He can be injured so I'm sure he could die, but I doubt dieing means the same thing to him as it would to mortals.

Ok so Rick says on his Twitter that the arc is going to be two pages longer then originally expected and that he "Made an unrelated arc pay off in this ending" Here and Here This should be very interesting I can't wait to see this ending now and what arc he made pay off.

This should be a really good ending then. Freak us all out! I love it when a story arc does that! :D


UPDATE: So Karishad tell you that thing about foxes in the alt. text?

Poor Keene, always getting imprisoned somehow.

How is Keene going to capitalize on this? :|

So yeah she is there to basically keep them from knowing about the game; as well as alive, though considering Karishad could just wander around here I’m not exactly sure how useful that was.

Apparantly, even a fox's luck of disaster cannot defeat the thief class's luck bonus. :geek:

That is, unless ferrets have a similar stat bonus of a hobbit, then we're talking about one lucky ferret. :ugeek:

That wasn't a big waste of aaack. Quite the contrary, that was a very appropriate use of aaack.

2 strips longer than anticipated... does that mean ending this week, next week, or 2014?

At first I thought it was Pete. Then I realized he doesn't talk that way.

Could it be Ethereal Manticore, who I will not shut up about until she's real? :P

Personally that was what gave it way from me though I thought it might be just like a huge statue of Pete and not Pete himself.

Sleet does not joke about the Ethereal Manticore.... :?

And I forgot to look at the tags and thought it was a minion of Pete's left there to guard the temple and such.

I also notice that none of those present are possible avatars for Pete, since Sabrina is allied with Dragon. ;)

so finally Pete shown up. I wandering if Pete really have some type of interest in Keene or at least if he plan to use him somehow. At the end I think they gonna do some kind of deal, but who knows...
Now I'm thinking what if Sabrina is playing for both sides? Like a doble-agent? It's just a stupid theory but it could be really awesome! X3

I came to the forums to say one thing and one thing only: YAY PETE'S BACK!!!

....that's all, just felt like I had to get that out of my system...no theories or anything...unless you count the one about the King of the Cosmos being drinking buddies with Bahamut and Pete...

So we finally learn what the goal of the first U&U game is, and its still stupid.

Edit: also so can Pete do what he promised or not? Trial in Heaven implied that he really couldn't and just made it up to get people to move the temple.

I, for one, think it's a good plot. It's actually quite original, and i love originality :D

As far as it goes right now, he hasn't done it yet, but the conversation implies he can definitely do it.

See the one thing that confuses me is in Trial in Heaven Pete implied that it was something he couldn’t actually do. (and in fact that it was something he made up on the spot to get someone to move the temple) Now here him and Sabrina are saying this was the reason the first U&U game was being played, and why Dragon and Pete disagreed and had to do this whole duel thing. So which is it?

Also to clarify, the reason I find it stupid is because what gives Pete or Dragon the right to try and do this to the world at all? (either way they want to do it)

I don't see where you're seeing that this is the purpose of the first U&U game. I see that it is the subject of a bet, which may or may not be separate from the game itself. Or possibly that the bet is the game, but giving up all his power to do this thing would make him lose the game.

That's kind of a perk of being a demi-god, you don't really have to explain yourself. Pete wouldn't make a very good villain if he had some selfless reason for what he was doing now would he?

What gives man the right to put ants in a glass case filled with dirt for the rest of their lives? Or would you prefer the example of a older wiser sister/brother trying to decide the best way to raise their younger siblings?

But since we're dealing with Divine beings, I'd say the ant is the more correct analogy...

I would actually say that the more correct analogy would be what right would a bunch of aliens with advance technology have to mess with earth. They didn't create the universe (as stated in the comic and by Rick) so I really don't care if they are Divine beings that doesn't give them the right to do this.
