Re: 2022 June 1: Big Purple Splash Page
Why only a one-image page?
Now to the actual page: it has not really been described so far, but Complains of Names IME has changed into an "Enhanced IME"...

Thanks for sharing that, Krulle. I had the same question about his IME.

Re: 2022 June 1: Big Purple Splash Page
Way to make the gargoyle feel bad, mr. Suddenly Gigantic Wings.
Sure they were big after the level-up, but I'm pretty sure they've grown from even that...
Tail is pretty much the same, it was hilariously long to begin with. Even before the wings
Can't be just me, can it?

Re: 2022 June 1: Big Purple Splash Page
You're welcome, RocketScientist.
I found this explanation a bit lacking in the comic, so I thought it would be good to add here when Elli tweeted that.
And the Axe-of-Prissan pages are not included in the official comicline. They are canon, but not online.
So they're easy to forget about.
The in-comic explanation so far, by Complains of Names, described
And I'm astonished that Complains of Names is apparently able to tap that effect for this, as he apparently didn't know about, nor have we seen him experiment with it.

Nothing about a physical effect though.https://www.goblinscomic.com/comic/08042006/ wrote:Complains of Names: Y'know how different kinds of wood can sometimes make different coloured flames in a camp fire? Well, it's kind of the same way with magic. When we burn up the magical energy around us, we give off a different visual effect.
Complains of Names: Most creatures just give off a basic colour, but as you gain more power, your I.M.E. can evolve.

Re: 2022 June 1: Big Purple Splash Page
Come to think of it. He didn't have the wings before the angel. So unless he had some ability already with the tail he could have noticed, he's pulling this from his backside and not talking about where the wings come from.

Re: 2022 June 1: Big Purple Splash Page
Here (12 June 2017) he has rudimentary wings, without the "foil" between the skeleton elements...
And here (page 20, 2020 - 3 real-time years later), there are no indication of wings in the first panels, but they grow in panel 4, and in panel 5 he seems to by flying on them.
In hindsight, this explains the action scene a bit better.
But now we know the wings did appear beforehand.
And that Elli had a missed opportunity to tell about the Enhanced I.M.E. and physical effects it might have.

Re: 2022 June 1: Big Purple Splash Page
Ah, so it was before the level-up. Not quite sure how he developed their use then, but at least we know they were a thing already.
