* This delightful BlackComedy exchange when Redcloak reveals that he can use Detect Evil to track down Xykon;
-->'''Redcloak:''' Someone has to be the one to go find you when you wander off like a small child in a general store.\\
'''Xykon:''' You could just follow the trail of corpses like everyone else.\\
'''Redcloak:''' Not when you zombify them! Then they just spread out and make more corpses!

-->'''Q:''' Who would be the most conventionally beautiful characters (male and female) if they were drawn non-sticky?\\
'''A:''' For men, it’s obviously Mr. Scruffy. He’s a very handsome cat. For women, it’s a tough choice but I think it has to be the Azurite archer on the left side of panel 7 of strip #423. She’s actually drop dead gorgeous but it doesn’t really get mentioned at that time, partly because everyone is running for their lives from a Titanium Elemental but also because it’s a professional setting and it wouldn’t be appropriate.
