Slaad jokes. You don’t often see those. ---

Glad to see Durkon’s getting a quick resurrection. “Maybe this comic can get back to, like, adventuring, or something.” --Haley’s Inner Self ---

“Not matching” is kind of the whole point of slaaden. ---

What color is the Monster in the Dark’s speech balloon? Does that tell us anything? I notice the Slaad has a funny color speech balloon. ---

The Slaad actually squicked me a little, but not in a bad way. Hm: that didn’t come out right. Those less familiar with D&D and eager to be further appalled can read about Red Slaads over here: [Red slaad | Forgotten Realms Wiki | Fandom](https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Red_slaad) [Blogger Keith Ammann](http://themonstersknow.com/slaad-tactics/) opines, “I think the writers missed a great opportunity by not calling them “slaadpoles””. Moving on, I doubt whether we’ve seen the last of Minrah. ---

Not too surprised about Minrah changing her mind. She had a lot of screen time for being a minor character who just disappears from the stage. Burlew wants to add more female main characters. He tried with the pirate woman, but she didn’t click very well with fans. So he’s trying another one. It’s not that fans don’t like Bandana, but she’s just not anyone’s favorite character. Not enough jokes, I think. ---

Bandana served her purpose for now and we’ll see her again. ---
