All I heard was "Probably more DOTA 2 comics" and I'm totally okay with that :p

Looks like the short length of chain from Bioshock's protagonist. But in any case, it's not the triforce. And I'm not 100% sure on this, but isn't the tattoo supposed to be on her other wrist? But she's got two right hands, so maybe in a way it's correct in its incorrectness.
Taking a look in the archives ( http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/comics/critical-miss/10282-Conflict-of-Interest ) she does have a similar tattoo on her right wrist and the Triforce on her left.

I was thinking she had both but I wasn't willing to go back far enough in the archives to find evidence. Hurrah communal effort!

So yeah, her triforce tatto is missing. Possibly because she doesn't actually have a left wrist in this comic.

Hey, I have an idea: let's see who can find the most errors in the last panel! The winner will get an e-sandwich (with or without e-cheese, depending on preference). :p
What do you mean? There aren't any errors at all in the last panel. It's absolutely perfect. *goes back to playing DOTA*

...except for the pink shirt (Erin's shirt is blue),
missing leg,
three right hands,
six fingers on the leftmost hand,
tightfisted grip on the pencil (making it impossible to write legibly),
missing left pupil,
lizard on her shoulder (supposed to be a hamster),
missing ribbon and barettes in her hair,
pencil is actually a toothpick,
empty dialogue bubble,
missing paper in the notepad,
missing tatoos,
nose is too small,
eyebrows and expression not matching with posture,
overshadowed neckline relative to the head and shirt,
left-handedness (erin has always been right-handed),
misplaced bosom shadow,
poor directional focus (erin is pointing down, looking up, and facing toward the foreground),
odd perspective from the mountains (impossible to tell which is supposed to be closer, though they are clearly not on the same plane),
"bleeding" mountain intersecting with a building without additional perspective,
visible starry sky during a sunny afternoon,
out-of-focus background building indicating overlay problems or half-assed 3D,
nothing at all to do with either Bill Watterson or Robert Crumb
... and there is a shrub that looks like a fish, but I'm willing to assume that's an artistic design choice.

Nice character portrayal. He looks like he'd go running for the hills if you cast Lvl 20 Turn Undead on him.

Jesus America, lrn2english?

My English gland.
As a non-native English speaker, can you explain to me where's the mistake? I honestly can't see it.

Edit: never mind, I'm blind.

In traditional English (as spoken by the dear old Queen (gawd bless her)) written would be the word you'd use.

Fairly sure that's the Chain tattoo from wassisface in Bioshock.

I don't see anything wrong with the last panel. That's obviously not a Photoshop Disaster - it just looks like that when you use fill flashes.

I?ve been trying to get into dota 2 for a while, I already play league of legends but both games have thing in them I really like so I want to play them both.

Also I?m shocked that it took me so long to notice any error beside the empty dialogue balloon, especially the three hands.

I sympathize. Though my recent addiction is with League, not DOTA.

I swear I'll stop when I finally manage to play Akali and Irelia competently, though. ... And purchase Draven. ... And maybe Sona too. ... And Kat. (GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.)

Dota is indeed very, very addicting. Also, I'd love to see more DOTA2-related comic strips. So I'll be looking forward to those.

Also, to anyone here playing dota2: there's a dota2 fangroup on the Escapist. Join up!
I also heard that on Steam... Dota 2 is free to play? Is this true?
Yes-sir, that's the case! It's a great F2P model, compared to most of the stuff that's out there. And i warn ye, DOTA2 is dangerously addictive. Tho it might be a bit difficult to get into (I myself had a 3-month pause between my first and second game of Dota 2, since the first match was not very entaertaining). But luckily, Valve has made a nice tutorial that explains all the stuff. Too bad i didn't spot the tutorial when i started playing. Or perhaps it wasn't out then. Not sure.
