"Those Good Old Warhammer Days" first appeared on September 13th. According to Orcsama, the series creator, it began as an experiment with Flash MX. The original characters were quite rough and the dialog a bit heavy, but from these crude origins, a simple, yet funny, WAR comic has emerged.

In the eight "Days" published so far, Orcsama hits some of the high and low notes of the WAR experience, such as the inevitable comparisons to WoW, commentary on the "Grind", or even the world of Scenarios. The characters of "Days" manage to emote with clean and simple line work while Orcsama animates them to lovingly skewer WAR. Even when critical, you can sense how much Orcsama enjoys WAR and he always manages to find humor in its flaws.

Now if someone could just tell me exactly what it means to be a "pun comic" . . .

Read it for yourself! (http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=88093)
