My rocks are too dangerous for you, Demiurge.
My rocks are so sharp as to cut the very wheel, and you are not the great wheel.
I suggest you find a rock seller with less sharp rocks!
My rocks are the sharpest in the yard
And I’m like, they are sharper than yours
Damn right they are sharper than yours
I could teach you, but I have to use them now.
Great, because it was compressed and hardened under the weight of his pride. Even after his vengeance was complete, though, his lack of subsequent daughters showed that the wounds never truly healed.
Awful, because it deprives him of the mental discipline to use the martial art that is his greatest strength. While his current display is visually impressive, I believe that Solomon is currently weaker than when he fought White Chain.
A visually impressive purple outpouring of grief and anger and power indeed, but most is wasted around him; all should be focused, in the obvious direction.
And even that would be pointless, since Jagganoth is completely invulnerable. No wonder Solomon David is furious: his home, the world he was pledged to defend was attacked by this giant jerk and he knows he probably can’t stop him!
I do hope that he at least survives the attempt, but the narrative does seem to require that he get swatted down here to show how hopelessly overmatched everyone is by Jagganaut.
Hush, tha! lest someone mistake yer sarcasm for tha blag-about called Bob, he what was banished from our lands for being a wee bitch an complainin that tha story-picture wern’t as predictable as he had expected!
Really, Bob got banned? He must have been really buthurt about the plot then. I know he was a moron that was whining alot, but I didn’t see anything noteworthy from his bitching.
I remember that, he was paranoid about the comic morphing into SJW propoganda( like what happened to sinfest). Dumb that white chains transformation would be the trigger for that, it was pretty obvious and most people saw it coming all the way from book one.
And although I also had some similar worries a while back, I decided ultimately to wait untill zaid was brought back into the narrative and see how his subsequent characterization is handled before I made any serious judgements. And after the group shot of the team facing solomon, and the art updates to zaid in book one, I suspect he will become one of the crew.
Anyway, guy was just another obsessive idiot I guess.
I think the great power of Jagganoth is not that he is that much more powerful than the other Seven, it’s that he cannot be stopped. A Jagganoth in motion remains in motion until a Jagganoth of equal strength and power opposes it – and Solomon is not a Jagganoth.
He might be able to delay Jagganoth. He might be able to, seemingly, defeat Jagganoth for a time.
But I bet, dollars to donuts, like the wind (or a Shonen Hero), Jaggy will rise up again and again and again until eventually Solomon is too tired and exhausted to continue.
I’m expecting that SD will give us vast, population-erasing fireworks and at the end J will be just be standing there scowling because, at this point, he only wants to talk.
Lice. A jar full of assorted lice applied deftly and with subtlety is pretty much guaranteed to bring great discomfort to the hairy and our boy Jaggsey appears to be no friend of the razor.
“An angry man can later become happy; a resentful man, pleased. But a kingdom destroyed may never be restored, nor can the dead be brought back”, said once a wise man.
Hither came Jagganoth, the Red God, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the other gods under his sandalled feet.
*is going to get messy. Sorry for the incorrect grammar, I usually stay articulate but I was distracted by the culmination greatest conflict in all creation. My apologies.
She was warning him this was about to happen. Her glass glowed red like it does when displaying a vision. Much too late though so I guess she just wanted to see his reaction when it actually happened.
Jadis is also the personification of Sloth, and truly wishes to die IIRC. She showed up later than would be useful (sloth) and right in the blast radius (suicidal). I’ve got other theories about her for this arc based off the cover, but that can wait until we’re deeper into this scene.
He could pull a “You broke it, you bought it.” and body snatch Salami Dave after Dave destroys him ala Captain Ginyu. Then Jaggy in Dave’s body is even more of a threat.
On a meta note, this would also explain Jaggy’s mask, and how he got quite so large. But I’m doubtful things will go that way, if only because DBZ did it first.
Despute my sobriety, but the only conceivable victory I can foresee is Alison smoking a bong the size of a steamboat with Jagganoth so she can explain the error in his ways while The Team scrapes Salami scraps off the streets.
Note two formidable enemies were bested by drugs: one through inebriation another through withdrawal.

