What's this? Uther knows that Saidan Dathrohan is the dreadlord Balnazzar? I see a hint of fear and confusion in Dathrohan's face in that third panel. Or maybe he's just gassy. You know a holy ass kicking is inbound but will the guards get their sacks up and attack this man who claims to be THE Uther Lightbringer?
I love making these big, artsy comic panels. Yes they take a while longer to create because I'm supremely anal and borderline obsessive compulsive about detail. They're like screencaps from a Cru the Dwarf movie complete with Sony Vegas and Adobe After Effects FX. I'm ready for my Emmy now.
A big thanks to everyone who has donated. Your continued support of the comic gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to making that Whitemane fan service.
Speaking of fan service a new piece of fan art goodness is up at TWC from Runehoof on deviantArt. If you can't get enough of super-sized Lora sandwiching phallic buildings between her breasts then you'll enjoy this latest voter incentive.
8-23-09: Updated the page with the new lighting effect.
8-28-09: Updated the voter incentive yet again with a fan-made drawing of Deathwing courtesy of A Rogue with Two Sides. Also my mother was released from the hospital today so I'm going to be very busy for a few days. I'll try to find an opening to make a new page but I'm going to be so pressed for time and things will be so hectic that I'm going to be even more stressed-out.
8-29-09: Okay, so the update clearly didn't happen. Things are hectic around here and I feel like having a break-down. I just don't have the time or energy to put into creating a new page and I have no estimate as to when I'm going to update next week. Trying to pressure myself into making an update is extra stress I don't need right now.
Hi Cru! I joined DrunkDuck just for this comic! The lighting experiment just pushed me enough to fave you as a member since I've been reading your comic since page one. Anyway, I hope things get better and less stressful for you.
I'll try to get an update made either Friday or Saturday depending on how I feel. I wanted to do it Wednesday but I got down with the sickness (Ooh ah ah ah ah).
When the new expansion comes out, I hope there's a quest that sends to you figure out if anything bad has happened to Karazhan. When you get there, it's a smoldering crater (or at least it's just partially blown up, but I'd hold out for "smoldering crater.")
There's a dwarf nearby. You run up to him, saying "Did Deathwing do this?"
The dwarf looks at you and says "Death-woo? Nah, this was mah bad. I overloaded mah gun a little bit."
"So you're sure the earthquakes and lava didn't do..." You stop, dumbfounded. "You did this?"
"Yeah," he says. "I stashed mah key somewhere... under a rock... in the Searing Gorge..."
"Are you drunk?"
"Just a wee bit."
Then he gives you a quest, the rewards of which are various items from the comic.
How's THAT for an in-game reference?
I HAVE RETURNED!!!! Man this whole 'visit Europe with your father in his truck' was a pain in the ass. I was away for 6 WEEKS and didn't see shit except highways and industrial platforms
Ever notice the [url=http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/thumb/c/c7/Deathwing_Cataclysm.jpg/352px-Deathwing_Cataclysm.jpg]jaw on Blizzard's Deathwing[/url] and the helm of my own [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Cru_The_DwarF/index.php?p=562201]human form of Deathwing[/url]?
Is this a tip-of-the-hat to me, Blizzard? If so I'm flattered.
Anyone have tips on using WordPress/ComicPress to build a website? Once again I'm thinking of moving to my own domain and was wanting some more info before deciding.

The events in the current storyline happen before WOTLK so Worgen will not be appearing in it. Bunch of shut-ins.
Arthiax at 1:08PM, Aug. 26, 2009
You're awesome Cru! How will the Worgen affect your storyline? :3 or will you use them as slaves for his evil schemes?

everything can be solved with a little hate-mail and a hostage trade.
