Gunnerkrigg went the predictable, by narrative at least, route with this new event. When everyone knows, without a doubt, with no questions, then it's not going to happen.

That wasn't much predictable at all though, it was set up that apparently a "she" was chosen, so everyone naturally assumed the plot twist was for Parley.

This came out of bodaciously nowhere.

No, I already pretty much knew it was going to happen. Remember Jones said "She is the clear choice," but Jones is not the Court. She's a respected guest of it. Parley doesn't have the right skillset for a medium, whereas Andrew is a good fit. I mean hell, he can induce order subconsciously on a whim. That's incredible.

Annie never had a chance because it was just too obvious, both to the reader and the characters. It's the nature of a narrative to throw curveballs at the protagonist, to never let them have a moment's peace. This will knock her off balance which keeps the story interesting.

However, the Court has some plan in the works, that much is obvious. In-character they may not have selected her because she would ruin said plan. She's a wild card who leans more towards the forest than the Court nowadays. Whereas Andrew they think will ensure their dream of complete and total order, the Court conquering the wild, because that's just who he is and can't help it.

Yeah, Smitty's just an order-bomb to be dropped on the chaos of the forest

Annie would have been the obvious choice because she could actually maintain neutrality between Court and Coyote. The Court has shown it doesn't want that at all.

I would love Goblins so much more if it would update on time.

It did? Sounds like a typical existentialism joke to me.

Tycho Brahe was a famous Astrologer of the 16th century. The Penny Arcade Tycho borrowed his name as an online handle.

And, for reference, Tycho 1.0 did in fact wear a prosthetic nose.

Oh, that was yesterday's SMBC. I forgot Brahe was mentioned.

I wonder how Coyote and Ysengrin will react to this choice.

Everyone else seems to be stunned by this choice.

Antimony seems much more hurt than I expected.

Furthermore... Antimony is expelled, goes back home and lives a normal live as a 9 to 5 worker. The end.

That guy without glasses in the fourth panel is Mr. Eglamore.

What McNinja doesn't realize is that taking down a criminal empire built on the most radical of things, by it's very nature, requires radical action.

He is only making King Radical's plan move faster.
