Will they be in any part of game? Any episode, any level, any huge, epic boss battle? I think they're pretty much a must at this point.

Anyway, you can't have Deep Crows in the game because they are absolutely unstoppable. That would not be fair.
Gaming's not only a hobby... It's a part of my face
So, take that for whatever you will.
Via psionics or an instinctive aura, the Deep Crow gives it's victims a vision of their impending doom instants after it is too late to escape.
EDIT: I'm not a god-fearing Christian, but this thread made me a Crow-fearing atheist.
and title as well
I now live forever in fear. x.x
Yeah, probably best to hold something like that back for now. Done correctly, it might be possible to get an entire episode out of a Deep Crow theme, assuming they throw in the appropriate cultists and roadkill.
What would the boss crow be like? A hive mind? A queen deep crow?
Packs? Have you seen how fucking big they are man?
I would imagine a deep crow would be strained for find a cavern cavernous enough to hold a single deep crow.
Realtor: As you can see, this cavern has a subterrainian lake lit with bioluminescent fungi, an active volcanic vent for waste disposal, cheap heating and demon spawning, & convinent access to Cthulhian cities in the unfathomable depths.
Deep Crow: Hmmm. This cavern, I'm afraid it's not quite...cavernous enough.
Realtor: Oh shi-
Deep Crow: *eats*
One, since Deep Crows are so FUCKING HUGE, how do they have sex without creating cracks in the earth?
Two, it would be fucking AWESOME if Deep Crows were a monster that automatically killed you in a mini-game if you dug too deeply in whatever game it was. Maybe you mine, and if you continue to mine (say akin to macro minining in EVE Online) for too long a period for a HUMAN to mine, a Deep Crow appears. Perhaps it even sings to you before devouring your soul. That would be a great little easter egg for the game. Or maybe avoiding their caverns while mining could be part of the game. I imagine PA can make anything feel worthwhile.
How exactly do you think we got the grand canyon?
Ye gods, what are they teaching the kids in school these days...*grumble*
That don't fuck with cthulhu sig is hilarious.
Oh snap!! Read todays comic? I'll bet you feel like a douche bag now! HAHA!!
EDIT:
Actually now I feel like a douche bag for claiming victory on a month old topic......on the interwebs.
*cries*
Im so lonely........
am i the only one who saw the latest comic and immediately wanted a stand alone game featuring the pest control guy fighting/escaping the deep crows? surely a classic action/platformer would be the perfect template for it. maybe something to think about for when Rainslick is done(or maybe even as a smaller, side project)?
(it's Zay-us not Z-eye-us)
Depending on the next comic, it may not really matter what his name was, heh.
