8-Bit Theater is a Spite... er, Sprite Comic by Brian Clevinger that ran from 2001 to 2010. Its plot, an Affectionate Parody of the first Final Fantasy, follows the four Light Warriors (who really aren't the best for the job): Fighter McWarrior, an astoundingly stupid sword-obsessed warrior; Black Mage Evilwizardington, an Ax-Crazy homicidal sociopath who is only held back by the Rule of Funny and a tendency to get hurt; Thief, a fugitive prince of elf clan Khee'bler armed with extreme greed and an expertise in manipulative contracts; and Red Mage Statscowski, a so-called strategist who considers life to be a tabletop game, is obsessed with his stats, and was tricked into liking cross dressing.The strip's humor comes mostly from the violent nature of its protagonists, the absurd situations they find themselves in, and a little screwing around with videogame tropes (mainly RPG tropes, but others do come into play). It is one of the original sprite comics, having started the year after Bob and George and eventually outstripping it in terms of popularity (at least partly because the latter comic ended in 2007). It also defined the dysfunctional party dynamic that would go on to fill every single other fantasy webcomic that came after it.At various points over the years, the comic also featured Character Blogs/Fourth Wall Mail Slots for Red Mage and Evil Princess Sara.After nine years, two fake endings, well over a thousand strips, and (at least) two of the longest-ranged Call Backs in the history of the webcomic medium, 8-Bit Theater finally ended. A few months after the last proper comic's publication, Clevinger published a long epilogue to wrap things up; it was written by Clevinger and drawn by Matt Speroni (How I Killed Your Master).In 2021, as a 20th anniversary celebration, a crowdfunded annotated script (because, as highlighted by the subtitle "Do Not Sue Edition", printing a comic based on video game sprites is just begging for the attention of "the brilliant and attractive lawyers at Square-Enix"... and also, the original pages are too low-resolution to be worth printing) was announced, to be released on both PDF and Door Stopper editions.

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: The Dark Warriors (wrongly) assumed this when they found Light Warriors sharing the bed. They were so moved by what they saw that they couldn't bring themselves to kill the sleeping Light Warriors. In a bizarre example, there is Thief and Red Mage comforting Black Mage that he contributed to the world's imminent destruction.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Earlier strips had King Steve serving as a George W. Bush parallel, though done in an extremely over the top Strawman representation; drilling for Mana in wildlife preserves, bit of a warmonger, and low popularity.

Card-Carrying Villain
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_137f2d7
comment
Black Mage is one to Garland. Both are CardCarrying Villains, but while Black Mage plays the part of an Omnicidal Maniac held back only by his Butt-Monkey status, Garland is a Minion with an F in Evil Anti-Villain who gets somewhat less fairly punished by the universe for existing, at least until he switches to less destructive hobbies. Furthermore, while Black Mage readily turns on his teammates if he gets the chance, Garland at least tries to be A Father to His Men, and is more held back by his team not reciprocating than anything.

Evil Versus Evil

comment
Evil Versus Evil: The author once claimed that "no matter who wins, the villains win." Though in the end it was one of the few more or less "good" characters, White Mage, who won. In a world where the "heroes" are worse than the villains (except Sarda and Chaos) and single-handedly responsible for most of the world's suffering; the people in charge of things are insane, megalomaniacal, or both; and any attempts to bring any sort of peace or happiness seem to fail by default, the only thing preventing it from getting too dark is seeing just how over the top the Black Comedy gets.

Those Two Guys
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_1c79ae8c
comment
Those Two Guys: Depending on how smart/stupid everyone is acting, Thief and Red Mage. They'll often act saner/smarter in contrast to Black Mage's Omnicidal Maniac tendencies and Fighter's...well...Fighter tendencies. This usually means trying to screw over everyone else for some temporary advantage. Then again, this depends on a number of factors coming together.

Chekhov's Gun: Longest Set Up In Webcomic History. In comic 7, there's a throwaway joke when Black Mage is reading a strategy guide. "Four White Mages? It'll never work!" In the end, Chaos is killed by White Mage, Shaman, Priest, and Healer. Not quite as big a setup as the prior one, but the dialogue in this comic returns to haunt us.

Aborted Arc: Clevinger played with this to help create the Anti-Climax. Each Light Warrior has an avatar of some sort trying to prepare each of them for their large and important destinies. However, they all eventually get fed up and leave, unable to take all the insanity and stupidity. None of them are ever mentioned again and don't have anything to do with the story's ultimate resolution.

Ironic Hell: After being severely beaten by Berserker, Thief ends up in his personal Hell where he owns everything. Thief is overjoyed... until a trickster god called Raven points out to him that there's nothing left to steal in this Hell. Realizing that, Thief starts begging the god to revive him. However, it's revealed later that Thief didn't actually die — Berserker only knocked him unconscious — and his personal Hell was probably an illusion created by Raven, who wanted to take advantage of Thief's desperation. The real hell, too.

Only Sane Man
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_24321e44
comment
When Black Mage isn't in an omnicidal rage, he is typically the Only Sane Man, and will point out flaws in logic, be the only voice of reason, and will even lean heavily against the fourth wall. However, whenever he is sane, one of the Light Warriors (usually) will do or say something stupid or frustrating, and there seems to be only a certain level of this he can take before he feels the "need to destroy." The stupider the idea (which happens to be proportional to the amount of participation Fighter has in its conception for some completely bizarre reason), the more likely he'll just snap all together. There's a slight problem when that happens...

Funny Background Event: There is, for example, Black Mage trying to ask White Mage out in the second half of this strip or Red Mage's battle with dragon in this one. Also, the screen in the background of this one. Red Mage and Bikke bouncing on Black Mage's bed together.

Karma Meter: The weapons that can only be wielded by good people establish a rough estimate. Fighter can wield them without issue, they hurt Red Mage but he can still hold them, Thief immediately drops the one he touches from the pain, and Black Mage is set on fire just from touching the hilt of one.

Small Name, Big Ego
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_28a5213a
comment
Small Name, Big Ego: Black Mage, Red Mage, all Elves. Black Mage is an odd case. He admits straight out back in the beginning that he knows he's "vile" and evil. He's rather proud of it, in fact. He even knows that his one-liners are horrible and that he annoys White Mage into almost Unstoppable Rage. What's strange is that he thinks that is charismatic and appealing to women. So, this trope still applies as he thinks that he is the ultimate ladies' man. His idea of what that is is just really very...er... distorted. King Steve probably has an over-inflated image of himself as well. Seriously, if he thinks of himself that way...