APOCALYPSE SOON
ELEPHANT HELMET BONG… NOW!
okay, you’re tough jaggy, not gonna lie i don’t think i can beat you
but can you handle this shit? it’s from a place called afghanistan, you’d like it there, been at war with like every empire in the area and not the planet for like ever.
Tragic loss of business for that ice-monger really, Jagganoth seems more the type to cut a glacier apart when he wants a cold drink. They say he’s so great but I’d wager he’d never appreciate a real shindig even if it ended with maggots digging the nails out of his rotting flesh.
Jagganoth, Jadis, Solomon David and Gog-Agog are physically here.
Incubus is watching from Allison’s mind and probably getting ready to make his move.
Matanghi is likely close, with the pursuers who came to the tournament.
Allison has all of her team.
Of the big players, the only ones missing are Nadia, Memnon, Himself and the angels. I’m expecting Metatron and Michael to have their own part to play
42 Fragments the Universe Beyond All Reintegration
Solomon summons the power of paradox. If he fights long enough, some of the people of the city may escape. But if he fights hard enough to delay Jagganoth, the energy-wash from the fight will erase the fleeing people.
I half expected the final book to start with some other plot thread, likely another Maya-Meti-Incuboy flashback, or suchlike, both to make a kliffhanger more torturous (is this even a word?..) and to remind us that the story is way more complex. Apparently it is not a time; OK than. Current theory that the 5th books isn’t going to be one long battle scene, as soeone above predicted, yet will procede in an utmost calamity leaving Allison badly scathed (percieve the cover) – it was stated at Twitter that Abbdin closed the book earlier than planned, and we are actaully not at the beginning of BoF, but more likely still in the final arc of KoS.
So I guess the war starts disastrously, and after the first defeat our heroes have to do lots of stuff before facing Jagganoth again. Those who live through the upcoming pages, that is.
And also… don’t forget the prophetic words uttered once.
“There was one who came with the broken sun in her brow, and her blood was like molten gold. Once she stole the secret fire of Those Who Came Before from the Red Gods and coveted it, but it ruined her and made her ugly. She was a dirty god and she had a powerful enemy. She could not avail to touch him, so she crouched in his shadow while he became increasingly swollen with his own power and bloodthirst. Instead of growing, she diminished, and grew disheveled and her fire dimmed. But inside, her spark grew more powerful and fierce. She waited for the day her enemy became so tottering under his own monstrous power she could hack at it his ankles and fell him with a single blow.”
-Chronicle of the Fourth Conquest, quoted under Seeker of Thrones 10-122. I guess that’s the hint of what’s going to happen.
salami dave, head shaved on a monday, chest waxed on a tueday, beard-braid on a wednesday, prepped tourney for thursday, saw combos on friday, took challenge on saturday, there wasn’t even a sunday coz jaggy be craycray, and that was the end of solomon dave, yay?
You know, jaggy probably chose to have his warhammer out in his other hand for a reason. Maybe he planned to provoke salami with the swordsplosion, and the hammer is for beating him into the earth now that he’s unfocused.
Ki Rata is based on breathing techniques, isn’t it? Maybe this super scream is part of that? But Jaggy is supposed to be completely invulnerable, according to Mottom. So, the outcome of any fight should be a foregone conclusion. You cannot defeat someone who is invulnerable, unless you find a way to prevent them from doing harm, since harming THEM is utterly impossible.
BTW: have we even seen SD fight with all his power before? I wonder what happens if he goes all out?
There is a possibility that the nails themselves are not invulnerable, and if all nails are destroyed, Jag may lose his imperviouness.
On the other hand, it’s the last volume and the Seven need to go. Even though SD is the least horrible (from what we are let to believe), even he will have to go.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Jag getting a life threatening ass-kicking before he pulls himself together and finally prevail.
There stood the Red Eyed King, before YISUN’s Speaking house. The armaments Pree Aesma had crafted him in her infatuation making him impervious to all worldly and unworldly harm. Yet, as he approached the gates of the speaking house, he saw a small girl, a human of Koss’ hearth. Supposedly, as pitiful and frail as she was, her very presence caused the Red Eyed King to stop momentarily, and turn away, heading in another direction.
