        It isn’t a grenade.
        It’s a flash bomb, silly. : P

          It isn’t a flash bomb.
          It is a PAF device, silly.

        Also, I spy a typo! :3 (in the alt text, not the comic) We forgive you.

          Oh, I’d say her actions have definitely peaked louder than his words. Chuckin’ a flashbulb at someone using see-in-the-darks is off the scale.

    THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR MONOLOGING.

    You don’t talk, then shoot!
    You shoot, then shoot again.
    When you’re /completely sure/ they’re dead, then feel free to gloat!

    Been a while since I posted on this, even though I should have. D: I’m getting lazy.
    Have I said, lately, that your work is exemplary, you guys? I like how you’ve done the lighting, the rhymes… Just about everything.

    My favorite bit is Syr’nj’s tongue in panel 2. It shows control and cool-headedness. Panicked folks don’t have the presence of mind to stick their tongue out thoughtfully.

    See? Goggles/sunglasses can be useful!

    This shows that when a bragging sniper is tracking you down the thing to do is throw a grenade in his face.

    It would have been better as a shrapnel grenade that would stab out his eyes and rip up his face with a thousand tiny pieces of heated, speeding metal.

    You might be thinking, “But wouldn’t she get hurt to?”
    No, no she wouldn’t.
    She’s wearing goggles/sunglasses.

    I love how the mystical wood elf is the one that does science to things. Also, I worry for the rest of the party’s eyes. I can only see them milling around going “MY EYES! MY EYES!”

    It might wake our berserker up though. Fingers crossed guys! Also, the sniper reminds me a little bit of Byron’s mouthing. And if I chose.. I would not be the mattress.. I would want to be something useless like fine wine that gives one a hangover. I”m the vengeful dead.

    Rantting. It’s a -1 cndition in any situation. If you’re dealing with heroes, adventurers, [charname]s and/or main characters it is a Dying Horribly condition.

    If I weren’t such an inveterate punster myself, I think this chapters comments would have been enough to turn me off of reading them. There were some ba-ad ones in there. Keep up the good work, and meet me later at Callahan’s cross-time bar, with Justin, the Mick o’ time.

    I’d pick the boots. Somehow, being on some guy’s feet seems so much better than the options of going through the digestion system, or the implications of being a mattress, if you get my gist.

    I would suggest spending it on fast acting poison, perhaps paralysis, for your arrows.
