Page 699…
So how many of you are going to be at San Diego Comic Con in 3 weeks?
Show of hands…
For those of you who haven’t seen it…I have a list of cons I’m attending this year at the bottom right.
I hope to see you guys at one of these.
Have a great 4th of July and see you guys on Monday for page 700!!!!
Well, she has his attention now. XD
Bognok seems kindof big for being a dwarf. I noticed earlier that he was taller than the other dwarves, but now I see that he’s also a lot taller than the humans, too. I think it looks cool, but it makes me wonder why he’s so much bigger. (Maybe there’s a dwarven legend that every x years, the “tall one” shall be born and shall be made king of dwarves.)
Do you foresee any chance of you be attending any cons near the DFW area in Texas?
I’ll be there. See ya then.
I just finished reading through the entire archives and I gotta say, excellent comic! I am thoughroughly enjoying it so far and cant wait to see what happens next 🙂
Seriously, David… I was JUST thinking that. How come the king of the Dwarves is like, the size of an ogre?
whats a ‘con’
maybe he’s not a big dwarf, maybe he’s just a small pale ogre
I just got caught up this week (found it through Foglio’s site) and have been enjoying the story to date.
FWIW, I don’t think that Bognok is necessarily all that huge – there’s some forced perspective on this page that is making him look larger.
-hh
Organ pipes behind the throne? Poor thing to put there. First, that means the fellow in the throne will be nearest the source of the sound. Second, there are two basic classes of organ pipes: flues and reeds. Flues are basically giant whistles (acoustic oscillators) which speak (issue sound) from their mouths. The mouths of those pipes seem to be blocked from the hall; they won’t be well heard. Reed pipes use a metal reed to produce the sound; they speak from the pipe ends. If these pipes were reeds, they would probably work well; the sound goes up to the roof of the hall and gets bounced down. The problem is that reed pipes have to be open at the end, and are usually not completely straight-sided. Their mouths often have a bell (like the bell of a trumpet).
Or maybe those are not organ pipes at all?
anmonymous, “con” means convention
how the heck did that guy even come out of his mom? He’s huge!
methinks the king better watch out for paddingtons left hook if he gets any closer.
wow the king is stupid and 2 huge for a dwarf
Keep telling ‘im! 😀 (I like her “diplomacy.”) It’s straight to the point–I approve of that!
Wow. The composition and lightning on page 699 is amazing. Cinematic but natural.
Amazing story! The artwork is just absolutely gorgeous, and the plot is so captivating! I just read the entire archive today and I couldn’t take my eyes away from my computer. I think that Nastajia and Alexander make such a beautiful couple. Keep up the awesome work, I look forward to more. This is officially my favorite webcomic.
Wonder where Kiwi went?
Goin to comicon. YAYS!
oops, thought I hadn’t posted yet ^_^
Well… The sudden conflict between the elves & dwarves had thrown me off since they fell into that area. -_-
Bognok seems to remind me of someone i know… >_>
huwaa…. =[ my avatar dissapeared!!
Nah, look at Nastajia’s leg on the first step, that’s no forced perspective, the guy’s huge. Makes sense somehow for the dwarf king to be that big. Note that even though he is quite bigger than humans (though still way smaller than Paddington), he retains dwarven features and body build….he is literally a big dwarf, not a tall dwarf…there’s a difference. For one, I like the concept.
what did i tell you…
ELF DIE!
Wow.
I’m really enthralled with this comic.
I really wish I could go to the comic-con to
meet the writer personally, well done!
Oh well, I’m just siked for Monday,
when Pg. 700 comes out. Rock on!
So… Staj’s great plan was to piss off the king with a couple hundred dwarf soldiers at his command?
Seems like a good plan to me.. as he wasn’t listening to reason earlier.. hahaha
One giant dwarf for a king and shes going to piss him off maybe shes trying to get him to do something rash so they can get free with weapons?
NJCommuter: The dwarven king loves his Bach…and I’ll bet the acoustics in there are to die for!
..And then he falls down the stairs.
Alex: “Where did she learn to negotiate like that?”
Kiwi: “I wonder.”
B: watch your tone elf!
alex: oh, so you guys have cell phones in dreamland?
It could be a clever ploy to distract musicians that had come with the intention of assassinating the king….
