If he wouldst fight as valiantly as he doth snore…

Last issue we learned Hogun’s origin, and met his arch-nemesis, Mogul of the Mystic Mountain. Hogun and his friends now seek the legendary Mountain.

The first step on their quest is to get information from Wazir the prophet. They will first have to get past the one-eyed guardian, Ogur.

Volstagg guarded the horses while the others battled, but his guard duty mostly consisted of sleeping.

Here’s the letters page.

And if you need a t-shirt or other swag…
