I have no idea how I managed to draw this.

Carrying another helmet would ruin the disguise, but walking into a northern camp with the wrong colour of duct tape on your helmet can be dangerous.

For those who missed the earlier issues: At the Pennsic War, each side wears either red or blue tape on their helmets to show which team they’re on. My team has traditionally been red.

When Vindalf is really mad, he swears in Dwarven.

Much later, I decide that the helmet Vindalf is currently wearing has a back story.

In WW2, at least two prisoners escaped from maximum security POW camps by doing exactly this. They secretly made German officer uniforms and walked out the front door. There was one sentry who tried to ask for ID, but they just yelled at him for not saluting. Bluff check: Natural 20.

I wish I was that coordinated. Wait, how is he moving exactly? Best not to think too hard about which hand goes where.

“Bugerit millennium hand and shrimp” is, of course, a reference to Foul Old Ron from the Discworld series.

I don’t think that sneaking should really be accompanied by yelling at your party not to follow. But I always do, because I am terrible at sneaking.

At Basic, they gave me the “light” machine gun and radio, and told me to sneak up to the target. This is about what it sounded like: https://youtu.be/PrQQZuLru9s?t=32s

Hey, why aren’t the arrows on fire? All fantasy arrows have to be on fire, if you believe movies.

The best moment in movie battle history was in “Timeline”. The enemy *doesn’t* set their arrows on fire! The use of these “Night Arrows” is clearly cheating, and everyone is offended!

This is why *I* drive places. I’m so used to driving that I get car-sick as a passenger . I think something and the car doesn’t do it, it hurts. Also, most of my friends don’t drive at all, so I am the only choice for pilot.

That map is my attempt to draw the Kingdom of Ealdormere in the Society for Creative Anachronism. Vindalf’s world is highly inconsistent being both medieval-fantasy and modern. The geography tends to change based on what I can draw.

Next issue is #200, and a special guest comic from @lledra. Make sure to follow and enable notifications to see that!

That puts us half way through my reserves. I really should start working on new ones…

And yes, I see the typo, but I’m not about to fix it after 12 years. It’s traditional now.

So, it turns out that attacking a bunch of Jedi is a bad idea. Especially if you’re a team of three idiots armed with cheap laser swords and no reconnaissance.

On one side, I just heard Darth-tagnan shouting “Avenge me!” as he went down. Our other companion was not to be seen, but his girlfriend (now wife) was telling him to just stay down.

Luckally, I had a plan. I bought a few gallons of the legendary Pennsic chocolate milk right before our raid on the Kingdom of Lochac. It was enough to ransom our freedom.

They did make us eat some Vegemite to learn our lesson. 😛

The number of followers my terrible comic has is getting out of hand. 6 more and we get a bonus issue. :-p

You guys are going to make me start drawing again. Who has time for that?

Samuel L Jackson when, playing Mace Windu, wanted a purple lightsaber. Fans have spent ages trying to ascribe meaning to the colours of the sabres and what does it mean to have only one purple?

It means you can instantly see Mr. Jackson in any of the wide shots when his weapon is lit.
