Jason Williams brings us another Saturday installment of the Barwench Tales – and WOW!! Jason, this is by far the MOST IMPRESSIVE Barwench Tales, artistically, I have seen you do yet! It just gets better and better. BRAVO!! And don’t forget, you can see Jason filling in for me on art duties for right now on Legend of Bill (click the header icon!)




But… this is the gnome syndicate. Which is brilliant, but… not barwenchy. (In fact, on a scale of female psycho to masculine mankini, I’m… actually, I don’t know where I’d land, but still!)
Oh no! Someone has cast a spell causing your two guest artists to switch bodies!
….wait, this seems somehow oddly familiar….
Whoah! Someone had a makeover!
The funny thing is, they’re fighting over a guy that only one of them actually wants…
This is wrong on sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many levels…
But it does prove that Sarah is more than just nuts. She had to learn to swing a sword someplace…
I believe a wallpaper is in order to mark this point. A hot wallpaper. This particular pose and look on Sarah’s face would easily be at least half the hotness quotient required, possibly even 2/3′s.
Jason, the entire panel (and last week’s) are just amazing. Clearly you’re hitting your stride with the characters and style. But, Sarah’s pose today would about put Red Sonja to shame. Wow!
I’m with Dirk on this one, I’d pay money to watch that fight.
Smart dirk, real smart,
stay out the women’s faight that are holding the pointy and sharp things and you will live for about 20 mins after they remember you the one there fighting about.. and join forces
Well it’s nice to see that he has truly gotten over his trauma. Either that or completely forgotten what it was she did to him. Given the average assumption of his intelligence I don’t think that’s stretching it. Though, at least he’s smart enough to stay behind the table, not that either of those two couldn’t cleave it directly in two by accident.
To hell with it: let’s have Bill and Sarah trade jobs!
Of course nobody seems surprised that this is where we’d end up.
Oh Dirk… Yeah the battle is SO HOT… As long as they’re not going after you… which probably soon at least one of them are gonna do…
That’s actually quite smart of Dirk, for a man who wears the skull of a dead animal on his head and is NOT a druid.
just like that classic cat fight in DESTRY RETURNS.
tickets are being sold now for front stage sitting, folks. the kicking, the screaming, the tearing clothes. its all here, folks. DON’T MISS THE EVENT OF YEAR!!!
love them women fights when the pms kicks in. this is going to a fight with only one survivor.

Great stuff, Jayson.
drat and double drate. there werent never a movie called DESTRY RETURNS ….. what i was thinking of was DESTRY RIDES AGAIN
the swell cat fight was between Una Merkel and Marlene Dietrich
sorry, i mis-spoke
this battle is epic on so many levels! i second the wallpaper idea. now i have bill and the orcs, but i forsee dueling wallpapers in my future.
For some reason I’m reminded of an episode of Stargate Atlantis where Teol’c shows up for a visit, Ronin doesn’t like him much and they spend an hour at what could only be charitably called “sparring.” Col. Sheppard and maybe 30 of the staff end up watching the fight. When the base commander shows up (Col. Carter, at that point in the series) and stops it, it turns out Sheppard and bunch were all betting as there is a frantic exchange of multiple green pieces of paper…
Speaking of SGA, it was the only series that was like the original star trek to ever come along, with everything from exploration to combat, even down to multiple races, nations and even alien characters, both men and women, working together in each’s specialties. Only Roddenberry had done that previously with the first star trek. PC treks and Yuppy Trek didn’t quite capture the same ideas or ideals.
Matter of opinion on Star Trek. Overall I think the later incarnations captured much of those ideas and ideals much better – once they hit their strides, that is. One thing that helped there is better budgets for costuming.
But again – that’s my opinion and de gustibus non est disputandum…
What a battle! How will it end? Can’t imagine Sarah losing..Awesome graphics Jason..
The still-unknown warrior is looking pretty tired, true – it might’ve helped if she asked what was going on first and swung her blade second.
That expression on Sarah’s face is wonderful!
Sylvester the cat’s hysterics when confronted by a Jeckyll Tweety Bird would be appropriate right now “Help! She’s a Killer! Save me! AH! AH! AH! Save me! HEEEEEELLLLPPPP!”
Yes. That, or Marvin the Martian’s expression when confronted with a Neanderthal Bugs Bunny of his own making. (I know, completely different circumstances, but for some reason that comes to mind!)
If one could get her to go on the straight and narrow, Sarah would be the perfect cop: all she’d have to do is LOOK at a bank robber or rioter or other criminal and they’d give it up, right there.
Excellent point.
And why did we waste her on Terragard? Why not just drop her over Tripoli? One psycho takes down another.
Fight for me please ladies!!!!
As noted elsewhere, one man’s dream is most women’s nightmare.
