Are those wings coming out of her eyes? Wires? Are those even her eyes? Where is the face? And where the hell was her ether-pidgeon resting? A few interesting details i noticed: The metal is rusty but looks in working condition, except on the face, which is covered in cracks (some kind of paralel to Annie's mask). The hair seems to turn around towards her face, forming a shape kind looking like a bird wathcing over her. A tick-tock, maybe? Wili fucked around with this message at 08:21 on Jun 13, 2012 |

It really reminds me of something, and I'm straining myself to think what it is.

You know, I was joking when I figured that Zimmy would literally see her as being machine in nature. What the hell does this mean. E: I have the suspicion that somehow, in some way, Kat is responsible for the Tic-Tocs. Most likely from the future. I'm not even joking.

Well god drat, no wonder Zimmy is terrified. But yeah, I think this is how the robots see Kat too.

At the start of the chapter when Zimmy was saying "I don't wanna see her" I just assumed she meant Annie. I guess she meant the great big creepy mech/bird lady instead?

Jesus loving Christ! That's legitimately scary. That's silent hill hosed up wrong. All hail the Machine Herald. Glory to the Metal Messiah.

Well, we know why Tom's been silent for most of the chapter. Just when we'd started pegging Kat down as the mundane anchor of the two, we have this pop up in front of us E: Tea-san I'd buy this as a poster or print or wall scroll or loving anything in a heartbeat.

My first though was "Oh so Kat's the Shrike now."

That's far more terrifying than the wheels-within-wheels-with-eyes biblical angel. I wonder if this is just a product of a Zimmist reality or is Kat, like Annie, actually something more than human? Oh yeah! I almost forgot... ffffffffffffffffffffFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUCK.

Sweet merciful jesus that is not what I expected it to be . Maybe that's how the robot's see her? Also that would make a pretty bangin avatar

Holy poo poo, this is insane. I didn't know you had this in you, Kat! And I would also buy a poster of this because holy loving poo poo.

God, the art in this comic never fails to amaze me. Gorgeous. I was going to nab an avatar of this, but I changed my mind, so here are some variations on that theme instead:

I mean, we were presumably seeing ZimmyVision when we were seeing City Face on Kat's head earlier, so I guess she only just started seeing Kat like this when she got tossed out of Annie's space just then. Tom's comment at the bottom frightens me.

So wait, does this mean that Kat is actually an android? Does this mean that this page was foreshadowing this?

Man, all your better quality religions have weird rear end angels. If those guys looked too much like you, you wouldn't give them the proper respect. Tell me you wouldn't be respectful as hell if you saw *that* coming at you.

"And how do I look?" "loving awesome.." Does the shape coming down from the centre top remind anyone else of a birds head?

Willias posted:So wait, does this mean that Kat is actually an android? As in Kat is not actually a human child but rather some kind of incredibly sophisticated golem, brought to life by Donny and Anja, and disguised by "etheric science" to seemingly grow up and interact like a real human child? Maybe in line with the Court's endeavor to become god?

Somewhere in Kat's ancestry is some guy who had sex with a robot. Hey, it isn't any harder to believe than doin' it with fire. Humans' ability to find beauty in anything etc etc

The bird features are pretty distinctive. They look like they're modeled after the ibis. Thoth, the the Egyptian god of magic, science, writing, and judgment, had an ibis for a head. inkblot posted:It's like all y'all just forgot HR Giger existed. I got more of a "holy trinity" vibe. The creator, the created, and some sort of divine spark or energy.