Limited-Use Magical Device: Referenced when the "Light Warriors" come across Chancellor Usurper while he's monologuing and he attempts to defend his actions by claiming he was reading from a letter that disappeared like a scroll. To which Black Mage states that scrolls don't disappear, just the writing on them.

Conversational Troping: About the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny—Black Mage and Red Mage discussed who would win in a fight between Batman and Dr. Doom, as well as in a fight between Green Arrow and Bullseye. Several hypothetical matches were also discussed in the column "Twinkin' Out with Red Mage". Black Mage and Thief once passed time by conversing about other interpretations of Lex Luthor, with Black Mage suggesting that he is actually the hero of the DC universe.

Artifact Title: Originally, the comic was to have consisted of a rotating series of sprite comics based on various NES-era games, hence the title 8-Bit Theater. As it turned out, the Final Fantasy comic was the only one that ended up actually getting made. He created one other he used as filler.

No One Should Survive That!
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_2c7dc9c6
comment
No One Should Survive That!: Fighter, all the time (much to Black Mage's chagrin). So much that the other Light Warriors count on him somehow being able to survive random situations. Black Mage also qualifies. Among other examples, Sarda dropped Australia on him and he survived. Qualifies as an Incredibly Lame Pun, since he is sent to Hurt, Australia. At one point, Sarda locked Black Mage perfectly still while the rest of the universe kept moving, shifting him outside the cave. Of course, all the other molecules kept moving and shredded him at a sub-cellular level, but Sarda kept him alive out of spite.

Create Your Own Villain: Subverted.

Best Served Cold: Sarda has literally lived for billions of years to set in motion his Evil Plan to strengthen the Light Warriors so that he could kill them all at the height of their power, just to rub their insignificance in their collective faces. Best served cold indeed. Though as the Cosmic Plaything example indicates, he probably did not intend to have no choice but to wait that long.

Bad Guys Do the Dirty Work: Black Mage can generally be relied upon to throw immensely destructive magic at a life-threatening problem. ... with the side-effect that he's not very accurate and has very limited understanding of the word "subtlety". In short: the protagonists have probably reaped a higher death toll than the antagonists. Although this doesn't make moments like this any less awesome.

Stable Time Loop
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_37690091
comment
Stable Time Loop: Sarda is tortured by Black Mage as Onion Kid, is taken in by his older self, watches said older self try to get revenge on the Light Warriors, grows up to become a powerful mage, goes back in time to the origin of the universe, goes insane taking The Slow Path back to the present, decides to take revenge on the Light Warriors, repeat. And along the way, he sends White Mage to the beginning of time to keep her out of the way, where she creates the universe. Wrap your head around that predestination paradox. A smaller example: when they are at some weird space-time singularity, Thief has an idea to use the hundreds of instances of the Light Warriors to form an army. When Red Mage asks him how he got the idea, Thief says that he saw the future Red Mage doing it. Red Mage comments on the fact that he wouldn't have done it if Thief hadn't told him, and that Thief wouldn't have told him if he hadn't seen him doing it. A smaller-scale example: Sarda in the past got the idea to grow a mustache from White Mage, who got the idea from seeing Sarda with his mustache in the present day. So who came up with the idea in the first place?

Boring, but Practical
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_39b8d3d6
comment
Boring, but Practical: Feather Fall spells. Red Mage and Black Mage learn this the hard way when neither of them set aside the magical resources to actually use the spell. "Fighter, sword, door, go." Fighter summons half a dozen swords that aren't normally visible, then walks over and knocks on the door. "She'll be right out." (Next page, she is indeed.)

Fighter got considerably dumber over the years, where he was once just kind and easy to trick in the early comics. However, given the number of times he's been stabbed in the head, this might technically count as Character Development.

No Fourth Wall
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_3b4f620a
comment
No Fourth Wall: In this strip, the Light Warriors can see themselves as in the comic. Even Black Mage comments on something he says at a later point. Justified, since they're in void where space and time are meaningless. Red Mage often leans very heavily on the Fourth Wall. Considering he's a Munchkin this isn't much of a surprise (his entire order lives on the basis of manipulating the Fourth Wall). When he does say something with a meta-context expect Black Mage (if he's currently not in possession of the Insanity Ball and trying to kill everything in sight) to remark on it with either suspicion or frustration.

Pursue the Dream Job: After Black Mage is left behind by the other Light Warriors and White Mage on accident, separating him from Fighter for the first time since he was kicked out of wizarding school he announces that he is finally free to indulge in the only thing that can bring him joy in this life, and promptly takes up a job as... a cobbler. Even managing to deal with an extremely difficult customer without resorting to his usual methods.

Epiphany Comeback: Fighter's final lesson at Fighter Camp '86 is a simple question: "How many schools of Zodiac Kenshido are there?" When Fighter gives the obvious answer, 12, his master kicks him out. Much later, when fighting against Kary, he realizes there's another answer - "There aren't any. It's all in here." and starts fighting with sword-chucks.

No Kill like Overkill: Black Mage. He likes summoning the raw powers of the universe to do his bidding (apparently). This usually comes (also apparently) with a malleable sense of scale... as in "off of the". As a running gag, his love of killing things in as over-the-top a fashion as possible often leads to his attacks backfiring on him (luckily for him, he learns Feather Fall eventually).

Blatant Lies
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_40bb59d0
comment
Blatant Lies: It's a Running Gag that every lie the Light Warriors tell is one of these. They usually get away with it because everyone they lie to is incredibly stupid. Thief claims that the Light Warriors' legs are broken while they're standing on them. Thief and Red Mage say that they were possessed by ghost aliens from space. Red Mage says that he wrote "a jillion" instead of "a million" is because he had a cold that made him write all his "m"s as "j"s Black Mage tells a series of these in order to explain away the fact he tried to sell an old lady some shoes made out of a human face. The Light Warriors try to pass off a baby as a fairy by gluing some wings to its back. Black Mage stabs a random guy, tries to claim to his companion that he was a monster in disguise, and then try to prove that by carving his "mask" (actually his face) off.

comment
Bittersweet Ending: The villains threatening the world are defeated, everybody is saved, the Dark Warriors are hailed as heroes throughout the land, and Thief becomes the new king of the Elves. However due to the events of the comic the Light Warriors aren't given any credit for all the crap they went through and the group disbands. Afterwards, Red Mage and Dragoon set out to create a "sole-survivor of secret sects" club while Black Mage and Fighter just disappear, with nobody knowing what happened to them (they're actually right back where they were when the comic started). White Mage is trying to find a way to give them the credit they earned but it's left ambiguous if she'll succeed. Still, they were also prevented from achieving their largely-unsavory post-quest plans, and their various de-powerings have mellowed them out a little, to the point that all of them seem fairly happy about where they've ended up.

Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory: In-universe example—In the Castle of Ordeals, each character fought a personification of his greatest flaws, symbolically overcoming them (or at least, that's what they were supposed to do...). The final ordeal was to symbolize the team uniting to become more than the sum of their parts and transcend individuality and whatnot. When the final ordeal turns out to be "defeating a zombie dragon", Red Mage complains that the boss doesn't fit the theme.

 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_4236acb3
comment
Kid with the Leash: Surprisingly enough, this trope is applied to Thief and Black Mage. Black Mage is a nightmarishly insane killer easily able to cause ridiculous amounts of mass-destruction, and whose gut reaction to any situation is Kill It with Fire. Thief may be a Manipulative Bastard whose idea of morality is as flexible and self-rewarding as any one of his contracts, but he can control (or at least direct) a lot of Black Mage's indiscriminate destruction. If he's not there to lead the group, Black Mage tends to take charge and things tend to go downhill pretty damn quick. A good part of Thief's control over Black Mage involves the fact that prior to absorbing his Superpowered Evil Side, at least Black Mage is terrified of him.

Surrounded by Idiots
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_43a46119
comment
Surrounded by Idiots: Black Mage's temper and remaining sanity are continuously frayed by the rampant illogical insanity, stupidity and lack of all reason that tends to crop up in Red Mage's and Fighter's vicinity (which isn't exactly conducive to the good health of the group). Thief also makes the same claim, but he gets far too much enjoyment out of screwing everyone out of everything they currently or will own, to be more than occasionally annoyed by the irrationality. Poor Drizz'l gets this too: every time he thinks that he's finally pinned down the stupidest person in the room, someone, anyone opens their mouths, and he has to start all over. Of course, that's not to say that he doesn't have his Idiot Ball moments too, for comedy's sake.

 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_47fea76b
comment
Butt-Monkey: Almost everyone. More specifically: Black Mage, though he really deserves it. This assessment is basically true, as its implied that his continuous suffering is essentially the universe's immune system reacting to the abomination that is his every thought, action, and very existence. Fighter is frequently insulted and assaulted by Black Mage (but he can take it). Red Mage had his skeleton removed from his body and was later turned into a one-eyed monster (he got better). Thief was mauled by Berserker, had all his accumulated treasure smashed, was torched by Bahamut, and was shaken to oblivion by Muffin. And he stole his class change from himself in the future, just before Sarda got to the final part of his revenge. White Mage can only watch in sorrow as the Light Warriors slaughter innocents, each other, and generally ignore their "responsibility" as heroes, and that's on top of her best friend dying. Onion Kid's main purpose is to go through various torments that usually relate to Black Mage. And become Sarda. Then get possessed by Chaos. Garland went through this briefly before he founded the Dark Warriors. The "real" Light Warriors. Every bad thing imaginable happens to them. Even when they catch a break, it usually ends up backfiring. Barry, the only member of the group whose name we know, gets the worst of it. The town of Onrac is constantly getting destroyed by the Light Warriors and rebuilt only to get destroyed yet again.

comment
Gory Discretion Shot: When any huge explosions or impacts occur, the panel in which they would happen is replaced with stock photos of nuclear blasts (or in one case, of an asteroid impact). Also, when BM solves problems through stabbity means, all we see is blood splattered on the fourth wall. Both are hilarious when you actually see them.

Break the Cutie
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_4b316d47
comment
Break the Cutie: White Mage begins the comic as an idealist but eventually she becomes cynical enough to kill Chaos and give the Dark Warriors the credit. Onion Kid is a chipper young kid until multiple sets of his parents are murdered and he suffers so many other atrocities that eventually gets blasted back to the birth of time and space and grows up to become Sarda.

Power Copying
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_4c24a9ed
comment
Power Copying: Black Mage becomes a blue mage, gaining the ability to use the powers of those that attack him. Unfortunately, the only spells he actually learned this way were: 1) a spell to make the target puke his guts out (except the target is hard-wired to Black Mage); 2) a spell to let Sarda rewrite reality; and 3) a "spell" that allows him to kick people in the nuts.

Early-Installment Weirdness: The first sixty or so pages have characters regularly using game terms like "HP" in their speech and talking about stats on their character sheets. These quickly became something exclusive to Red Mage (and Vilbert to a lesser extent), dismissed by other characters as his mad ravings.

Frivolous Summoning: Subverted. After Drizz'l summons Lich and the two begin arguing, Lich protests that he wasn't summoned to argue semantics with an elf, and compares it to summoning a demon to get help with homework. The subversion comes in as Drizz'l actually summoned Lich to kill the other Dark Warriors and just got sidetracked.

Dual Wielding: Fighter and Drizz'l dual wield swords. Then this trope is taken to ludicrous extremes when Fighter begins quadruple-wielding through sword-chucks. Scary part is, it works. And Ranger can quad-wield bows, to fire twelve arrows at the same time! ...Not that it helps against an omnipotent wizard.

Black Mage and Thief are a omnicidal maniac and a kleptomaniac, respectively. Red Mage is a fairly amoral Munchkin, though he did redeem himself a bit when he saved White Mage's life at (what would probably have been) the cost of his own. Fighter, although not too bright, is the only one who consistently displays a moral compass.

The Caligula: King Steve, the psychotic, bloodthirsty, retarded ruler of Corneria. He was drilling for mana. You can't drill for mana. YOU CAN'T DRILL FOR MANA! Then it turns out, you actually can. Not to mention that his right hand man is a coffee stain named Rodney. The Dwarf King is also monstrous. In order to shorten the amount of paperwork the bodies of the giant monsters that Black Mage slays will bring, he has the coastal reserve murdered in front of their families and blames the event on the elves.

