(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized family reunion.) If you only follow my webcomics posts, you may not know why there have been, well, none of them recently, which is that I’ve developed more of an emphasis on schoolwork recently. And between that and my football posts, I stopped reading OOTS for [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized perky eyes.) I still can’t get over what Rich did three strips ago. He took one of the most clichéd setups in all of literature, one of the most anticipated comics in the entire strip and one almost guaranteed to be hard to read, and gave it a [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized Darth Vader impression.) I am in no condition to be doing the heavy thinking required to make a blog post, let alone the schoolwork I’m behind almost the entire quarter on. (Let’s just say Thursday wasn’t a very good day for me.) But… damn if Rich [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized coordination.) Back in September, I stopped following OOTS and instead started on an archive binge from beginning to end. Last month, I finished it. Now, part of the reason for the binge taking so long was because of a side project I was working on at [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized metaplanets. Despite the title, this is part of the “monthly” OOTS post series.) I already had only a vague idea where OOTS would go entering the next book. The one thing that seemed certain was that the OOTS was headed for its next showdown with Team [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized harmless moments.) This post is really an excuse to talk about the two prior strips. After all, I’ve been sorely remiss in not posting on #665, which at long last returned Roy to the land of the living. Not only did Roy originally die in #443, [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized second chance(s).) Curse you, Rich Burlew. I was all set to have a nice, enjoyable weekend where I could focus on finishing off some assignments for one of my classes, and you had to go and put up this whopper last night. Uncharacteristically for this comic, [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized doors! Why did it have to be doors!) There’s… a lot of stuff going on here. There’s so much going on that I even have more titles than I know what to do with. First, a lot of the thinking I had in mind for what [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized end of the line.) Technically, I still owe you an OOTS post for April, and this doesn’t count. But it does give me some ideas for a full-fledged OOTS post, which I was planning to have next week… assuming I can get a post I was [...]
(From The Order of the Stick. Click for full-sized reunion.) The Order of the Stick – with the exception of a living Roy – is in one piece once again. The great, overriding problem driving much of the action of the current book has, at long last and at much cost and after many story [...]
