KING OF SWORDS 174-177 (FINALE)
Chapter: 10
Thanks for reading!
These are the final pages of King of Swords. We’ll take a 1 week break to prepare and return Friday 10/2 Tues 10/6 with the final book of Kill Six Billion Demons, Breaker of Infinities.
This book was a blast to draw and I hope you’ve enjoyed it, I’ve learned a lot and hope to give it my all with Book 5. See you then!
-Abbadon
It is amazing to see everyone else look up in either fear or disbelief while Alison is looking down at her hands with her feeble halo, simply thinking “Wait, I did that?!”
Every day slowly stumbling towards royalty.
That’s… just his entrance… nuclear explosions are how he teleports. Whelp.
I once knew a society of people in the transportation business that complained to Jagganoth about the fact that his chosen method of transportation involves nuking both the start and destination of every journey. However, their complaints stopped shortly after he responded with a personal visit, so I can only assume that their arguments were not very persuasive.
I cannot help but think about the similarities or connections between 6 Juggernaut Star and Jagganoth.
Jagganoth obtained 30 angel feathers to drive into his flesh. Juggernaut Star has mangled wings and doesn’t display feathers.
To my recollection, Abbadon has stated that both Juggernaut Star and Jagganoth ‘know more about the true nature of the universe’ and both are pissed about it and want to destroy it.
The whole flame effects they have going for them, hiding their face behind a mask, interrupting this tournament by using Division to appear smack dab in the middle of the arena…
Although I might be misremembering details.
> Jagganoth obtained 30 angel feathers to drive into his flesh. Juggernaut Star has mangled wings and doesn’t display feathers.
Oh my, that’s an exellent observation, how could I miss this point myself? Jagganoth’sconnection with Thorns seemed obvious for years, yet I failed to place this particular detail in the puzzle. Seems rather likely.
Fucccck yeah what an ending!! I can’t wait for what happens next
If Jagganoth’s swords swing can casually nuke a colosseum, that may or may not have been protected by Solomon’s power as seen in page 9-108, then I am quite interested in what effect his bow and arrows will have.
Even more interesting is if his sword is made to cause this much destructive power then he has another 5 likely equally special swords as this opening sword’s only differing trait to the other is that its currently drawn.
Dude you are a god! I’m so excited to see what comes, but a little saddened at the thought of it all ending. I’ve read your work for so long now! haha and you always updated speedily and just destroyed expectation after expectation. Wish it could go on for a few more years!!!
On the one hand I am crestfallen that this absolutely awesome comic is going to end but on the other hand what an end to this chapter.
Tearing your way through reality with a blast that nukes every creature in proximity and flattens a good part of the city, That is one hell of an entrance.
On the bright side, Jagganoth only has six arrows. So….
I count eight arrow shafts. And his bow looks like a composite model, too…
We never got to see Solomon do the serious series serious punches, so this is a good chance.
I wonder how many Swords Master Jagnoth has in his back…
Could it be that he is the Ten of Swords? As demonstrated by Zoss during his most recent visitation?
Jaggy is looking rather terrifyingly like Surtr at this point.
idc what anyone says not only is he an absolute tank Jagganoth is fucking HOT. like smoking…or maybe that’s the smoke of Rayuba being obliterated instantaneously. Either way that’s a glorious jockstrap he’s wearing.
The reality of warfare is that when a guy’s got a sword that causes nuclear blasts, the size and makeup of your armies are pretty irrelevant.
Well Abadon hear it from me first: I like big books and I cannot lie. Give us a thick chapter before you let the story die
Witness the Pankratosword.
Would it be in bad taste if I screamed incoherently while running in the opposite direction until my vocal cords shredded and legs failed me?
The lactic acid and adrenaline from all that running and screaming make the meet quite sour. Very bad taste indeed.
3 thoughts:
1. Allison looks amazing with her hair down like that.
2. Solomon’s Circle of Power building might have saved the city itself from this devastation. Audience was unlucky though.
3. I don’t know that giants can fight normal-sized people all that well, different engagement zones of weaponry and all that. Giant has to be swinging their close combat weapons around their feet, could be easy to cut your own toes off doing that.
What a nice hammer…
If one wanted to create a weapon for the purpose of shattering a diamond, it would be an excellent form.
And it could be convenient if by chance a parallelepiped needed some attention, too.
when is the physical copy of this book coming out?
The Red God possess both prodigious size and nightmarish strength; this will be a massacre.
By the end of next book he’ll have his share of Inordinate Exsanguination.
I’m way too in love with the fact that, despite his being a demigod of unimaginable strength, his warhammer was drawn with realistic proportions rather than as an ugly Warcraft/Warhammer chunk of steel.
Huh. Is it me or is Solomon actually _crying_?
For all we gave him crap, he maybe did care, in his twisted ways, after all.
Also, Alison might have managed to protect herself and those behind her… but note part of that might simply have been aided by the fact that she was behind two other demiurges who also facetanked some of that blast.
Now the question arises: do the three (four if Gogagog has a self left standing somewhere in all this) with keys try to stand their ground, or do they withdraw to fight another day?
Mortal logic dictates a fight here and now is not ideal for any of the quartet.
But since when did Kings follow mortal logic?
I think fleeing here would destroy Solomon, god of pride, more surely than Jagganoth could.
More like fleeing would let Rayuba scourged. AGAIN.
Thank you, Master!
This was amazing book to live through.
Jaggy certainly knows how to make an entrance.
DOUCHE CHIIIILLLLL