“You saw sagacious Solomon
You know what came of him
To him, complexities seemed plain
He cursed the hour that gave birth to him
And saw that everything was vain
How great and wise was Solomon
The world, however, did not wait
But soon observed what followed on
It’s wisdom that had brought him to this state
How fortunate the man with none.”
Demiurge fight!
Bring only the sharpest of rocks!
Nice callback. Have a drink, it’s on me.
North Korea wants that magic sword of nuclear fireballs, but it’s not for sale.
My rocks are too sharp for you, demiurge. You cannot handle my rocks.
Now see here, rock-seller! I’m going into battle and I need only your sharpest rocks!
My rocks are too dangerous for you, Demiurge.
My rocks are so sharp as to cut the very wheel, and you are not the great wheel.
I suggest you find a rock seller with less sharp rocks!
My rocks are the sharpest in the yard
And I’m like, they are sharper than yours
Damn right they are sharper than yours
I could teach you, but I have to use them now.
You jest, but this is quite simply the exact dynamic between Old King Zoss and the Demiurges.
Rock-Seller, I’m telling you I need your sharpest rocks! I’m going into the Apocalypse! I’m going into The Apocalypse and I need your sharpest rocks!
oh, but the wrathbof a ruined man is great and awful
Great, because it was compressed and hardened under the weight of his pride. Even after his vengeance was complete, though, his lack of subsequent daughters showed that the wounds never truly healed.
Awful, because it deprives him of the mental discipline to use the martial art that is his greatest strength. While his current display is visually impressive, I believe that Solomon is currently weaker than when he fought White Chain.
A visually impressive purple outpouring of grief and anger and power indeed, but most is wasted around him; all should be focused, in the obvious direction.
And even that would be pointless, since Jagganoth is completely invulnerable. No wonder Solomon David is furious: his home, the world he was pledged to defend was attacked by this giant jerk and he knows he probably can’t stop him!
But what is a king whit no kingdom?
A man
A MISERABLE PILE OF SECRETS
YOUR LIES ARE AS EMPTY AS TOUR SOUL!
IT WAS NOT BY MY HAND THAT I WAS ONCE AGAIN GIVEN
FLESH
FLESH
FLESH
I was called here by humans who wished to pay me tribute
Tribute?! You steal men’s souls, and make them your slaves!
YOU HAVE UUUUUNOOOOOOO YOU FUCKING DICK!
The man is stronger than the king.
He still does have another 111,110 universes to spare.
But if he goes to any of them then Jagganoth is sure to follow.
Yet will they bow when their capital, full of the administrators of the empire, lies in ruins?
A Dom.
WUB WUB WUB WUB
SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOON
Oh he is gonna get killed so bad
I do hope that he at least survives the attempt, but the narrative does seem to require that he get swatted down here to show how hopelessly overmatched everyone is by Jagganaut.
My man’s about to get Worfed
Yes, this comic has always been about doing things in the most obvious, predictable way possible
Hush, tha! lest someone mistake yer sarcasm for tha blag-about called Bob, he what was banished from our lands for being a wee bitch an complainin that tha story-picture wern’t as predictable as he had expected!
Really, Bob got banned? He must have been really buthurt about the plot then. I know he was a moron that was whining alot, but I didn’t see anything noteworthy from his bitching.
I seem to recall him raising a rather considerable fuss about White Chain’s transformation.
I believe he was little more than a contrarian whose arrogance and pretention far outstripped his mental capabilities.
I remember that, he was paranoid about the comic morphing into SJW propoganda( like what happened to sinfest). Dumb that white chains transformation would be the trigger for that, it was pretty obvious and most people saw it coming all the way from book one.
And although I also had some similar worries a while back, I decided ultimately to wait untill zaid was brought back into the narrative and see how his subsequent characterization is handled before I made any serious judgements. And after the group shot of the team facing solomon, and the art updates to zaid in book one, I suspect he will become one of the crew.
Anyway, guy was just another obsessive idiot I guess.
I think Solomon will put up a good fight.
