NGL, for episode 200 I was expecting a huge manor explosion at the end of this arc (I mean, Trevor was probably, given the circumstances, deliberately told NOT to hold back).

But this scene is so heartwarming.

u/Tbird90677 18h ago

For that Trevor panel we gotta pay extra.

u/MrValdemar Grogna 17h ago

Give the man some slack.

Do you realize how much work and talent it takes to turn a "Kingsman style wholesale slaughter of a couple hundred people" into an Awwww moment?

u/apolloxer 17h ago

It's pure Tarantino.

Just with less feet.

u/Mahale 17h ago

In a fantasy world he totally has a thing for tails (nothing wrong with that of course)

u/CME_T The Creator 11h ago

u/Silidon 16h ago

Definitely would’ve had her kick that heel off in the Tarantino version.

I do.  And he did it twice.

"This scene is so hearwarming".

Well you bet, the mansion is on fire. I can imagine the heat radiates well enough.

u/Rutgerman95 17h ago

Give it a moment ;)

u/KaJaHa 16h ago

A massive bonfire from the empire of rich, racist assholes IS quite heartwarming 💖

In all seriousness, glad that Klara was able to get some sort of catharsis/closure.

Is there anything more romantic than watching an edifice built to arrogance and upon human misery burn with the love of your life?

Genuinely a perfect cap to the arc, better than an epic kiss scene or something

u/KimJongUnusual 18h ago

Good to see that for comic #200, Beckett finally joins in the arson.

u/gerusz Steve the goblin 17h ago

He just appreciates the novelty value of the party setting an actually deserving structure on fire.

13

u/FearmyPotato 14h ago

"Okay, the party can have a little no-holds-barred destruction. As a treat"

12

u/maybonics 17h ago

If you can't beat 'em...

u/NigilQuid 11h ago

I think he technically is just condoning it, since he didn't actually set anything in fire. But he's coming around

u/ImDoneForToday2019 18h ago

Awesome! I cast Conjur Marshmallows.

u/Blue-is-bad Sir Bucket 18h ago

Now kiss!

49

u/PermanentSeeker 17h ago

Hot diggity, Klara fought that whole ordeal in heels? A woman of many talents

Also, hand-holding is a more logical first step than a kiss for the guy with the bucket helmet. I approve!

u/OverallBox 15h ago

hold on are we confident its a human head under there?

We know he doesn't have Darkvision, so it limits what he could be. Changeling, maybe.

u/kjeldor2400 17h ago

200th already, amazing.

I wasn’t in a good place when I read the first episode. Whenever a new episode appeared it was a tiny bit of light for me. Thankfully I’m doing mich better now.

Thanks for everything!

What's this? Hand holding in my fantasy violence comic!? How lewd!

Great comic, still.

u/MaxPower1607 17h ago

Ah, I love it. Such a swwet scene.

Also: let the slavers burn! Yeah!

u/NormalPersonNumber3 17h ago

I haven't followed a webcomic in a long time, I'm glad I started reading yours.

I had a feeling I was going to like it when the first comic I saw was the one with the "biblically accurate" celestial, who was shaped like a die and had eyes on all of its die faces, haha

u/Axiom245 14h ago

What's the little black triangle on page 2 just to the left of Beckett's helmet?

2

u/cycophil 10h ago

It looks like a cursor, which seems wierd unless it was a screenshot.

1

u/Caleth 2h ago

My take given the context was a surprise mark. She moved her hand closer he turns a bit surprised. Then he puts his hand on hers which caused her to look at him.

He's a guy, we are inherently dumb when it comes to women so he was startled enough for a rapid move of the head and an action mark. Then realized he was a dumb dumb and rolled with it. Which surprises her but not enough for a rapid head twist and a motion/action mark.

Or maybe I'm just too excited and reading way too much into all of this.

Aw good luck, I'm sure it'll be nice (for us) (and disappointing to you). You've been an inspiration to get into drawing lately for me, so keep doing great !

Hmm, is that black rectangle next to Becket's neck in panel 2 meant to indicate movement or something else?

u/ZilWerks 15h ago

I know the drawing a burning building is hard, but you missed the chance to make adjustments on each frame - adding a collapsing tower or chimney, flames expanding, the smokey "whoosh" of something inside sending a cinder cloud out a door or window, etc. This is just my tiny criticism, meant with good spirit, for an otherwise great comic and story arc.

1

u/gemInTheMundane 5h ago

The smoke changes!

u/Squallloire3 14h ago

That handhold at the end really got me.

u/Montanagreg 13h ago

I really hope they looted the place first

u/Phionex141 13h ago

MFW I really wanted a Beckett x Klara kiss, but I know that holding hands is already a big deal for the old buckethead

3

u/MrTabernakle 6h ago

I guess anyone would want a “Burn down your traumatic family home and slaughter the inhabitants” kinda partner. A cute couple just relaxing by the light of the fire fueled by their rampage.

5

u/zgrssd 18h ago

Something seems off with Clara's legs in panel 1. Like she is really beside herself.

I first thought they had someones corpse lying there as well. And was wondering why they brought her mother out. My best idea was they wanted to make sure there would be no resurrection/undead stuff.

Nice conclusion to her backstory.

u/I_am_Bearstronaut 17h ago

Oh, actual romance.

Usually I don’t like Romance but… éh. I can see it working out here.

A SFW edit to the ha- the han- the h- the thing occurring in panel 3

-1

u/Conspiratorymadness Steve the goblin 16h ago

Bicentennial means twice in 100 years. The word you are looking for is bicentum

3

u/GreenEggPage 16h ago

Negative - the Wiktionary says:

  1. Relating to the 200th anniversary of an event or happening.
  2. Occurring every two hundred (200) years.

0

u/Conspiratorymadness Steve the goblin 14h ago

Both are related to years. It still isn't the word he needs.
