    oots 665

    There's time for V to have retrieved the books between AFTER killing the dragon, and before he/she joins up with the fleet again.

    OotS #663 up

    My own guess is that 666 will have everyone reunited celebrating alongside the Azurites who are glad to have found a new home. It will be the Number of the Feast.

    OotS #653

    Zardoz, there's TONS of places where V has been called "she". There's also tons of places where V has been called "he". And yet every single time some new page does it again, there's always some person acting as if this happened for the first time, as if there's some revelation that occured...

    OotS #650 is up!

    V is stupid insofar as he doesn't recognize the dramatic conventions that control his world and which indicate that Xykon won't die just yet... ...but if it were the real world, a bold "attack now that you have the highest level of power you'll ever attain" would have indeed been the wisest...

    I just don't get the love for OOTS

    I think you really came to a very erroneous conclusion. Most of Roy's afterlife adventure was about how most of his flaws were about him not being lawful ENOUGH. Same with his dad, who's jerkdom is again revealed to be a deficiency in lawfulness atleast as much as a deficiency in goodness...

    OotS 634

    Which had absolutely nothing to do with her gaining ultimate power: the important thing was to touch the globe, she could have stayed absolutely silent and it'd still work: so how the hell did she achieve power by saying the words? The Giant is yanking your chain so very hard. If we've seen the...

    OotS 634

    It satisfies the "wrong reasons" clause, but it doesn't satisfy the four words clause (he only needed to touch the orb, not say anything), or the "right person" clause (there are three fiends, and he isn't addressing anyone in particular). I still believe the four words are Kubota's killing...

    OotS 631!

    Neither was Haley's gifthorse the means by which she got her speech back, it was her declaration of love. But it was the fact she did not look into the gifthorse's mouth that led her into the position that she had to make the declaration. And there was no literal gift horse, Nale was a human...

    OOTS #629 is up

    No, this is the follow up to V saying the 4 right words to the right being for all the wrong reasons: Giant In the Playground Games Nothing that V will say now in pursuit of trying to save his family can POSSIBLY be for all the wrong reasons. It might be the wrong thing for the *right* reasons...

    Oots 628!!

    I think too many people miss Roy so much, that they fail to appreciate what's present in mere regret for what's past. I don't miss Roy. Honestly I wouldn't mind if he remained away for a few hundreds strips more. I doubt he will remain apart for that long, but I wouldn't mind it at all: This...

    Oots 628!!

    It's V's real children. That'd be just silly on the part of the dragon, since V would have years to hunt her down and kill her BEFORE procreating. It's the artistic aspect of OoTS that makes this possibility impossible. This whole strip has broken through the previous emotional false ceiling...

    Oots 602 "Clerical Temp"

    The mark is activated in 568 The memories are removed from all three in 570 because of the spell covering the region and which automatically removes the memory of everything except the answers offered by the Oracle.

    Order of the Stick 597 is up!

    It's not nearly as clear-cut as that. Those rules-and-traditions are what prevented e.g. O'chul and the other paladins from knowing about the other gates, which means it's also the same thing that prevented Xykon from knowing all about them via torture/psionics/etc already. So that's one thing...

    Order of the Stick 597 is up!

    The idea that Roy has information and that's why they must find him is too obvious a self-justification. The very fact that V was never so obsessed when they were actually helping save the world indicates that it's not the fate of the world that has turned him like this -- it's the loss of his...
