Is the gallery of monsters that it mentions the illustrations from all the Dungeon magazines?

Yes. It's missing only a handful from the last couple issues of the magazine. There are dozens of them in there.

Sweeeeet.

Aww, but missing the newest ones? Does that mean it won't have the kilmoulis?

I believe the kilmoulis is in there, IIRC.

I hate to say it, but there's a misprinted panel in the print edition, and it turns up even in the downloadable sample pages above. It's the center-left panel at the start of episode #17 (originally appeared in DUNGEON magazine #116), where Downer is lying on the ground unconscious.

Something must've gone wrong with the different layers prior to printing. The speech bubbles are still in the correct place, but the picture itself was flipped around left to right and up/down, so now the speech bubble with the comment by Loops in the upper left hand corner is covering Downer's head, while Downer's smaller speech bubble which used to be near his head is now near his knees. Bizarrely, the little arrow pointing from the speech bubble towards Downer has flipped, too, and it now pointing right instead of left, so that it is at least pointing towards Downer, not away from him. A printer mishap by someone who didn't know the original, perhaps?

Other than this, my print edition is flawless. Nice colours, sharp print. I hope that, should sales figures allow for a second printing, the error will be corrected then.

What happened to Downer Volume 2? Is it out of print, or did it not see print?

It's on indefinite hold until we can find a way to publish it affordably.

Ok, people, you could make me very happy by contributing to this!

You'll notice that Vol 1 is now almost 50% off. That's a steal. Buy one if you don't own one already and let's get the ball rolling on Vol 2! I have literally been waiting years for this :(

EDIT

Is volume #2 officially scrapped now? I noticed it was pushed back a few times, but can't seem to see it listed anywhere now...

So it would seem. I asked about it on the chat not long ago and was told it was essentially dead in the water. Alas!

That sucks. I'd love to see even a PDF collection, just to have them all in one place...

Any chance there could be a pdf put up for sale w/ a print option via Lulu? That way Paizo wouldn't have to pay out a lot for a printing of something they fear won't sell enough copies to recoup their initial investment.

Or is the Lulu option not an agreeable one for Paizo's business plans (I of course have no idea what Lulu charges to use their services)?

Asking out of sheer desperation at this point, though it's probably a lost cause.

This is sad. I completely dug Downer.

Dito. I bought Volume One, and still had a shred of hope we'd eventually get to see Volume Two, maybe even with some nice extras and with a reprint of Downer's character sheet and life story that had appeared in DUNGEON magazine. That should be included at the very least.

But if I can't get a print edition of the comic, I'd gladly take a PDF collection, at least then I can reread the comic without having to dig for the various pages scattered through my collection of both printed issues and PDF-versions of DUNGEON magazine issues. *sigh*

Mee too! I bought Vol. 1, and since I don't have all the issues of Dungeon with Downer in them, I can't read the whole story any other way. So I'm rooting for a PDF, at least.

I want to own Volume 2. I want to have it in my own two hands. I am willing to pay real money for this privilege.

Dude, you don't even know (well, the avatar I'm using might give it away). I've offered mad cash to get my hands on a Volume 2 by any means necessary.

Okay guys, all we have to do is gather in Seattle and hash out a plan to kidnap Kyle, then all the Downer we want will be ours! Ours I say!

Edit: Okay, upon reflection (and on the advice of my attorney) I think one of us needs to strike it rich, then we can commission all the Downer we want. (...and introduce a grig busker.)

*Laughs and cries at the same time*

I am heartbroken that there will not be a volume 2 ... but LOVE the responses gang.

SIGN ME UP to be in that A-Team van for "Actions yet to be disclosed ..."

I finally got around and bought the Wandering Monster compilation, so I could read the story from the beginning (I already had all the Dungeon issues that featured the "Fool's Errand" story arc), and read through it all (WM & FE) this afternoon. However, while it cleared a lot of things, I'm quite a bit confused with the series' conclusion. I realize that it might be in part due to the cancellation of Dungeon, which may have prompted Kyle Hunter to end things quicker, but I still don't get a few things:

Have any of these points been explained by Kyle Hunter, or anyone else related to the comic strip, previously?

Downer 2! Downer 2!

Sigh.