Mathematician's Answer: After Dragoon had knocked Black Mage unconscious by using him as a landing point, and Red Mage took advantage of the opportunity to jump up and down on Black Mage's unconscious body for a while. The Dark Warriors tell Sarda to get out of the way so they can go conquer the world: he says it's not going to happen. When they ask which part he meant, he replies, "Yes." On Red Mage's character sheet, under "Religion" he wrote "Okay".

Ley Line: Mentioned as running through the land. It is stated that Black Mage is a living Nexus. His mind/soul itself is the Nexus, such that his physical body acts as a Restraining Bolt. Hence when he dies and gets rid of his physical body, his powers increase (vis a vis RULING OVER HELL). He is not happy that the universe is trying its very hardest to keep him alive (probably so he doesn't end all creation.)

Achievements in Ignorance: Both Fighter and Black Belt can break the laws of physics simply through being too stupid to understand them. Fighter blocks the ground to prevent falling damage, since he can "block anything." There was also the time where he believed they had "slain" gravity and could now fly, and then actually flies away. Black Belt has No Sense of Direction to the point where he can literally warp space-time.

Eviler than Thou: The Dark Elves were once the rulers of Elfland until the Forest Elves overthrew them, stealing their national anthem in the process. Please note, said national anthem was "Elf Land, and Fuck You Too", which included the line "We're a race of total Bastards", and when Thief said that he didn't kill Drizz'l's father, merely let his allies do the dirty work then took credit whenever politically expedient, Drizz'l admits that's practically defending him under Elf law.

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_5beef860
comment
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: As seen in this early strip, spiders freak Fighter out. So you can just imagine what's going through his mind when this happens later on.

comment
Garland's attempt at giving a Boast (or rather reading out loud one prepared for him by Evil Princess Sara) failed miserably when Forest Imps stole the scroll with the text of the Boast... thus forcing Garland to improvise. That quote is also a Shout-Out to the original game, as that line was lifted directly from Garland's actual dialogue.

Man on Fire
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_5d86966a
comment
Man on Fire: Red Mage deliberately sets himself on fire to protect himself against freezing to death. Then when Black Mage torches him for landing on top of him, he deliberately stays on fire so he can hug people to death. Later, Black Mage sets him on fire once again just for the hell of it. Black Mage himself bursts into flames when he tries to wield a holy weapon.

Brown Note: Listening to any of the Light Warriors speak for any length of time can be hazardous to your health. Fighter regularly makes listeners too stupid to think (including the omnipotent Sarda), but Red Mage is almost as bad, talking with Thief for any amount of time will likely end with you having no money, and Black Mage once came out with an insult so awesome (or perhaps so lame) it killed a man.

Alternative Character Interpretation: In-Universe, Black Mage thinks Lex Luthor, is the hero of the story because ridding the world of Superman will restore humanity's agency.note Amusingly, this is how certain depictions of Lex see themselves as.

 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_60194b82
comment
Spanner in the Works: Many examples, but the biggest one is Sarda, to himself. Sometime in the present, he teleports White Mage into a "pocket dimension" because she was annoying him. It turns out this "pocket dimesion" is actually the beginning of the universe... and a younger version of himself arrives there a few seconds too late to mold the universe to his will. He also probably didn't expect Black Mage's evil to cause him to suffer a Phlebotinum Overload—or that said overload would allow Chaos to possess his body. Not even gaining godlike power can prevent Black Mage from ruining Sarda's life.

 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_6023a9bc
comment
Bloody Hilarious: One example is when White Mage attempts to revive a petrified, decapitated Black Belt. The results are Black Belt being revived but spewing High-Pressure Blood from where his head would be. She did not find it hilarious. Another example comes from Red Mage complaining about the wanton murder of an NPC who is also spewing blood from his headless neck. Twice.

Iron Butt-Monkey: Fighter and Black Mage—the former is repeatedly stabbed in the head with no ill effects (it made him smarter once), while Black Mage more or less always survives what's thrown at him (the Goblin Punch and Australia come to mind) and when he's killed, he gets brought back in fairly short order so as to continue suffering.

Heel–Face Turn
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_617f0563
comment
Heel–Face Turn: Drizz'l briefly joins the Light Warriors, although this is due more to frustration with the Dark Warriors' incompetence and being voted off than a change in morality. Then again, the Light Warriors are not exactly pillars of morality. In fact, when Black Mage was on their team, the Light Warriors were more evil than the Dark Warriors. Princess Sara is arguably an example of this, at one point taking over her own kidnapping and trying to help Garland dispose of the Light Warriors, who have come to rescue her. However, after Garland is defeated, she returns to her previous life and does not continue to pursue the evil path to any noticeable degree. Black Mage, despite being a "hero", almost pulls these a few times, but something always distracts him back to his own ways before long.

Poor Drizz'l gets this too: every time he thinks that he's finally pinned down the stupidest person in the room, someone, anyone opens their mouths, and he has to start all over. Of course, that's not to say that he doesn't have his Idiot Ball moments too, for comedy's sake.

Blocking Stops All Damage: Fighter decides he can block damage caused by falling in the same way he would block an attack... and proves it by surviving a fall at terminal velocity thanks to Achievements in Ignorance.

It's the Journey That Counts: White Mage asks Red Mage if he's annoyed with her for setting up the Dark Warriors as the saviours of the world instead of the Light Warriors. Red Mage says that he isn't, because having the adventure is more important than people knowing about it.

Polar Madness: Parodied in this issue. Following their capture by a Yeti in the arctic region, the Light Warriors end up getting trapped in its lair when Fighter accidentally causes an avalanche that blocks the cave entrance. Being trapped under the ice with his allies takes a toll on Black Mage's already-limited sanity, causing him to believe that he's actually the protagonist of a H. P. Lovecraft story - complete with an Apocalyptic Log. By the end of day 5, he perceives himself as hiding in a stone fortress from Lovecraftian monsters, when in reality, he's just sitting in a pile of ice while the rest of the team try to get his attention

Well he also wanted to find an old man that took their gold, but he makes it pretty clear prior to that that he's mostly going there to cause mayhem, and only asks someone about the gold after he kills them.

Gag Series
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_7808eb5f
comment
Gag Series: Far too continuity-heavy to count as a Gag-Per-Day Webcomic, but supremely zany and joke-driven none-the-less. Black Belt's death is probably the only plot element in the whole comic that's actually taken somewhat seriously...for about one page, before immediately being milked for Black Comedy afterwards. Any other serious moment in the strip exists just to build up to an Anti-Climax.

