Kin GS is the one that scares me the most.
Great panel layout, you can see this one took A LOT of work.

I love the Minmax off to the side of the tower just chillin', flying up lazily thanks to Klik.

He looks like "Wellp, better go see what the big fuss is."

So much alt versions of FMK, it's crazy! Some of them look pretty bad-ass while others are just terrifying. I wonder how Minmax will weigh against them. What do you think will happen? Maybe it's finally time for Psimax to show up and shout "Dafuq!? You f*cked up my whole formula, you bald idiot! I will have to personally deal with you and your two friends saving you from those alts who are about to fight you!"

I don't get the reference of what MinMax is saying?

I like the title of this topic more, that the other one.

Re-read the beginning of the zombie fight to get the reference.

I wonder if the next page is gonna be another storyline, seems like a proper point for a switch.

Great we got trolled by Thunt with the sneak peak of the red helmeted Minmax a few pages ago.

I am waiting to see why the tower is threaded. Maybe it is/was intended to lift the winner up to the opening.

But they're not screwed yet....

I can tell why THunt has been dreading this page! It is packed with so many Other Kins and Forgaths and Minmaxes that it makes my head spin! Now we discover if our Minmax is the best of them all!

looks like minmax is in a bit of trouble. He has the advantage of having full hp and a powerfull oblivion sword.
The alts probably have been dealt some damage in the previous battle and some of them might be taken out easy.
It seems to me they are going up on our minmax. He might go down very quickly if they all attack him. If the alts know he tossed the keys away then they might be a bit pissed at him.
I think minmax can not win this battle without some sort of intervention. Like psimax showing up or a shield of wonder being activated or maybe a trap in the tower that triggers.
anyhow we need a gamechanger otherwise minmax is done for.

In order to kill a appealing character like minmax you might first want to let the audience like him. Otherwise his death won't generate the drama the writer is looking for.
Is this scene gonna end in drama? or is it just the suspense and anxiety that he wants his readers to feel? I'm pretty sure the emotional payoff for this scene will be sensational if it either ends bad or good.
Heroic sacrifice is a great way to go out. The DM can finally get rid of this overpowered character... RIP Minmax or goodluck

So much for "the mouth will close" + "up you goes". I guess you need to pull only the eye-key to raise the tower.

So he shall now battle 2 of the giants, GoblinSlayer Kin, Red Helmet, and a Junior infused MM with a Klik assist. Levels will be gained on this day.

I kind of hope most of it is off screen, just a flash of the rest of the people in the room being dead with an exhausted MM with blood dripping off of Oblivious.

It's that AltKlik that worries me just a little. We know what he can do (how he saved Dies' life the first time), what he may do (the arm pulls a Junior at the worst possible moment), and who knows, he might even try to eat Oblivious.

I doubt that'd be a very satisfactory meal.

Yay, the red helmets finally reveal themselves (well, one of them at least)

Of course, it's nothing but empty calories. You eat a sword made of quasi-oblivion and twenty minutes later you're hungry again.

I'm thinking Minmax is screwed. Rage only lasts for like 9 rounds at the maximum (10 if you're a Dwarf or Gnome or something - hah, I just decided I have to make a gnome barbarian). MM is only level 3 so he gets no iterative attacks; he might have Cleave, but I'm pretty sure he can't have Great Cleave, so at absolute best he can put down 18 alts in 9 rounds, and probably not that many if he targets the most dangerous ones first. After the 9 rounds (less if his CON isn't 18), he'll be Fatigued, and he'll still have a dozen or more alts gunning for him.
You either die Chaotic, or you live long enough to see yourself become Lawful.

My first thought on seeing this page:

"I am Yulaw! Nobody's bitch! You... are mine."

Somewhat appropriate, since it was a movie about killing alternate selves.
