it took me a little while to figure out that cio did not in fact have four arms, but rather that she just gestures like a spaz and the art is meant to reflect her hyperactive flailing

so its interesting that the master angel guy, 2 michael, commented that white chain's human appearance was a sign of corruption by attachment to the world, but 1 metatron looks really really really human compared to all the other prime angels

knights mendicant are broadly similar to the old cliche of the itinerant beggar-monk, so of course its not advisable to gently caress with them.

e. also, her full name is something like Maya Kill the Gods and Topple Their Thrones.

e2. of course, Allison now has the surname Kill Six Billion Demons bestowed on her by Zoss, so maybe theyre not all that important

what im getting is zoss is juggernaut's enemy, but only because juggernaut is loyal to a power that wants a controlling stake over zoss's successor. he's a "royalist", after all. juggernaut is also under the impression that zaid is the successor, which still leaves us with exactly two people in throne who are in on the actual workings of the sitch.

well, it was kind of a bushwhack.

ive sort of been thinking that zoss isnt actually dead. he was alive enough to appear to allison in the spirit world or whatever that place was, and gog-agog survived having her head blown off with minimal inconvenience. i think hes just laying low.

heres one to think on - in addition to looking human, metatron bleeds. theres something fleshy under his shell.

What is everyone's favorite character?

Mine is somebody who hasn't made an personal appearance in the story, yet influences it more then perhaps anyone else:



It feels strange that she would ever just face a direction, tell a tale and wither away.

i feel like there was some indication that ashma is the same person as aesma

e. unless thats what youre talking about in which case id point out that she did appear in exactly one panel. bottom line is that pree aesma owns pretty hard.

I love the Aesma stories. She'd such an incredible jerk, but everyone else is so stuck up that she's the only one who gets anything done (and then learns nothing from the experience.)

so where do the concordant knights figure into this clusterfuck? presumably theyre just working for the "good" of throne, whatever that entails, as opposed one particular entity as the thorns are. but im wondering if theres someone 2 michael answers to.

I suppose the younger you are, the more times you have reincarnated, paradoxically.

White Chain has principles, dammit, and that gets you killed a whole bunch in a place like Throne

e. im disappointed we didnt get White Chain and Delicious starring in a buddy cop subplot. dammit 2 Michael, I get results.

actually if theres one complaint i have about KSBD, its that sometimes the flow of the panels can be a little hard to follow. they sometimes kind of smash around like a McG joint, and its can get disorienting.

the sanctioned action is to Drink

to Drink means division by the Cup of Want, that holder of infinities that excises potential

to train with the cup, first master chugging. when you have mastered chugging, you must master the way of sipping water. when you have learned to sip water you must learn to split wood. having split wood you must learn to find fine herbs in the forest, the arts of writing, the arts of paper making, and poetry writing. you must become familiar with the awl and the pen in equal measure. when you have mastered all these things you must master building a house. once your house is built, you have no further need for a cup, since it is an ugly piece of pottery and its adherents idiots.

ive never read SFP but the impression i get from Allison is that her entire experience in Throne is one long bout of sensory overload interspersed with moments of "holy poo poo thats awesome". my favorite line so far is from when shes watching movies with her friends and says something to the effect that the princess should stay in her tower, because at least its safe. its very telling that she makes the decision to go back for Zaid, despite him being kind of a creep.

Solomon David is my favorite demiurge b/c all the others we have seen are these grotesque weirdos — and lets be real, theres no way a guy called "Incubus" isnt also going to be mondo grody — and David is just this haughty guy in a chair.

e. also i just realized that White Chain's "be not" mantra they use when wrecking Preem Nand's creepy doll-devils in Hell 71 is a reference to angels in the bible saying "be not afraid".

White Chain isn't saying that, it's leaking out of their shell of its own accord. They cracked up a bit when they lied to Preem Nand.

im still not sure why Nand let them hang around when he knew for a fact he was being lied to.

Solomon David is going to turn out to be the mondo grodiest of all in every way except his looks, just you wait.

And he'll keep his looks by wearing the skin of virgins or something too.

Yeah I'm guessing that Solomon David is the only one who has retained his form.

I hope he doesn't ever have any underlings or other forms or anything. He's just a smug guy with the biggest crown sitting in the tallest chair.

plot twist - he cant actually move from that pose. his smugness has ossified him into a permanently smirking guy in a big chair.
