The epic of Salami Dave vs Pepper-Jackonoth.

I really hope that doesn't happen; like, sure, let's establish that Jagganoth is Serious Business, but I'd rather not see Solomon instagibbed or Ki Rata just shoved aside. Maybe have Jagganoth brush it aside and Solomon then have to retreat? It'd feel slightly more interesting since the "big strong character instagibbed by Actual Big Bad" approach has been done so many times. (Also Solomon hasn't really learned the lesson of democracy yet)

Let's do the space-time warp again!

In the next sequence, Solomon David will be forced to unbind his beard and release its full potential.

Trying to clear Universal War (Ultimate) with a nonstandard party comp including a bunch of players not even at level cap and only 3 of them equipping their Keys is already a reach. At least they have a full party of 8 facing off against Jag in that first panel.

I wonder how much was destroyed in that initial blast. I assumed it was contained within the arena at first, but now it's looking like it might be the whole city, at least.

It did break out of the Arena containment, but also what we see on this pages roughly matches up with what we saw of the remains of the arena at the end of the last chapter, so it's difficult to saw how much damage was done to the rest of the city.

Seeing how the sword could nuke a demiurge shielded colosseum, I'm betting Jag's warpick is equally nasty, maybe even worldbreaking.

Abaddon previously said that Solomon David could fight Jagganoth to a standstill, but Jagg is still invulnerable.

It would rule if both of them are locked out of the plot for a while because they’re locked in incredibly badass combat that we cut back to occasionally to maintain a sense of time pressure as Solomon is slowly worn out.

Most probable option here is that Solomon doesn't hurt Jagganoth in the slightest, but does make the collateral damage even more appalling in his blind rage.

This would be interesting to me. Solomon David fighting just to buy time for others would be a cool way to allow the heroes time to escape.

Jadis is also there, and presumably not just to spectate.

Does jagganoth have a different weapon for each of the other demiurges? Six in total?

Jan 1, 2013
I count eight, including the bow and the two he's holding in his hands. It's at plausible that six might be anti-Demiurge weapons and one or two of them might be general-purpose weapons for fighting non-Demiurges.

the warpick would obviously be for cracking Jadis's crystal. the bow would be for Mammon? and I don't think we have any good shots of what the other ones are.

do we know that these weapons are specifically designed to fight each demiurge? like, they could always be general use weapons each with bizarre, reality - bending effects

Yeah, Sword/Hammer/Bow and then there's 5 handles, one's another sword and there's three more sword(?) tips you can see peeking out. Kind of weird he doesn't have a spear, which is drat near close to the primordial first weapon ever created. Maybe one is some kind of short spear or something.

If one of those is something weird like nunchucks or a two-handled thing then he'd have one for each + allison.

At lest two are almost useless at his level, but one looks super cool with his current outfit and the other was his main weapon while grinding through the 30s and he can’t bring himself to toss it.

I think for primordial first weapon hammer beats out spear since even unworked stone functions as a hammer. Also rocks are even more common as weapons/tools among animals than sticks. What I'm saying is that this means Intra killed Yem Yedo with a thrown hammer, which doesn't even have to be "a particularly sharp rock" as Meti might have called it.

Mottom's the main healer (her specialty is life magic, c'mon). Solomon, being the monk, is the off-healer, and Gog and Jadis handle team buffs and utility. Incubus is the support DPS/debuffer, and Mammon is the tank.

You sure Incubus isn't a mini boss?
