Well, there goes my prediction of snogging.
I totally ship Izzy + Henry + Mr. Lux. The OT3some.
Going OTT with your OTP's is the only way to roll.
Watch out, Kate -- I may ask you to draw them together when you're at ECCC in April...
Greed is a pretty good sport.

now handcuff the other hand on Lux !
So what happened? Did you die?
Can some one with a better memory make a Prince of Persia reference here please?
"No no no that's not how it happened." rewind sound
Much obliged!
No no, that didn't happen either. wipbipbip!!
I was thinking maybe à la Princess Bride:
"Yes, you're very smart. Shut up."
Henry, Henry. Just because you're disguised as a vessel for Pride doesn't mean you have to pose for self-congratulation like she would.
Lord Barber should have taken a leaf out of O'Malley's book and given Mr Luxuria a good kicking while he was down.
Well, dang. Don't fall down the anchor, Henry, who knows what might happen.
I love the peacock's reaction. Sloth doesn't look displeased, though. Luxuria's plan might have required too much activity.
Poor Sloth. He just wants to sit around, and people keep TALKING to him. Too much work.
I would love to see a crossover and Sinscomic, if only for Widdershins Sloth to Laze around with Sin's Sloth.
Wouldn't that be a rather boring comic?
Not if the two Greed's go on a pillage in the meantime!
Lots of panels of sleeping sloths with SUDDEN unexpected and out of context thievery.
"What? Oh, back to the spirit world I go. Sorry, what happened? I was sleeping."
Heh. They disappeared in reverse order they appear in the comic. Nice touch :)
does the "hooray, someone noticed a minor yet important thing" dance
I just got beat by someone else...I just got in and I caught that and was going to observe this detail myself. Well done, Kate...
Greed is the only other one that we know has a conduit to the world, though, right? He's got the Mark of Theives at this point, so he's just like, "Welp, back to my own plans."
Beware the power of the Snark Side?
He's one for snark to begin with, as evidenced by his entrance into the story arc with his story...
Lux kills Henry, takes his image, marries Isabelle, and unexpected twist to the story is, that the bad guy is really their own grand father!
I totally started a thing :) smugness
I love Pride's expression and how badass Izzy looks.
They disappeared in the opposite order they have appeared in the comic so far; amazing!
ALMOST over.
I don't see any fat ladies in winged helmets yet.
Greed is just so classy about it all.
Pride comes before a fall? Very nice!
OUCH.
HAH!
The logic of magic is of course obscure, if not completely missing, but Lust may have made a serious tactical error here. While the artifact gives him advantage, its possession also makes him vulnerable. He now can be sent "home". Lust may well know this, but he is likely too mad at his plans being spoiled to remember the point.
He is probably hoping for human error at this point. My guess is that he is using Henry's peril and position to make Isabelle stop her casting at the price of Henry falling to his presumed death. He likely fully expects her to do so, seeing love as simply something to be exploited.
I like the way Greed is ... less than respectful ... from his first appearance. "Lux", forsooth!
We're not giving out medals for the most obscure reference you can make here, y'know.
....Or maybe we are. I'm not actually in charge of the medals.
I'm looking forward to learning how Henry wound up with the amulet in 1834.
Well... I have actually heard of the Monkey Island games... But in the context of this fandom, I'd categorize them as "reasonably obscure."
Unfortunately, once the characters' heads get to a certain size, it becomes very difficult to see where they're looking at. In the last panel, I can't tell if Luxuria is glaring at Henry or Isabelle.
Well, yes, but they show up singing in chorus. The fat lady sings a solo before she uses the world as her funeral pyre.
At the end of six hours with only one intermission.
Hmmm, Greed's a good sport about this, isn't he? One could almost say that he saw it coming. XD
