I don’t think Gog is partularily invested in winning here.
They are the worm in the core, he unkillavle multitude. What harm is anozher turn of the wheel to them?
Like reveal that they have *already* secretly infested all the other Demiurges with themselves and we just looking for a reasonable point at which to off ’em since they have spent *ages* playing stupid so they would underestimate them?
I could 100% see this. “Man that looks hard. That looks impossible. Whoever could actually do that must be really super great. I wish I could be whoever is actually able to pull that off.”
Followed by:
*dink* *red god falls apart*
Lethargic “wow, you’re so cool” from Gog to herself.
From the arena, Gog is her normal cheery self. “Get your very own Gogagog worm infestation! On sale now!”
Perhaps she is still broadcasting the fight, so that everyone across the Wheel is aware of Allison’s heroism, perfectly set up for the inevitable Spirit Bomb moment-
Is Jadis immune? In seem to remember her laying a temporary smackdown on Ole Wriggly a little while ago. I don’t think she appreciated Gog’s cheek-smooshing bearhug, even through dat ice.
I mean, Inky is pretty annoying, but he’s a mere peacock feather compared to the Beast. I don’t think we have reached peak annoying yet.
I’m half expecting David to megapunch Gog right into the binding hole. Gog’s gotta be the best and controlling and restraining people, overpowering their will, etc.
Battle is won and David’s gonna find it so satisfying to put his fist through Gog and into Jag. Heck, he’ll probably stop/slow time but do it at leisure speed just to make the feeling last.
I think that is EXACTLY what she’s doing here, and Solomon damn well knows it. They’re both know her game, and they don’t need to say it out loud. She knows HE knows he is woefully outmatched, that Gog is unscathed, that if anyone survives they’ll probably be scavenged by the Worm.
Gog: Let everyone die of Jagging, or let everyone live as worms. What’ll it be, big guy [winks so salaciously that it’s more funny than sexy]

Wormy Solomon is another appalling thought :-/ He’s bad enough as a lawful neutral without liquidising his morals.
Actually, I don’t see what worminess gains him here. It doesn’t obviously help him beat J. If he just wants personal survival, he can leave already, porting out or just diving off the edge of the island. But he’s too proud for that, of course.
If I don’t eat the worm, there’s a 99% chance we lose and all die. There’s a 1% chance we win, and then Gog swoops in and worms the survivors.
If I do eat the worm now, there’s at least some chance that Gog-a-lami fusion has the horsepower to win. And maybe it’s enough incentive to get Gog to help. There’s at least a chance the others will be strong enough to defeat Gog-a-lami after Jag is gone, as Gog-a-lami will presumably be taking damage too.
So… 99% chance of total oblivion and 1% chance of worm-dom? Or ?? Percent chance of winning, ??% chance of not-worm-dom.
As is typical in life, there are no actual numbers to compare, so the question is – is this situation bad enough to warrant the risk of Gog-a-lami?
Ki rata may not be right for you.
If your Ring of Power lasts more than 30 panels, consult a doctor immediately.
Side effects include beatd shrinkage; spontaneous embodiment of angelic adversaries; multiverse omincide; and untimely comments by useless allies.
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a single facial expression that quite so clearly conveys “Now would be an optimum moment to pull your bloody finger out” as Solomon’s does here.
The dragon rolled over. “Look!” he said. “What do you say to that?” “Dazzlingly marvelous! Perfect! Flawless! Staggering!” exclaimed Bilbo aloud, but what he thought inside was: “Old fool! Why, there is a large patch in the hollow of his left breast as bare as a snail out of its shell!”
What if… What if this isn’t the final enemy? What if the final enemy has been lurking in the background this whole time and is just waiting to worm herself into the exhausted demiurges and claim all the keys for herself?
goddamn
Goddamn gogagog! What’s she doing? Where’s the “all manner of beasts???!” Prob waiting to do the cleanup like the worm she is?
Yyyyyyeah, I can’t say Gog looks like she’s gonna be the heroic trump card that saves the day.
“suRe loOks tougH, huh? i thInk i wannA havE his jUIce anD drink it tOo, caUse you kNow wHat hE diD not dO? puNch Me”
you are a demiurge and you haven’t done anything yet!
I don’t think Gog is partularily invested in winning here.

Personally, I’m waiting for Gog to do something suddenly powerful. Pull some ace out of her sleeve.
Like reveal that they have *already* secretly infested all the other Demiurges with themselves and we just looking for a reasonable point at which to off ’em since they have spent *ages* playing stupid so they would underestimate them?
Hope you’re right. One worm in one ear (even a BIIIIIIG ear) could be a seriously distracting.
I could 100% see this. “Man that looks hard. That looks impossible. Whoever could actually do that must be really super great. I wish I could be whoever is actually able to pull that off.”

