Mostly I think he knows he can't win and won't be able to win anyone over with any sort of "Ethics" talk.

I think it was more that he found it hilarious HE was the one giving the talk. Roles were reversed he'd be the one doing the dangling and although he is many things, a hipocrit is not one of them. Never seen him yell at someone for doing what he himself would do.

I'm almost tempted to say this is one of at least three times that Belkar has used the What the Hell, Hero trope...

Eh, screw it, he went there.

Good lord, Haley, control yourself!

Smooth exposition and a good joke. Good stuff in this comic.

I do like that Burlew's not shying away from expanding on character relationships IE sex - Elan's experience with the sorceress chick back in the second book comes to mind too.

Bolded in the name of Freud.

In fairness, I think the poison toothed thing was something in Belkars book, nto the actual worm.

Only makes it a little less disturbing though.

Don't worry Belkar, Baron Harkonnen will be alright!

HAPPY END!

So, uh, Girard is/may be alive? I always kinda took it for granted that all of those people were dead. Come to think of it, that was never explicitly stated, but this is still kind of a surprise.
