Spider-Corn
Common wisdom and certain rangers will tell you that mines are no place for a pony. Horses are large creatures after all, and it can be tough to fit through those narrow passages. Never mind the squeezing rules, the narrow frame feat, the 5 gp block and tackle, the hosteling magic armor, or the fact that certain classes are predicated on the idea of dungeon delving with a horse bro. Despite all this there’s still a prejudice against equine companions, and a wholly unfounded sense that they are not allowed in subterranean settings.
“Just play a halfling,” they say. “Ride a dog,” they say. Well you know what? As cool as a lowrider dire dachshund might be, I sometimes want to put on my big boy pants and charge like a half-orc.
Don’t get me started on those mammoth riders though. Taking Dumbo indoors is just silly.






First comment
And so it begins….
Is that necklace significant? I doubt it. Maybe you should make a callback to it at some point, and possibly ask if anyone recognises said callback. Promise I won’t point it out. 🙂
Yo… I’m looking at your comment on the back-end, so I thought you were talking about the necklace in today’s comic at first:
https://www.handbookofheroes.com/archives/comic/unmasked-part-4-4
We wind up flirting with continuity throughout the Handbook, but I don’t believe that particular necklace has ever made a reappearance. Still, you comment has been copy-pasted into the “script ideas” file. Anything is possible. 🙂
Would you look at that? It seems as though they really listened. 500+ comics later, and the necklace came back.
I can neither confirm nor deny that this comic possesses secret continuity.
Since I’ve never made any other suggestions to this comic, I’m going to assume that any other suggestions I make will be eventually added (after a couple of months). In order to prevent the disruption of the comic, I will also refrain from abusing this power.
(It’s definitely not to avoid my assumption being disproved)
This comment gives you a feeling of power. POWER!

Play 3.0 where steeds are 5 foot wide amd 10 foot long.
I’m regluing miniatures as we speak.
It seems that everything that is not real in the world is here :>
I think “fantasy” is a bit more succinct, but sure. 😀
Logic is for chumps, haha! Greetings from your “Familiar” Patreon subscriber!!
Hail and well met! Familiar, is it? Be ye raven, rat, or toad?
It appears that they paid close attention. The jewelry returned 500+ comics later.
What nonsense! This is a joke-a-day style comic with no traceable continuity! Never mind Wizard’s gender swap or Druid getting into a relationship with Arcane Archer or the ongoing vampire threat from the drowned city of Aqua Vitae. This is purely a comic about a fighter, cleric, wizard, and thief doing trope things. >_>

Thank you! Someone finally understands what we were going for. 😛