I think the great power of Jagganoth is not that he is that much more powerful than the other Seven, it’s that he cannot be stopped. A Jagganoth in motion remains in motion until a Jagganoth of equal strength and power opposes it – and Solomon is not a Jagganoth.
He might be able to delay Jagganoth. He might be able to, seemingly, defeat Jagganoth for a time.
But I bet, dollars to donuts, like the wind (or a Shonen Hero), Jaggy will rise up again and again and again until eventually Solomon is too tired and exhausted to continue.
Allison recently learned the lesson of unity and friendship. She and the gang should support Solomon Dave in this battle.
in short
“I’m the Jagganoth, bitch!”
No no, WE are the Jagganoth.
I’m expecting that SD will give us vast, population-erasing fireworks and at the end J will be just be standing there scowling because, at this point, he only wants to talk.
Cue Gog exploding out of Jagg’s skull with a “Hol up a sec, bro!”
Dave is PISSED
i’ve seen this before
people, this man,
he mad
If a 30-foot man in an elephant hat and a jock-strap turned up to my party i’d wager i’d be fair disgruntled myself.
Particularly if he encouraged all the other guests to leave.
And he arrived without an invitation to boot! Of all Mick Jaggernoth’s sins, I declare ‘being a poor guest’ chiefest amongst them.
The question, though, is what can an angry Salami do against an elephant skull bear man?
Lice. A jar full of assorted lice applied deftly and with subtlety is pretty much guaranteed to bring great discomfort to the hairy and our boy Jaggsey appears to be no friend of the razor.
“An angry man can later become happy; a resentful man, pleased. But a kingdom destroyed may never be restored, nor can the dead be brought back”, said once a wise man.
He’s… He’s gone Super Solomon! The legends are true!
He’s getting hair?
No, but every hair atop his head turned gold!
/spittake
Chain comments like these are a great part of the why I love this comic.
you’re not just dealing with an ordinary rayuban warrior anymore
That’s right Jagganoth, I have risen beyond the limits of a normal Rayuban, and into the realm of legend!
Ooooo! Does this mean his beard’s gonna turn Blonde? Or Blue?
Pink would be more likely than Blue.
Beast mode
When the gods go to war, everyone loses. Strap in ye mortal fools, this going to get *messy*.
Speaking of, our little band of mortal, not so mortal, and inbetweeny ones should probably flee. Like, now.
I just realized, Solomon’s sons were all watching in the arena, weren’t they?
He got what he expected: “Twenty-five generations of my sons have withered and died before me. I do not expect any of you will achieve much else.”
I guess that means he was right not to bother picking an heir.
“Were” is extremely correct.
Jagganoth, Storm-Crowned, came to Rayuba
Hither came Jagganoth, the Red God, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the other gods under his sandalled feet.
I compliment thee, for thy name is a glorious one.
LARGE SURGE OF POWER.
URGE TO PLAY UNMEI NO HI RISING.
*is going to get messy. Sorry for the incorrect grammar, I usually stay articulate but I was distracted by the culmination greatest conflict in all creation. My apologies.
Solomon: “Time: GRIND TO A HALT!”
J A G G A N O T H: “You dare oppose the Ultimate Life Form? I shall cast you and your people into the dark abyss of death.”
Solomon doesn’t win this. Ki-rata is an art based around precision, and cannot be wielded by a man blind with rage.
And thus Jagganoth chose this moment and manner to strike. No accident, I think.
Also Jagganoth is like, way bigger
For us.
I’m crashing this tournament
He’s not wearing hockey pads, at least
Thus, by design, he is expending his rage to more sensibly take on this new threat in a few minutes after refreshments.
Alas no. Anger serves to protect the home and family. In no other form is it more justified, but it will be insufficient.
Jagganoth has dragged Solomon David down to his own level and will beat him by experience.
The roar of a parent who has watched countless scores of their children die is truly a terrible thing.
And yet, I fear it shall not be enough against the Lord of Rage.
Methinks he’s a trifle miffed.
Perchance thou art correct.
So much for stoicism
Stoics are just people who have not been tortured enough.
Oh he’s having a bad day.
When the gods are havin’ a fight
everyone else better hold on tight!
This won’t be the first time Solomon has sought to avenge slaughtered Rayubans.
