Ohh, so he is--somehow I didn't realize that either. I've never played Four Swords Adventures, so I just assumed it had an entirely separate 'sorcerer of wind' for a villain that was identical to the other Four Swords villain except for the name. (He got slightly more mention in the first post.)
I wonder why they bothered changing his name at all in English though.
(I hadn't seen the Penny Arcade comic before. It's actually weirdly prophetic.)
