If you are looking for another comic that's as much fun as Wapsi Square , may i recommend Calogrenant , the tale of a newly-made Knight of the Round Table who runs into some ... interesting ... magic in the dark forest. Including a few filler pages, there are 436 pages of it so far, and it updates a...

I don't think that's Stinky...

Speaking as someone who was a victim of violence and has been first or among the first on scene at several fatal wrecks and other wrecks involving dismemberments, you never get over it. You might learn to live with it because there's no other option, but you never get over it. :shock: Something i q...

Atsali knows some ...Castela has been told some ... not sure either really realises what they've helped/are helping Katherine survive.

That's the one . . . for some reason, I thought Nadette had a computer, not a book. --FreeFlier Pretty sure that this is the one you were remembering. {I made one small change from Paul's original; Nadette's eyes were the perfectly round white blanks he likes to use to signify that someone's gyros ...
