Rich Morris' Comics - YAFGC and The ComixBlog

With many, many more teeth.

Considering the last times we saw it we probably have little to worry about.

Remember that they are evil... or at least sorta bad.

But yeah, she must see things that way... she's just a kid who never played D&D (or anything of the like): she lives in it.

Oh come on... Clover's smile after her wedding was much more malicious, Jone is pure happy. Piranha happy but happy.

It might be predictable, but I personally would have loved to see Jone and Glon as a couple. As it is right now though, anything between them would be kind of icky considering the fact that Glon is married to her mom and I definitely don't want to see her killed off. I think it would be nice to see some romance again in the strip. Especially more about Lucas, Cadugan and the curse! Squee!!!

Show of hands! Who wants to eat her?

Jone is just the cutest little thing to ever wield a khopesh, in my not so humble opinion.

Oh, and on the pointy teeth issue, every orc can smile like that. We've seen Glon do it, and there's at least one panel with Maula doing so as well.

I think it will be some time before we get any romance with Jone. She's naught but, say, 12 or so I'd guess. Of course, by the time she's ready, she'll likely be married off to someone to cement an alliance. She is, after all, the step-daughter of the crown prince.

Since Hogga went back home to her people, I'd think she's make a lovely Queen Jone, reigning alongside King Runtherd.

Uhmmm... i really like Jone and her Burtonesque cuteness, but given that Runtherd's tastes included Sidonie, i doubt he would find our little ghoul appealing. I mean, people have nightmares about creatures like Jone hiding under their bed, why would they want them on them?

Ah, that's just because he's young. His pursuit of Sidonie was based entirely on her looks, IIRC. Age and time in the throne will mature him.

Heck, it even took Eric III a while to see what a good thing he had right under his nose (almost literally) in Clover. Give Runtherd some time and he'll come around.

The difference is that Clover was never considered unattractive, she was just in the Friend Zone. Very different things.

a) don't let Jone hear you say that. She'll bite your arm off!
b) marriages are made for reasons of politics, you know.

I reserve the right to continue to hope that, by, oh, comic #4200, we're seeing Jone get married to the King.

Yes, and marrying the king to a member of the mountain royalty will not be a good move. It would put every noble orc in position to claim the human throne, and this time they won;t have Glon and Mrs. B to come save the day. Or did you forget how Runt became king to begin with?

Considering she slaughtered a bunch of people odds are if she gets that close to the king she'll be killed. I don't forsee happiness and rainbows in her future.

Didn't Runt have a bit of a crush on Lady Hogga back in the day?

...I think he just likes taller women. Perhaps if Jone overcomes her childhood malnutrition and grows into a big strapping orcish warrior she'll be in a position to turn his head...

(I'm only half joking here. Two-thirds joking at most.)

I remember Hogga saving his bacon under the mountain. I don't recall the attraction, just his desire to have her stay in the castle as an advisor to him - I thought out of appreciation for that bravery on her part.

But hey, whatever it takes to bolster my own hair brained schemes!

To be honest, Jone is too childish for me to see her with anyone right now -i think the romance will be confined to her mother's story.
Apart from that, i agree with timemonkey that no-one would see such a move as a politically good one. The orcs are not even made for treaties and agreements, and Karak's reign did not convince anyone otherwise.

I honestly thought she was older than twelve. I think she and Glon would have been a really cute couple. I can't really picture her with anyone else since there are only a few characters around her age. I don't think Rich would be cruel enough to force both her and Glon into arranged marriages. This is fantasy! There should be some happily ever after darn it!
