BREAKER OF INFINITIES 1-27 to 1-28
Chapter: 1
“I heard among my travels whispered rumors – spurious, I am almost certain – that nearly all Ki Rata techniques could be doubled in power and intensity by a particularly skilled master. The idea alone is so ludicrous as to be silly. To start, who among the whole wheel would need to harness the use of that scale of destructive power?”
-Musko Reeve, Manual of Hands and Feet
Shouldn’t Solomon have spent the Ki Rata quickie time breaking and shattering all of Jaggie’s swords?
What I truly love about this scene is what Mottom and Mammon must be thinking a few yards off to the left.
“Wow, we thought we were real hot shit for a couple seconds there.”
Salami Dave is DONE fucking around.
Solomon does indeed have no fucks left to give.
Fun fact: in Taoism, “ten thousand” is shorthand for infinity.
Jagganoth: “How did you know I was deathly allergic to tickling!?”
… Meanwhile, back at Happy Fun Camp, Cio teaches White Chain how to decorate a cake with a frosting bag.
Well, looks like the armor’s gone.
Oof, right in the ol’ Junkanoth.
I see he avoided the groin. Taking the high road, eh Solly?
That’s a hell of a Salami slappin’.
All these people talking about how salami dave didn’t take a nut shot. Bold of you to assume that the Red God has nuts
you know, I’m sure that move would reduce another reasonably powerful demiurge to pulp.
unfortunately, so far as we know, jag isn’t reasonably powerful: he’s literally impervious to all physical harm.
I hope this inconveniences him though! it’s too cool to do absolutely nothing.
(say, anybody got a crowbar, nail-puller, somethin like that?)
Couple of questions:
Did Solomon freeze time within frozentime, shadow clean himself 10k times, and have his clones strike as one? Or did he freeze time within frozen time and accelerate himself to the point that he struck 10k times within a nanosecond?
Either way, Hit from DBS is jealous.
* frozen time
*clone
NOW THATS A LOT OF DAMAGE!
No crotch shots I see. Even in the depths of his rage, Solomon still values his ideas of fair play and noble combat over the truth of the blade that Incubus learned.
Gotta admit, I’m a little bummed that Big Red didn’t get punched in the dick.
I think my manhood twitched. I’ve not felt such stirrings in so long. The Red City was but virginal then.
And now the city is … yes, well.
Everyone seems to be missing the main point here. Since Jagganoth is impervious to physical damage, the aim cannot be to damage him in the normal way. The aim is to disorient him enough so that the other demiurges can permanently banish him beyond the Wheel. This was mentioned earlier as the punishment for breaking the Pact.
This explains why Solomon David did not go for a nut shot. There is no point. Jagganoth has that most remarkable of accoutrements: literally invulnerable nuts. This makes him truly a god.
Really, I’m surprised Solomon didn’t just go for Jagganoth’s weapons via time stop right out of the gate. Lame for the plot, I guess. Then again, there’s probably something that keeps him from just stopping time willy nilly; you’d expect Jagganoth is actually prepared to deal with Solomon and still be able to kill things.
I think that any of the demiurges can use their key to counteract such time shenanigans if they can react in time so to use this technique on someone Like Jagganoth would be unfeasable unless they are stunned by lets say, being falcon punched in the back of the head.
I would suspect Solomon was waiting for such an opening.
Who indeed.
Help! Allison is in terrible danger: she is on the brink of becoming as minor a character as Zed. I’m beginning to forget the details of her and her team’s motivations. If she ends up giving the key to someone else, like that lowlife Frodo trying to palm off the Ring on Galadriel, well… who could blame her.
Come the day that Allison understands her own motivations and make a free choice, the comic will be over. Seriously. Everything to date has been Allison doing what she thinks she _has_ to.
By reference to the all-seeing OCT of Jadis, I make this prediction: Allison will ultimately give up power, and possibly even her key. The Rising King will not become the new Ruling King. The Disneyesque endings where the new King rules all to peace aren’t compatible with the OCT background. Don’t ya know there’s (still) a war on?
Way back, Himself said to Allison: “When they offer you the throne, think of Me; think of the poor Devil”. I think, when the time comes, she’ll honour that promise, but in a twisted way. She’ll think of Himself locked in his box and realise what it costs to take power. And she’ll decline.
Why not give the key to Himself? 🙂
I gottaa admit, dave has an incredible huge ammount of attention span, i do 10 punches and im already forgetting why i started doing punches
He likely has a dead citizen per punch to keep his memory keen on why he keeps punching.
I loled hard, thx mr paladin
as the prophet Disturbed did once say:
You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of
Ten thousand fists in the air
I came here expecting to see a lot of “Za Warudo” and “Muda” but it was mostly people heaping respect on Solomon David for avoiding Jagganoth’s tender spots. Surprising, to be sure, but welcome.
Myself, I find that instant death will do in a pinch if there’s nothing better available but when I’m at home nothing beats freshly ground beings.
