You just KNEW he wasn’t going to hang out outside forever…didn’t you???
🙂
Yes…Nicodemus got tired of waiting and walked through the front gates of Hilmdel.
Being king of Dreamland and all…he had no problem and I’m sure the other dwarves pointed the way to Bognok.
That being said. I hope you’ve enjoyed where this chapter of the story is going.
We’re almost to the end of Chapter 12. Which is also the end of Book 3…and the halfway point to the whole series.
I’ll reminisce later…when we actually reach that point.
Â
In other news…
We survived Kindergaten Camp (and by me I mean my wife and I…not the kids…who had a blast).
I hope we do as good on the day they actually leave us for 7 hours a day for 5 days a week. Yikes.
Thank you to all who shared similar stories and gave us confidence to “let go”.
Really appreciate it.
Â
Other than that…we’re working hard on getting more books out and hopefully by next week I can start working on Chapter 13 of Dreamland. I really hope so.
It’s been a very busy year for us. And I hope it all pays off one day soon.
Â
As always…i would very much like to thank you all for your emails, posts here onthe blog, posts on the forum, and for just plain coming back here every day.
You all mean very much to me. Your love and support has been inspiring. It keeps me going.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and look forward to showing you more of what’s going on in the caves of Hilmdel on Monday.

Oh boy can y’all say put out dragon king for being found out.
Wow I really love the shadowing for this page! It makes Nic even more menacing! So now that he’s been found out, is he still going to continue the confident king act or he is going to try to weasel some kind of deal with everyone???
I only discovered The Dreamland Chronicles two weeks ago and now I’m a devoted fan. just one question… didn’t Nicodemus get a sword jammed through his thigh only a day or two before? No wound in today’s panel. No scar.
What in the world happened to half-day kindergarden? Those poor kids are going to be stuck in school 7 hours a day for almost all of their formative years anyway, what’s the rush to start them now?
I said it before, I’ll say it again. Oh fudge.
They are in trouble now!
awe Scott you bring a tear to my eye :’) I’m glad to hear the kindergarden thing went well 🙂
Thank you for sharing this great comic with all of us!! And don’t worry, your little guys will do great in kindergarten!! They’ll have some great stories to share with the other kids courtesy of Dad!
I love this comic – my fiance keeps wondering where all the good dragons are. I keep wondering when Alex is going to bring the dragonsmackdown online. But I’m a guy and therefore think all stories need explosions in them somewhere.
Targan…
Thanks! You’re so right. I totally forgot.
ALso…no one else caught the fact that Nic’s Word bubble was white. And not his usual yellow and red.
🙂
Thanks all.
Targan,
He does have a wound. It’s green, and isn’t very large. Also, he’s bleeding on the ground (green blood).
Noticed Nic is bleeding a bit (assuming the green lines on him arm and leg and spots on the floor are dragon blood) – if it bleeds then it can be killed?
Halfway..? Already? But I think I discovered this site only a month ago!
On the other hand, knowing that teh story has an actual conclusion planned just plain rocks. I’m here for the ride. *hangs on tight*
SOrry if I confused anyone. Before I fixed the page…there was no cut on the leg and the word bubble wasn’t the right color. I just fixed it and overwrote the page.
🙂
You sly, error-fixing fiend.
I’m glad to hear Kindergarten Camp went well, and sad to hear we’re about at the halfway mark already. I was at my comic book shop the other day and spotted the first issue of Dreamland Chronicles, so I picked it up. It felt like it had been so long since I had read that beginning, and I came in way after you had started the site! The story has come a long way, and I can’t wait to see where it ends up. 🙂
I just picked up a copy of the 1st issue of Dreamland from the local comic book store. I love the art even more on a printed page than on the web. I’ll definately be buying the monthly issues as they come out, and keeping up with the story on the web. Thanks for doing such a great job!
AHHHHHHH! Holy crap when I saw his foot I was like: “Holy fetchity McFlappypants!!! NOoo!<8( Ugh. That just stinks like whoa. Somebody needs to beat Nick up. X( Er. Anyway, sorry I got excited there. ^^’
I think this is a great “oh crap” moment right here.
“The king, has arrived…” (0_o) Hoo boy, looks like trouble!
Hope you and your kids enjoy the whole kindergarten thing! (Isn’t it ironic how much the parents worry, and how much the kids enjoy themselves?) ^,^
So it is true.
YOU stole the cookie from the cookie jar!
Glad to hear your children did well at kindergarten. Sounds like they were more ready than you were, lol.
I must admit, I was surprised to see his foot, but I guess I shouldn’t have been. Only fitting that this usurper should walk right into the dwarven realm, seeing that only Bognok knows about his treachery. Well done, Scott!
Whew… finally got caught up, and of course its right a good spot so now I cant wait until the next page.
But I am loving the story and the artwork kepp up the good work.
Hey thanks for the kind words about the readers. We wouldn’t be here without all your great work over the years and I personally appreciate the quality, consistency and individualism of TDC. Thanks again Scott and keep up the great work.
Edited? I thought these pages were written months in advance. Are you making these daily? Because if so then the fact that you never miss an update is amazing.
About the missing dialog from 2 pages back… I think it works just fine either way and is, perhaps, just a wee bit more dramatic without.
Uh oh…
Thats quite picture! He looks like he’s gonna throw a tantrum and possibly breath fire!!!
Gee, ungrateful conspirators… All Nicodemus has done is usurped the throne, conspired to teach lies, made treaties with the Nightmare realm. And possibly other high crimes and misdemeanors we are not yet aware of. They should all be grateful for his gifts. Yeah, right!
YEAH! He started it!
TEyjjy comment3 ,
Okay, if Nicodemus is willfully betraying them, I wouldn’t mind seeing this dragon slain. And if he’s possessed…then the plot’s going to get a whole lot deeper.
Alex: “wait, how did you get down here? Tubby the Dwarf there had to squeeze, and you’re much bigger!”
Nicodemus: “Ever Since Bob And George finished, there’s been a few plotholes floating around the internet… I merely used one to leave this universe, then return inside these caves!!!”
Alex: “You MANIAC! You just broke the 4th Wall! Now we’re all doo-”
[and then, Dreamland ended.]
he sooo is gonna squish that ring! i know i would!!!
Coming from you Nic? Pot, Kettle
Autocrats can not break the law.
Shouldn’t he have one on his arm too? Well, maybe a scar or something since it was a while back… but still. That sword has cut him three times now, hasn’t it?
Ooohhh- pretty colors– it’s like his tummy’s glowing!
