I just realised, the look on Solomon's face, and the energy crackling off his fists before he notices the roar of the crowd on that last page. He was 100% goin' to ice her. He was totally going to give her a "A NOBLE ATTEMPT" and punch her head off

I certainly dont have deep-seated issues involving birthdays.
I think the part we're gonna hate is the fact that now white chains the emperor and has to deal with this poo poo and its gonna devolve into game of thrones nonsense for a little while as we flounder than the next chapter after that will kick off with the gang being like 'gently caress this' and white chain realizing corrupted laws are worth less than no laws.

"Go on until you're stopped."
The important thing about what Gog-Agog is saying isn't that the crowd is her; it's that she is the crowd. She identifies herself with everybody (because that is what she spends all her time trying to be).

Something a lot of people take for granted is that the "part we'll hate" hasn't already happened.

It could have been any number of things that just weren't as impactful as Operant expected, like Allison being knocked out as the focal point of the tournament.

I don't think Solomon is "losing" to Gog here, I think this is a parry or possibly riposte.

If this is part of him losing, he didn't lose now, he lost several centuries/millennia ago when he built his empire to need him too much.

IIRC he also mentioned on the Discord possibly ending this book a bit earlier than expected on a big cliffhanger because it's already pretty long, so it's not impossible that not even King of Swords's ending will free us from hatechat. :shepicide:

Is there a Zoss crew running around right now?

Every demiurge has their own retinue/following/church/cult. I can't believe Zoss wouldn't have one. I wonder if Allison could potentially tap in to whatever Zoss crew is left.

That has been my read on the situation. Like there is not going to be some sort of heroes defeat Dave in any conventional sense where they physically beat him down and run him out. No one is going to out martial arts him. If he wanted to, he could likely turn around and pulp WC this instant, but she has soundly defeated him philosophically, and if you're just reading for fist fights, that isn't going to be as satisfying as it is for, say, this thread. I don't know how the readership breaks down, but I think the "standard webcomic reader" take is likely correct and a lot of people are going to be "you mean he doesn't get bested in combat?"

A Zoss Posse? Might have a following among the dead, Zoss being deceased and going "nah" could give them something to aspire to; depending on how much word of that has gotten around.
