Hello,

Graveyard Greg and the Webtroll have come 'round to what they threatened back in Origins '01, to have "the sorcerer" appear in The Gaming Guardians comic strip ... quick guess, my friends, as to what his three little demon buddies will be named?

The story starts here, as Memento-Mori dupes the poor hero into participating in a scary ritual, and "my" appearance is here.

I love a good satire - I'm looking forward to this.

Best,
Ron

I object!
Memento-Mori looks nothing like Jared!

Heh...I would have been more impressed if they'd incorporated an actual momento-mori somehow. Not that anyone would have gotten it I guess.

You philistines,

"Neh neh-neh neh," you say, "Isn't really like this, isn't really like that." Like anyone cares! It's funny.

Unfortunately, the Sorcerer apparently isn't going to be featured in the storyline for a while; Greg's doing the Claremont thing where a character has an origin ("ooh, God, uh uh, I'm ...")* and then gets shelved for a while.

Best,
Ron

* Sorry.

The Sorcerer doesn't look like Ron. Scarlet Jester doesn't look like Scarlet Jester.¹ I have the distinct impression that the only reference photos Greg provides the artists are pictures of himself. Why is it there are so many characters that look like Greg!?!

¹ I've never actually seen a photo of Scarlet Jester, but I'd bet my girlfriend he doesn't look like that. I'm fairly sure it's not anatomically possible to have so many teeth.

Hmmmm, a chance to win Paul's girlfriend...perhaps the Jester can be convinced to cooperate...

Paul has to find something else to place his bets on, I can think of a few things...

But, you know what they always say, "Oh yeah, I can see the resemblance around the eyes".
