Thank you. "I Kill Giants" is a terrific comic and I would recommend it to anyone.
Also, this might not be the correct place to ask, but how do I post normally without replying to someone? I can't seem to find how.
Now for content.
Esmeralda "Granny" Weatherwax from Discworld. A witch who walks just on the right side of the line between a good witch and a bad witch. very stern, very stubborn, and very respected. Some of her exploits include:
- Jumping a whole country forward in time so she wouldn't have to wait for a prophesy to be fulfilled.
-Winning a magic duel with a Voodoo witch using only psychology.
-Forcing her mind into a whole hive-full of bees and taking them over.
-Grabbing a sword by the blade to make a point and then just not bothering to bleed until after she got home.
-Having such force of will that when bitten by a vampire she dose not become one. Instead the Vampire become more like her.
Probably one of the best examples of her character was when she challenged death to a game of cards for the life of a child and wins. Afterward, the following exchange occurs:
I have to know. What would have happened if I had not...lost?'At the cards, you mean?'
Yes. What would you have done?Granny laid the baby down carefully on the straw, and smiled.
'Well,' she said, 'for a start... I'd have broken your bloody arm.'
