[Link] Errant Story [Date] 10/16/03 [Comments] 
After Exploitation Now ended, I was pretty aghast at what replaced it. Not a boring fantasty/adventurers type story! There's only about 400 D&D comics like this on the web, the characters are all cliches, the plot seems to move glacially, there's not much in the way of jokes, and it isn't even in color. It seemed so opposite of what made this author's first comic so beloved on the internet, and destined to end early. However, something intesting has happened; he proved me wrong by sticking with it. Slow or not, there is definitely a plot, and it's got more than a couple of layers. Poe has rewritten the cliched "elves and middle earth" backstory in an admittably new way, with more of an "elder gods" feel and the jumble of anachronisims seems to be working in a hip way. The update rate has been unfailing, which is major points for something I didn't expect to last, so let's check it out and see where it's going to go. Plus, it's got the cat with bat wings.
