very surprised.
Calling it now, this tron man is Payet Best. >:D’
Welcome to the club!
I read that “must investigate this further” with Rorschach’s Voice . . .
