For more of our comics, check out our linktree: linktr.ee/nichrome.m...
#deathandaxes #goblins #comics #pumpkinspice

"Title: Sugar and Spice Panel 1: A pair of goblins, Tren and Beetle have created a coffee stand and are selling Pumpking ""Spice"" Elixirs. A handful of goblins look at the stand confused. No one seems to want to buy them. The goblin doctor, Snotface, looks skeptically at the sign and asks...""What 'spice', exactly?""
Tren and Beetle exchange glances. Panel 2: Tren whispers something unintelligble to Snotface. Panel 3: Snotface gags and shouts ""pickled spiderbear?!?!"", and all of the other goblins appear to have heard and stare at her in shock. Panel 4: The line to the stand triples as goblins clamor over the drink, while Dr. Snotface vomits in the bushes."

Title: Heroes Panel 1: A pair of humans, a knight and a translator, approach a goblin village. The knight says, 'ugh, what barbaric little creatures! We must rid the world of this evil scourge!' Panel 2: In the yard of a house at the edge of the village, two goblins, Beetle and Tren stand discussing something in goblinish, which appears as gibberish in the text bubbles. Beetle holds a pitchfork, while Tren holds a dented spade. A hole of some kind has been dug in the ground. Panel 3: The two humans hide behind a bush and watch the goblins talking. The knight says, 'I see they've dug a grave! What foul deeds are they celebrating?' Panel 4: Beetle and Tren stand in the garden. A note indicates the panel has been translated from goblinish. Tren indicates the hole and says, 'i want to plant azaleas here this year. what do you think?' Beetle thinks, and answers, 'wat abowt cactus, insted?'

Title: Villains Panel 1: A pair of humans, a knight and a translator, hide behind a bush watching two goblins, Beetle and Tren, discussing something in Tren's yard. Beetle holds pitchfork and Tren holds a dented shovel. Both stand next to an open hole in the ground. The translator says, 'forgive me sir, but they're only talking about gardening.' The knight looks taken aback and says, 'Gardening! That's absurd. Everyone knows goblins are uncivilized monsters!' Panel 2: The camera moves in closer on the humans. The translator says, 'Nonetheless sir, it seems wrong to attack these peaceful goblins in their own village when they've done noth--' The knight interrupts, 'Peaceful?! They're goblins!' Panel 3: The camera moves out again. Beetle now stands behind the knight. She says, 'scuse me!' and taps him on the shoulder. The knight doesn't even look at her, holding up a finger for her to wait, and says, 'Can't you see we're talki--' Panel 4: Splorch! Beetle grins as she stabs knight from be

Title: Heroes and Villains Panel 1: Two goblins, Beetle and Tren stand in Tren's backyard alongside a human translator. Tren and the translator look down at the body of a human knight, who has been stabbed in the face with a pitchfork. Beetle looks pleased as she prepares to drag the human's body off. Tren looks surprised, and the translator looks queasy. Panel 2: The camera moves closer to the translator and Tren. The translator says awkwardly, 'Well, um...I think your choice of azaleas will look just lovely right here." Tren looks up at the translator and says, 'thank you, i think so too.' Just offscreen some sort of clanking and clanging is going on. Panel 3: The camera moves back out to reveal Beetle has stripped all of the knight's armor and clothes off into a pile. She says, 'he's ready!' The translator looks horrified and says, 'Oh. Oh dear, wh-what are you doing?' Tren says 'dead bodies make great fertilizer' and points at the hole in the ground. Panel 4: The translator looks

#deathandaxes #reruns #goblins #comic

Title: Foreign Panel 1: In the goblin palace, the particularly large goblin Queen Zurga sits on her throne. Her advisor, Meatbucket, approaches her and says, 'your majesty, a band of humans have approached the village, requesting a meeting.' Queen Zurga says dismissively, 'kill 'em.' Panel 2: Queen Zurga, the goblin queen, and King Ochs, the orc king are locked in an intense arm wrestling match. The Queen is large for a goblin, but still smaller than the orc. Around them, goblins and orcs watch the arm wrestling match eagerly. Panel 3: Queen Zurga wins the arm wrestling match and the goblins cheer. The orcs look disappointed at their leader who looks embarrassed. Panel 4: King Ochs removes the bone crown from his head and attempts to place it around Queen Zurga's head, but it is much too large and fits her like a necklace. In the background King Och's advisor whispers to Meatbucket, the Queen's advisor, 'she not orc queen now, right?' Meatbucket whispers back, 'unclear'.

Title: Domestic Panel 1: In the receiving chamber of the goblin queen's palace, Queen Zurga sits on her throne looking bored. Beside th queen, her advisor, Meatbucket says, 'explain your dispute.' In front of them are two other goblins, Leek and Bettle. Leek points at Beetle. Stitches can be seen on his arms where his arms were reattached. He says, 'beetle stole my ax!'. Beetle crosses her arms and says 'no i didnt!' Panel 2: Queen Zurga says, 'u didnt?'. Beetle says, 'furst, meetbuckit and i cut off leeks arm. then i kickt meetbuckits ass. THEN i took the ax.' Panel 3: Queen Zurga looks sideways at Meatbucket. 'is that tru?' Meatbucket looks embarrassed, but says, 'its tru' Panel 4: Queen Zurga shrugs and says, 'seems fair 2 me.' Leek hangs his head and Beetle celebrates.

Her advisor, Meatbucket, approaches her and says, 'your majesty, a band of humans have approached the village, requesting a meeting.' Queen Zurga says dismissively, 'kill 'em.' Panel 2: Later, Queen Zurga again sits on her throne when Meatbucket approaches her. He says, 'your majesty, a group of elves have been spotted planting a garden nearby.' Again Queen Zurga says, 'kill 'em.' Panel 3: On yet another day, Queen Zurga sits on her throne when Meatbucket approaches again to say, 'your majesty, some gnomes got lost and came here for directions. I presume you would like me to k--' Queen Zurga interupts and says, 'keep 'em.' Meatbucket says, 'your majesty?' Panel 4: The next day, Queen Zurga sits on her throne. Beside her on the floor stands a terrified looking gnome with a collar, who she pets on the head fondly. She says to a pair of visiting goblin children, 'and th

Snotface says 'I'm sorry thats just what the apothecary charges.' The patient crosses their arms and says 'sownds like a scam 2 me.'
