To be dead, or not to be dead: That's Friday's very strange question. Alas poor Marco! I don't know him well, but he is a fellow with magic speed-boots. As the temptress approaches the door, will her large feet pass the ward? ----- Vote for Sluggy Freelance at Top Web Comics. Remember to vote EACH day. [#100 +0 *266]

Well, this means one of two Very Bad Things has happened. I just hope it's not the obvious one.

Oh poop.
Hopefully she still has some spec spec causing the problem?
(Her large feet?? OK, maybe one was overly foreshortened yesterday... I'm more distracted by her jacket.)

I'm sure that the fact that she has a spiritual link with a dead queen and has been given magical powers by a demon trapped in a dead king has nothing to do with it...

Yeah, this is where I expected the Friday cliffhanger to leave off, and I'll be waiting all weekend for the Monday resolution now. Still hoping Marco is the one stopping her, or maybe she's only mostly dead. Where's Miracle Max when ya need him?

Well, that's certainly awkward. It's probably something harmless we're all familiar with already, though.

This had to be the Friday strip, didn't it?
Well, things are looking bad for old Gwynn, but we can't rule out a fakeout just yet. Stay alive, Gwynn! Stay alive!

Well the Friday cliffhanger was predicted by many that she wouldn't get past the doorway. Now for the reason why... That will probably be explained Monday.
Though I am going to cryptically say "there really shouldn't of been time". Though there is an interesting possibility that I'm not sure others of thought about, but Pete might do it.

Ok, there are plenty of things about Gwynn which could be setting off a false positive on those wards, not the least of which is all the demonic power from the bug coursing through her. It is into necromancy after all.
So I think the next question we need to ask is, how could Gwynn have died? I don't think something as major as the death of a main character could happen completely off panel. There would be some sort of clue somewhere, even if it's the blink and you'll miss it variety. She doesn't have any obvious wounds. And she had a healthy appetite up until at least a few hours ago, when she was pigging out on the stuff in the cooler. No craving the flesh of the living, or craving sunlight as the rage husks seem to.
This stuff is probably going to drive us all crazy over the week end. Hopefully, Torg will reach out and check Gwynn for a pulse on Monday. And more hopefully, he'll find one.
