Previously on The Weeds to Wednesday...Soylent Paper is made of trees!
The evil sun has decided to arise.
Hate meters are being charged to full and set to kill.
Nocturnal monsters are unhappily slithering back into their holes.
Half (or more) of the people have no clue what the first "previously" means.
Alicja's father has downloaded a file with malware included at no cost.Now we (possibly) return to see how many hates are needed to get to the center of a tootsie pop...----- Vote for Sluggy Freelance at Top Web Comics. Remember to vote EACH day. [#102 +6 *293]

Panels of someone walking, without any text, or anything of note happening? That's what's known as establishing tone, and it usually means something big and bad is about to happen.
Until then, though, this is just a guy picking up the cell phone he left in his car. :)

Behold: Swords & Cellphones. A modern fantasy setting where magic and technology have combined, and techno-wizards use custom coded spell apps to work their magic.
Think Dresden Files meets Watchdogs.
On topic: So now in our inventory we have a lantern, a sword, a dead cellphone, a page of an ancient tome, a nearly-naked witch, and a wheelbarrow. I don't know about the rest of you, but I have no idea where this is going next.

Then we saw an image of it courtesy of the REalCAPtUReASSist on Torg's Sterizon phone, and finally it was seen in Torg's "eight eight eight" dream. balthazar wrote: So now in our inventory we have a lantern, a sword, a dead cellphone, a page of an ancient tome, a nearly-naked witch, and a wheelbarrow. It's a good thing you mentioned the wheelbarrow. Too many people neglect to list a wheelbarrow among their assets.

Is this Chaz? I thought it was that sword Gwynn picked up.

He does not have a cross on him, either. Sadly, Torg still has no magic monster slaying weapon. Possibly Gwynn will be able to assist with that in some fashion. LB

I don't know about the rest of you, but I have no idea where this is going next. I expect more Torgish jackassery and badassitude, and more Gwynnish bitchiness and magical amazingness. But that's always true.
