The muckrake was part of Zhu Bajie’s punishment… pretty sure. That he happened to weaponise it is pretty much just one of those things that people with farming implements do when they gotta hit something.
My name is Byron Hackenslasher, and I’m an adventurer.
HAIL, Byron!
It’s been three weeks since my last raid. I’ve been trying to stay clean, but last weekend I cleaned out a five-man instance with only three people, and I just… the rush of the adrenaline… It’s hard to describe, and harder to resist it.
In more general terms… in many cultures, being abnormal is regarded as rude… whether it is due to being left-handed or from another culture… or whatever else.
Rose to political power advocating Worker’s Rights. Charismatic leader of aforementioned workers. Followed by his loyalists without question. Operating above the law. Advocating the destruction of a minority religious group for “the greater good” and the protection of society from their “evil.”
Yes, the Witness’s are a ‘minority religious group’, and yes, he did actively order their complete eradication (no comfy camps for them)
Umm, how was he ‘operating above the law’? He was the ‘law’!
I’d almost bet that Frozone finally got his supersuit this way:
Not shown in the movie itself is how Frozone convinced Honey that her evening (which was in the planning for 2 months) would *certainly* be ruined when that giant robot crashes through the restaurant where they’re going to have dinner…
I’m now going to start calling my penis the ‘greater good’. and of course, you know what greater evil it’ll be doing battle with every night to vanquish.
which now makes this whole speech hilarious.
For those who apparently can’t tell the difference between adventurers and National Socialists, this should clear things up: a nice side-by-side comparison.
PS: Read a book or learn to Google. I know the Nazis aren’t still well documented or anything; it’s not as if the History Channel alone based the first four or five years of their existence on WWII documentaries and speculation…
Re-reading the archives, this comic FINALLY revealed to me what “HAWM” stands for. Been meaning to ask, and now I don’t have to! (I’m sure it’s been made clear long before this, I’m just slow.)
The skies grow dark. Large clumps of ice begin to fall on the group. Byron is struck with the realization that his greeting must be changed. When speaking to groups including magic users, his new greeting will be, “Howdy, and well met!”
The greater good, huh? I guess that explains why he wears red.
One axe good, two axes better?
“Has anyone siegn Kyle? He’s about ýea tall…”
“Now, concerning that greater evil -hey, waitaminit. I can’t see any of you guy’s eyes! What the – awww, nuts. Forgot to put my contacts in!!”
Yeah, that weirds me out too. Whatever happened to dot eyes?
Damnit every time he says “The Greater Good” I hear the chanting village elders at the end of Hot Fuzz.
That and the crowd lifting a hand and shouting “hail” has… interesting overtones.
Well, he does seem to get pretty führerious in beserker-mode.
that avatar…
boy do i hope he won’t turn this into a holocaust
Overtones? I found the visual similarity to a Nazi rally unsettling.
Verily, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
First, the cultists. Then the World’s Rebellion. Then everyone who’s not human. Then humans who felt bad about the whole thing.
I think Syr is too smart to let that happen any way other than over her dead body.
Of course, we could always start step three early.
Nah, being southern my mind just goes to, “No, YOU go to Hail!”
Nah, it’s only the Tau.
The Greater Good
My husband and I cannot hear that phrase without echoing it from that movie.
Ha! And I thought I was the only one.
THE GREATER GOOD
the greater good
So many tags…
Choirs; “…for the greater good!”
Wow did the game fail to load the textures properly, none of the Adventurers have eyes.
I don’t know about you, but eye see what they did there as well.
Youngblood’s disease.
Someone needs to upgrade their video card
No. It’s an illusion that was cast on them. They know the enemy has orders not to fire until they see the whites of their eyes > -)
First, we need to destroy the lesser good and then work our way down.
I’m guessing he’s going to want to implement a gear check before sending some of those noobs raiding.
Seriously, you have at least one guy with a gardening rake and another guy with a lamppost. A freaking lamppost! This isn’t League of Legends guy!
Not to mention the fact that I have a feeling not all of those people wearing cloth armor are casters.
Pink box…of..suspense…killing me.
That’s E-Gurls’ repaired hat
Pigsy was armed with a muckrake and he was a former Marshall of Heaven….
The muckrake was part of Zhu Bajie’s punishment… pretty sure. That he happened to weaponise it is pretty much just one of those things that people with farming implements do when they gotta hit something.
Well, if they still made 72 man raids, this wouldn’t be an issue, now would it?

*Golf Claps*
“oh wait. this is the Greater -good- Group? whooops sorry Guys we are in the wrong place,lets rush to the winning Team” (massive stomp off).
Did…Did Rachel bring a cake? Is there enough to share?
I think that’s E-merl repaired hat, considering he’s not wearing it and the box seems to be fitting size for it.
Here today, we’re here today, for the greater good… here today
They came for the cultists. And I did not speak out because I was not a cultist.
Byron’s gonna throw the cultists into work camps isn’t he??
I really hope the Nazi implication was intentional, what with thei “HAIL” and raised right hand. Because if not this is one hell of a screwup.
“Hail” has been a greeting since Roman times
In the majority (if not all) games, which one is the main hand? Correct, the other one
Yes, but in many cultures raising your left hand is seen as a rude gesture as well.
Perspective.
In more general terms… in many cultures, being abnormal is regarded as rude… whether it is due to being left-handed or from another culture… or whatever else.
Wait a second…
Rose to political power advocating Worker’s Rights. Charismatic leader of aforementioned workers. Followed by his loyalists without question. Operating above the law. Advocating the destruction of a minority religious group for “the greater good” and the protection of society from their “evil.”
Shit. Byron IS Hitler.
Heil.
Yes, the Witness’s are a ‘minority religious group’, and yes, he did actively order their complete eradication (no comfy camps for them)
Umm, how was he ‘operating above the law’? He was the ‘law’!
Greater Good? I came because I was lead to believe there would be punch and pie!
“Greater good?’ I am your wife! I’m the greatest *good* you are ever gonna get!”
– Mrs. Frozone
I’d almost bet that Frozone finally got his supersuit this way:
Not shown in the movie itself is how Frozone convinced Honey that her evening (which was in the planning for 2 months) would *certainly* be ruined when that giant robot crashes through the restaurant where they’re going to have dinner…
Awright, I recognize two of the extras, but who are the girl with the stripes on her tabbard and the guy with the lamppost?
Stripes on her tabbard? I think you mean Astoria Troy.
As for the guy with the lamppost, my Best guess is Lectrus.
Am I crazy, or did anyone else see Wonder Woman in the crowd two spots behind Rachel?
You’re totally crazy, but yeah there is a WW look-a-like back there.
That should help even the odds in the adventurers’ favor.
And Rachel made cake for the occasion.
A cake shaped like E-Gurls’ hat
My gaming group has a standing order to kill anyone who talks about the greater good. It’s ususally someone covering an atrocity. ;)
Before you start judging him, he’s a berserker, not a public speaker
And now Byron has the army Brother Tom predicted for him…
I’m now going to start calling my penis the ‘greater good’. and of course, you know what greater evil it’ll be doing battle with every night to vanquish.
which now makes this whole speech hilarious.
You call your hand ‘the greater evil’? o_O

Those ‘nazis’ look more like russians to me (something about the hats)
Meh, the Greater Good is nothing compared to the Elder Goods – Cthulhu, Yog Sweettooth, Shub Cigarette and Nearlylatefortea.
Cthulhu? You mean Cuddleyou?
