This thread needs a lot more Kill Six Billion Demons. Fortunately, the most recent is self contained.



Please note that the anatomy is correct per the incident recorded in the Manual of Hands and Feet:

The Manual of Hands and Feet posted:

[The monks] only take apprentices to replace an old master when he dies, so that someone will always be around to make sure Ki Rata does not exist in the wider world. Many supplicants flock to Rayuba in the hopes of being trained by the masters, who sometimes are forced into self defense when they are challenged to unwanted duels.

When I arrived there, hoping for some insight, I witnessed such a duel between a low-ranking monk of the style and a well-known master of Pilgrim fist. Within three moves, the monk, a rather short fellow, use a two finger one-point technique to completely vaporize the bones in both the master’s arms.

tl;dr version of the above: this is a 10-year-old girl with zero powers talking to a millennia-old eldritch abomination.

Talking poo poo to incredibly powerful beings is definitely badass so long as you don't get your face pushed in within the next couple pages.

Such as here, when Allison, a regular ol' barista from LA who always makes the worst possible choice, is speaking with one of the Gods of the Seven Part World, Incubus. (the Jareth and Sailor Moon outfits are because Incubus dropped in to have a chat inside Allison's mind rather than in the physical world)




That's right Allison, tell the literal demigod that you're gonna gently caress him up if he betrays you.

Hell the most badass thing there is the dude looking up at 2 flying men (one of whom has invaded Manhattan numerous times and the other who is a known associate of Galactus) and having the balls to just go "gently caress off you don't pay my bills"

Yeah, that dude is definitely the most badass thing in those panels.

Some people are about to get exploded when the next page of Kill Six Billion Demons comes out as our furious dumbass barista heroine stops being nice and starts getting real:


(possibly favorite part of this tournament arc is that the characters were given random, unexplained rankings just like in a manga and Allison's were B/C/SS+)

Some mook completely misunderstands the nature of the Dark Knight and introduces white nose fungus to the Gotham bat population, hoping that it will spread to the Batcave, and thence to Batman himself

Because they think he's part bat

Then all the bats in the bat cave get infected and die, and Batman gets depressed and stops being a masked vigilante and the guy has beaten Batman.

God Emperor Solomon David - Supreme of the Celestial Empire, Lord of 111,111 Universes, bearer of the word Diamond, and God of the Seven Part World- can do kung fu breathing bullshit and move faster than anyone can react. He gives anyone a chance to come at him every 3 years in a tournament, and if anyone can draw a drop of blood from him they get their hearts desire. No one has ever done it. The tournaments have occurred for thousands of years.

82 White Chain, our Angel protagonist, is fighting him in the finals anyways. Because sometimes fighting evil is just the right thing to do even if you can't win. She's been getting her rear end whipped. (last image spoilered due to NSFW).







Read Kill Six Billion Demons, goddamnit.

It really is, but speaking to anyone thinking of giving it a go - it's definitely one of those things you have to spend probably hundreds of pages with before getting a proper feel for it. It's a huge investment, but totally pays off.

I'd say that if you've passed the Devil Drinking Contest (about 110 pages, or ~5 issues of a printed comic) and you aren't feeling it, then it might not be your jam. I would 100% stick through it past that point, though, because a lot of the first book is about introducing you to a real weird world and the protagonist spends much of book 1 reacting like any normal person would to the situation into which she's thrust.

The art is real good from the start, though, and has kept getting better to the point where it's one of the best drawn comics I've ever seen.

Actual content then: this is from the empyre/savage avengers one shot that came out a couple weeks ago. The whole issue is great and has some A+ Venom content, but I really enjoyed this sequence from Conan. If you haven't been reading Empyre, there are plant people and they are mean.

These are good panels. Harvesters need more run as devices of destruction, and plant dudes are their favored enemy.

Yeah, Operant is real fuckin' good with his art. Really, the only problem with webcomics is that by nature they're page by page so things can seem to take a lot longer to resolve than they actually do upon re-read. Inherent issue with the form, unfortunately.

Aaaand so starts what Abbadon says will be a 50 page fight sequence between Jagganoth and the other six demi-urges of the Seven Part World.

My money is on Jagganoth, since the Demiurges are essentially incapable of working together after a several thousand year cold war between all of them.

Oh poo poo. I'd always wondered why my dad pronounces robot that way. I guess it was just a thing back when he was a kid. He grew up in NYC, and I'm pretty sure read Asimov as a kid. He definitely did as a teen.

Started reading K6BD for the first time this week after having it saved in my bookmarks for years. Pretty cool so far but still waiting to get to the real combat. It's funny reading through the comments on each post and seeing a guy from Image even very early on offering to publish.

The kickoff for the major violence is near the end at Hell 71, IIRC.

Back in the first chapter, the Commander was introduced alongside her tiger bff.


And I was like, awesome, I can dig it. But is the tiger an emotional support animal, or a mere signpost of how badass she is?


No, it turns out the tiger exists to absorb recoil for her anti-Kaiju rifle.

I'm pretty sure this is a repost, and I don't care. It's awesome.
