Comic #859: Dead Man Walking (Patreon)

I originally gave Krom dialogue in each panel basically just screaming at Keydar about his incompetence before I realized it was totally unnecessary. A lot of it was going to be offscreen as if he was still yelling at him in whispers or something. Eventually I realized having krom follow him across the world just to continue ranting at him was a lot funnier.

I was trying to come up with a comic idea and I started thinking about the burning of Teldrassil. I thought about maybe making a comic where a player interacted with the Keepers of Time NPC in order to visit old Teldrassil. I then realized that using the NPC itself would make a good punchline if someone was trying to get out of a jam by going back in time. I then figured I should go with the base thematic screw-up present in so many of my comics, namely, wiping the raid.
