September 02, 2009 strip
NO PREVIOUS STRIP WEEKLY NEXT STRIP LATEST STRIP CALENDAR

Remember what I said about crossing the tails of dialogue balloons in the "news" to yesterday's strip? Yeah... here I go again.

And yes, the creature in the jar has its own font. For some reason. I guess because it wasn't a mortal or a god or a demon, none of the existing fonts fit it, so it needed its own. I'm not sure that was really warranted. (There are, after all, other characters that aren't exactly mortal or gods or demons that don't have their own fonts—the imp creature in the very first strip, for one.)

By the way, just in case anyone gets the wrong idea, when the monster refers to DeVallon as a "rogue", no, he's not referring to the character class. He's just referring to the standard dictionary definition: "A dishonest, knavish person; scoundrel." This isn't a gaming comic, and anyway if we did for some reason want to try to assign DeVallon a D&D character class, I think he'd be more a fighter than a rogue. (Though possibly with a few rogue levels, if we're talking a version that allows multiclassing.)