If he wasn’t so hellbent on remaking it so often it wouldn’t get destroyed so much.
this comic is better than most, but almost no one fights as creatively as i’d like
i will retract the comment if dave here hits jaggy with rayuba’s sun
bonus points is a joke is made about the recipient being “star-browed”
Tell me, how did one of my kind die this often?
Key Rata
Quite. If 10-fingered Ki Rata breaks planets, what does the enhanced, multiplied form do?
So… whats Jadis up to? Why she here?
She was warning him this was about to happen. Her glass glowed red like it does when displaying a vision. Much too late though so I guess she just wanted to see his reaction when it actually happened.
Jadis is also the personification of Sloth, and truly wishes to die IIRC. She showed up later than would be useful (sloth) and right in the blast radius (suicidal). I’ve got other theories about her for this arc based off the cover, but that can wait until we’re deeper into this scene.
She honors the pact of the seven part universe. Anyone who breaks the peace is beset upon by all others at once. May the innocent find mercy.
David about to die.
i would kind of love it if he kicked jagganoth’s ass, but jaggy was still a gigantic threat somehow
subversion for it’s own sake is overrated, but subversion with a good twist is always great
He could pull a “You broke it, you bought it.” and body snatch Salami Dave after Dave destroys him ala Captain Ginyu. Then Jaggy in Dave’s body is even more of a threat.
On a meta note, this would also explain Jaggy’s mask, and how he got quite so large. But I’m doubtful things will go that way, if only because DBZ did it first.
Despute my sobriety, but the only conceivable victory I can foresee is Alison smoking a bong the size of a steamboat with Jagganoth so she can explain the error in his ways while The Team scrapes Salami scraps off the streets.
Note that so far, none of the gods she’s defeated were beaten in combat, per se.
Note two formidable enemies were bested by drugs: one through inebriation another through withdrawal.

“THOU ART SUMMONED !”

OH ! WHAT should I DO ? WHAAAAAT ? !”

#HardSalami
AY LMAO
I hope White Chain kicks Jagganoth’s ass for ruining her birthday.
But he’s only coming with a gift for the birthday girl! Didn’t realize he wasn’t invited. Just like Maleficent.
Tragic loss of business for that ice-monger really, Jagganoth seems more the type to cut a glacier apart when he wants a cold drink. They say he’s so great but I’d wager he’d never appreciate a real shindig even if it ended with maggots digging the nails out of his rotting flesh.
Proverbs 16:18-19, Solly
I’m really wondering how Solomon’s clothing has withstood all that power… Unless he’s being very careful with how he directs it, despite his rage?
(I promise this question has everything to do with in-comic realism and nothing to do with me being a horny bisexual)
I guess that would be why Jaggy is wearing nothing but his armor, a fashionable pachyderm hat, and a speedo. Less clothing to get destroyed.
Jaggy is going to literally kill six billion demons now
Sword of Want straight through the 4th wall!
I anticipate the entire last book being one huge fight scene, essentially.
tell us how you really feel, SD…
Shit just got real.
I can just HEAR the piano theme kicking up in the background.
Jagganoth, Jadis, Solomon David and Gog-Agog are physically here.
Incubus is watching from Allison’s mind and probably getting ready to make his move.
Matanghi is likely close, with the pursuers who came to the tournament.
Allison has all of her team.

Solomon summons the power of paradox. If he fights long enough, some of the people of the city may escape. But if he fights hard enough to delay Jagganoth, the energy-wash from the fight will erase the fleeing people.
Ultimately, Jagganoth is not the problem here.
Solomon has been composed and calm for all of the tournament. Seeing him go nuts now is a real sign that he is mad beyond belief.
His Power Level Is Over 9000!
Cio, as ever, has made exactly the correct choice in the given situation
BOI
I half expected the final book to start with some other plot thread, likely another Maya-Meti-Incuboy flashback, or suchlike, both to make a kliffhanger more torturous (is this even a word?..) and to remind us that the story is way more complex. Apparently it is not a time; OK than. Current theory that the 5th books isn’t going to be one long battle scene, as soeone above predicted, yet will procede in an utmost calamity leaving Allison badly scathed (percieve the cover) – it was stated at Twitter that Abbdin closed the book earlier than planned, and we are actaully not at the beginning of BoF, but more likely still in the final arc of KoS.
