Ok then. Fumbles wants to be powerful. Names isn't all that great with words, and Demons can sense souls through all those walls. We also have two party members down and one is a bit tied up at the moment. This could redefine interesting :lol:

Going to be interesting when Kore shows up and has to figure out which "demon" to kill first.

EDIT: I'm going to sadly admit that just today I realized that Vorpal's forehead carving reads "MONSTER". Why did I never notice that before?

You probably did, just suppressed that fact.

Depending on how THunt draws Fumbles' face, it can be hard to see that the scars form a word. Also, if you're a recent reader, you may have skimmed through the portion of the comic that drew a lot of attention to it.

Skim! Skim! SKIM! BURN THE HERETICS

Hmmm, I guess I can see that point, although admittedly seems a bit weird to skim a webcomic, but hey ho to each their own.

I also guess once you know it says monster its not easy to see it as anything but Monster.

HAHAHA! Yeah... Some people, not me, but some people read full archives in a single day or over several days for really long comics, which would mean that some skimming would be required, even if it is just skimming of the pictures.

And thats why you have to read the whole stuff at least ten times. Not like I did it, I just heard someone else did such a thing. I would never, ever re-read the whole comic like once in every two or three months. I would never do such a thing. It would be very geeky thing to do. :paranoia:

Dang, we all forgot that the flea demon is attracted by souls, and they just summoned many teller "soul imprints"....
They seem to attract the flea demon as well....

Dang!

Now these soul imprints will RUN for the new teller.
Also: is Fumbles wearing "the" coat?

I bet this means Fumbles gets his way. He wants multiple imprints, but Complains wants to shut the portal ASAP. With Complains distracted, Fumbles has his chance.

Didn't they get rid of the flea demon previously?
Or was it just disabled for a moment, because it's a demon and it needs to be banned through a ritual or something?

You forget, they're -fleas-. There isn't just "one" flea per dog...

And on the "Sacred", there must be thousands...

Ah, I see, that's not the same demon!
I didn't though about that...

And that would indeed be a "good" time for Kore to show up.

EDIT: Maybe it's intended for Patreons. I'm happy with that.
Anyone try to make out Complains words in tiny-print on the third panel? I think I see the last line as "to the Goblin God" but I'm really not sure of much.

Whats the small text say in the bottom corner of the 3rd panel? I can't read it clearly, but somebody with better eyesight and/or monitor might be able to.

Patrons might be able to read it when we get the HD page, but...

No, that's not the pain cloak. The pain cloak is blue, this one is black. We see Minmax carrying both of them here. The pain cloak is the blue one over his arm. He's got the black one over his shoulder, but we don't know what that one does because it hasn't been mentioned anywhere.

So, just a ceremonial cloak, then....

I guessed it would not be the pain cloak (especially since Complains of Names used it to wrap up the Axe of Prissan), but I still wondered where this one came from.

Apparently, it's a G:AR card, so we do know something about it.

Kind of reminds me of Fezzik.

Anyway, it's part of the loot Minmax rescued from the explosion.

Anyone else annoyed that they found out that the wall identifies anything, yet Fumbles didn't bother to check what, exactly, his staff does?

It seems like it could be important to know before you go into a life-or-death ritual.

I guess I tend to focus more on the text bubbles than the pictures. But like I said, I was disappointed in myself that I didn't notice it until Monday.

Am I seeing too much into the artwork, or are the soul manifestations in panel 7 forming up into a letter H? For Herbert?
