[Webcomic] PVP Discussion

Not trying to be too nitpicky with a free comic, but where did those parts of the hammer go? Did Skull just stop the blow with enough force to crush them flat? Is it just a LARP hammer and squished? Or do I have a wrong perspective?

 
The foreshortening would likely obscure that part. Of course, the handle doesn't seem to be going through the center of the head, so you can obsess over that instead.

Benefit of a doubt that it's just perspective.

I don't look at the comic all too often so I have to obsess about something every now and then ;)
It just jumped into my view and stuck. So yeah, it certainly was obsessive.

Maybe it's a mechanical hammer like the Super Sledge in Fallout? It could be that those heads are supposed to piston out on impact, but that Skull is strong enough to hold them in place.
 
Well man, I hope they are happy with their mediocre storyline and constantly late (sometimes never appearing) strip.

Look at it this way: we're talking about it, and WotC by association. Any publicity is good publicity, I suppose.

For crying out loud, for the 9th time this thread alone, everyone can see skull. People who CAN'T see skull are in the minority. It was retconned.
Heh. I have not follow this thread much less reading 50 pages of it ;) I have been reading PvP, but I don't remember about being retcon on that part.

I think the official explanation was in a news post. It basically said, the whole "only pure spirits can see magical creatures" thing was bollocks, something that magical creatures came up with to explain away why some people couldn't see them. The real reason is that some humans simply are not psychologically equipped/prepared to deal with a reality that involves fantasy creatures, and so they just "tune them out." It was a fairly BS retcon at the time, IMO (he later admitted it was just because he'd forgotten about the whole "not seeing skull thing" when he made scripts with people seeing skull in them), but nevertheless, it's now canonical.
