Begemot posted:Glad to see INGSVLD is still alive, I thought he got an arrow through his book, but apparently that's not actually fatal! Judging by the faces Cio's book has made, even beheadings aren't fatal, just really really miserable because now you're at whoever's mercy until you get a body again (if that's even a thing).

It's dawning on her that her best shot at tracking Allison is to follow Eris Lo-Kai (who she was fighting not that long ago!), which means she's stuck hanging around with a bunch of assholes who are all thinking the same thing, and also INGSVLD who is not an rear end in a top hat and very clearly deserves that key and she feels guilty for infringing upon his noble pursuit out of avarice for power  .

Given that INGSVLD's body/soul is white(ish) in the void, he's definitely a Servant. Given the way Cio is toting around the head of one of his kin, and that servants were all built with a single purpose in mind, I've always imagined that they're basically self-writing books, and as they wander around accumulating knowledge it ends up written on their pages so that anyone can read it (well, once you've beheaded them, at least). Probably the original idea was you have a bunch of them, and when you want to read one you call them over, take off their head, and put it back on when you're done, all very convenient. Of course, when you're whatever random person in modern Throne and don't command the unwavering loyalty of a Book, you're more likely to rip the head off by force and just keep it with you forever.

Given what being a Thorn Knight does to your actual angelic body, it's probably a pretty bad idea to wear their duds, no matter how swag they may be. Going to be interesting seeing what vessel 82 comes back in.

So, unlike a certain other comic with reader input, today's update is both pretty and good!  Also, K6BD got a shoutout on the Super Best Friends podcast, so that was nice to hear. Hopefully that means more people reading and throwing patreon dollars at Abbadon. The Lord of Hats fucked around with this message at 05:48 on Apr 13, 2016 |

Oh geez little girl Mottom is dangerously adorable.SexyBlindfold posted:No, no, Gog-Agog is the most fun Demiurge there is. It's just that, unlike Gog-Agog, Mottom's fun times don't entirely intersect with her "everyone around me is screaming in abject horror" times. I seem to recall reading somewhere that Gog-Agog spends most of their time being a celebrity (while their 7th of the universe sorta goes to poo poo (well, more to poo poo)), so that might actually not be that bad. I really hope now that Allison gets to chill with all of the demiurges before defeating them.

Benson Cunningham posted:At this point, I'm fairly certain Zoss is dead / only exists in Allison's head. Previously I thought there was some room for interpretation, but this latest comic cemented it for me at least. Zoss is 100% dead, yes. His death is what set events in motion. Causality and the linear flow of time just don't mean quite as much when you're the inheritor of all creation.

Operant posted:Weirdly I don't think so, it's a kind of long and awkward story that I like to think gets by on the format. You could do like a 20 minute art-focused short of it and I think it would work really well, or like a short animated movie, but I don't think it would adapt to a series well. So if you were approached with an offer for a K6BD animated series, do you think you'd instead try a different story in the same universe, or would you want to try something else entirely? Do any of the demiurges have a domain that's actually relatively nice? My own bias is really obvious, but do you have a favorite Pursuer? Also, I got my FLCS to stock the comic, I look forward to picking it up!

Operant posted:I'd say the demiurges all rule places that are more or less ok to live in. They're kings that rule insane amounts of territory, and I like to imagine most of them rule by proxy or vassalage. That said, I think Solomon's political structure is probably the most total and also the most stable, he's got a sort of roman empire thing going on with citizenship and (theoretical) voting rights. Alright, new demiurge POWER RANKING questions: rank the demiurges from most to least pleasant to hug.

YggiDee posted:Do we know much about the guy with a book for a face? I want to know more about him. I'm glad you asked, and most certainly wasn't eagerly waiting for somebody to ask about him because he was my submission (disclaimer: every aspect of his design is Abbadon's doing)! That's Ingsvld, a Geas Knight who is (or was, at least) in the service of the Guild of Haberdashers and the Coalition of Wax Drippers. He was part of the group that confronted Preem Vash and Delicious as they tried to leave Preem Nand's slave house with Allison. That didn't go well for him exactly, but he pulled through. He presumably got involved in the brawl going on at the same time, because when we next saw him, in the little side picture showing off the Pursuers, he'd taken an arrow through the head, which is more of an inconvenience than anything else. Since then, he's travelled with the other Pursuers in, well, pursuit of Allison, sneaking into the party through the opening that 6 Juggernaut Star made when he murdered those guards. And now he's here! He's a Servant, and judging by the fact that Cio is toting around a (still-living) head of another of his kind, and the fact that the link to the wiki is similarly a one-eyed book, their purpose is probably pretty much to be books that write themselves/repositories of knowledge.

Brought To You By posted:Sweet, thanks. Do we have a name for the guy on the right? He's the other fighter I'm interested in. That is Kierinsaval of the Golden Feather, a peregrine knight and total jerk who doesn't recognize that the geas knights are way better  . He's another fan-submitted character (if you go back through the comments sections, you'll find a whole lot of silly slapfights between Kierinsaval and Ingsvld).

I imagine that the number of pursuers fluctuates a lot, growing as they chase after Allison and more people follow them, and then you get a massive culling as a bunch of them die off when they find her and FIGHT TIME breaks out. The weak get weeded out of the pack,and the strong continue to hone their skills (and as word spreads stronger and stronger people join the chase) until you've got a solid core of 108 of the mightiest warriors in all of existence who chase after Allison and it's barely even about the key anymore it's just what they do. And of course as the veterans travel together, that mutual loathing turns into a strange kind of respect, and if an outsider thinks they're going to kill a member of the group they've got another thing coming because half of the Pursuers are determined that they will be the one to finish that bastard off at the next Fight and no two-bit sword master is going to take that away from them. Aesma would loving love the whole thing.

Got my print copy! It's smaller than I expected, but its super nice to have it in print form, where I can loan it to friends to oblige them to read it so I can point out ING SD and tell them "That dude is my dude!

Pavlov posted:They also have some kind of feud going with INGSVLD. I forget why. If I remember correctly it started when he made some general diss on Geas Knights (Kierinsaval being a Peregrine Knight). I responded, and it all kind of spiraled from there. I should note that that's purely comment-section and non-canon at the moment, but I wouldn't be surprised if Abbadon adopted it into the comic proper, if he ever decided to give more screentime to the pursuers.

berenzen posted:I can't draw worth poo poo, so I wrote a poem/song. Neither can I, so I'm writing long overwrought entries from INGSVLD's perspective. The first one I won't be able to retrieve until comments actually go up, but here's what I just submitted: INGSVLD posted:While the works of 11 Ocean Crushes Falsehood With Unknowable Depths are widely held to be some of the finest and most influential works of philosophy penned by an angel, I must admit I am not able to hold him in quite so high regard as others do. It began, you see, when I came across an archive of his personal correspondence with Bhayirra Aesmani, a human contemporary, in which they argued the extent to which we are shaped by the fires from which we spring forth. One point, which 11 Ocean presented as a simple matter of fact, was that it was not possible for a devil to know true loyalty, born as they are of the hot black flame. While I cannot say that it is particularly *common* trait, I myself have seen a devil display devotion the likes of which would do a Geas knight proud.
