  1. NP Comic for Thursday, September 1, 2022

    And he still suspects that something about Ellen is not on the up and up. Or, maybe put better, is on the "Up, up, and away!" And he wants to know more.

    I was thinking (now that I've looked at the table again) that Ellen could give Cheer something to train her magic resistance against, much like Grace was practicing using her telekinesis as a shield.

    It also strikes me that if base-level Cheer is as strong as Elliot, it mightn't hurt for Elliot to start pumping some iron, just to give her a little more edge when all her spare points are needed elsewhere.
  4. Comic for Wednesday, August 31, 2021

    I'd throw Ellen and Justin into that mix. Let's see how strong Justin is, and test Cheer's durability against Ellen's beams.

    Or are just learning something that's gone unmentioned until now. "I'm taking your son to go meet dangerously powerful nonhuman emissaries from a place we know little about." Something like that, for example, might explain such a powerful reaction from people who seem otherwise unnaturally laid back.
  6. Pennsic

    Urban (and suburban) areas do seem to be filled with under-exploited ecological niches just begging for evolution to do its thing and fill them.

    Well, the finial on the staff is a pair of scales. The only meaning of that device that makes sense to me in this context is "justice." So... Equal Rights for Uryuoms?

    When did Susan teach George the Badass Hair in the Wind When There is No Wind thing?

    Invited or not, he should have been expected. Their side obviously has tight controls on crossing from one side to the other, why not our side, whether some naive teenagers were aware of them or not.
  10. Comic for Wednesday, August 3, 2022

    Getting a better look at Ambassador Verres at work has been a treat. His willingness to face personal danger in furtherance of his mission has made Elliot into a total fanboy, but grossed out Grace. The differing reactions of the Griffins is enlightening. It's too bad Lord Tyrant Slayer wasn't there. I hope we get to see his reaction when Tara and Andrea report back. He already knows Ed is brave, will this show of ruthlessness raise or lower his opinion of Ed? And I wonder when we'll find out what LTS was really up to?

    It's always a bit of a shock when we're reminded of just how deadly serious this is to Edward.

    Always assuming, of course, that Rich's knowledge of women is anything other than theoretical. Given how poorly informed his theory is, it seems unlikely that he ever gets practice.

    He's come to the right place. Can't imagine her bothering, though; it would be like shooting ducks in a barrel. Baby ducks. Oh, you meant at card games.

    Was that the one where the watch came off of the propeller, and poor Derwood Kirby was fishing around in the tub for it, while desperately ad-libbing on live TV?
  15. Comic for Monday, July 11, 2022

    My reading is that Mopervile was an unusually magical place before the clog. How much so is unspecified. The clog backed up Magic to 20X that already high level. The clearance will leave Moperville 2X what is was before. So, does that leave the flow at half its pre-clog level? Will that satisfy the inhabitants of Griffinstan? Or will they try to do something about it? Will we see a true World War?

    This does feel like a bit of a cheat, especially since I was looking forward to seeing Pandora soon.
  17. NP Comic for Saturday, June 25, 2022

    So what is Dan setting up here? George querying Nanase about magic? Because she is Ellen's girlfriend, or because he suspects Nanase of also having magical abilities?
  18. Comic for Friday, June 17, 2022

    Particularly if he casts this spell a lot. Which he may, what a useful spell for someone in Ed's line of work.
  19. Comic for Friday, June 17, 2022

    Dwight's in a bad position. He left his post, apparently with what he sees as good reason, but probably without permission, perhaps against orders. We don't know how much his boss values initiative over blind obedience, but taking the initiative always looks better if it all turns out well. That, for Dwight, that seems to mean Liam and Virginia back to their side of the world, him back at his post, and reporting a serious crime that needs investigating, pronto. "Pronto" does not seem to be Liam's priority at all.

    Have Spacesuit, Will Travel by Robert Heinlein really influenced me, not just toward what are now called STEM studies, but towards valuing education in general.

    I watched Mr. Wizard. Don Herbert is one of the people who inspired me to choose science as a career. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that Bill Nye watched him, too.
  22. Comic for Monday, Jun 13, 2022

    This sparks a thought: Is Magic the same entity on both sides of the world? Is it, perhaps, in hope of making sense of the persons it is handing power to, running an experiment? Operating openly on one side, and in secret on the other to find out what works better, for whatever its definition of "better" might be?
  23. Comic for Monday, Jun 13, 2022

    Like it was a person... Tell me, is Magic here right now?
  24. Comic for Monday, Jun 13, 2022

    Oh, sure, make her lose a couple of days....
  25. Comic for Wednesday June 8, 2022

    Now I want baseball cake. I don't even know what that would be, but I want some. I also want to know what Liam was actually thinking. An obviously Yes, but the natives have been getting restless.
