names can be a lot of things. Allison is just a name, and not a good one, because she's no one's son.


Some names are descriptions of character, like the angels.

Others are mission statements, like Murder the gods and topple their thrones.

I wouldn't be surprised if Himself was a rubric of some kind.

Finally some names are prophecies so strong that they border on Fact, like Al-Yis-Un, Kill Six Billion Demons.
:eng101: "-on" is a French diminutive suffix (like -ette) so Allison means "Little Alice", not "Son of Alice".

allison's name might be why they're all expecting a male heir - they keep calling her "alice" and "alice-un" is a good approximation of her name... except "un" is a title male dieties get.


of course, her name could also be interpreted as al-yisun...

I hope harp-head isn't dead. They weren't ripped apart, as far as I can tell, and seem to presently be flying through the air cartoonishly rather than dying horribly, but they are (or, were) in Juggernaut Star's path, and that clearly doesn't seem like a good place to be.

His only hope is that Juggernaut has places to be and thus no time to ensure the kill, anyone who got hit by the wheel is probably dead though.

Oh yeah I meant to say when this page first droppd, turns out bughelm is a lady, probably? Right in the middle of the top panel, you can see the helmet doing an acrobatic pirouette into the background just to the left of her head.

The spearhead has a different, more ornamental, design than the spear that was lodged in White Chain's head.

No, I think Demiurge4 is right. If you look at the panel where White Chain is grabbing it, you can see some of the tassels and stuff below their hands. Most of the fancy bits are just being covered with the way they're gripping it.

The prior panel doesn't have the spear's details because its trying to show motion.

It will also be 3 times more at your local comic shop than on Amazon. I'm, not saying don't support them, but drat do they make it difficult sometimes.
