This week in Epic Fail: Clodin throws an axe into Amuletts’ negotiations with Martin. Martin figures 100 gold is a small price to pay for her to behave herself. She explains, rather cryptically, that he has been cheated, but pockets the money anyway.
Creator’s Commentary: Now you know why Clodin responded so violently. As for Amuletts… she’s greedy. Mind you, she didn’t think Martin would take her offer, after all, it was extortionate! He was supposed to barter. Gold to Amuletts is rather like a pocketful of coppers, but “look after the pennies…”
Incidentally I like the close-ups on Clodin. They worked out better than I expected.
I gave my Mother the comic to read and she did so out loud. She did Clodin’s lines with a squeaky little voice, presumably because he is small. It made me laugh.

Nice work! Loved the close up of Clodin too.
I like your comic! I think it's sooper nifty that you read mine 🙂
When my mom reads my comic she more often than not nods disapprovingly, that makes me giggle.
Ha Ha, love the sound effects in panel 2. XD Glad to see the flying axe didn't escalate.
Cheers 😀
I really like it when you use the really bright colors in your comic.
Hehe, parents reactions are often amusing.
Hi Amy, thanks for the kind words! Your comic looks pretty entertaining too (I agree, by the way, about the beard thing). I'll have to give it a read 🙂
Thank you for the nice words on my site. good stuff here. Good luck with the frumph war, ive been crazy busy as of late, so i haven't gotten to do anything special for it. But i suppose there is still some time.

No problem, you have a gret comic. I'm now following you on twitter by the way.
Poor Clodin. Dwarves and their beard issues are just hilarious. Most people don't capitalize on that and I'm glad to see you doing so.
