Indeed, I have located a webcomic unlike any other. By this, I mean it actually updates pages when it says it will, and is damn funny and interesting. In addition, it's about 300 pages in, so you have something to read already

Now I hope no one will judge it on its appearance, for it appears to be merely a World of Warcraft comic, which based on the few I've seen tend to be a little too serious and have very predictable storylines. This one however, is a parody comic that actually follows a solid storyline, and pokes fun at Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, World of Warcraft, Wheel of Time, RA Salvatore, Dungeons & Dragons, George RR Martin, Everquest, and a whole host of TV Shows, comics, books and other stuff.

First Page: [link]

Above everything though, I like many others who read it, have been enthralled by the whimsical homicidal tendencies, of the all powerful Warlock: Richard.

Richard, also known as Chief Warlock of the Brothers of Darkness, Lord of the Thirteen Hells, Master of the Bones, Emperor of the Black, Lord of the Dead, mayor of a little village up the coast, Lord of the Dance, and finally Mistress of the Magma, is hilarious, powerful, and apparently bored. For instance, one of the first things he says, in fact it's on the first page, goes something like this; "I think you're a little cnofused. Have you looked int he mirror? Helping people in distress isn't the sort of thing your kind does. Instead of helping an aged dwarf lady across the road, you should be shooting her face full of arrows until it stops being funny".

Here is a short music video for you to get an idea of him: [link]

His achievements rival those of the ancients, and cause people to quake and tremble at the sound of his name. Some of these include:

-Killing Obi-Wan Kenobi by pushing him off a cliff, remarking "You should listen to him" (to Luke) "He was a wise man"

- Killing Obi-Wan Kenobi's force ghost, remarking "Wise, and persistent. He will be missed"

- Being sent to demon court for acting "for the good", being convicted, and subsequently getting bored and destroying the entire courtroom.

- Become mayor of a little town up the coast and turning its denizens into a horde of skeletal thralls subservient to his bidding, including a little girl who has a fondness for ripping out hearts.

- Inventing the "Murder inspires Undertaker Work Increase" economic surplus package.

- Opening a portal from an Eternal City by crucifying himself (No one knows how the HELL he managed it)

- Inventing the famous battle cry "For Pony!!"

- Single handedly killing, in many different and creative ways, a village of 2000+ peasants mobbing him, and having the decency to mark the population tally as "2" (Himself and a panther)

- Single handedly defeating the Volcano Goddess Ajellah, and taking her title

- First to realise the hilarity of the word "magma"

- Coiner of the term "Killing means you never have to say sorry"

- Inventor of "The Fork of Truth"

- First to dub magical fire abilities with a relevant name: "Fwooshing"

- Successfully challenged and defeated an erupting volcano, while at the same time rescuing the protagonist by sealing him within the corpse of a defeated digger, and giving him the advice "Don't squeeze the liver, you won't like the liquid centre"

- Successfully created a temporal distortion, killed two of his past selves, and survived.

- Found out that the meaning of life is in fact "Bucket"




So I hope you'll all go and read it, it's well worth the read.

I'm sorry for the wait, but it wont be much longer. I have school and such, but when I get the time I'll send the suggestions. Oh, and I'm sorry your car exploded. How did that happen?
:icondaniel-gleebits:
The story of my car's spontaneously bursting into flame isn't all that interesting, it was frightening at the time I admit, but later it was rather funny. I know my family think it's hilarious to keep bringing it up

No problem at all, I myself am bogged down in homework at the moment. Oh well, the price of "higher learning" I suppose

Helo I'm a fan of your ZLP fanfic and I was wondering if you are going to finnish it, because I have some ideas that I think you might be interested in about how the story could end. I know ZLP is your oldest art, but its such a great read for IZ and JTHM fans.
:icondaniel-gleebits:
Thank you, honestly, but if I do finish it, it won't be now. What with college and all the other issues of my age group, and the fact that my car exploded today, I neither have the time, nor the drive to continue it at the moment.
If you have any suggestions, I should be glad to hear them though for future reference.

Thank you! I have suggestions that I hope will turn the story onward, with action and gore! :woohoo: I will send you my references soon, now I must sleep.
