The figure on his DM screen keeps changing. I recognise a dragon, a beholder, and a gelatinous cube, but I’m not sure what the one in the second panel is. Could be a goblin, could even just be a fighter.
I suppose it could even be his sister, but with Jason, that’s true of the other three images as well.
I had thought Marcus’ answer to the volume was incorrect, until I realized that the units changed from feet to meters. He cast that math wizard spell at a higher level.
Anyone else check his calculation? As we’ve learned to expect from Amend, it’s right on. (And I suspect he didn’t make three false starts before reaching the right answer, like I did.)

This is the 138th strip since the last one in the most recent book – time for somebody to think up of potential book titles

Too bad that with Sundays only for FoxTrot, Amend missed all the tributes yesterday to Charles Schulz’s 100th birthday.
