Very awesome shot! There, indeed, was no need for text!
Now, did anyone else notice that the one reindeer has the metal bands on the lower portion of their antlers and the one next to him and looking like “Really, dude?” Made me smirk ^_^
I imagine your Rudolph is a bit more of the kind that goes, “No, f*** you guys. You treated me like s*** all my life, I’m not going to help you just because you asked nicely one goddamn time.”
Since 2d6 = 7 (3.5 step); 3d4 & 5d2 = 7.5 (2.5/1.5 step); 2d8 = 9 (4.5 step); 4d4 = 10, All platonic solid dice will have a X.5 step iteration, therefore cannot reach 8, so why not these alternatives:
2d6+1; 4d4-2; (or if you don’t mind “irregular” dice) 4d3 (2.0 step), 2d7 (4.0 step)
Steps are the Average total value per die used.
Following that train of thought, cause i agree the back left one has that “oops look”, the gray/grey-ish colored one has the look on his face like he let one rip mid air and is waiting for Brett to get a mouthful of it.
I would like to second the suggestion that this be made into a wallpaper. This would be a marvelous desktop to use at Christmastime in 1920×1080 resolution. 🙂 Just beautiful.
HOVER-TEXT: If Christmas is a thing you do, I hope you had a good one in 2014 and that this reminds you of good memories.
This strip is pure joy. I love it.
I smell wallpaper/poster material. 😀
Needs a extra wide version with the rest of the rain deer.
Nice!!

I don’t get the significance of the metal bands or their location on said antlers. O.o
Now I want to know what Brett names his 8(4d4) reindeer.
They’re the classics we all know and love.
Jury is out on Rudolph, though.
I imagine your Rudolph is a bit more of the kind that goes, “No, f*** you guys. You treated me like s*** all my life, I’m not going to help you just because you asked nicely one goddamn time.”
4d4 averages to 10
I know.
There wasn’t anything that really averaged to 8. 3d4 and 2d6 is 7, and 2d8 is 9.
Since 2d6 = 7 (3.5 step); 3d4 & 5d2 = 7.5 (2.5/1.5 step); 2d8 = 9 (4.5 step); 4d4 = 10, All platonic solid dice will have a X.5 step iteration, therefore cannot reach 8, so why not these alternatives:

Santa in full glory! Love it!
I feel like one of the reindeer has an, “Oops, I forgot to go to the bathroom before we left.” face on.
Not that it matters much, but I imagine during takeoff Brett doesn’t like crap flying into his face.

Is the greyish one Comet or Cupid?
Uh, assuming that front-to-back, they’re in the usual order.
Awesome drawing! Brett Clause kicks ass.
Love the strip. This whole arc has been great as well.
“Siri, play ‘Santa Claus Is Coming To Town’ by Bruce Springsteen.”
I’m kinda suprised there’s not mention about Bags of Holding.
Is Dasher super smug when Santa says dash away?
Those are some expressive reindeer. 🙂

at least one of those reindeer looks to be complaining about something.
