      And in the meanwhile… he got a real sword just to save his glowing stabbingshit for the big guys, or he just got that one feat that upgrades those glowy craptifacts to be made of actual, solid, permanent matter instead of temporarily solidified willpower and pixie dust?

    Sorry to be “that guy,” but top panel, second text box–should “chaning” be “changing”?

      It’s good you chainsaw that one and let the creator know. Otherwise it might stihl have had the same error when I read it.

    AWESOME! Bottom panel, far right: a rare sighting of the “Chesticorn”, a variant of unicorn that has a sternal placement (as opposed to skull placement) of it’s bony horn … oh, wait … that’s a spear.

    NEVERMIND.

      Dang it! And I just emailed the International Society of Chesticornologists!

      Well, I suppose it’s lucky for me that they’re fairly old-school and would rather spend the day pontificating and getting their theories off their chests than fire up the scary computer.

      Even Audubon (sp?) are on Twitter nowadays, right?

      No, you were right. Chesticorns are more common than you think.

      Live ones? Not so much.

      Yeah, was going to say: poor Chesticorn (or ‘Chesty’ to his stable friends, his unstable friends don’t communicate much), but at least he got a couple hooves in before going down (that is, if he goes down)

    Watching this picture I got reminded of a certain video. Now, I do not personally mind the idea of one-hit kills or cleaving in video games (it’s spectacular and fun) but if you were ever wondering about the realistic possibility of a cleaving attack (through multiple enemies) I rather liked this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TB_i2QjH2wE

        Really like how he is not dismissing the ideas, just saying not to rely on it happening, plus he goes on to explain why instead of the typical “It’s not going to work, ever!” and leave it at that

      His manner of speaking surprised me too. I didn’t imagine him to be the type to say “ain’t” or “y’know,” though he’s still obviously an intelligent-enough man. It’s cool to see how much information the creators are packing into a few lines and the color of the box.

        Actually, I just re-read Silver Centurion’s previous entries, and at no point does he sound similar to the narration we’re reading here. Something is definitely up, though I think it is too early to say what.

          I thought it was pretty obvious that we’re listening to Goblaurence (sp?) talking.

      Fixation on engineering, intelligent enough to use better grammar yet gives no f’s, and grey-green text boxes similar to his skin and clothing color.

      Yep, I’d say that’s Goblaurence.

    Reminds of the great conversation in Star Trek 6:
    >>General Chang: “To be or not to be?” That is the question which preoccupies our people, Captain Kirk. We need breathing room.

      I fucked this up somehow. The quote is this:

        Then, as an addendum, I wanted to write this:
