What I get from this is he's still imposing but definitely diminished. Almost all the color's drained from him, even the nails, but he's still the biggest one in the room. His eye wouldn't be glinting, and the forced perspective wouldn't be causing him to tower over her (instead of being "only" twice-ish as tall like in the wide shot) if he wasn't still a threat. But at least he's probably not invulnerable anymore.

Are the nails partially wrapped around his forearms like bracers?

I think those are just chains. As far as we know the nails are all literal nails he drove into his body.

On the plus side, Rabuya got a new tourist attraction. "Come see the great Jagganoth, Bearer of the word Mind(?) and ruler of the 7 part world". They can build a nice park around him after they clear out all this ash.

Those aren't stars, that's just obliterated debris-snow, you can see them as flurries in the other panels.

i think its significant that the Battle for Rayuba is between White Chain and one of Jagganoth's swords, because i don't figure Jagganoth for the kind of guy who just strews sentient swords around the place and then doesnt pick them back up

Really? Man's the best general of the demiurges. He understands the value of area denial and stay-behind forces to bog down the enemy in the mess you've made. If a sword is sapient enough to command a war effort in his absence, then he'll absolutely make use of it.

Considering that he and Incubus are in cahoots on this whole thing, my prediction is that whatever Incubus just did will just make Jagganoth more powerful rather than killing him.

Incubus was clearly pissed that Jaggs triggered the whole thing early and he was surprised when his blade actually did something.

My assumption is that the big team up move worked perfectly and did exactly what it was supposed to do, and that Jagganoth anticipated this and built his plan around it.

My assumption is that he didn't see it coming (because there was no way that even he, one of the cleverest generals in the multiverse, could expect Allison and company to break reality that hard in that specific way), but that he's tough enough and his army is mighty enough that it'll only buy them temporary breathing room.

My prediction is that Jagg is temporarily sealed, and he will remain a looming threat as the rest of the book deals with the other demiurges fighting again while resisting Jagg's armies that are probably invading a bunch of places right now.
