Mashadar Mistborn he/him Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) Number 1011 is up. Edit: Fixed it! Edited November 7, 2015 by Mashadar Mistborn 1
WayneSpren he/him Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Number 1111 is up. I wonder if the Giant will make a comic called "Yellow Means Slow" to stay in theme.
Haelbarde he/him Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Number 1111 is up.There were 101 new comics just posted? O.o. 1

Iarwainiel I she/her Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Just found this thread - good to see other 17th Sharders are OOtS fans too. :-) I've never played D&D, so it has been fun learning all the jargon (XP, NPC, etc.) as well as enjoying the story. I'm waiting for Belkar to join the current fight. IMO the real Durkon has to reappear soon - this vampire thing has been going on for quite a while. Do you think we'll we ever find out what the "monster" under the pink kitty umbrella is?

Do you think we'll we ever find out what the "monster" under the pink kitty umbrella is? Yep, I'm over Durkula. Come on, Belkar! Is now your time to go out in a blaze of shoeless glory? We will; Rich has said as much. He has plans for exactly what the Monster in the Darkness is and does, but I expect we won't see it until the end of Book 7. So it's gonna be a few more years.
Haelbarde he/him Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Reading this, it's nice to know that a few of the things that have confused me (Shadow monster under the umbrella, V's gender) are universal and intended mysteries.
Quiver he/him Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Where's a sexy shoeless god of war when you need one? Actually, I'm very curious how this fight will be resolved. Belkar dropping in out of the blue might seem Deus ex Machina-ey, especially since (as far as we know) he's still alive, so he can't get through the Anti-Life Sheel anyway...
Iarwainiel I she/her Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Ooooh - what about Crystal? Is there a way for her to show up? She's not alive, though her focus is pretty much just Haley. Also, IIRC, whatever is inhabiting Durkon is/was a shaman, but since he's there as Thor's representative, maybe there will be some kind of technicality that will get him booted out? Or maybe Thor himself can solve the problem. Wasn't he chatting with Hel when Durkon died still praying to him? - so this whole thing is knid of his fault. Really hoping for a new strip this week. :-)
Iarwainiel I she/her Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Monday morning & 1012 is up. Looks like some of your guesses were spot-on! I'm thinking, though - Durkon was Thor's cleric, but Durkula is actually there representing Hel. So Thor still could send a representative, right? ... and break the tie? He'd probably want to do it just to thward Hel. Better yet, our own Durkon is [1] not alive, [2] already inside the antilife shell, and [3] would surely be happy to cast Thor's No vote. I'm thinking it's time for the real dwarf to come forth. :-) [* Edited to get rid of auto-symbols when I wanted ordinals...] Edited November 16, 2015 by old aggie 1
WayneSpren he/him Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Comic 1013 is out! And I must say it is great. 1
Quiver he/him Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 1015 is out! He's baaaaaack! Also, "I'm not emotioanlly equipped to deal with bad things happening to good people". That is some surprisingly insight from the sexy shoeless god of war. 1
Elanicalicus Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 1017 is what we're up to now. Does Roy count as the bodyguard of that one zombie now? He was Dorkula's bodyguard before... 1
WayneSpren he/him Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Strip 1022! Roy broke a stick. He broke. A. STICK. They must be declaring war on this fandom. Quick, assemble the stick-a-paults!

WayneSpren he/him Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 I'm sorry to say that the stick-a-paults proved faulty, seeing as how they were made of investiture and cookies. ...GiantIP may have gotten away with stick-breaking this time, but we will have revenge...

But it wasn't Stick. It was his eeeevil alter-ego, NecromancyStick. 2
WayneSpren he/him Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 But it wasn't Stick. It was his eeeevil alter-ego, NecromancyStick. Oh. Maybe I shouldn't have invested in all those catapults, then.
Kobold King he/him Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 In case anyone didn't already know... The most recent comic, "Mark of Distinction," is a tribute to a member of the Giant in the Playground forums who passed away in 2013. Rich Burlew asked this member's wife whether there was anything he could do, and she told him that her husband had always wanted to see a walk-in character with his screen name in an Order of the Stick comic. This member went by the name Wrecan. He was, among other things, known for starting a massive project to count the number of strips every single OotS character appeared in, which is why the comic version of him apparently "likes counting things" enough to leave notes in the margins keeping track of how often different legacy bearers are mentioned. Just thought you'd all want to know who this strip was a tribute to. 1
Quiver he/him Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 I admit, I didn't know that. (To be honest, I thought the counting things was just a side character quirk, possibly like...uh...that kid in Elantris whose name I can never remember). This adds a new dimension to Roy's "Wish I had known you better" line though... 1
Kaymyth she/her Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 Yep. He posted about it on his main site the day he introduced Wrecan as a character.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 1026 is Live. Or Undead. Vampires man.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 Does anyone know how long it's been in universe since the Pyramid blew up? I'm trying to figure out how long Xykon's been at the last gate, since he teleported directly there.

I'm trying to figure out how long Xykon's been at the last gate, since he teleported directly there. I'm really not sure. That'd be a good question to search for/ask on the GitP forums.
WayneSpren he/him Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 1028! I hope there's not a mutiny before the Order reaches the dwarven lands. We the fans really do not need more stalling right now.
