Woooo teamwork and all but I thought she was actually going to do something herself. Instead she took power from someone else, to make a weapon to give to someone else, while riding in the back of sentient being who does not actually need a rider.
Eh, I’m willing to give some credit here, Jadis provides the raw power, Mottom crafts it into a tool and Solomon is meant to use it. Technically earlier Mammon provided a distraction allowing Solomon to momentarily incapacitate Jagganoth and he could only do this because Mottom aimed him (he’s borderline blind).
Having said that the real question now is what will go wrong. Is this not going to be enough? Is Incubus going to interfere, or use the situation to launch some other operation? Thorns will come? They succeed at binding Jaggy but it still reignites the war since they can’t agree what to do with his power or Gog-Agog takes this opportunity to just devour him whole and absorb his key? So many possibilities…
She forged the raw energy of a spell into a precise and powerful tool that she put into the hands of the strongest brute strength fighter they have. No amount of brute damage from a spell or incineration could equal what he can do via precision execution of that kind of power, and she knew it.
Nobody else could have turned the power into a tool like she did, or probably have thought to. Not to mention that she came up with this idea when the alternative was floating there while Solomon hopefully finished him.
I get the sentiment of wanting to see her do some direct damage, but this is far from a lack of teamwork.
The squad is pulling of a chain attack of epic proportions, Solomon passes the ball to Incubus and shouts “Cast him into the void, destroy him!” and Incubus smirks and says “No..”
Meanwhile Gog-Agog missed the button prompt for participating and the big bad boss survives with 1hp and the team wipes.
I am allow wondering just how much time is passing for Solomon inside his double bubble of time. Hours? Years? Millennia?
With a single stoppage, he did about a minute of carnage in, oh, let’s call it a millisecond. Rough it out to 100,000x in slowdown.
With another slowdown inside that, makes it 10 Billion.
So I’d say at least 30 seconds have past in normal time, and 300 Billion seconds for Salami… or about ten thousand years if some sustained, insane power output
Somehow I don’t think every Solomon we see is always part of a linear progression. I get the impression it’s closer to a sort of soul projection, like the dozens of Jagganoths with bows or the two extra Mottoms here.
They are going to teleport Jagganoth outside of the ‘corpse reality’ which will allow Jagganoth to start destroying the whole thing from ‘outside’ the dimension.
I think her “Imprisonment” is more meant to contain her form. She saw the wheel in its entirety, a sight that cannot be contained even by one of the seven. Should she break free from the glas that contains her, she might just rot away to nothingness in an instant.
There’s a disturbing absence of Gog-Agog thus far (aside from seeing her get impaled a little, I mean). I don’t like the idea of Incubus being out of frame for too long either.
The problem with there being 6 gods who I wouldn’t turn my back on is that I only have one back.
Indeed. There are many, many ways in which any of this can go wrong.
And let us not forget Maya is to get involved as well. That makes 8 demiurges in play, or close enough
Maya’s a whole other frightening factor and I don’t know enough about her to trust her timing in this matter. Exciting scenario though, like hurling spanners into complex, volatile machinery.
Now THIS, right here, is the kind of problem solving I like to see.
Like the mighty tortoise I shall flip on to my back so that I am in the best position to deal with anything that comes my way.
Jadis’s Key color is the bright blue, so we can see her magic get transfered tov Mottom who shapes it and sends it to Solomon David, where his Key color momentarily flashes slight blue.
I think Solomon’s Facial expression is meant to be reminiscent of Nio, Kongorikishi and Vajrapani dharma protectors.
The bodyguards of the Buddha who were meant to represent the power of the buddha and the capacity to protect enlightenment and sapient beings with physical force.
Notably these figures themselves are not usually considered to be enlightened beings themselves.

He says, to someone he could not reach without the internet, reading a comic he could not read without the internet.

Stopping time won’t stop the tide from coming in
The sun upon the surface, the blood beneath the skin
If you don’t love me now, you’ll never love me again

Incubus, “No.”
Solomon, “ISILDUUUUUR!”
This is going to be particularly funny when he no-sells it.
Or, at least, comes out of it only mildly inconvenienced.
If by “funny”, you mean “dull”, I concur.
HOLU SHIBARI SKILLS ACTIVATE
Those wrinkles.. they’re from his very scrunched up brow right..? Not because he ages when he uses the full extent of Ki Data?

Might be some wrinkles after this.

Anyone who predicted white chain would join the combat, is technically correct.
The best kind of correct
It was about time for some teamup attacks.
Epic. Is this the move White Chain is named after?
Meanwhile Incubus is on the side lines eyeing his monkey wrench.
They probably used this move on Zoss…

Oh my goodness but Crone-Mottom just looks so genuinely happy for this page and the previous.
Like she’s spent a very long time dreading this exact scenario and has finally looped around to “Well, screw it, we doin this right”
We also don’t have Jadis’ title card, right? What if she breaks free and deals the true final blow

Oh, how to solve such a dangerous and lethal conundrum?
I know!
Just lie down, flat on your back! That way, you see the sword coming.
Now THIS, right here, is the kind of problem solving I like to see.
Like the mighty tortoise I shall flip on to my back so that I am in the best position to deal with anything that comes my way.
That’s not actually your problem. Having more backs would exasperate the situation. The problem is that you only have one front.
her old face in the first panel is so funny she looks like shes having a great time
I would love to see this animated by Don Bluth.
Jadis’s Key color is the bright blue, so we can see her magic get transfered tov Mottom who shapes it and sends it to Solomon David, where his Key color momentarily flashes slight blue.
“Excuse me jagganoth but do you understand yet that you are not welcome here, sir?”
“ >:c “
-Solomon David
Too bad that’s only four demiurges working together, and Jaggy is worth six.
Solomon’s expression reminds me of Batman. That can’t be good for Jagganoth…
I think Solomon’s Facial expression is meant to be reminiscent of Nio, Kongorikishi and Vajrapani dharma protectors.

Mottom in the previous page was clearly meant to be reminiscent of both the Triple Goddess of Greek mythology and the Scandinavian Norns.
It kind of feels as if Abbadon is hinting at what the Demiurges might have become if they hadn’t been consumed by Want.
This is going to be so epic when Jaggs no sells this entire thing.
Gog’s not gonna join in and screw them.
