WoW ogre gets 15 minutes of fame


The sullen ogre in Shattrath City had his fifteen minutes of fame in Scott Kurtz' popular webcomic PvP Online. Well, more like five minutes. In the new storyline, an ogre by the name of Grok Shrok comes to harass Skull the troll and his trouble-making cousin Shecky. Kurtz, who recently blogged about playing World of Warcraft again after the writer's strike in Hollywood ended all his favorite TV shows prematurely, inadvertently revealed his inspiration for Shrok when he wrote Grok's name in one panel.

The comic has since been corrected, but it's nice to know that even lumpy, zoloft-deprived ogres can have their time in the spotlight. Have you guys seen any WoW characters cameo -- even briefly -- in your favorite comics or shows?