Sanity Ball
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_7960ab92
comment
Sanity Ball: Each of the Light Warriors has their own eccentricities, and so each one gets their turn with the ball. Black Mage is a sadistic psychopath, but also has the most common sense and so gets his turn whenever things get too crazy or illogical. Thief is amoral and pragmatic, so he reins in the others when they get too off task. Red Mage is divorced from reality but his delusions of being in a video game also mean he's the most devoted to actually accomplishing their quest of saving the world. And Fighter is a complete idiot, but still the most normal of the bunch and the only one who tries to act like a hero.

Cosmic Retcon: Sarda does this a few times to Black Mage, using his magic to alter Black Mage's protests into acceptance. In addition to that Sarda once did a Rewrite on a much bigger scale, supposedly by accident. When Black Mage tries to do the same thing, the end result is causing Sarda to add "you moron" onto what he was originally saying. Considering that Sarda personalizes his spells, the spell Black Mage cast was likely "Rewrite Reality According to Sarda's Wishes".

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_812ee32b
comment
Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: Although by the 1000 comic mark, Fighter can block anything in creation (including fire and the ground) and Thief can steal anything in creation, they still aren't anywhere near matching the raw destructive power that Black Mage has access to. Red Mage is a special case because although he can instantly mimic Black Mage's attacks when they are used on him (for about 30 seconds afterwards), his wizarding skills in general are not geared towards brute force but practicality (well, what he thinks of as practicality). The best example of this trope, though, is Sarda, who gets phenomenally more powerful the older he gets. Anyone even want to know what Black Mage and Red Mage are going to be capable of if they exist that long?

The Dark Warriors' Restaurant contains the heads of the werewolves encountered by the Light Warriors early on in the comics run, as well as one of Garland's motivational posters, Dr. Malpractice, the fake prince, Princess Sara, Left Hand Man Gary, Mrs Von Vampire and the Sulk. The menus in the restaurant have options like Twelve Dragon Nachos, Goblin Punch, Rat Tail Soup, Orbs of Water and foods named after the Four Fiends. Some law ninja are visible outside of Thief's palace. Akbar is still in business in whatever town we see Fighter and Black Mage in. He also appears to be selling Cloud's Buster Sword -and- Squall's gunblade. Also in the town are the legitimate businessman and his lackey, and a cultist. Fighter is equipped with his regular swords and some sword chucks named Stabby and Slashy. Finally, the entire series ends with a reference to the Armor of Invincibility.

Badass Boast
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_86b21114
comment
Badass Boast: Fighter delivered one in this strip. In a subversion, instead of boasting about his own achievements, he praised Black Mage... who wasn't happy about this. Fighter does make his own boast later on: Black Mage himself once wanted to deliver a Badass Boast that would double as a pick-up line... but what he came up with was this: In a later strip he delivered a Boast that was played straight... until it was interrupted by Thief 'stealth-suing' him. Then there was the time BM got fed up with Red Mage's crimes against nature, and told him what was waiting for him in hell. The scary part? Black Mage isn't bluffing. Garland's attempt at giving a Boast (or rather reading out loud one prepared for him by Evil Princess Sara) failed miserably when Forest Imps stole the scroll with the text of the Boast... thus forcing Garland to improvise. That quote is also a Shout-Out to the original game, as that line was lifted directly from Garland's actual dialogue. Far later, Sarda gives one: Chaos delivers one, too. The kicker? This is his response to Black Mage asking if he could give the Light Warriors a minute. Thief has one for the whole group here, even it turns out to be Tempting Fate.

Memory Wipe Exploitation: Garland knows that Bikke is planning to hold a meeting with the other Dark Warriors, as they are unhappy with Garland's leadership. Garland not only supports the idea - he even offers to cater them lunch. Just after serving lunch, Drizz'l approaches Garland and asks why Garland is being so supportive of Bikke's efforts to overthrow him. Garland says he has two reasons: the first is that he wanted a chance to try out a new taco recipe he found. The second is that he views the plot as a non-issue, because Bikke is grossly incompetent, Vilbert is a poser, and Drizz'l has been a broken shell of a Dark Elf ever since Fighter beat him and took his swords. When Drizz'l points out the possibility that Garland might be getting overconfident, Garland reveals his secret third reason: he put amnesia peppers in the tacos, meaning he can freely mock the attempts to depose him. In an hour, everyone will have forgotten the entire affair anyway.

Black-and-Gray Morality: The protagonists are three sadistic bloodthirsty killers (plus a Token Good Teammate who's just too stupid to notice his comrades are Ax-Crazy)... but the Big Bad manages to be worse! The only "hero"(ine) per se mostly falls under Good Is Impotent, but wins in the end because of a nine year-old Brick Joke.

Fantastic Fighting Style: A few sword based ones courtesy of Fighter. The Twelve Schools of Vargus-do Zodiac-Style Swordplay, which includes the Two Fisted Monkey Style and Ram Style described by Black Mage as “breaking your opponent’s equipment with your head before your opponent breaks your head with his equipment�. Another one is ‘The Glorious Chainsaw Method’ created by Red Mage for Fighter described as “Make your swords become like things unto chainsaws.� And then there’s Fighter’s use of Swordchucks.

Go Mad from the Revelation: Surprisingly invoked on Chaos of all people, when White Mage points out that a universe completely ruled by entropy would be as dull and boring as a world completely ruled by order. When the Light Warriors discover that Matoya and Bahamut are a couple, and the rat tail is for a virility potion. Let's just say that Black Mage tries to choke on his own vomit and leave it at that.

It is stated that Black Mage is a living Nexus. His mind/soul itself is the Nexus, such that his physical body acts as a Restraining Bolt. Hence when he dies and gets rid of his physical body, his powers increase (vis a vis RULING OVER HELL). He is not happy that the universe is trying its very hardest to keep him alive (probably so he doesn't end all creation.)

Token Good Teammate: Black Mage and Thief are a omnicidal maniac and a kleptomaniac, respectively. Red Mage is a fairly amoral Munchkin, though he did redeem himself a bit when he saved White Mage's life at (what would probably have been) the cost of his own. Fighter, although not too bright, is the only one who consistently displays a moral compass. According to Red Mage, he's really Lawful Amazing. It has hereby been proven that Fighter is Good. Or possibly that Red Mage is also evil, if it turns out that Neutral characters can wield the Light Warriors' weapons as well.

