    First!

    So was she messin' about how he should give up now, or that he could never hope to defeat the Miscreant?
  • edited February 2007
    All around. Except for Ruto's name.
  • edited February 2007
    I really like this one. Especially link's "Goodness!"
  • edited February 2007
    What is she doing in the last panel?
  • edited February 2007
    I like the green glow...
  • edited February 2007
    I'm eagar to see Link's new attack and/or item! I hope it's cookies!
  • edited February 2007
    It's obviously going to be an Ocarina! We all know that the Miscreant hates music. Oh wait, that's Digdogger.

    And remember:

    And "Digdogger hates certain type of sound".

    EDIT: I didn't see/read Takeru's post.

    EDIT2: I'll put all 0 of my Mario Points on a Fire Rod. Yes, I read that thread. Before I registered.

    On-topic: Can you post a zoom out of that sprite in the second panel? I can't really figure out what it's supposed to look like all close-up and diagonal and whatnot.

    Off-topic: Speaking of the linked topic (above), I totally drew the hourly comic for February 12th, 2006 two weeks ago with full intent of posting it, and then I accidentally threw it away. It's too bad, I had a pretty interesting day that day.

    That's Link's upward stab sprite.
  • edited February 2007
    Oh, I totally see it now. Thankee.
  • edited February 2007
    Speaking of, is that sprite a Panighetti original? I don't remember anything like that from the game but I don't know.

    And that old thread reminds me, we need to have a dress like Hlavco day. I forgot last year and I don't think I can wait till October.

    How could you not remember the upthrust? it was useful in many situations!
  • edited February 2007
    If you look at Link's sprite sheet (which probably needs some updating, I've made one or two sprites since I released this sheet, I think), the bottom row is my original creations.

    Since Link hasn't yet learned the Up Thrust technique (which was a totally awesome technique), I only use it for dramatic poses in close-up.
  • edited February 2007
    I must have never learned it. I had the downthrust but never an upward version.

    Man, I really have to play Zelda II. Every time I hear about it, it sounds more awesome. Goodness! "Oh my goodness" is a weird saying, when you think about it. What's it mean?

    I dunno man, do you think you can pull off the generic horizontal striped t-shirt look?
  • edited February 2007
    It's a way of saying "oh my God" without being blasphemous.

    Wow, you look just like my freind and is that a N64 I see??

    Oh. And no. The mass of wires is overflow from the many different PS2 controllers and peripherals that are over in that corner.

    Oh my God isn't blasphemous. It says do not take the Lords NAME in vain. His name is Jehovah (or Yahweh), not God, that's his job, therefore oh my God doesn't break any rules.

    Off-topic.

    This comic had me going right to the very end.

    Really, I never once thought that she would give him something, and I still don't think she will. I also don't think that anything that link throws at the miscreant will do anything at all.
  • edited February 2007
    If all else fails, use fire!
    Fire Rod maybe.
  • edited February 2007
    Fire rod is for n0035. Fire arrows are where it is at.
  • edited February 2007
    Pfft.

    Bomb Arrows FTW!
  • edited February 2007
    Bombchu!

    I don't think I ever used those things outside of that OoT bowling minigame...
  • edited February 2007
    If you beat the game, you used them in the Spirit Barrier!