Gog-Agog Wins By Doing Absolutely Nothing
Joker’s wild, but all you have are five 2s to go with it.
Perhaps she is still broadcasting the fight, so that everyone across the Wheel is aware of Allison’s heroism, perfectly set up for the inevitable Spirit Bomb moment-
“My job here is done.”
“But you didn’t do anything.”
*flap*
You’ve misprinted.
It’s gogdamn.
Hahahahaha
A single point of light, shining brighter than the sun…
Solomon is certainly not amused by the Devourer’s antics.
Hard to say which annoys Solomon more. the inanity, the overly familiar hand on the shoulder, or the tinny tinkle right in his lughole.
David’s face is nothing but, “Could you not?”
Last time I saw a Demiurge this annoyed, Cio was interrupting Om’s “Perish” spell while they were fleeing her palace.
I’m sure it requires more willpower than Solomon has ever summoned before to resist the urge to backhand Gog-Agog right now
if only because she may yet prove beneficial in the fight…
Gog’s main power is super annoyance. Nobody is immune to it except Jadis.
Is Jadis immune? In seem to remember her laying a temporary smackdown on Ole Wriggly a little while ago. I don’t think she appreciated Gog’s cheek-smooshing bearhug, even through dat ice.
I mean, Inky is pretty annoying, but he’s a mere peacock feather compared to the Beast. I don’t think we have reached peak annoying yet.
I was working on that face!
He’s found it helps keep his rage at super-stellar temperatures.
I’m half expecting David to megapunch Gog right into the binding hole. Gog’s gotta be the best and controlling and restraining people, overpowering their will, etc.
Battle is won and David’s gonna find it so satisfying to put his fist through Gog and into Jag. Heck, he’ll probably stop/slow time but do it at leisure speed just to make the feeling last.
is gog going to offer solomon a worm?
man, that would be a twist
Nah, clearly what Solomon needs is some ambition to actually do something other than sit around and play with his perfect stagnant empire.
He needs to have his flame lit by Incubus.
That is an appalling thought!
I think that is EXACTLY what she’s doing here, and Solomon damn well knows it. They’re both know her game, and they don’t need to say it out loud. She knows HE knows he is woefully outmatched, that Gog is unscathed, that if anyone survives they’ll probably be scavenged by the Worm.
Gog: Let everyone die of Jagging, or let everyone live as worms. What’ll it be, big guy [winks so salaciously that it’s more funny than sexy]
Wormy Solomon is another appalling thought :-/ He’s bad enough as a lawful neutral without liquidising his morals.
Actually, I don’t see what worminess gains him here. It doesn’t obviously help him beat J. If he just wants personal survival, he can leave already, porting out or just diving off the edge of the island. But he’s too proud for that, of course.
Gog-Agog is just along for the ride
Mental calculations:
If I don’t eat the worm, there’s a 99% chance we lose and all die. There’s a 1% chance we win, and then Gog swoops in and worms the survivors.
If I do eat the worm now, there’s at least some chance that Gog-a-lami fusion has the horsepower to win. And maybe it’s enough incentive to get Gog to help. There’s at least a chance the others will be strong enough to defeat Gog-a-lami after Jag is gone, as Gog-a-lami will presumably be taking damage too.
So… 99% chance of total oblivion and 1% chance of worm-dom? Or ?? Percent chance of winning, ??% chance of not-worm-dom.
As is typical in life, there are no actual numbers to compare, so the question is – is this situation bad enough to warrant the risk of Gog-a-lami?
You know, I am reminded of a certain saying.
The bigger they are…
…the harder they hit.
…the bigger their socks.
*suggestive eyebrow wiggles*
…the more expensive the clothes
…the less prepared you are to handle their Jaggahog.
That’s how the saying goes, right?
…the more their volume increase in comparison to their surface area
I declare this a winner ! XD
The more teeth you’re missing after the beating you get?
…the larger they are
….the huger they are…
…the enormouser they are…
gog-agog: h-
salami dave: were it not for the extinction event currently happening i would have slaughtered you
She’s gonna ask if she can do the thing.
Oh Gog of the Solomon please tell us your mighty wisdom
The maybe binding.
Ooooh. so suspense.
Shit, hope is so powerful it destroyed the alt text.
Gog-Agog doesn’t care because Gog-Agog can’t die.
Gog-Agog! There she is!
Hrmm… Go now and speed well! Bring on the Black Arrow, reckon?
“Old fool! Why, there is a large patch in the hollow of his left breast as bare as a snail out of its shell!”
Or craft a new one out of worms, perchance
I too immediately thought of Smaug. Or is it Smog? Allison comes from L.A. after all.
I wonder if it’s false hope, as a reversal of expectations?
Pree Gog-agog, this really is not the time for tomfoolery or clownery of any sort

Perhaps Gog is a student of this philosophy.
That’s so Gog Agog
Only on Disney channel!
Solomon’s beard continues to get smaller and smaller, I assume his power reserve is running out.

Aspected Chaos looks like an odd little grey grasshopper on the second panel.
It’s weirdly cute.
That second panel is actually really good. The composition is just *chefs kiss*
The first panel is like the omniverse’s weirdest sorority pic!
Check out the major league side-eye from Solly, look out Gog!
The dragon rolled over. “Look!” he said. “What do you say to that?” “Dazzlingly marvelous! Perfect! Flawless! Staggering!” exclaimed Bilbo aloud, but what he thought inside was: “Old fool! Why, there is a large patch in the hollow of his left breast as bare as a snail out of its shell!”
Oh my, we are not lost yet!
Well, I am
What if… What if this isn’t the final enemy? What if the final enemy has been lurking in the background this whole time and is just waiting to worm herself into the exhausted demiurges and claim all the keys for herself?
