#416 – He who has been hurt most

!!!

And so, with this is the last update before I head off to FamilyReunionLand for the next ten days. However! I’ll still be “updating” on Friday and twice next week with some silly omake comics that I hope you’ll enjoy. The next real Lint update will be on July 14th.

That said, thank you to everyone who donated! There is still one day left, more or less, until the fundraiser is over, so you do still have a chance to get in on it here.

Last, as of tomorrow Ron and I have been married 15 years. (WHAT!?)

Thanks for reading!

  • Eliza
    C'mon Zedwig!!!! Yeah!
  • Crystal
    O.O i totally missed it... went straight from the last one to the omakes! OMG!!!!! i'm sad now...
  • LuckyMrph
    AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-OW!!!!!!!!! I almost know what that feels like! btw this whole page is genius! Was this earring magic by any chance?
  • Ealdor
    O.O He's dead.
  • heh. But will Zedwig even notice?
  • Of course he will!
  • LuckyMrph
    YOOUUCH! ow...ow...ow... OW! GO SANGWINE! YOU ROCK! This whole page is just amazing!
  • CC
    Wow! The suspense is killing me! Will Zedwig really kill Fang?
  • LeafyGreenTerrorist
    What if you drew Bactine spraying Bactine on Zedwig? That would make me giggle : )

    I just found out that Bactine was an antibacterial spray thing for cuts!The girl I babysit was holding a spray bottle, and I asked her what it was. She held out the bottle of Bactine and said, "It's boo-boo spray!" xD I cracked up.
  • Jen
    I wondered why that name always made me think of bacitracin ointment
  • RissRiss
    PWNED. Go Zedwig, GO!!
  • Celidah
    O_o

    Methinks it would have been kinder to kill Fang outright...Sang had better start running right about NOW to avoid the fallout!

    Also, happy anniversary! DH and I just celebrated our a few weeks ago ourselves. :)
  • lizybeth
    Panel 3: YOINK!
  • Kenosaki
    Oh my goodness!!! This is amazing!! Poor Fang, it hurts when earrings are ripped out. Still this is Way awesome!
  • Sylvara
    I'm soooo glad ! It must hurts, but I don't feel the least bit sorry for Fang, so it's pure satsfaction in here ! The suspens is perfect, and I... I fear the story will comes to and end, I ... will miss it too much. And what about Al'bert and Bactine ?
    (Just one thing, I have a sort of horrible feeling about Zedwig... he-he won't die, right ? Right ??? sob! please...)
  • HelenaHermione
    Happy anniversary, Ron and Colby!

    And may I just say--very good spot to leave us on a cliff-hanger. Oh, the suspense! Oh, the agony! (Seriously, yikes! That's got to hurt for Fang, just look at the fear/terror on his face/in his eye--of course, that could be for realizing what's about to happen...and then I just noticed the drops of blood, very nice touch...)

    Can the others be saved with this maneuver? And what about grabbing the earring before, why couldn't Sang do that? Of course, when they were fighting, they had the swords up between them...never mind.)

    Yes...it will end soon. I will miss it then.
  • Kelsey57
    Okay. I forgot to mention that I love the desperate grab in the 5th panel and the fact that Sangwine immediately destroys the earring (rather than forcing Zedwig to stop by putting it on himself- I doubt this even crossed his mind). Sang pwnage!!!
  • If Sang used it himself there would be a chance of Fang taking it back, so it was probably the wisest course of action to just outright destroy it. :-D

    Look Colby! 145%!! :D

    And how dare I post before and not say Happy Anniversary! ^_^
  • Uhh... Happy Canada Day!
  • Kelsey57
    YES!!!!!!

    and YES!!!!!!! This is awesome and SO FULFILLING and I CAN'T WAIT.

    And Congratulations on the anniversary! Here's to fifteen more years and beyond!

