I read it as her looking up to see who's there, not as reacting to that person.

As far as IME goes it's definitely the right color for a Kin, but Scorpion Kin had a red IME so it's possible that an alt Minmax or Forgath also has a light green IME. It's definitely more likely to be an alt Kin though, since Sapphire also shares our Kin's IME color. Scorpion Kin was a different species altogether so perhaps that's why her IME was red instead of light green. Or maybe it's based on the dominant color of a character. Perhaps striped pink and white Kin has a pink IME?

Also if the dominant color thing holds true, it's worth pointing our Chief has the same IME color as Kin (Or a dangerously close color.) so one would argue that One Eye also has the same IME color...

I registered and logged in just to say that if you kill off Kin I may never forgive you, THunt. That being said, thank you for creating the most engaging story I've read in years. You are a true artist, worthy of Ellison or Gaiman. Now let Kin live. Please?

good catch about scorpikin, her IME only appears once

http://www.goblinscomic.com/09132011/

chiefs IME is pale blue

http://www.goblinscomic.com/11052010-2/

whereas our kins is pale green, it's possible, and maybe even likely that One-eye would have the same pale green IME.. a few characters IME seems to reflect the colour of their skin or hair (kin, big ears, goblinslayer, to name a few) and one eye had green skin. however i think if one eye were to come into the story it might have been hinted at more with more than just a passing appearance, unless that is the case to increase the suprise? aaahhh

...i think maybe i want it to be one-eye a little too much

If it is one eye, I'll be disappointed from a storytelling POV. There's no reason for it to be one-eye in this situation, there's no emotional torque to it like there would be for MinMax. I do like One-Eye though, especially for him only having two panels in the entire comic :P

Oh you're right it is pale blue. I wonder who's IME I saw on another page that had basically only Chief on it... I'll look up the page later and perhaps someone can correct me.

Ah, good point. Forgot about him.
He's here
Indeed, it's One Eye that's in the MoM.

Next panel:

Psimax (Looking down at Kin): by all means, drink the healing potion. Your death would nessecitate recalculating any number of variables involving Minmax's relationship with you. I regret the need to cause you pain, but you should thank me. I'm going to remove us all from the wheel of pain called existance.

Important point. If alts don't have to have the same color, that really opens up some possibilities.

Ok, new theory.

It's Forgath-156. In panel 4, Psymax does something ("Fwik") ... that something is shoving Forgath back through the hole outside so he won't have to deal with his screaming. Thus freed from the clutches of Psymax, Forgath's first act is save her life by giving the surprisingly alive Kin the healing potion since he can't cast healing spells without his holy symbol.

Hi Everyone :D I'm a new member, long time reader.. noticed something, but didn't get the chance to read through all the responses, so i'm not sure if this has been mentioned before. However, who's foot is behind Kin in panel 9, then moved in panel 10?

You're talking about the 10-armed statue's right mudhoney-dipped hand, which is barely off-panel without moving as Kin looks up.

That's actually a really good catch. I wonder if it's a mistake.
