Sadly so. It's been a long 7 years and 166 pages. We're going to have to call it a wrap here. There is bonus material here: https://www.patreon.com/scottenkainen And there is always the timeline in the Rob Kuntz Archive DVD -- buy it, read it, and imagine what the rest was like!
Aww, dang! Good job on the comic, sad it ended so soon (weird to say about a multi-year comic). Wish there were more dramatic retellings of the adventures of the original explorers of Greyhawk. Robilar especially seems to have always made a mess of GG's dungeons.
I think the saddest thing is that we had to be the ones to make this webcomic in the first place. D&D has been licensed for comic books multiple times now, over decades -- and yet nobody wanted to tell these stories before us.
So, the next time someone pays for the license to make D&D comic books or graphic novels, write soon and write often and demand Greyhawk content!
Thanks for this incredible work you did all those years. For the last 4-5 years, religiously, i've been coming to work and opening this page before anything else, hoping to find a new panel to start my day. I'll miss this excitement, this need to find out what will happen next.
Your work is awesome, you've put a lot of heart and time into it. You guys did an amazing job keeping us hooked like that for so long.
I wish you luck in any new project you might start. Now I'm off starting this whole story over XD.
I've enjoyed the comic over the years, but dang, that was an abrupt, unsatisfying ending, with many unanswered questions. Too bad. :( I would encourage you to start another webcomic on Greyhawk, maybe based on your own PCs?
Thanks for story! I read along from the start and always enjoyed finding new posts. 7 years was indeed a long telling, I appreciate the effort from both you, thanks again.
Thanks for the kind words guys. It was a slog, and it's my fault it took so long. Scott is a prolific and fantastic author. I've learned a lot and there are things I would do different/better. Overall CG was a great experience.
Thanks very much for all your guys' effort over the years. I'm sorry to see you wrap it up, but I understand how much work it must have taken. You guys rule, and I hope we do see more content like this some day.
Great story! Great art! Sad that I only discovered it 2 years after it ended, but I guess that saved me waiting for each new installment to come out.
Thanks guys!
Still, I deserve that chance to wait like everyone else, so if the passage of time has renewed you interest, fell free to com back and continue this project!
We're just glad it's here for you, unknown person. It wasn't a new installment, but Mike *did* revisit the characters one more time in this post on his blog - https://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2020/03/900th-greyhawk-post.html
I was very late to the party but I enjoyed the hell out of this comic. Congratulations, guys, and thanks for bringing the early adventures of Tenser and company so vividly to life. I'm glad to see in that last panel that he finally cajoled Ehlissa into joining him once more on an adventure! I wonder what she might be up to in 591 CY...
You're very welcome, and thank *you* for the feedback along the way. Ehlissa is, sadly, no longer alive in my current campaign set in 622 CY, but what happened to her - well, someone could always volunteer to write some fanfiction and let us know!
Thanks for this. I just finished it, having come to it later than when it was "published." It was a fun read. I must ask, is Erac's Cousin meant to be Erac, having been permanently turned evil by some trick/trap he encountered in the dungeon beneath Castle Greyhawk, or is he actually "Erac's Cousin"?
Erac and Erac's Cousin are in fact distinct characters. Both were played by Ernie Gygax. Erac died while exploring in Castle Greyhawk, trapped in a room of pentacles very similar to that in the published S4 module: see https://www.greyhawkonline.com/grodog/gh_s4.html#fraz for some info and pointers to Scott Gregg's research. Erac's Cousin was detailed in the 1e Rogues Gallery.
Welcome, Traveller! It's good to see people are still discovering this webcomic in the "future" of 2023. There was a Patreon project to compile this webcomic into a book, but that project is long since over. The individual pages are also available in a Facebook group dedicated to just Castle Greyhawk.
Don't tell me this is the end?
ReplyDeleteSadly so. It's been a long 7 years and 166 pages. We're going to have to call it a wrap here. There is bonus material here: https://www.patreon.com/scottenkainen

Wooohooo!---A great ending, Scott and Mike! :D

Going to miss this comic, great work.

Best to do it while "Lord Robilar" is alive to tell his stories, too!
DeleteThanks guys! I'm proud to have given Scott's story life. It was a very long road and hopefully I'll miss drawing some of these great characters.

NOW he tells us!

ReplyDeleteIt is a bit abrupt; I once estimated we would need another 120 pages just to get us caught up to the 1980 Folio!

ReplyDeleteBe sure to let me know if (or when) you guys start another project!
DeleteAny chance that you guys will bundle these together into one file like a pdf book?
ReplyDeleteThanks very much for all your guys' effort over the years. I'm sorry to see you wrap it up, but I understand how much work it must have taken. You guys rule, and I hope we do see more content like this some day.

I would like to echo the comment above, is there any chance you might compile these into PDF or electronic comic format?