    A purely artistic note- I love the foot stomp. The swirls of smoke, the action lines, the shards of the earring... I also love the first panel (facial expression!) and for some reason the wall texture of the 4th panel. And yay! Color!
  • TWD
    This is SO PERFECT. Nice spot for a break. :)

    Anyone else find it interesting that Fang's calling Sangwine by his nickname? I'd say it sounds like an appeal to his brother, but his expression doesn't agree.
  • Fangline and Sangwine have called each other "Fang" and "Sang" since they were too young to remember. Calling him "Sangwine" would feel stilted and weird for Fang.
  • a) owww, ow, and ow.

    b) yay! Zedwig gets his revenge soon, I hope?

    c) Happy anniversary! ^^
  • lizybeth
    Zedwig can has revengeburger?
  • A Reader
    *dramatic gasp* This is such a well done page in a theatrical sense. I love it! =D
  • Noah
    Wow! Epic! Sang rocketh in this one! Justice!

    Congrats on your fifteenth anniversary!


    !Noah!
  • spas
    happy anniversary, colby! love sangwine's actions here.

    interesting how the readers are more disturbed by an earring being yanked out of an ear than by bactine being literally drained of her life to save zed's and sang's...or by people being killed, which is infinitely more painful. i think it's because having an earring yanked out is more something people can relate to or imagine happening to them.
  • Haha - so true! I think I would react more to a person getting shot, then to a person getting stabbed, since I am so used to swords, but not to guns. Also... I don't wear earrings, so I did react more strongly to the Bactine's deaths... Twice.
  • Robert_K
    Congratulations on your 15th anniversary!
  • ellie
    yay for the page! Congrats on your anniversary too! I'm an un-married young-un. But I hope that my marriage will last that long some day. And longer too!
  • Dani
    OWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!! That hurts just to contemplate!!
  • Dharen
    Woot Fang gets his comeuppance. 'Bout time. I can imagine Zedwig's initial evil cackle of glee.
  • Pip
    Congratulations on your anniversary! And may there be many, many more!
  • yukiange
    Ooohh... ouch... that looks... painfull... -covers own ear- The suspence shall kill me while I wait!
    Still.
    Owwww...
  • Zypher
    YES! I KNOW it hurts to have an earring yanked on, led alone out, but I so will LOVE seeing Zedwig finally get what he wants. I remember how thrilled Zedwig was earlier with "I'm going to be the one to kill you!"

    Congrats on your anniversairy, Colby!
  • Aaaaahhhh ooow ow ow ow! That is an awesome page Colby, but it makes me cringe so very much. Ow. Ow oww ow ow ow.

    And congratulations on your anniversary!
  • Inkblot
    Augh, the pain...! And the awesome magic-earring-crushing effect. I wouldn't have thought that Sang had it in him.

    On one hand, that is a terribly suspenseful place to have an intermission, but on the other it is so cool I don't mind.
  • Oh there is an effect! It's nice when you take the special-effects as part of the realism, but... Then again, maybe I play too many RPGs :)
  • Jess
    Ho' shoes. I love this page. :D I'm sorry that this wonderful epic is finally coming to an end. But it is wonderful! Congratulations on your anniversary.
  • Kade
    OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This makes me unreasonably excited!!!
  • Falco
    YIKES.
    ...that's about all I can think of to say.
  • Falco
    oh yeah, and is it supposed to be "was" or "has" in the page title?
  • Crystal
    who was been? maybe she changed it... O.o cuz has seems right... UGH i wish my computer didn't skip on me like that! T.T
  • Guh, thank you. I get too cross-eyed from making these pages to do things like SPELL.
  • Ouchie. O_O I bet that hurt having an earring yanked out of your ear. (See the blood flying?)

    Nooooooooooo....cliffhanger. T-T
  • Jen
    Oh god, I didn't see the blood. I had assumed it was a hook earring -- look you can see it in panel 5. But then there is blood...

    This is so exciting! I can't wait to see what happens!!

    HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
