#783: "I'm wearing mirrored shades for absolutely no reason."
 

I don't know if it worked because Black Mage has hypnovision, or if it's because he thinks he does.

"With cannonballs" oh god. So good.

If BM lands on Onion Kid, putting him in a wheelchair for the rest of his horrible existance, I will be very much amused...

Now about the hypnovision, couldn't RM just Mime that if BM really did have hypnovision?

He'd get hypnotized before he could mime the hypnosis.

It worked because Red Mage believed it would and it'll cause BM a world of hurt. These are physical laws in the 8BT world.

Yeah, the philosophical complications are quite deep.

Either way, when Red Mage said he was wearing reflective eye-wear for no reason, well, to say the least, I cracked up.

It's funny how BM sits in the cannon bitching about being in their, instead or oh i don't know. Getting out!

Chances are that Onion kid will never suffer any direct physical harm. The fact that BM's "Hypnovision" never works leads me to believe that it's just one of his many delusions.

Well, it semi worked on Fighter...

I truly hope that wasn't a reference to Artemis Fowl and the fairy mesmer ablility. Cause that was pretty darn close.

"With Cannon Balls" is one of the funniest lines I have seen yet.

But the Mime thing isn't a thing that needs to be willed to do it...
Its more of an automatic thing... like the Hadoken, and the stealing...
RM just does it automaticly no matter if he wills it or not.

Wow.

It's almost as if the universe exists to hurt Black Mage.

Naw....you think?

But yeah. UI'm interested in seeing how this turns out....damn the suspense!

Mirrored sunglasses? Somebody's been reading Artemis Fowl.

Also, the 5th Lite Warrior is an asswipe.

Well, bear in mind that "hypnovision" for Fighter just involves telling him to do stuff. It's really neither "hypno" nor "vision" as much as it is "something" that I can't "think of" at the "moment" so I'm just using "quotation marks" like a "jackass".

And on a completely unrelated note, how is Lord Zedd the Bundy Man?

Perhaps after BM's been fired off, Jeff'll sell them a new Deathtrap?

I wonder if all the Light warriors will be shot off to different parts of the world? That would suck for Thief wouldn't it?

Awesome. I guess now Fighter now wants to try it as well, seeing how BM hat so much fun doing it.

This brings up the question... Why not use his "Me-Doken" and blast himself to wherever the cannon was aimed, leaving the other suckers to get shot out of a cannon?

Or, let them get shot first... then Hadoken himself... thereby killing off Jeff and his stupuid cannon, and having all the meat shields there for his protection.

See? RM is totally not stupid.

Because the Me-doken isn't so much a spell as a "throwing yourself at your opponents".

... I knew that.

>.>


I meant why not Hadoken himself... my bad.

Do you mean like that time when he blasted himself in the air with it?

I am loving the SOM reference with the cannon travel. If BM ends up in the Upperland, I'll probably die laughing. :p

The only thing I don't understand, is what real benefit there is to sending BM first. I mean, if this thing really is powerful enough to launch BM to an entirely different continent, it isn't like they'll be able to see if he has a safe landing.

The only slight benefit is to find out is whether the cannon is instantly fatal. So unless RM slipped BM a two-way mirror while the comic wasn't looking, I think effectively, all the LWs have done is find a way to rid themselves of a certain teammate.

SWB

You're wrong. If he's the first, he becomes the landing, and landing on BM is always preferable than whatever sadistically painful terrain he falls upon.

BM should be alright if he remembers to cast featherfall. And also I wonder if the other LWs will join him or is there going to be another breakup in the team?

Obviously BM won't end up in Lefein at all, as Brian would love nothing more than to dash to pieces the one light in our otherwise dark and foreboding lives by ending 8BT as soon as possible. BM will undoubtedly land right in the Sky Castle directly on top of Tiamat who will be instantly killed. BM will then fall back to earth, crashing through the roof of Sarda's cave where he will find the other Light Warriors with the Air Orb after Fighter remembers that found it years ago and stuck it in the Armoire of Invincibility for safe keeping. Sarda will then transform in Chaos and kill White Mage, causing Black Mage to have an epiphany which he quickly forgets when Fighter mentions how much he loves swords. The series will end with the Light Warriors and Sardaos all having a tea party and the last panel will feature Garland being chased by Forest Imps.

And that's just Tuesday's comic.

I think you may have just blew my mind. :confused:

BM will fall in the land of glass and sharp things.

When you look at blackmages hat, it's all pointy and stuff, more like a missle than a cannon ball. Nowadays' those hootinany kids down at them military weapon design bases make missle smart, like guided missles. But I don't think they have guided missles in the land of Final Fantasy 1, and besides what the hell would a missle be doing in an old cannon?

Derek!!!! don't I know you from the Pagoda?

But, either way you can't really launch a missile out of a cannon anyway.

I think Black Black mage is going to have a safe landing, unlike everyone else who thinks he'll have a horrible landing, such as on nails and such. I think he'll land just fine, its just when RM, Theif and Fighter come crashing down on him is when it'll go horrible.

Is i the first person to suspect hope the cannon will just blow BM up without gining him any distance? "Oh yeah, the safety was on, I just turn it off and shot again."

Mythbusters says you can shoot a missile from a cannon.

Hang on, maybe his hat'll make him aerodynamic so he overshoots the target?

I was going to ask "Now, how can this be turned to hurt BM?" Then I realized he was about to be shot out of a canon.

Life is good.

Shooting missiles from canons is, essentially, what tanks do. Just very advanced cannons that aren't really very much like true artillery. But my point is the principle is the same.

MythWarriors?
 

"Mythbusters says you can shoot a missile from a cannon."

Yes, very true!

In the case of tests involving living subjects, the Mythbusters usually substitute ballistics gel, or a dead pig. Not a cannonball... Black Mage, you poor sucker.

Wow. That would be the strangest crossover. Who'd manage to hurt themself first? Fightar or Adam Savage?

Beware of the double poster, his unconsious discions can be the death of you.

You seem almost suprised that they'd do that.

GOT IT!

BM learns it like Blue Magic, and cannons all the other bastards to wherever he is regardless of whether or not they agree to sitting in Jeff's cannon.

I don't want to think about how Jeff is going to be affected when BM Blue Magic cannon's him.

Or else it's possible that BM will Hadoken a tree using up all his magic, and being forced to wait until the enxt day before casting the cannon spell, by which time the other LWs will have convinced Jeff to send them over to Leifein by safer, less painful means.


Edit: Or maybe I'm wrong. I'll stick to my original theory that Not-Akbar actually transported them to leifein.
