I love that Allison's superpower is being really, really good at not knowing what the everloving gently caress she's doing
It works well with her getting totally fed up with cryptic bullshit.

Seriously, though, I wonder what's up with the hammer guy. His weapon was much bigger last time we saw him.
The essence of its hammer-ness remains the same but compressed into a smaller area. Eventually it will collapse into a hammer singularity and be able to construct or destroy anything.

I'm not 100% convinced that Felicia is just going to walk blindly into whatever THE DOOR is for this heist. She's clearly been around this block before.
Maybe she has 9 lives to go with her cat motif, and she's a pro at "this door requires a human sacrifice to open" in addition to normal lockpicking and other shenanigans.

This page reminds me of one of my favorite aspects of Astral Aves: making pacts and/or defusing situations with strange, otherworldly beings by being polite.

After I finished this page, I literally said aloud "Holy poo poo. Meti owns." Like, we've known that for ages, ever since her sword manual was first quoted, but this page is A+ good.

Maya is far and away my favorite character and I think she's stealthily kind of the main character, honestly. Not that I don't still REALLY love the main cast.
Auntie Maya is also my favorite character, and that's an enormously high bar to clear in this comic.

Someone posted at some point what Gog's story was, but I don't know if that version of the story is still canon. It boiled down to her dying as a normal human, filled with regret and obsession. These emotions were so powerful that the worms eating her corpse got cursed and gained sentience. She then devoured that universe's world in its entirety. A demiurge used a key to open the gate to this world, and was not prepared for what they found. Gog devoured them and effectively absorbed the key without knowing what it was, and was now no longer contained to their original universe. It also suggests she may not even be using the power of the key. She could easily not even know know how to (fully) use it, relying on the power of the original curse. She also may not know what she truly is: a magic copy imbued on a different life form. She still thinks she's the original.

Meti would probably tell you she's not qualified to teach anything, and Sword Law especially.
I bet she would (grudgingly) admit she's qualified to teach people to bring her booze (and sometimes noodles).

Speaking as someone who grew up speaking English as my native tongue, this is all an absolutely fair and correct assessment. :hmmyes:

I forget where, but sometime either in high school or college, I heard it said that English doesn't borrow words from other languages, it drags other languages into dark alleys, beats them up, then rifles through their pockets looking for loose grammar.
I could have sworn it was Pratchett (it's got that bite that a lot of his writing does), but apparently it was James Nicoll.

Ridcully is kind of Royalty, when you think about it.
"The wizards thought they would be getting the sort of countryside wizard who talks to birds in soft voices, wears brown and reveres mother nature (y'know, a push over).

What they got was someone who shoots birds (and anything else), talks at a consistent shout, wears jogging suits and has about as much respect for mother nature as he does for the members of the faculty (which is not a lot). Early attempts to bump off Ridcully resulted in the ambitious Wizard being stabbed with his own knife, having his head repeatedly slammed in doors or being surreptitiously shot with a crossbow.
"

Yeah, that checks out.

So all these names are from discworld?

Does anyone know how the audiobooks are?
The older books are mostly read by Nigel Planer, and he's fine.
The more recent ones are mostly read by Stephen Briggs, and I like him a lot more.

As a whole, I think the Discworld audiobooks are a great way to experience the series (aside from a few things where Pratchett used typography and layout very deliberately, like in Reaper Man where an entire page was filled by a single word).
