Nice page where we can see that he is really competent at hand to hand combat !

I think he’s improvising a new fighting style, replacing his usual style of getting-killed-and-respawn-on-each-punch 🙂

Is this the first time we’ve seen that he’s actually fairly skilled at more than great throwing aim?

Ah, Henchman. Unexpected, as its a new so far.

Yeah, I thought so as well, but turns out I just hadn’t been paying enough attention. On Page 14, you can see three henchmen just hanging around on the floor level, next to the raised platform. Meaning one more rando still waiting for their time to shine.

Wait.

… I know we do this bit all the time – the whole “Oooo, hey, Captain Prime is Lilah!” or “Deathblood is Ethan’s girlfriend!” or whatnot, but…

… I swear, if that henchman mentions Counter-Strike, I’m going to lose my freaking mind.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen Rob, but I don’t remember him having stubble on the top of his head. Would be funny, though.

Wasn’t he just in universe one? Would be super funny though!

Wasn’t Rob rebooted as one of the megagame employees that work with Thad? I know that doesn’t change the possibility of him being under that mask but still.

https://cad-comic.com/comic/desperate-measures-p13/ is Rob’s last appearance. He has more hair, while this guy looks like he has a freshly shaved head.

Also, why would Rob team up with the Troll and Elijah against his own paycheck? He seems fine with his job, just annoyed by Ethan’s dismissiveness of him.

Damn, good to know that Ethan can actually scrap and isn’t entirely reliant on his power to fight, that high kick into the knee is fuckin’ epic!

Got to hate it when you get adds in the middle of a bossfight.

I think Scott needs to reiterate the difference between immunity and resistance again.

At this point, I’m pretty sure Scott has several infographics depicting the differences that he just pulls out and hands to Ethan.

Higher ups on the troll’s online cadre; they have their own masks. Bet the one with the crowbar’s the armpit origin.

Don’t you just hate it when the DM pulls out a few extra minions in the 3rd round just because he can?

MAAANN , you just reminded me that he stopped doing the DnD comic, and I’m sad now.

The troll fell into a passing truck full of toxic goo ten years ago.

I wonder if the new schedule will have his arc end by the exact ten year anniversary (the 16th)

So I had fallen out of sync with CAD sometime after the 1.0 ended. I remember reading a bit of the start of Analog and D-Pad, but I missed the original crew. Lately I had been seeing comics come up on my doom scrolling through Facebook, so I went back and reread CAD from the beginning (did skip side bits once 1.0 ended and swapped here) and am now caught up…..I don’t like being caught up, lol.

Ah yes… The Comic Binge! The only thing worse than catching up is getting to the “end” and the author has a post announcing a 3 month hiatus dated March 2017.

In this stage, I just hope no one will fall into the ominous pool down there
