Halloween 2008

Happy Halloween, everybody! Boy this was fun. If you don’t know what these scenes are from, for your own good I direct you here. For past Lint Halloweenies, here is 2007 and 2006. I even dredged up 2005, where Al’bert is looking very much like the Count of Cheese.

  • Annalia

    … You just had me repeat “oh my god” Five times in a row, followed by a long, high-pitched squeal. So glad nobody's home today! I -love- Princess Bride!

    Out of curiosity, how hard is it to draw six fingers? XD

  • Ilirien

    Oh.My.Gosh. Colby, you are the best!!!1! I may have to print this out and stick it on my wall. ; ) The first, fourth and sixth panels in particular are completely awesome. And, you know, like, the second, third, fifth and seventh ones, too.

  • Rinnan

    Al'bert as Inigo has to be one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

  • Barrett

    “No. To the pain.” :-)

  • Falco

    Haha, Stump!
    Is it sad that my sister and I can practically recite that whole scene?

  • sarah

    Pure happiness!!! Hooray for combining two of my favorite things :)

  • Erulisse

    THE PRINCESS BRIDE!!!!!!!!! *dieas laughing*
    I love that movie so much; and LinT characters playing it is SOOO hilarious!!!!!!

  • Annie

    Lint characters + Princess Bride scenes = epic win! I love this so much <3 BTW, you just made my whole entire day! And most likely tomorrow's day too.

  • Annie

    oh, and what is so weird and funny is my friends and I were just talkinga bout and quoting Princess Bride like, ten minutes ago.

  • Wendy

    This makes me so rediculously happy. Thank yoooou!

  • A Reader

    Huzzah Huzzah! I officially LOVE this page. To death.

  • Guest

    LOL! Hurray for The Princess Bride! Stump makes a great Fezzini!

  • http://purnicellin.com/lint colbycheese

    Pretty easy!

  • http://www.nightlyre.com Nightlyre

    Absolutely wonderful!

    Must finish Halloween costume… must not go watch Princess Bride….

  • http://www3.telus.net/aviart/elfinesse/index.html Jen

    SQUEEE!
    I screamed with laughter when I saw Gaffer. And gosh Al'bert is pretty. I can't believe I actually think he's prettier than Sangwine for once!
    And lol Zedwig's DO NOT WANT/NOT AMUSED look…
    There. I read it again, and screamed with laughter again.

  • Nick D

    You have suddenly become the coolest webcomic artist ever.

  • Lu

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA… so good <3

  • Annalia

    Suddenly? I thought that was a well-established fact! ;P

  • LNilstria

    Wow. XD This is probably one of the greatest things I've ever seen.

    As Annie said, LINT + Princess Bride = epic win XD You're the greatest, Colby!!

    *has a hernia for the laughing*

    O_o

    XD

  • Memmy

    Bwahaha! This made my day! I've notice the resemblece between Lint and Princess Bride before, but never thought about it in depth. My favorite would be the fourth panel. Na-na-na-na-na-nah!

    Colby, you're full of wins! :D

  • Loos

    I think I love you.

    Princess Bride = teh AWSUM

  • Jess C.

    that is possibly the best Halloween comic strip I have ever seen … two favorites combined to make Princess Bride Lint! (or a Linty Princess Bride? hmmm.) LOL!

  • HelenaHermione

    Oh, this is just so irrelevant, it's priceless! I especially love Xylic and Hope together as Miracle Max and Valerie- it's just the weirdest odd couple, seeing them grow old and miserable together, and then Stump as Fezzini…it's just so inconceivable! Though if he's smarter than he looks, than it can definitely be quite fitting…and oh, Al'bert as Inigo Montoya, I never would have imagined him as the heroic Spaniard, but then there is the 'Romantic' quality about him-aka, 'French' to 'Spaniard'- that just fits. And Fang and Zedwig…oh yes, they belong together.

  • HelenaHermione

    Woops, one thing-you should have added 'today' at the end of 'towgevah' for Gaffer Priest. Little heads up on the quote I can't help remembering…

  • Zypher

    Oh my gosh, Princess Bride! I LOVE that story!!!!!

    And Sangwine DEFINITELY fits as Wellesley. Though Zedwig as the six fingered man… well, I suppose it fits in that he is unfortunately glued to Fang/Humperdick's side…

  • Faticia

    My friend and I once tried to recite the entire movie backwards. I am confident that we could have done it at the time, but thankfully, the day did not have enough hours so we abandoned the attempt. So, no, that is not sad, or at least it isn't as sad as some of us. :D

  • Faticia

    This made my day!!!!!!! Each panel is better than the last! :D DD

  • Deva Bienevu

    Brilliant!
    I wish I could say more, something clever, but I have to go and have my sides stiched up, now that I've busted them with laughter…

  • http://www.true-magic.com/ Aja

    Pfffahahaa! You rock. That totally made my day. :D Particularly panels four and five. ♥

  • amanda

    I LOVE IT! :D I love the Hope and Xylic scene! Priceless LMAO

  • Mira of Avin

    <wipes tears from eyes> I absolutely LOVE this page! Just…SQUEE ok words are not enough to express the joy this page gave me! (^.^)/ Colby for the wins!

