him or me, meaning Sedwig and fang (he doesn't deserve a capital letter) or Sangwine and fang?

Yes, because we always decide to kill the ones we're in love with to save our own skins. X3 LOVE IS SO WONDERFUL.

And if I'm wrong, Colby should lobotomize me, because I'll feel like an idiot anyway for believing something is so obvious and being mistaken. BUT HE'S TALKING ABOUT ZEDWIG, I'M SURE OF IT.

Would Zedwig kill Fang? YES. Would Fang kill Zedwig? IF HE HAD TO.

Curses. If I'd read these comments earlier I would have gotten a million points. XD

I never thought it could be anyone BUT Zedwig, so I just went on living my life, little knowing that there was a debate going on JUST BELOW the comic page... *laughs* Come on, guys.

This page is so obviously Fang's moment of, "Huh. I rather think Zedwig MEANS it this time. Well, poop, now I'll HAVE to shoot him." ... But much more profound-sounding, he is sorta an evil dictator, after all.

Wherein Zedwig sends a fireball through the window.

I say... I know this is out of topic, but I drew the stupidest piece of fanart ever the other day. How would I go about getting them to you, Colby, so I can share my SHAME??

Is Fang experiencing some guilt? Wowsa! He may have a consious in that twisted little mind of his after all! Lovely page as always! I'm absolutely loving the design of the gun!

awww.... I think Fang is in love with Zedwig.

Fang is in quite the conundrum. If he doesn't kill Zedwig, there's a good chance that the prissy little mage will make good on his promise. However, if he does kill Zedwig the elf mages will be free of Fang's control and will be able to start their own revolution under Xylic.

As much I am a fan of Fang, I think it's the end of the line for him. :'(

You're right - he's opening a bag which probably doesn't contain cleaning supplies. I think the one on the desk contains bullets, because it's bulky, and the one he's carefully opening has gunpowder.

My first thought was "he's going to finish off Sangwine", but there are flaws with that. Loading this gun takes time, and why would Fangline do it just to shoot someone who is dying and helpless? If he wanted to make sure, he could just stab him. He also had no qualms about leaving him to die, so why now?

My bet's on Zedwig. Zedwig is beginning to break free of the mind-control and has announced he will kill Fang as soon as he can. Fang feels bad about killing Zedwig, but ultimately would decide exactly along the "him or me" lines he's saying now.

Zedwig needs to watch his back - and the worst thing is that there's not much he can do while Fang still controls him.

Well, when you say it like that it's so simple that I feel shtupid. Strain, my brain muscles, strain like the wind!

There's no fun in trying to guess. Much more fun to just wait and die and finally go "Ohhh, THAT'S who she and Fang meant...." XD

One hopes we made you feel better? To be honest, most of the time I'm like "PAAGEEE!!!!!!!!!! WOO HOOO!!!" and then I read it and I'm like "Nooo, need new page!" *desperately finds things to do until next update.*" ^^ Which reminds me, when I get a decent internet connection I need to reread again.

Naah, he can't shoot Zedwig. Why? Err, well.. just because... I'd cry.

Now that I think of it, my favourite characters always end up dead, so I guess whether or not I cry has never mattered. XD Oops?

What's wrong with the obvious answer? If it's obvious, it's because the story was told well and there isn't going to be a plot hole popping up out of nowhere to eat people.

I do believe it's Zedwig simply because that second to last panel Fang is all like >_< and so far to date, only Zedwig can bring out the angsty self-doubt in Fang.

spas — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 12:57:24 -0000

yes - zedwig. but...would zedwig really kill fang or fang kill zedwig? i think not. ponder in angst, yes.

re: someone's comment about the page and you taking the day off - you know that your readers are insane colby-fans and will wait with baited breath for word of your next project when lint is finished. and that we are grateful/appreciative of your work and like falco (i think) said, amazed that you manage to fit it in to your family life, music and more. however, if random people who don't know about - this comic or your life or the deal with webcomics in general- pop on by, i am in favor, even if they say absurd things. because more people should read lint! everyone should have the pleasure! like manna, lint should fall down from the heavens for curious readers everywhere! hahaha!

No million points because nobody came out and just said it like it is.

Who else could it possibly be? Who else could make his hand shake like that? Sang is supposed to be down for the count, there's no reason he would go reload his gun just to shoot him again; waste of time. Who just threatened his life, and blithely even? Where is his attention focused in the first half of the comic? After whose retreating form? Why would he need to tell himself over what he needs to do? Fang knows what he needs to do, at least in his own warped sense of self-preservation, but yet for the first time there is an outward sign of resistance to the act of killing. Why? To what realization has he just come?

SOCRATIC METHOD, YO

Based just on what Colby has said, what with the million points and all, I'm going to have to say Al'bert, because Zedwig is the obvious answer.

He would definitely have to convince himself to kill Al'bert, his oldest friend. Imprisoning him is one thing, killing him is another altogether. He knows he needs to do it, or Al'bert will reveal the secret of his earring to more people than just Bactine.

The only hole I'm seeing in my assessment is that the last time we saw Al'bert, he was facing down about 5 or 6 guards.

Inkblot — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 12:05:40 -0000

On the other hand, if it was Sang or Zed then we would all have a million points by now. So it must be... someone... else.

It seems very, very unlikely... but it IS sorta suspicious how we never saw the dead King's face....

...Nah.

Inkblot — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 12:02:06 -0000

Here, here! It shouldn't be a matter of pressure. It should be something that's fun to do. Plus, we may complain, but if we got ALL the rest of the comic in one day, then we would read it all and it would be OVER. And this is one of those stories you don't really ever want to end. :)

Re: #393 – Wherein Fang begins talking to himself

Sat, 14 Mar 2009 06:45:33 -0000

oh wait! He might be trying to kill Al'bert for telling Bactine his secret about the earring.

Colby, your time is, obviously, your time. Don't let people get to you. I might say I don't want to wait, but I can tell you right now I would rather get one update a month than no updates at all! Heck, with how busy you are with your children, we're lucky to get a comic at all.

You know, I think I mentioned a fanfiction a year ago... I actually started it, but my computer dieded and I was stuck anyway... *sad* *is still working on ideas, honest*
