Is there some ‘bad end’ I never saw? Because it doesn’t look like Anne and co finding Jason and the love of his life at that very moment stopped him from being made to join a harem.
Jason was just being dramatic… but now that you say that… we may need to get that Bad End created!
Really? That would be cool! I know you guys don’t have the cash to spend. But what WOULD BE the ‘bad end’ for that scenario Jason joking described? Are the harem girls regularly brain zapped or something? You have my attention.
Or were you not interested in brainstorming and that was just a joke?
I was thinking about it seriously. I still am. We will see what the future holds!
I like brain storming this kinda stuff.
So is the brain storming a closed doors thing? I understand.
But… There already WAS a bad ending…
http://www.thewotch.com/?comic=bad-ending-1 Oh. Wait. That was a bad ending. This would be a bad end. My bad. Nevermind.
I meant for the idea of Sonja unwittingly ending up part of the harem she was sneaking through.
Will the commentary for older arcs come back?
Because of the crash, the commentary for the older comics was lost. I could go through, comic by comic, adding it once again. But sadly, I don’t have time for that. I know I could scour the Wayback machine to find some of the commentary, but again, that takes a lot of time.
So, short answer, the older commentary is gone.
Thanks for the answer. Robin or Annie? Good to see the comic updating again after leaving it alone for a few years!
Careful when using comics as a reference for mythology; they tend to alter details to fit their story. Look at what Marvel did with Loki and Thor, for example.
Specifically, Journey into Mystery #114 casts Idunn in a blatant pastiche of Little Red Riding Hood, so it might not be the most accurate source.
Who’s to say the Gods in question didn’t decide to get with the times? If it gets them what they want why wouldn’t they change their image and/or tactics? And Hermes and Loki would likely have an easier time of it.
After all, most of their divine portfolios are still in use in modern society.
Actually we last saw that spell back in Neighborhood Wotch (http://www.thewotch.com/?comic=neighborhood-wotch-7), unless that was a different but visually similar spell.
Good catch! I’d forgotten about that one… probably because i didn’t color it myself.
Magic approaching, a mystery probing;
Whither will wend now our wondering Wotch?
Mythoses mixing may riddles unravel;
Or, falsehoods a-following, blunder and botch.
Hope is our helmsman: the stars for its steering,
Only the author may fathom their fate.
Blink we in blindness, our guesses a-groping:
Patient we pause, while their weird we await. 7@=e
— Going Postal —
A spell of tracking, seems awfully handy.
For postal services, that’re servicing Tandy.
Just follow the bouncing, balls of bright light.
When delivering parcels, keep sparks in sight.
No need for addresses, in handling the mail,
Just use tracking spells, and follow that trail.
If your package is lost, during transit somehow,
Just cast a trace spell, to track where it is now.
Goods received broken, or smashed into bits?
Simple track down duct tape, glue, repair kits…
🙁
