When you forget what the joke was supposed to be, just kick the main character in the nuts. Classic comedy.

Ravens are the news feed of Allfather Odin. They travel the nine worlds and bring him all the news he might need. I had a raven following me all through basic training every time we went into the field. I chose to take it as a good sign, even through I’m 90% sure it was waiting for me to become food.

I think this was supposed to be going somewhere, and then I forgot what it was supposed to be.

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!

I miss being able to brainstorm with @lledra-art and @neshtasplace. I also miss getting @lledra-art to help me with special issues because she can draw.