Major Injury Underreaction: Whenever the main cast is attacked by Black Mage they'll usually just shrug it off as if nothing even happened. For example, here Red Mage keeps talking despite having three knives lodged in his head. Black Mage also does this himself, his reaction to catching fire was a bored "I appear to have come aflame".

Arc Number: Four. Since the original Final Fantasy had 4 Light Warriors, Fiends, and orbs/crystals, the comic plays on this by adding 4 Dark Warriors, 4 "Other Warriors", 4 "true" Light Warriors—making a total of 4 warrior groups (although the pattern is broken during the big finish by introducing a fifth "all White Mages" team)—and 4 patron avatars. Also, the average strip is 4 rows.

Can't Catch Up: You know how the Fiends eventually come back more powerful than ever. Remember how it was really difficult to kill the Fiends the first time around? Remember how the other Light Warriors are constantly mocking Black Mage's cowardice, ineffectiveness and large amount of bodily harm? Maybe they shouldn't have done that.

Vomit Indiscretion Shot
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_94e4b975
comment
Vomit Indiscretion Shot: Black Mage is the king of this... usually projectile vomiting style. Thief's comment that he saw "darker wood in elf porn" made this happen spontaneously. His discovery of the true nature of Bahamut and Matoya's relationship and just what the Rat Tail was used for made him eject things he hadn't eaten yet.

Take a Third Option: When White Mage becomes evil, Red Mage asks her to heal Black Mage, and she's not sure what to do. She doesn't want to heal him as that's what a good person would do, but Black Mage is one of the most evil people in the universe so helping him would most certainly have negative consequences down the road. She decides to...

Faux Affably Evil Black Mage, on those occasions he's not consumed with omnicidal rage, is rather cordial.

Never My Fault: As Red Mage points out Sarda is just as responsible for his suffering as the Light Warriors are, since he wastes all his time getting petty, childish revenge on them when he could easily use his godlike powers to prevent their actions from ever happening. Not only that but he was the one who sent them on their quest to begin with, so he really has no one to blame but himself for his problems.

"Not So Different" Remark: White Mage ends up giving the Dark Warriors credit for the few good things the Light Warriors did out of petty spite, just like something the Light Warriors themselves would've done. In the epilogue she acknowledges that what she did was just as childish and mean-spirited as their behavior, and is trying to give them they credit they earned to make amends (though none of the Light Warriors particularly care).

Dumb Is Good: Fighter is dumb and he is also the only mortal teammate of the Light Warriors, simply because he is too dumb to think of anything outside of "swords-chuck yo", and not even in the homocidal way that Black Mage would. Or perhaps it's "Dumb isn't absurdly selfish, utterly disconnected from reality, or an Omnicidal Maniac." Dumb is... relatively good.

Thief isn't able to come up with an answer better than elves just prefer it that way.

Crippling Overspecialization: Most of Sarda's spells are designed to only work with a specific target in mind. Subverted, because this was used in order to prevent Blue Mages from using his spells against him. Played straight by Black Mage, who by way of Power Copying has learned "Spell that hurts Black Mage" and the "rewrite reality according to my (Sarda's) whim" spell.

Foreshadowing: Episode 434. Five years later... Thief's class change 523 chapters from the future. Remember the original task the Light Warriors were given? Well, 1119 chapters later...

Another, slightly more subtle, example...Red Mage sure is smart. Easily missed, but Fighter has no idea how right he is. Probably.

Stunned Silence: Black Mage has quite a few of these, usually accompanied by a Flat "What" when he's confronted with something so stupid or illogical that it renders him speechless. However, it has also happened when he has been simply horrified into stunned silence. There are few things so horrible that they can horrify Black Mage into silence. One of these things is Red Mage's chocobo breeding experiments. Black Mage even promises to devise a special hell just for what he's done.

Karma Houdini: The Light Warriors (especially Black Mage), after all the atrocities they commit, ultimately escape any kind of formal punishment. The upside is that White Mage keeps them from stealing the credit for saving the world... by making sure it goes to the Dark Warriors. Also, they got a lot of un-official punishment.

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Fighter is dumber than a bag of rocks, but he's also a practically unstoppable swordsman. And Bikke, useless though he may be at piracy and villainy, is the first person in the comic to actually hit Sarda with an attack. A useless attack, granted, but it impressed Sarda enough to spare him... for now.

Chekhov's Skill: Zig-zagged. The Light Warriors each pick up a skill when they class change. Thief uses his throw ability several times, and while Fighter only uses his block ability once, it's an important factor in his confrontation with Black Mage. Red Mage never effectively uses his Mimic ability, and Black Mage never picks up any useful spells.

Oh, Crap!: The look on Sarda's face just before undergoing Phlebotinum Overload is astoundingly evocative for an 8-bit sprite. Also the look on Black Mage's face when he discovers that "Muffin", Dragoon's "parrot", is actually a dragon. Extra points for Fighter and Thief completely ignoring what's right behind them. According to White Mage, here's what happened after Black Mage became the ruler of hell and gained limitless power: And Matoya, trying to use her crystal eye for lottery numbers, keeps getting "THE DESTROYER IS MANIFEST". Basically, the entire universe went Oh, Crap! when Black Mage took over hell.

Deadpan Snarker: When Black Mage isn't in a state of temporary insanity note read: state of Leave No Survivors bloodthirst while trying to take out everyone in a hundred-mile radius, he is incredibly snarky and sarcastic, particularly about the frequent flaws in logic and common sense that all the other "Light Warriors" seem oblivious to note read: too stupid to see, or just ignore. And the more he gets annoyed and frustrated, the more bloodthirsty and less clever he gets. So you know when Fighter makes a cleverer quip than Black Mage that there is going to be a lot of destroyed real estate in his vicinity.

Actually a Good Idea: The Light Warriors (minus Fighter) come up with a plan to defeat Chaos, after Fighter ruins their previous attempt by selling the legendary weapons Thief stole. They'll send Fighter over to literally talk him to death. Fighter instead has a friendly conversation with Chaos (and convinces him to transform into his One-Winged Angel form). Red Mage sadly laments that it was a great plan up until Fighter was involved.

