And the plot continues. Looks like Salt is being crushed?

Poor Salt.

But I wonder what type of Monster it is.

And the change from Oblivion to Oblivious seems a bit forced as a joke.

As if the characters didnt take enough time to draw already now two of them will have red lines on their skin!

The dialogue is pretty bad and convinient, a bit too expositionish. How does forgath know the static doesnt hurt him? Why say outloud that the lightning was meant to empower her? And yes, hearing "oblivion" as "oblivious" is a stretch.

Och! Or you can just not draw the characters! Let them hide beneath the panel, or just forget about them (Idle).

Thanks.

When I noted I cannot post or do anything on the site anymore (not even logging out), I wanted to post that I noted that

Minmax is now left-handed.
He is carrying Oblivious in his left hand.
Yes, in fighting situations he did wield Oblivious with his left hand before, but used mostly his right hand.
But carrying Oblivious into the fight he always did with his right hand.

I had a list of examples, but am too lazy to search them up again. Sorry.

About Oblivious too, when was the last time we saw Minmax letting go of it, which would have opened a portal to this moment?
Maybe we'll saw him getting the sword with the left hand.

Nah. He just hugged Forgath, and no portal was displayed.

Maybe it is a recent change, but Minmax is seen "future-drawing" Oblivious with his left hand:

and related "present-drawing":

(maybe because Kin was on his right at this moment), so it is not a blunder from this comic, at least.

I commented it on BSky, and Elli did not comment back, but did like the post.
So, it seems this may become somewhat of a story at some point.
Because Minmax did change.
(Maybe just Minmax' player changed, and the new player is left-handed?
Herbert and Forgath's player got enough of the MinMax shenanigans..?)

Also: thanks for the passages.
I knew Minmax fights also left-handed, depending on circumstances.
But "carrying" he previously did with his right hand, and that has changed.

Weapon grips and what hand is doing what has been violently shifting all throughout the comic. Now one character has a weapon that is supposed to jump around...

Of course he uses his left hand from time to time! What else would he do with that sword?

I'm pretty sure Minmax gave up some basic life skill for ambidexterity.
