If you listen closely, you'll be able to hear a distinct sound of heart breaking.

Because it's blunt. It'll hurt more!

Whatchu talkin' 'bout? I shave when I get depressed, that's why I asked for the razor

You could try shaving with a spoon. I'd prefer eating something with it though. In my experience, that's what spoons are used for 99% of the time. I like to eat ice cream with my spoons. In summary, spoons are a useful tool for eating food.

Unless it's a grapefruit spoon.

And why does it seem odd to me that the author of "Playing With Knives" has no knives to play with?

Due to the nature of his comic, I would assume most of them are being lent out to the FBI as evidence.

Spoons are used for flinging things far more than 1% of the time. It's difficult to make a table catapault without one!

You never know who will end up being a member of the Kolter Family. We sprawl more than a major city. :D

Is this really all that different from, say, sprite comics? Or the vast array of manga-drawn comics out there?

...so... what are you guys saying that Order of the Stick invented the glorified stick figure and that Legendary is just copying? Seriously?

...The Stick Figure?

Well, OOTS has a very specific style.

You can easily point at something and say "Oh that's just Manga." But not point out the specific person's work that's being ripped off, because it's such a common style. Ditto sprites really - and for the record, they're almost universally shunned, excepting the few that actually maintain the style, but use their own characters (8-bit theater, Spriteville, etcetera).

I for one, like your comic Legendary. But it's clear you have completely borrowed the style from OOTS. OOTS is not a common style - it's very unique to OOTS and so, is more like ripping off a specific comic, than simply buying into a style.

But again, I like your comic - I find the idea of a cleric refusing to heal his friend so he can attack an undead monster with heal spells remarkably funny. :)
