Oh cool this comic has a thread. I discovered it about three months ago and I'm pretty about this whole thing. Personally I hope she goes for the nuclear option over this bullshit.

The whole universe around the comic is pretty well done, is there a good resource to peruse to learn more about it? I want to know why the angels have numbers and how Earth has escaped notice so far.

So are all the universes infinite or can they range from infinite to the size of a meadow with a tree on a hill?

Everything is division, right? The first god divided himself, then the next two divided themselves and so fourth. Somehow that ended up in an indivisible number (sevens) but crucially, the wheel was built and so is probably itself part of a division.

I'm pretty sure the choice is gonna be forced on Allison here. The thorn angel will show up and the ensuing fight will result in the destruction of the murder tree. Who knows how Mottom will react though.

Allison burns the tree-husband. Mottom loses her poo poo and they start a fight, PERISH doesn't work. Something explodes, the two angels show up and thorn dude falls in love with Allison and now the party has 4 members.

MikeJF posted:Looks like she figured out how to harness Power with a capital P. That was sooner than I was expecting. I think this is more the power mirroring her intent. She uses a strike of white lightning which I assume is meant to represent pure, unrefined power and she's just winging it. The other Demiurges use their powers more subtly.

I noticed she stands counter to the big red dude. Is it likely that she will steal Mottoms power and become a Demiurge by murdering Mottom and toppling her throne? (throwing down her castle)

Cutting is inherently destruction and reduction. When you cut the world into shapes you reduce or divide it each time. When is one of these gods going to start creating things?

'What if, like, the power was inside me all along?' Edit:6 Juggernaut Star Scours The Universe is the most ridiculously metal name ever. I love everything about the angels in this universe.

So wait. All these people's names are prophecies or predictions right? So what is the implication of White Chains name? Allisons powers manifest as white lightning, a white spear, white fist etc. What if White Chains name is symbolic of her (it) being tied to Alisson's destiny?

The hand could be White Chain's covered in blood, but the color matches Mottom's skin and it could just be her youth peeling off again.

MikeJF posted:It's not, but it's possible for a death in the real world to trigger a void-death if it's sudden and damaging enough, which accounts for most of White Chain's most recent resets. This might count, but I'm not expecting it, I think we'll be stuck with Jugs causing trouble for a while. I dunno. Jugs literally got sundered in twain. I doubt that cutting an angels body with the angel inside doesn't mean it's spirit got cut too.

Darth Walrus posted:He didn't just get by by being an angel, though. Even among angels, he's a straight-up monster, as evidenced by him becoming leader of the most violent angel faction via violence and still not managing to die that often. White Chain is an 83, and even she hasn't seen anywhere near the level and intensity of combat that Juggernaut Star has. I get that there are bigger players out there, like Jagganoth and Metatron (and most of the tougher demiurges), but Juggs feels like a tough mid-boss rather than a starting jobber, if you get me. Hey he completely wrecked that one teacup.

MonsieurChoc posted:There's actually a french comic about a kid with no arms or legs kicking rear end with psychic powers: Alef-Thau. It's part of that wave of weird sci-fi comics that started in the 70s/80s like the Incal. French comics are crazy. When I was a teenager I read a whole bunch that got translated to Danish that I found in my library like Darkmoon Chronicles, Meta Barons, Wake, Gipsy and a bunch of others I don't remember. I have tried on and off to find them online but most of them are out of print which is sad.

Speaking of crazy French comics, is there a thread for locating comics you don't remember the name of? There was one series I read about a generic hero guy, an old man and his two magical daughters going on adventures with their pet troll.

That would be so wonderful It's honestly a good way to bring the drama down a little bit after this 'OH poo poo gently caress poo poo poo poo poo poo' chapter. Give Allison a chance to calm down and try to deal with her weird angel and demon friends and introduce her soon to be conquered Earth.