  • Anko

    In regards to your poll, I have such a hard time deciding whether you mean who would make the best costume as in, if a person were to dress up, which character would be the best to dress up in, or which character would physically craft the best costume to wear for their halloween night. I went with the latter interpretation . . . ^_^;;

  • the_pale_lady

    BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

    thank you that made my day…the end panel perfect!!!!!

  • Jess

    I never thought I would see the day that my two favorite comedic-fantasy works would join into one uber creation! I am in love!

  • Kenosaki

    YES!! The Princess Bride meets LinT. This page is infinitely awesome!

  • http://bardessc.livejournal.com Celidah

    AHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Brilliant! Although I wonder if Bactine would consider coming out of the screen and beating you up for making her Buttercup. ;)

  • Halflight17

    can't stop lookng at this…it's just too good

  • Calenlass Greenleaf

    Took me four days, but I finished what you’ve drawn/written so far. I’ll admit the beginning made me a little skeptical (I really shouldn’t be speaking because my art is nowhere near your quality. Still in the process of teaching myself), but I continued reading, and wasn’t disappointed.

    I love your elves. Then again, I have a fondness for all elves…I once was a half-Legolas fangirl, but…meh, my interests turned. He’s become secondary. Anyway, I won’t tell you how much I like Sangwine (Elf—check. Prince—check…), Xylic (Half-elves…mm), and Fang (I like angst too much, especially angsty elves).

    Looking forward to more.

  • lizybeth

    aaaaaahahahahahahaaa!
    Hope as Miracle Max's wife is hilarious!
    How long have you been planning this, Colby?

  • Robin Goodfellow

    Wow. Xylic as Magical Max.. that's amazing!
    Actually, the whole thing is amazing, so..

  • Littera

    I love you.

    I watched that movie repeatedly when I was a young child and can still recite the whole thing today. It has made me who I am. O_O

  • Mia

    I love this comic so much!

    …Ahahaha, Xylic and Hope. PRICELESS.

  • http://purnicellin.com/lint colbycheese

    I actually just kinda sat down and did it. I batted around a lot of ideas for Halloween, and then realized PB had a lot of good fits for Lint characters, but had to do a bunch of them… not just one or two like I traditionally have for Halloween. So I just took all the scenes that popped out in my mind and did it all from memory.

    “There's a shortage of perfect breasts in this world, it would be a pity to damage yours.”

    Thankyou so much for this.

  • Kesela

    yay!!!!! This is so awesome!!!! <3 Princess Bride

  • Deva Bienevu

    I watched The Princess Bride last night.
    And drove everyone nuts with my yelling “STUMP! DERF!… AH, IT'S SANGWINE! BACTINE'S ROLLING AFTER HIM!…Xylic's coming! LOOK! IT'S HOPE! …His name. is Al'bert. YOU KILLED HIS FATHER! FAAAAAAAANG!”

    I'm surprised I finished the movie. Fully expected did I to be knocked out in the first half hour..

  • Archeress

    Hey! I just had to come back and comment again. This is AWESOME! I was laughing mightily, I tell you.

    OMG Al'bert! I love you! Now I want to see him and Zedwig swordfight. Please make them swordfight! Please? *sad puppy face* XD

  • Gnugs

    Colby, this was absolutely fabulous!

  • http://angely-i-demony.smackjeeves.com Kono-chan

  • Ultimate Wombat

    Thank You

  • Me

  • yerk

    lol sorry about the REALLY late comment i “lost” your website :( just now catching up

  • KelseyBells

    OH MY GOD!!!! When you combine LinT and the Princess Bride, you have a great comic strip! I can practically recite the whole movie! I don't know just how many times I hear “Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.” a day. It's inevitable NOT to hear it each day for me. I <3 PRINCESS BRIDE!!! No, I “WIV” IT!!! (Inside joke) (Tee-Hee)

  • KelseyBells

    Oh, and, by the way, may I point out that this is totally random and off-topic! Luv it!

  • Perseph Oni

    This is awesome! Princess Bride is one of my all time favorite movies. =) Well done.

  • Puck

    See, I really think you should have gone with, “There is a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. It would be a pity to damage yours.” For Sangwine. >> 

    Also. Anybody want a peanut? <3!
