Your regularly schedule host Amanda Miller could not be here this morning to bring you your favorite repository of World of Warcraft-related comics and all that jazz. Instead, this week, you get me. I think the last MMO-related comic I read was in 2001, probably about Ultima Online. Actually, that's probably not a true fact at all, but for the sake of this column today, as well as my own sense of self-satisfaction and hilarity, it's true within the confines of your browser tab.
Comics about MMOs sure have changed since I was reading them! What ever happened to the simple days of BON3DOOD and pLaTeDeWd or Imanewbie? Whatever happened to comics about mobs having their own lives separate from adventurers and jokes about the loot creatures drop? Oh, still around, I see. What is happening to my world?!
Oh, you're here for comics that have actually updated since 2002? Why didn't you say so?

And Orc Detective got two updates this week; #13 and #14 (but we make allowances for the Lawbringer!).

I am sorry, but Teh Gladiators are reusing the same jokes over and over again.
Page back, and see how many pages have done the "LF whatever" joke. Then previous to that, they kept using the same "Valiant shoots something, ape attacks it" joke over and over again.
I don't know if the guys are having a tough time, I hope not, but using the same joke for 4-5 pages, then using another joke for 4-5 pages is wearing thin.

Missed a few weeks after getting a new computer (forgot half my bookmarks), the reality jumps made it pretty hard to get back into as well.

That should have been made a little more clear as well. They finished one story arc, then suddenly they jumped to another one. The way they did it made it seem like a flashback. Then you realize this one is COMPLETELY different from the other one. It's like "A new story, when everyone's a kid!", and they didn't announce the change.

Saw the UO reference, made me think of WTFman.com (do I need to say NSFW?)
Loved the flash movies, remember watching them when they came out and taking forever to load on my dial-up connection.

Yay for a UO reference. I used to love that game!
