You can see for “miles.” With an “s.”
It might be foggy.
My guess is that the portal is located in that well/pond.
I agree.
And that’s how Modest has actually got to real world for the first time.
Modest has already been shown to have first escaped the castle, gone to a pond in the woods, and then traveled to our world after getting eaten by some monster. I believe the implication here is that Marah isn’t here for the exit, she’s here for the Prince.
Oh, true! Them maybe it’s the chainsaw unicorn who has already used the pond to get to Jake’s house?
You got a cool castle to explore. Forget the portal.
Maybe the portal is up the stairs, behind that big chair.
I’m guessing Marah lied. She’s out for blood.
Beautiful stuff, Jake. I know you’re busy but you have poster material in just about every other strip you draw these days.
I was wondering why they just let them walk right into the throne room.
It is odd that she’s the one casually surveying the room when the idea was to need to run to the thing immediately.
Love SotC, by the way. =D
Then Jake goes and belches out the entire plan without considering there might be someone actually occupying the throne room besides themselves.
I mean, hiding behind or up in a tree isn’t something that is out of the question. Maybe even under the stairs.
Then again, I’m letting my pessimistic, paranoid side get the best of me. There is absolutely nothing that could go wrong at this point.
Sarcasm, who let you in here? Shoo! Dammit, now it’s all over the floor!
Hey Jake I went to go vote on TopWebComics, and I gotta say I would recommend changing up the description for Modest Medusa some. It doesn’t do your work justice. I found this comic about a week ago, and I really love it, but a lot of people pick up new comics through TopWebComics, including me. I hate to say it, but if I had first found your comic there, I wouldn’t have been nearly as interested in coming to this site, then or anytime I would see it in the future. Which would have been a loss for me.
I probably should. I wrote that description way back when the series began. It was more accurate then.
There’s a concerning little bump on Marah’s forehead…
Hey…
this kind looks like to original forest that the chainsaw unicorn came from!
…except it’s more like a park. :/
It’s a cool throne room though Jake! 🙂
God DAMN that tower in Shadow of the Colossus!! I think I was missing like… ONE LIZARD!! I almost did that thing where you can climb the tower from the outside (east side I think? Using vines) before you beat the game. I was SO CLOSE to the lip of the tower, and didn’t make it. T-T
Beautifully done panel, Jake. Great, almost relaxing atmosphere, and thanks for rubbing my failures in my face. ‘.^~* Reminds me I need to do the Time Attacks against the Colossi to get the super weapons.
I’ve done the climb. It’s hard. The garden is neat, but unfortunately I hadn’t made it through the timed boss battles to unlock the 17th Colossus, so there was nothing up there for me to fight.
Whoa whoa whoa… there’s a friggin 17th Colossus?!
… *pulls back from chair*…
‘Scuse me…. it appears I have some unfinished business with certain game….
Hmm… or maybe there isn’t? year ago a friend told me about it, and I read a walk through that said that if you climb the tower after beating the other 16 in the hardest timed mode your could fight the 17th Colossus. if you do climb the tower it’s pretty easy to see where the fight would take place. But looking around google I can’t find any screen shots. So maybe it was a myth?
Very beautiful back ground work Jake, its always amazing to see pages like this come up.
-Whistle- Not a back set piece dude. Very nice.
