I still don't buy that. At the very most, I'd say Kore might be one of Forgath's brothers. Those who got the other equipment that goes with his "This is a Helmet" helmet.

I seem to remember a joke from when Kore losing his beard was the update, to the effect of "His breastplate is totally going to have a plaque under that beard saying This is a Breastplate." :D

A recent built up in evidence strongly suggests Minmax has an abusive relationship with glass windows.

No, I don't buy it either. It doesn't seem to me to fit in the context of the our setting. All I implied is that those assumptions would provide him with a VERY high level.

I certainly had never noticed the one that Thunt revealed in the Altsplanations #2, that the innkeeper is the one that strikes Fumbles...

I just noticed that Names' torso changed after almost getting turned into a demon

Before : http://www.goblinscomic.com/07112008/

After : http://www.goblinscomic.com/12172010/

Looks scaly, a neat little thing I never picked up on, I actually thought there was no physical change to him from the fight other than the lost "pinky"
I don't really know...

His feet changed as well. Normal gobs have three toes on the front.

.... I'd never noticed the fangs and claws. I had noticed the rib-cage area... but for some reason I think I attributed that to Thunt's drawing style and change! Wow. That's way more obvious to have seen that! Good catch Jeb!

Huh. This one is new to me. Look very closely at Complain's hand (panels 12 and 14). He has a scar where he lost his pinky, but it's black from his demon blood. Nice touch.

I didn't realize what "part demon now" met. He really did undergo a huge change.

Funny, I just found a new item - that's related to this topic:
While Names is being transformed to part demon his blood color changes. at the first panel, his wound on his cheeck is red - and on the next panels, as he transforms, the blood becomes black...

Remember the giant talking, future-seeing face in Brassmoon? Dunno if this was ever brought up before, but I have an idea how he got there. According to the Shield of Wonder guide, in the Extras section of the comic page, effect #24. Possibly the elf originally got it from Brassmoon? Just looking around for ideas when I noticed that

Earlier in this thread, I pointed out the face on the Wall. It may actually have gotten there because of Complains of Names and not the "original" Adventurer.

Ah. I coulda sworn the face was already there when the GAP first arrived there, but I often get things chronologically incorrect. Come to think of it though, I don't remember actually seeing the face until after Minmax and Forgath arrived. Hmm...

This is the first appearance of the wall

Throwing in my vote for it was an elite that got changed by the Shield of Wonder while fighting Names.

Eh, but I think they said somewhere it was the "famous talking wall of Brassmoon city".

If so, I think it might have been the wall that said that, no?

(I can't quite remember either.)

With that, I'll throw my hat in that ring too. The wall is even yelling. To me, I think a soldier got changed mid battle cry or something like that

GUYS! I have a big problem!!!
The following conflict started when.....

I noticed something which might be a loose end or something Thunt has forgotten to show...

http://www.goblinscomic.com/01062007/

In this scene big ears is under the sewers in brassmoon and talks with fumbles. Thunt goes on to show us how big ears deals with the injustice of fumbles being tortured and a dramatic moment follows...

HOWEVER
Complaints also climbes a pillar and also spots something. He tells everyone: GUYS! come and look at this!
He gestures with his hands......BUT,... we never get to see it!

Am i reading this scene wrong?
Has Thunt forgotten about it?

Since day 1 when i read this comic this has been bothering me. It has made my daily life difficult as i continue to wonder what it is complaints has seen there...
It has obsessed my mind so much that i had to quit my job, dump my girlfriend and started to use drugs. I feel my life might be in trouble if i don't find the answer soon!

I think Names is seeing guards coming near, just like Thaco said. Thunt just needed something to make Ears get out of there. Or maybe I'm reading the scene wrong. Who knows.

Don't worry, it will all be ok. You can quit the drugs and hook back up with your girlfriend now.