Fate Worse than Death
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_b1346878
comment
Fate Worse than Death: Sarda's decided that killing the Light Warriors over and over again isn't as fun after dozens of times. So he's decided to just let them do whatever they want and only make life miserable for them when he's bored. This is subverted, however, because the Light Warriors actually prefer it to certain death. Also, Chaos' plan for the world is to lock everyone in the plane of eternal torment between the worlds. Which, due to Sarda and White Mage's time traveling, would create a paradox where the universe will never have came into being. Chaos apparently wants both to happen, somehow. Also, Berserker's fate and presumably Cleric and Rogue's unknown fates.

Epic Fail: Red Mage thinks that Black Mage critically failed hitting a large target because there is a 1-in-20 chance of critically screwing anything up. After being de-powered, Fighter tries to use his swords but ends up stabbing himself in the head with them.

comment
Too Dumb to Live: Red Mage is the last of the Red Magi because they had a tendency to hold elaborate sacred meetings when other mages were out reproducing, combined with a nasty track record of killing each other/themselves in order to more accurately calculate the effects of spells and weapons on people. Completely inverted with Fighter. He's too dumb to die.

Cycle of Revenge
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_b7042372
comment
Cycle of Revenge The Light Warriors go after Sarda for torturing them, who's after the Light Warriors because Black Mage ruined his childhood, and Black Mage likely commits his acts of evil because the universe hates him, which is frequently due to Sarda's influence, who tortures Black Mage because of the aforementioned ruined childhood, and so on. A very literal cycle, considering Sarda is "stuck" in a Stable Time Loop.

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_b77808f2
comment
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: Used as the last strip for the series. The strip picks up three years after the previous strip with White Mage tracking down the Light Warriors to give them some credit for all they did, Red Mage and Dragoon starting up a support group for sole survivors of mysterious sects, Thief becoming the king of Elfland through unknown means, and Black Mage and Fighter having disappeared, with no one knowing where they are (ironically we find out in the last scene that they're right where they were at the start of the comic). It's also a very loving recreation of Mark Waid and Alex Ross' Kingdom Come, right down to the interesting names for the dishes at the restaurant.

Perfectly Cromulent Word: Black Mage runs out of words to describe how much he hates Fighter, so Red Mage suggests "Hateriffic, Meganger, Anathemalice, Ragenomic, Omniloathe, Abhorrination".

Insane Troll Logic
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_c5f0119c
comment
Insane Troll Logic: Almost every plan that Red Mage makes up runs solely on this. He has once claimed that his plans were more likely to succeed, due to the fact that they were less logical, and thus, logic wouldn't screw them up. You can't unread that. Black Mage has gotten in on the action, too. Ranger's reasoning after 2 of the 4 members of his party have been erased from existence. Sarda's reasoning for sending the "Light Warriors" on their journey is shaky as hell. Not that Red Mage logic that it's not their fault they kill everyone they meet along the journey sound either. The comic is so filled with this that the Logical Fallacies quote page has a whole section dedicated to 8-Bit Theater.

From a Certain Point of View: Any claim that Brian Clevinger isn't a Lying Creator hinges on these. Just see the justifications below. In comic, a fairly common joke is for characters to have to grant a point for being technically true, such as Fighter having never seen an invisible castle due to them being very rare, or Black Mage not needing his heart to pump blood if he's dead.

comment
Lame Pun Reaction: Once Fighter says "He's in Ur base. Killing all Ur dudes", Thief and Red Mage prefer to go after a vicious Black Mage than risk hearing any further. Red Mage tries to make a pun out of "Astos" and "ass toes", which quickly weirds out everyone else. Black Mage then makes the "Yo ass is toast" pun, which is so bad that Astos immediately drops dead. In one guest strip Red Mage makes a pun about "getting grounded", the others rate it an average of -2.5 out of 10.

Killed Off for Real: Black Belt is dead. He is totally and completely dead, and never coming back. Anyone with the power to revive him doesn't want to, and his time-space warp duplicate is also dead.

Good Hurts Evil: The True Light Warriors' holy weapons can only be wielded by good people, so on the main team only Fighter can use them. This provides an idea of how evil each of the Light Warriors are relative to each other: Fighter isn't hurt at all, Red Mage is burnt a little but can still hold them, Thief immediately drops the knife he picks up and Black Mage bursts into flame.

Vitriolic Best Buds: Fighter is so consistently unaware of Black Mage's hate for him that it actually becomes a jaw-dropping plot point when Thief and Red Mage finally decide to kill Black Mage (for good reason), and Fighter stops them with: Black Mage and Thief are another good example. Though the two often claim to hate one another (and have each proven it more than once), they also respect each other's evil ways, and have on occasion shown some great synergy. To wit, just check pretty much the entirety of the Dwarfland arc.

Red Mage often leans very heavily on the Fourth Wall. Considering he's a Munchkin this isn't much of a surprise (his entire order lives on the basis of manipulating the Fourth Wall). When he does say something with a meta-context expect Black Mage (if he's currently not in possession of the Insanity Ball and trying to kill everything in sight) to remark on it with either suspicion or frustration.

Muffin wants to be the last dragon, but when pointed out there are a fair number of dragons still out there despite her claims, she grudgingly admits she wasn't quite as thorough as she'd like. Barry of the real Light Warriors is apparently a Red Wizard, meaning that Red Mage is either wrong or lying for roleplaying EXP. Knowing him, it's likely both simultaneously.

The Ditz: A lot of people lack brain capacity, like King Steve (tried to drill for mana). Bikke counts, too. Fighter is a subversion in that he's truly stupid but actually the most effective and competent of the Light Warriors.

After deciding to break the three Light Warriors who aren't Black Mage out of their icy prison, Drizz'l comes up with an idea that he knows he'll hate himself for after it works. He tells this joke: "How do you get 200 Canadians out of the pool? [Beat] Say 'Please get out of the pool.'" The ice shatters and Thief asks what he just did. "I... broke the ice..."

Light Is Not Good: For a group of "heroes" called "The Light Warriors", they are probably the world's greatest mortal perpetrators of atrocities. Sarda flat out tells them this. Then again, the Light Warriors only got the title by tricking King Steve with their "Orbs of Destiny", which were in fact light bulbs, and the Real Light Warriors were unable to find a job.

Flanderization
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_e5e6640b
comment
Flanderization: Black Mage used to be at least selective about what he stabbed and/or nuked. Gradually he got to the point at which he just kills everything at all times. Fighter got considerably dumber over the years, where he was once just kind and easy to trick in the early comics. However, given the number of times he's been stabbed in the head, this might technically count as Character Development. Red Mage's cross dressing and "animal husbandry" have become the butt of jokes centered around him.

