Your small animals will sleep soundly tonight.

 

[Emrys]

Then tell us about your sauna.

#786: One Step Worse Than "Diminuitively"

 

[Dei]

I lol'ed pretty hard at "taking the biggest dump since Elan assigned his intelligence score".

 

[HCGLNS]

Ladies and Gentlemen! Please welcome your reigning, defending, undefeated and undisputed gladitorial champion of the wooooooooooooooooooooooooooorld!

Spoiler

THOG!

Spoilered like a boss!

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Thanks for spoiling the surprise.

 

[Piotyr]

Yeah, that was pretty lame.

Somebody, please, spoiler that shit, so some people can be pleasantly surprised by the actual strip, linked here: #787: No Time For Losers

 

[North_Ranger]

NO, NOT SCHLIM! SCHLE'S A LOVEABLE CHARACTER!! DON'T KILL SCHLIM!!

...

Waitaminnit... How in the name of Thor's lederhosen did schle get in there?!

788 A Vexation Or Irritation

 

[Wahad]

Is it just me, or does Thog look....unusually serious in that last panel? I have a vague sense of foreboding that shit is about to get down, as they say.

 

[North_Ranger]

I just hope Thog lives to fight another day. Call me sentimental, but I have a soft spot for that big ol' loveable homicidal man-child.

 

[Piotyr]

It's weird. No matter how many people he kills, the audience still thinks he's lovable.

 

[North_Ranger]

Zing!

 

[IronBrig4]

Thog is adorable. I can picture Nale giving Thog a comic book and some chocolate milk after a successful killing spree.

 

[North_Ranger]

Or more ice cream to keep him from going on another, unrelated killing spree.

 

[Chibibar]

Or more ice cream to keep him from going on another, unrelated killing spree.

with sprinkles!!

 

[ThatNickGuy]

THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG!!!!!!

*ahem*

Yes, well. *straightens himself up*

That is to say...I am quite pleased by the maniacal ogre's appearance.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

He's an orc.

 

[Gusto]

Half-orc.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Gusto, not gonna lie, I'm liking the "Bond, James Bond" sort of thing we have for informing people of Thog's race.

 

[Gusto]

Brofist.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

He's an orc.

Your FACE is an orc.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

True, but that's hardly the issue here.

 

[North_Ranger]

789 Also, His Popularity Has Waned
Kudos, Rich. You just made me go "BuhuWHAAAA?!"

 

[Hylian]

I must admit I was not expecting that at all

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Holy shit.

 

[Piotyr]

I also love the subtle dig in the title referencing the last time Vaarsuvius saw him.

 

[MindDetective]

I admit, I've forgotten who that character is.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Remember way way way way way back in the beginning when the Linear Guild was entirely a party of Order of the Stick doppelgangers?

 

[MindDetective]

That was a loooooong time ago!

 

[Piotyr]

Crackpot theory of the week:

Spoiler

That green scrying eye in the desert was actually Zz'dtri all along, so Nale and friends have known about the OOTS's position and plans for weeks.

If you think you're posting before that claim you've gone quite mad, sir.