So I guess the war starts disastrously, and after the first defeat our heroes have to do lots of stuff before facing Jagganoth again. Those who live through the upcoming pages, that is.
And also… don’t forget the prophetic words uttered once.
“There was one who came with the broken sun in her brow, and her blood was like molten gold. Once she stole the secret fire of Those Who Came Before from the Red Gods and coveted it, but it ruined her and made her ugly. She was a dirty god and she had a powerful enemy. She could not avail to touch him, so she crouched in his shadow while he became increasingly swollen with his own power and bloodthirst. Instead of growing, she diminished, and grew disheveled and her fire dimmed. But inside, her spark grew more powerful and fierce. She waited for the day her enemy became so tottering under his own monstrous power she could hack at it his ankles and fell him with a single blow.”

Someone is twenty-four pack pissed.
salami dave, head shaved on a monday, chest waxed on a tueday, beard-braid on a wednesday, prepped tourney for thursday, saw combos on friday, took challenge on saturday, there wasn’t even a sunday coz jaggy be craycray, and that was the end of solomon dave, yay?
Oh no he’s going to be Worfed to establish the new antagonist!
Nightmare City – Catastrophe
I just realized this is the *second* home Solomon has lived to see reduced to a scorched crater by a rampaging demiurge.
Technically it’s the first one, but again.
Reeee! As they say.
I think there a word humans use for Solomon David right now. Pissed-off.
You know, jaggy probably chose to have his warhammer out in his other hand for a reason. Maybe he planned to provoke salami with the swordsplosion, and the hammer is for beating him into the earth now that he’s unfocused.
Diamond is hard to cut, but easy to shatter.
He mad
SALAMI-HAME-HA!
For someone who’s supposedly most powerful techniques rely on perfect self control… today is a really trying day for Solomon.
Big D. bout to go super-saiyan.
Are we finally getting the serious series serious punches?
Remember when we thought Solomon was going to crack if White Chain cut him or something.
Ah yes, the age-old ‘unstoppable force versus immovable object’ debate.
This should be quite fun to watch.
I wanna see a ten finger, 10-point strike!
Damn, I’m hyped as FUCK! LET’S GOOOOOO!!!
Nyave holds onto Zaid for reassurance, just as Cio clutches Allison’s skirts.
And we’re off to the races.

“It’s unbelievable!”
Inb4 this is some ‘Twilight’ version of the great battle. Wouldn’t it be surprising if this was just the Witch’s vision?
Ki Rata is based on breathing techniques, isn’t it? Maybe this super scream is part of that? But Jaggy is supposed to be completely invulnerable, according to Mottom. So, the outcome of any fight should be a foregone conclusion. You cannot defeat someone who is invulnerable, unless you find a way to prevent them from doing harm, since harming THEM is utterly impossible.
BTW: have we even seen SD fight with all his power before? I wonder what happens if he goes all out?
There’s always the “go be invulnerable in the interplanetary void” option, if you’re strong enough to punch people up to escape velocity.
There is a possibility that the nails themselves are not invulnerable, and if all nails are destroyed, Jag may lose his imperviouness.
On the other hand, it’s the last volume and the Seven need to go. Even though SD is the least horrible (from what we are let to believe), even he will have to go.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Jag getting a life threatening ass-kicking before he pulls himself together and finally prevail.
I like that you can see the pinions of invincibility in Jagganoth’s great brute body.
Also, according to ork philosophy, he da biggest.
He has no chance against Jagganath, doesn’t he?
There stood the Red Eyed King, before YISUN’s Speaking house. The armaments Pree Aesma had crafted him in her infatuation making him impervious to all worldly and unworldly harm. Yet, as he approached the gates of the speaking house, he saw a small girl, a human of Koss’ hearth. Supposedly, as pitiful and frail as she was, her very presence caused the Red Eyed King to stop momentarily, and turn away, heading in another direction.
Oh don’t be such a baby- homeworlds grow back!
