I know the world is about to end and all, but seriously. These mercs do not get paid enough to venture into hell and act as a meat shield for the hero. Even if they can be resurrected. That whole dying thing has to hurt at least a little bit. If not the dying part itself, then at least the fireball to the face that resulted in said dying.
And archer mercenaries are shit.
Also, was anyone else ever baffled by the fact that Jeryhn let you run around solving like 8 other quests in his town before he bothered to mention “Oh, hey, mister heroes, my palace is overrun by demons. Think maybe you could help with that? Thanks.”
He’s locked out of his palace because DEMONS have kicked him out, and yet he just sits around waiting for us heroes to prove ourselves worthy of trying to help him clear out his palace.
Jeryhn’s a moron is what I’m saying.
[Years later update]: I’m only realizing now that I have the wrong character delivering the feminists lines. I want to difinitively establish Wolf as the jerk of the group, and this was a perfect opportumnity to help illustrate that AND I BLEW IT.
I think this will be my last Diablo comic for a while. I still had a couple more ideas, but I’m not 100% convinced that they’re funny to anyone who doesn’t love Diablo like I did. Time to go back to regular silliness.
