Don't let the lack of a hog distract you from the fact that in 2021, Jagganoth threw Mammon's head off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16,000 ft through an announcer's table.

Yes, that exactly. Thank you.

I probably should have expected that Jag wasn't going to just let them go after surviving his un-survivable attack, but chaos dunking them with Mammon's head is a vastly more metal follow up than I had dreamed of.

Isn't War For Rayuba a Discord-only thing? I sure hope it's not canon because I sure don't wanna read through months of Discord chaff.

yeah its discord only, its a comics tournament thing, and not the first one abbadon has done. they've all been amazing but it sure is a lot to try and catch up on if you weren't there seeing it all as it happened. but hot drat there are a lot of really talented people reading this comic and they drew a bunch of other comics and characters that all kick rear end

none of it is canon at all though its just a place for fan art in the same world

I believe Abaddon said the set-up for War For Rayuba is canon and the end result will determine what happens to Rayuba within the canon. The non-Abaddon comics themselves are not canon outside of determining which side of the war is winning. You do not need to read any of it, it definitely won't matter to the comic's plot as a whole and its only in an especially relevant position right now. Effectively it's only relevant to the thread right now because we know we have to get from where the comic's plot is now to the WFR set up of "Rayuba still exists but has a big rear end battlefield where its capitol was, White Chain is alive and leading Solomon's army, Jagganoth's army is lead by a giant living sword in his absence, no living demiurges are still on Rayuba".

Yeah there's no way in hell that after all that build up for White Chain's apotheosis that Abaddon would just off her.

I wouldn't be surprised if she's heavily wounded like Allison and Cio, but she's definitely alive.

Demiurge4

That's all assuming that White Chain hasn't transcended the laws that bound her as an angel. She's probably been punted back to the void but I wouldn't be surprised if she can reform her physical body at any time and isn't reliant on mortals making her a stone one anymore. In fact I'm very much hoping we get a panel where White Chain appears back in the void next to the gathering army of angels and Juggernaught Star asks what the hell are you wearing???

White Chain may be a bit more meaty than she used to be, but she's still a being of living flame. I assume she just reattached or regrew her eye and arm after she had them cut off.

It's already established that Cio is the sole detailed chronicler of the reign of the Rising King (much to future historians' annoyance), and we know White Chain is fine. Safe to assume none of our girls are going anywhere any time soon (metaphorically, at least - I'm sure they'll all head off on grand quests of cosmic importance, together or separately).

Oh, hadn't known that, I assumed Cio was getting loving bodied in the next comic, that's good to hear. Like, yeah, bad poo poo can happen, it would just suck to kill Cio for cheap drama. Probably wouldn't happen, because it doesn't feel very KSBD, but I was a little :ohdear:.

It's probably worth noting both Cio and White Chain have died before in their pasts. Allison's the only one capable of a true death.

here come the planes
'bury your gays,' like a lot of things, is supposed to be criticism in aggregate. there's nothing wrong with a queer character dying in a piece of media, the issue is that as a whole very few queer couples in media get through a story without one or both of them ending up dead

like, look at the bechdel test -- a piece of media passing the bechdel test doesn't make it better than a piece of media that doesn't; it's just supposed to point out that a lot of pieces of media don't pass an incredibly low bar and that's the problem
