I had a feeling this Schlock was a decoy. Um Gwynn, you HAVE stuck a pin into the real Schlock! Don't you remember? Although he did try to pretend he was inflatable, but as I recall that did not work out so well for him.

Would magic work on other planets? It could be magic needs a planet to draw power from. Or more specifically, a life supporting planet. So magic in Earth, yes, but not on Mars. And would Gwynn, being powered by the Bug be any kind of exception?
Also, Chaz still works in space. If course, being from another dimension, he likely doesn't follow the same rules. In fact we know he explicitly breaks rules concerning immortality. Oasis and Kusari being exceptions because their bodies are just meat puppets, he hasn't had a chance to cut the real them yet. Oasis and Kusari may or may not be exceptions. We haven't actually gotten a clear test of that yet.

Well yea, KZK and all of the original Gods came from Earth.The Earth is soaked in their divine essence (which is a fancy way of saying they poop outside wherever they want). Some say you can feel their divine presence (picture of Torg cleaning up Bun Buns waste bin while holding his nose). They also built the Tower to Timeless space on Earth. Not KZK any more! http://archives.sluggy.com/book.php?chapter=65#2014-06-06

Well I was rather incredulous that Schlock would meet Gwynn in person after allowing almost nobody near him for so long, but I didn't know that his inflatable decoys were solid enough to lift glasses and bottles. So magic stops working "precipitously", eh? At what altitude, I wonder. The Kármán line? Spirantz wrote: What an earth-centric view! I guess we really are the center of the sluggyverse. Have you noticed how similar the words "geocentric" and "egocentric" are?

Is that guy for real? How many layers of self-delusion and circular logic is he on? That's the same logic from "Hunt Down The Freeman".
