    I think it's hilarious that in their fantasy Belkar is dead (and poor Scruffy). :lol:

    Well, that one is probably a Roy take, as he's the only one who heard the oracle talk about Belkar, so I would suspect it has to be his. I don't believe he shared that bit of news with anyone and, if he did, it would have been Durkon, who clearly preceded Belkar into the great beyond.

    Heh. I wasn't even thinking in terms of prophecies; my assumption was that the fantasy represents what they see as the best outcome in their future. And Belkar is dead. :lol:

    This has to win the award for longest running active thread on BoM?

    Eh? Am I missing something?

    At the risk of being Captain Obvious: I thought the whole battle was an illusion?

    Edit:
    Oh wait... that's what you peops were saying. Misinterpretation. My bad.

    I love latest OotS. (889) Especially because there are some references/jokes about the D&D rules again. I also like the dragons remark. :D

    I love 896's last panel. I didn't see that coming. I'm actually curious as to how Burlew would do at writing novels.

    Ha! 899 is probably the shortest comic I've seen on OotS

    Yeah, but at least the shadow monster (whatever his name is) is finally back.

    We don't have his name, but I believe that Burlew refers to him as the MITD -- Monster in the Dark.

    Did 906 satisfy your impatience Merlanni? It was pretty awesome.

    Durkon...?
    Durkon!
    Without a master, what happens to the thrall? Does he regain his own will, or a new vampire will?

    With his master gone, he'd be a vampire with a free will. Since it's an intelligent being, I guess he regains his own will, but his interests and alignment might have changed.

    Awesome by Nale but I liked Malack :(. I was hoping to see him and Tarquin's crew take on Team Evil :smash:. They're one of the few groups we've seen who could at least give it a go.