Suspiciously Specific Denial: "No I am not undressing you with the power of my mind!"...and too many other examples to list them all. Shifty shopkeep Akbar makes it an art form. Fighter will often make completely innocent statements to this effect, often believing a far too specific lie that Black Mage has told him. See the below conversation for exhibit A, case in point. Black Mage also has a rather introspective one while he is the only one still stuck inside the web of a giant spider Red Mage gets into the act too:

Only a Flesh Wound
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_e663d3ef
comment
Only a Flesh Wound: Black Mage stabs his comrades, usually in the head, and they always survive. Subverted when Black Mage actually kills Ranger this way, and gloats over it as his previous victims survived. Of course, he is then resurrected by his friend Cleric. Black Mage regularly survives injuries such as losing his arms or being impaled by a spear, usually without proper healing. It's implied the Universe doesn't want him to die again since his fleshy body is what prevent him from destroying the world so it keeps him alive. Pretty much everyone in the main cast, at one time or another, goes through this.

Exact Words
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_e9e35e8f
comment
Exact Words: Sarda's spells run on this principle. The spell he casts to hurt Black Mage is a spell that hurts Black Mage, regardless of who is casting it, as Black Mage learned the hard way when he learned it via Blue Magic. Sarda in general runs on this. When he "fixes" Black Mage bleeding all over the floor he simply teleports him to anywhere in the universe; a wide and infinite range of possibilities that also includes right outside Sarda's cave. Dragoon describes all the "parrots" he's seen and Black Mage can't take the stupidity. He asks Thief to "kick someone for me" and so Thief kicks Black Mage. Red Mage tells Black Mage to wake up because he has a magazine filled with "huge knockers". They're door knockers. Drizz'l's dungeon guardian is a creature with an impossible biology, claws, poison and fire. It turns out to be a platypus, with claws for burrowing and little poison barbs on its legs. As for the fire, there's a bottle of vodka and a lighter taped to its belly.

You Will Be Spared: Upon being hit with the only successful (if ineffectual) attack on his person to date, Sarda says this to the perpetrator: "You're a quick thinker and spiteful. I can respect that. You won't be killed, Bikke."

Bizarro Apocalypse
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_f438ffb3
comment
Bizarro Apocalypse: Discussed in the strip's climax: Black Mage argues it might not actually be so bad for Chaos to win (because he might set the world on fire, but he might also turn it into cake, and there are more kinds of cake than there are fire so the odds are in cake's favour) and Chaos overhears and decides to start the "pastrylogical singularity".

He also probably didn't expect Black Mage's evil to cause him to suffer a Phlebotinum Overload—or that said overload would allow Chaos to possess his body. Not even gaining godlike power can prevent Black Mage from ruining Sarda's life.

comment
Insult Backfire: Clevinger, in keeping with his philosophy that the best joke is the one on the reader, wrote a comic that ended with the entire strip All Just a Dream, as a fake No Ending. Rather than the cavalcade of abuse he expected from pissed-off readers, he got fan mail complementing him on writing the perfect ending for his comic! Needless to say, he was peeved that his master plan was ruined by kindness. He seems to have tried it again here. And again, after the initial shock, the readers began to compliment him. In-universe example:

Love Makes You Dumb
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_f7883b17
comment
Love Makes You Dumb: Black Mage's intelligence is inversely proportional to one of two things: how close he is to White Mage, or how angry he is. When neither of those two factors are in play, he's the most intelligent of the group (except perhaps for Thief). Anger seems to obliterate all his ability to think rationally. This is really a problem because he has a Hair-Trigger Temper.

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_f8e010ce
comment
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: The Villain Protagonists, Thief and Black Mage in particular, are not only confused by Good, they are confused by any plan which does not include murder or theft. And apparently, they cannot comprehend why the Other Warriors don't hate each other, either. When Black Mage is told by Sarda that "there cannot be power without sacrifice", he takes it to mean he must make a Human Sacrifice... and does so with his "allies" (it didn't stick). Then Sarda tells him that Black Mage must be close to that which is sacrificed... so Black Mage slaughters them again (still didn't stick), and Sarda says that the sacrifice must mean something to Black Mage (who again misinterprets it as the sacrifice being the means to an end). Once Sarda stops time to spend seven hundred years trying to explain it to Black Mage, he finally says that Black Mage must care about what is being sacrificed... which completely stumps Black Mage.

Brick Joke
 8-Bit Theater (Webcomic) / int_fe0330fb
comment
Brick Joke: Thief explaining his class change.It later comes full circle. A much more obscure example: In a very early episode, Brian mentions that Alabama is hell. 350 strips later... Quite possibly one of the longest ever is set up as a throwaway gag in the first few panels of the 10th strip only to come back almost 9 years and 1,200 strips later. An even longer setup: Remember that Nintendo Power magazine Black Mage was reading during strip 7? Neither did anyone else (beware, there be spoilers ahead). Speaking of that setup, do you remember the "secret cabal of healers"? Or BB and WM's secret plan? Brian confirms that he was planning this all along. When he said he had the end of the comic in mind since the beginning, he meant it. Remember when Black Mage slaughtered a senile old wizard at a retirement home? 731 strips later it, apparently, turns out he's not the only one who uses Square Summoning Circles Remember King Steve's ridiculous plans to drill for mana that always ended in ruin? Check out the article in the bottom right of the newspaper article in this comic. Here's the longest setup in the entire comic: Armor of Invincibility. Mentioned in the very first strip, only to come back in the comic's very last panel. Another one from the epilogue: In the first panel, we see that messenger that King Steve ordered to be killed, still being pursued by the guard. In the same panel we can also see an old man in the blue robe. And Jeff. The epilogue is full of them. Don't eat the Rat Tail Soup, Dragoon. Not to mention the small joke here about harsh language. And how did they defeat Astos...? Fighter theorizes the existence of the dagger shark. And later, its natural mimic. This is a flash-forward to this.

Accidental Incantation: The Warriors of Light discover that a cult is intending to summon a monster, but interrupt them before they succeed. Black Mage realizes he could summon the monster to do his own bidding, but can't pronounce the monster's true name (which is required to summon it). Thief and Red Mage also join, but can't figure it out either. Then Fighter happens to sneeze while looking at it... which turns out to be just a harmless sneeze. Except then Fighter immediately makes a lucky guess as to the monster's name and ends up summoning it.
