  This comic is great. Just saying.

  What did he, SPRINT the distance?

  I seriously hope he just destroys the bracelet anyways and the comic launches off into an unexpected direction.

  Suspension of disbelief wavering...I require an explanation as to how he made up for having been put off the train. Even if he caught the next one, Sidney and Harriet were never shown being significantly delayed enough for Thomas to catch up.

    Well you see: [http://www.youtube.com/watc...](http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=zQwt3nWzarU#t=476s "http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=zQwt3nWzarU#t=476s")

    
    

    ..no, really, I'll explain it in the comic :)

  Thomas caught up rather quickly, and he's missing his goon squad. Perhaps he is a really fast runner?

    It's one of the strategies for being a good thief; being able to outdistance pursuit.

  I don't see too much of a problem; set a simple condition for Greed taking the amulet and the vase. "Take the previous king of thieves as well."

    Beg pardon: it's a statue, not a vase.

  It had to be done.

  there had to be a twist coming. we knew getting rid of the armband (their stated goal!) couldn't be THAT easy. i would love it if, every now and again, the heroes succeeded without too much shenanigans, as a result of sharp wit and cunning (such as the train trick they pulled) and the first quest was completed without further ado. nonetheless, i think of gort's successful quests to reclaim the regalia, and how those quests were meaningful yet not horribly drawn out journeys within a larger, more complex plot... and i have faith in you, komiisdrawing. what is up with the change from komiyan, btw?

  First re-read of the first chapter - I've read every other one at least twice, but this one never left as much of an impression on me and I didn't feel the need to re-experience it. And in consequence I forgot how seriously heroic Sid is in this strip! "I have a chance to rid the world of this unhappy object, and I will." Got to add that panel to the vague picture-summary of his character I have in my head.

  
  

  (Also, thank you Ms. Ashwin for allowing people who haven't signed up with Disqus to comment! This was my first ever webcomic, besides Darths & Droids which doesn't have a comments section at all, so I didn't learn till recently that it's kind of unusual to be that open to everyone who wants to comment. I understand authors who try to limit the chance of trolling and judgementality, though. Whether you've decided to take the risk, or whether the commenters have just been miraculously nice enough to refrain from those things, it's pretty damn awesome.)
