Wham! Episode/Web Comics/The Order of the Stick


 * Order of the Stick: Sure, it's a comedy, but don't try to tell me your jaw wasn't at the floor at some point between the Spot the Imposter arc and the Time Skip.
 * Especially since said timeskip happened in multiple chunks without the main character or the readers realizing it.
 * The reveal of Roy's little brother.
 * Nope, known since strip 113 and confirmed by the prequel books.
 * Sure, but not everyone has the books, and it would have been easy enough to assume that it was Julia in 113.
 * The strip where Xykon kills Roy. For real.
 * In fact the entire siege of Azure City can be a Wham arc
 * V running away from the party, being owned by a dragon who turns out to be the mother of the one the party killed 400 strips ago, and then have the same dragon threaten to kill not V, but his/her children. We had no idea V had children!
 * One spell: Familicide, and one statement: the three evil-brokers lied. V's actions aren't in any way influenced by the soul splice.
 * Also, the ending to that scenario. Xykon curbstomps spliced V and O-Chul, only for them to get saved accidentally by, of all things,  in a pseudo-Heel Face Turn.
 * In the conclusion to the fourth story arc, Blackwing, Vaarsuvius' familiar reveals what he saw within the rift: a planet. Not the Snarl, which is supposed to be the overarching manifestation of chaos doomed to unmake the world, (although it's not incredible to discount it still being omnipresent in a way we've yet to understand) but a lone planet.
 * Belkar's return to full health. You'll be left just as stunned as Jenny, the Bard.
 * Knocking off Elan's rose tinted glasses takes a big punch, but his dad delivers.
 * Shortly after,  returns after having been Deus Ex'd out of the plot for something like 650-700 strips. And then Belkar's newest Linear Guild counterpart shows up and kicks the dog MASSIVELY.
 * "Disintegrate. Gust of Wind. Now can we please get back to saving the world?"
 * Strips 825 to 827. You'll be just as shocked as the Resistance was.
 * Strip 830 just elevated Redcloak to Magnificent Bastard levels of awesome.
 * Strip 842. Oh hey, V. Guess what just became plot-related?
