(Also, for the benefit of readers who check out the comic but don’t read the rest of the site: I want to point out that I was interviewed on Fear the Boot. Tune in to hear some behind-the-scenes info on the comic and a bit about myself and my experiences playing D&D.)

Doubly nothing required you to be a jerk about it.

Typo: “Orthand” should be “Orthanc.” Love the capture of Grima’s impalement.
^this is the correct way to point out a typo.
Just saying…
Oi! Seems like this week image is missing.
Trolls are inherently losers, if they were capable of making something worthwhile they would. I very much appreciate your work on this website in general and this series in particular. Maintaining the original feel of the site while updating the graphics must be a challenge. Peace to you all
