AROTD fantasy cover, by Nigbun.
Steely Gaze on July 6, 2009
Hey everybody, I figured it was high time to announce the exact date A Roll of the Dice shall be returning! I had to push back the return date by a week, but otherwise the plan remains unchanged. AROTD returns on Friday, July 24, and will continue with one new page per week.
Oh, and the lovely picture you're seeing today? Well that was drawn by the talented Nigbun who of course brings us Give Me the Sky and a new comic titled TAG.
She based the design on the cover for the boxed set of the old Dungeons and Dragons cartoon. From left to right we have: Richard, Andrew, Jared, Henry, Toni, and Gordon. And the unicorn? That'd be Erik. Somehow fitting I suppose….

Not necessarily though! It just depends who you point him at :)

Whoops, time for some late replies! @Lulululuqtqt: Actually, Andrew and Toni do look surprisingly similar, even in the actual comic. That was unintentional by me, but is interesting, and could bear some playing around with, storyline-wise. @Trevor: Thanks, man. It's always kinda groovy to see the gang as drawn by someone other than CK. @Patrick: Yeah, well to be perfectly frank, watching that cartoon isn't advisable. It was awful. But since it was D&D based (loosely), it does make for a good fit. @Amanda: That was my reaction to seeing it. Along with a few delighted squeals. Manly squeals mind you! @CK: *shifts your butt into gear* Go forth, CK! Your butt is ready for comicking! @Flup: Giving Henry a club normally equals bad tidings, very bad tidings. :P Well, we'll be seeing you with a new page soon. :)

I never saw that cartoon so it's good that you explained that. Otherwise I'd have spent hours guessing which book cover that was supposed to be.

Yay your comic is coming back! Great fan art, by the way!

I like. I just realised how similar Andrew and Toni look, 'cept for the tan. Or is that just me?
