Not unlikely. I have seen it before. Look at some of the more angelic angels from when White Chain had been told of truths and first met Juggernaut Star. One had a wheel like head full of eyes above a lionine body. Two parts.

I mean, the evidence is all there. When he first announced his name, guess who else was in the same panel? The wheels. And as I recall, every time he speaks afterward, the wheels are close by. He is defeated by Maya in one Cut, but the wheel is still there, growling in the Angel’s own voice. And note how his true form looks like a skeleton… there are a number of other skeletons on the motorcycle. I think that the “rider” is in fact just a more powerful version of the other skeletons, chosen as the avatar of the real 6 Juggernaut Star, who is the motorcycle! I think the other skeletons are there to replace the master skeleton in case it gets destroyed, like it just did!
“As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change direction as the creatures went. Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.
“When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose. Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels…”
I find the commingling of Ezekiel and other interpretations of angels (many-winged seraphim, et al) with the Hindi and Aryan elements in this to be absolutely delicious.
The art is artful, but the things being represented are magnificently created as well!
Thought #1: How gratifying it is to see that Mathangi has far surpassed her Master in the art of Auntie-and-Niece Harmonization!
Thought #2: “Woe be he who mistakes the rider for the steed.” You splashed it in the alt.txt for all to see, you magnificent bastard, but I never suspected the truth. Of COURSE 6 Chain’s true form in here would be a terrible flaming wheel, ringed all about with eyes–he is, after all, an angel that cleaves to precedent.
Thought #3: “Really, 6JSStU? Do you really want to endanger the family and THREATEN THE WINE-JUG of the woman who just divided your exploding decoy body, using a sword that might not even technically *be?* Will you perform better now that you’re not burdened with *limbs?* Just go home.”

DO NOT MISTAKE THE RIDER FOR THE STEED
What happened to her sandals?????
She lost one sandal (left foot, see the previous page).
I think Thelolpatrol was referring to the young girl- Maya grabbed her so quick she got pulled right out of her shoes!
Blew her clean out of her shoes.
The Wheel of the Star versus the Maybe Swordswoman. Can the steed succeed where the rider has failed?
Woe betide him who mistakes the steed for the rider.
is he literally the WHEEL
brum brum
…
I should have seen this coming.
“Do not mistake the rider for the steed.” We were told this long ago.
I did not see this coming, and it is wonderful.
Ohhhh. Now I get it.
And though that Rider be cast down, his greathelm clove in twain, yet from the earth his Steed doth rise, and wracks his foes with pain.
It was the steed Maya cut in half, though.
Important to recall: the purpose of the steed is to bear the rider where the rider would find it inconvenient to travel alone.
Bear your fleas well, my lovelies, for life is fleeting; bad reviews are eternal.
Hansa and Prim, I think you have the right of it, stranger.
The eyes on the wheel remind me today of those of The Shape Shifting Master of Darkness.
It will sorely regret rolling over her jug of wine
I admire juggernaut Star for literally being one with its weapon
What if 6 Juggernaut Star is actually the wheels, and the humanoid Angel shape was the weapon…?

Somehow I think that bit about the Rider and the Steed from the alt-text on 6 Juggernaut’s introduction may be relevant.
The circle, pure, infertile.
Fails to present logic in a vacuum,
but can still have great effect on application.
The wheels had also a size, and a height, and a dreadful appearance: and the whole body was full of eyes round about all the four.
– Ezekiel 1:18
If juggernaut star is smart, he’ll just call it a draw and roll out of there.
Big Wheel keep on turnin’
Juggernaut keep on burning’
Now Maya sounds like Tina Turner to me. Thanks a lot.
You’re welcome! 😀
Also, the stone in Meti’s forehead turned red? I wonder what that could mean. Will have to check if it’s happened before.
So the mount that rides the jockey awakens
No, don’t run over the wine
Ah, so you saw how quickly that blade came out!
YES
AND HE SHALL RIDE
AND IN HIS WAKE – BLOOD AND TEARS

Ah, much better than my tiny little excerpt.
I find the commingling of Ezekiel and other interpretations of angels (many-winged seraphim, et al) with the Hindi and Aryan elements in this to be absolutely delicious.
The art is artful, but the things being represented are magnificently created as well!
Interestingly the angels mentioned in the verse above are referred to as Thrones.
The wheel is the appropriate form for an angel named Juggernaut.

better be careful not to get a HRRRNia
Oh that is clever.
