Wolfsire: Phony? What gave it away? The red headed elf?

Each of your comics is a gem, Mort, but I'm still waiting for more on the 'stealthy cultists storyline' that you promised. Can't wait to see what happens should they get their hands on the actual Codex! |
Mystic-Scholar, I feel a need to clarify. The last cultists strip -was- stealthy because they weren't in it yet it was part of their storyline. And believe me, after all that has transpired they DO have the actual Codex. No other book could cause so much destruction and panic among gods and mortals.

Heh. "I could've specialized in nice, quiet daggers. Or maces. Or thrown weapons. But nooooooo, I had to go and pick swords..."

Yeah, nothing like a nice envenomed dagger, BG!
Nice work Mort, as always.
Like the various links to famous swords.
How about one with the Cultists holding the Sword of Damocles thinking that its really the Sword of Kas!

Nice work Mort and a great list.
How about this: Geshtai meets the Shah of Waters for dinner.
With Kundo supplying the background music!

Crag: Thanks and it is a possibility I could parody all of the D&D ads but right now the one is fine by me. I chose it because of the action/content rather than start with #1 if you'll notice. Now if there were some other goofy D&D ads out there....

It's amazing how far Golarion has progressed already. Paizo is on their 4th AP I believe and they have entire World books, Deity books, etc. plus their own setting specific RPG set out. All that was once directed at making Greyhawk stuff. Tsk!

I know I always keep complaining about the same thing, but figure what would have happened if Paizo managed to buy copyrights over greyhawk. The recently released Cities of Golarion which contains 6 detailed cities could have described in detail Hardby, Rel Astra, Rel Mord etc...
AND they would have done it with fan support, listening to our requests and complains.
I just shiver at the thought of Greyhawk in the hands on deisgners like Bruce Cordell (not attacking the person of course, just his professional works which, in my opinion, are among the worse in the history of D&D).[/b]

Well as Bruce Cordell goes I think he was pretty good myself. He basically was responsable for the Far Realm in D&D and his niche since then had been Cthulhuian horror stuff. What has he done recently in 4e? I have no clue, but my finger is definitely off his pulse.
As to paizo and fan collaboration, not only do they listen to us, they also have been holding annual designer contests to find new talent, unlike WotC which since the Digital Initiative has increasingly been circling the wagons, staying inhouse and even doing their annual lay offs of D&D staff. What hope could a newb writer ever have getting published in Dragon/Dungeon now?

You guys are just bound and determined to depress us, aren't you?
Not happening!
Thank goodness for Canonfire! Well keep Greyhawk going on in hearts. I've no doubt we can outlast WotC and their insane business decisions. Paizo may end up with Greyhawk yet.
There's always hope! _________________ Mystic's web page: http://melkot.com/mysticscholar/index.html

Wolfsire: That was not the Needfest Special. You'll know it when you see it.

Don't be disappointed Mort. There are a great many starlets that I am unfamiliar with. I don't keep up with Hollywood, nor do I see that many movies these days (not too many interest me).
I'm sure plenty of others knew who she was. Personally, I think I may have heard her name on the news, or something. But I'm unfamiliar with Megan's "work." And I don't care for Angelina anyway, so you made the better choice.
Thanks for the info. _________________ Mystic's web page: http://melkot.com/mysticscholar/index.html

Rasgon: These things start out so innocent and then turn epic. Man I'm glad it's done. The Rary-Rob pic is from LGJ #21 I think. The first article of two about the Bright Desert by Creighton Broadhurst.
Mystic Scholar: Yeah I dread needfest evey year and it seems I procrastinate harder each time. When I say its a Needfest miracle I don't kid. These things are hard to get finished in time. Whew!

Yes, I think the red sweater really complements' Vaprak's greenishness. The irony of Hruggek wearing a scarf is subtle too. As for 'Kirt'ulmak, he likely slew an elf to get that green hat.
