lol, Tor may have just destroyed a prophecy XD

OmegaWolf • 05/15/2016

At least he gotten rid of it. Maybe those other adventures might find it and cause more bad luck to them.

Hi Jan :))

A new prophecy. The Hero of Bad Luck

ndrvr • 05/15/2016

Prophecy: straight outta luck.

Could the Swords Gem be a good luck charm...?

Jade • 05/15/2016

Neigh! This is EXACTLY how the prophecy was meant to turn out. Muhahaha - MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Shockwave07 • 05/15/2016

No, but somehow sword hilt, I believe this version somehow better.

...And I don't know the original!

Verp • 05/15/2016

There is Hammerspace and Hammer Time, Is there a Hammerspace-time continuum? Is Tor the Mighty Thor and that is where his hammer gets its power? (For those who don't know, Tor is the proper pronunciation of Thor.)

RCRuskin • 05/15/2016

Still had the bad luck charm? This explains much.

Sir Hawk • 05/15/2016

Verp, you have won the internet.

And I think Tor may have been keeping that bad luck charm the same place Wade Wilson hid the engagement ring in the Deadpool movie.

I'm sorry. I don't get the hammerspace reference in this comic. Oh, and Silver don't speak much but when she does it's priceless. LOL.

drivernjax • 05/15/2016

"I'm sorry. I don't get the hammerspace reference in this comic." Unless it's in reference to where Tor retrieved the bad luck charm from.

Bet that stone burns a hole in his bottom.

I mean wouldn't YOU if you'd just been liberated from your home, by someone hitting you against a rock?

Katnik • 05/16/2016

You know what that hilt really, really needs ?

An Estes rocket engine !

Two thousand feet, easy.

@ndrvr If a good luck charm makes physical contact with a bad luck charm, is it like matter meeting antimatter, resulting in a gigantic explosion? Maybe that's how that crater got there... :3

@drivernjax Hammerspace: a definitive definition https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammerspace

Jan • 05/16/2016

@Verp If the Hammerspace-time continuum exists, Tor could theoretically power the hammer by pulling off dance moves out of thin air... while wearing baggy pants :D

Panther • 05/16/2016

But ! Tor have no pockets .................................. Where he's putted the gemstone and taken out the bad luck charm ? 0_o

Shockwave07 • 05/16/2016

He secretly has a D&D item, belt of secret pockets...

Which has a sort of hammer space inside it...

Razmoudah • 05/16/2016

@Jan: That wiki-link for Hammerspace has some questionable information in it. Especially the bit about the character Akane Tendo using a lot of hammers to hit Ranma with in the anime Ranma 1/2. I've been watching that series on Hulu the past couple of weeks and she's used her fists or nearby objects most of the time, with a handful of paper fans, and almost never pulled a hammer from Hammerspace. Now, it did mention Urusei Yatsura, and it sees a lot of Hammerspace hammers from various characters.

ndrvr • 05/17/2016

@Jan put each Charm on the opposing ends of the Hilt. Either Tor gets an infinite rotational energy source or just an odd Treasure (good luck) / Doom (bad luck) "compass" :).

Silverwolf • 05/17/2016

Tor pulled that stone out of the only place the pigeons cannot find it. It's THAT intimate, so I will say no more.

WB101 • 05/18/2016

I gotta say it...

And now you will see... the magic of the rock.

gets hit by a falling Mola Ram

Katnik • 05/19/2016

This can't end well . . . his bright idea was only one candlepower, after all. Everyone, cross your fingers for good luck.

Sammy • 05/21/2016

He just pulled that joke out of his butt, didn't he?

warbrand2 • 05/21/2016

lets see the gem on a magic sword is generally something use to amplify a spell in a sword or power teh spell on a sword.

So either that hilt now has the ability to cause bad luck to anyone hit with it, or Tor may have just amplified the bad luck effect on himself... though do not think that is possible.

Blinkey • 05/21/2016

Now it truly belongs to Tor

Sturzkampf • 05/22/2016

Hm. A talking sword with an orange gem in the hilt. Anyone read Darken and remember a talking sword called Blackshard? http://darkencomic.com/?webcomic_post=20060802

MishaFox • 05/25/2016

Tor doesn't need that stone. He is his own bad luck charm.

Brighttail • 05/25/2016

The easiest literal explanation is that he rolled up the back lining of his tunic to create a pocket and put a slit in the back to retrieve items. Simple, eh?

Arc Nova • 05/27/2016

Everyone always talks about the sword in the stone. But nobody ever mentions the stone in the sword.

drivernjax • 05/29/2016

Jan, I had heard the word hammerspace before and actually looked it up. My question was why you were using it in this particular strip until I realized that we don't know where Tor was keeping the back luck charm. He just pulled it out of a hammerspace. LOL.

DreamGod • 06/01/2016

Tor just destroyed Caliburn. The horror...XD
