I love self actualization. Abandon you preformed this one as well as Clairemont did Wolverine, Scott, Renegade, and Dark Phoenix. Thank you for your service.
You say mercifully short, I say rushed and destroyed in an unearned manner.
She went from “everything sucks” to “fuck you, I’ll kick the multiverse’s ass” in less than five in-story minutes. It’s surprisingly cheap for a comic that has normally been pretty good at demonstrating how actions have long-lasting consequences.
I don’t disagree with you- I don’t think she should have even started wallowing in self-pity in the first place. That brief interlude feels surprisingly predictable for a comic that is usually a lot more original.
In my head-cannon I’m gonna kinda gloss over it and assume it was mostly just due to Jadis screwing with Allison’s mind or something.
the dipshit who couldn’t stop bleating like a goat and shitting his pants about how the comic is bad and upsetting and there’s no way out is now bleating like a goat and shitting his pants about how Allison finding a way out ruins his iMmErSiOn, I see
hey LOTGI since you dodged the question earlier can you confirm you’re the one Bob guy or whoever who sobbed his idiot eyes out about how White Chain’s apotheosis “dEsTrOyEd tHe StOrY” too
I will say I am not the person you are referring to in regards to White Chain’s apotheosis. That moment was awesome, and a brilliantly done moment for this comic that I enjoyed. That person complaining about that was not me, and I do not associate with them in any way.
woh-woh-woh, calm down! you really dont need to be like that-i mean, im not quite fond of TLOTGI, but insulting anyone like that is just unnessery-and besides, there needs to be someone to point out prebloms in the story, and frankly, this arc needs that-i like it, but it sure as duck has issues.
On two occasions I have grabbed the wheel, spun it hard, and wrenched the ship of my life unto a different trajectory. There was no long, slow arc of piecemeal realizations that led me to a new understanding. There was just a single event that made me pull back from the wall I had been beating my head against and say, “Why am I doing this?” And then I just…didn’t. And it felt the way that panel looked: the clouds parted, the light shone down, the epiphany hit with staggering force, and the whole world looked different. I felt like I could fly, like I could take on the world with one hand tied behind my back, like I’d just shed a crushing weight that I had been carrying for so long I didn’t realize it was there.
If you’ve never had that, then it’s impossible to understand the last two panels. Maybe your life has been going so well that you’ve never needed an epiphany, in which case I kind of envy you, because the places I’ve been before that moment, sucked. They sucked for years. But if you’ve ever had that sudden thunderbolt of realization that makes everything different…it feels so damn good that it’s almost worth all the shittiness it took to get there.
Ok, that’s fair, but then maybe the issue is the medium. We had more pages of Allison starving herself to death than her coming to grips with this new reality.
What we, the audience, are SEEING- it feels very abrupt. Even if objectively from the character’s perspective it’s not like that at all.
She has realized the vital trait of all tyrantbreakers: ABSOLUTE DEFIANCE.
Defy anything and everything that would impede your goals! Defy men, warriors, priests, armies, nature, the very concept of deity! Spit in the eye of existence itself! All that matters is your own will, and defiance can make your will INVINCIBLE!
…again, I must watch my brother crumble beneath the weight he carries, as last of his order. I know he will return, stronger than ever, as he has done hundreds of times before… but that does nothing to soothe the pain I feel in my soul flame at his departure.
In this smallest of ways, I understand what drives Jagganoth to end the turning of the Wheel, even as I must condemn his disregard for the lives he ruins in his pursuit of the final end of all suffering.
But such is the purpose of my order, the Guarding Knights. We intercept harm and take it upon ourselves to keep it from landing upon others. We are the shield that shelters the weak from the predations of the strong.
I know it won’t go this way but I love it if she got absolutely flattened in the next fight because she decided she had to be dramatic and rip her prosthetics off so now has to fight with one arm while visually impaired and hopping around..
BDE: Big Determinator Energy
This may be the most inspirational thing I’ve ever read.
Deity or not, that blood loss cant be a good for her health.
I remember she collapsed in her last “Im bleeding but fuck it” moment
What is the sound of one leg kicking?
Thunderous.
The gaze of one vengeful eye?
Piercing.
The grip?
Crushing.

Guts would be proud
One eyed, one horned, something something people eater…..
“Flying purple people eater.”
But we only know a non-flying purple person with one horn and one eye, and she gave up eating people a long time ago.
It’s just a scratch, come on
They are rage….brutal…without mercy. But you…you will be worse.
Rip and tear….until it is done.
I wasn’t looking forward to Allison’s “woah is me!”/self-pity stage, but at least it was mercifully short.

Impressive pain tolerance and all but it’s going to be far less dramatically impressive when you start hopping towards the exit…
allison? consider keeping the eye. cutting is markedly easier with depth perception. love u xxx ooo
Incubus: That’s my girl!
Her crown a broken wheel
That’s the biggest f*cking Atum I’ve seen so far!
Time for Violence
Still waiting on those magical energy limbs. Either that or she’s passing out soon
when u wake up and smell that zaza
Riff from 21st Century Schizoid Man plays loudly
Haha yes, Absurdism
Nice sentiment, but I don’t think she has a leg to stand on….I’ll see myself out.
She now has two full halos. Only a hundred or so more, and she will match Jagganoth’s Chakravartin drip.
I know it won’t go this way but I love it if she got absolutely flattened in the next fight because she decided she had to be dramatic and rip her prosthetics off so now has to fight with one arm while visually impaired and hopping around..
I think I’m in love.
