As truth is revealed by fire, the ashen lie of ‘normal’ quickly burns away. As smoke parts as all illusions surely must, we find in the embers that words are tools to enact our will. How shall your will be made manifest?
What is normal too one man is The foulest and most Wretched act to another. To one an act of love to another the most hateful crime imaginable. In my search for the man who slew my family I have seen death, slaughter and genocide in its most sadistic forms. I have seen people die, live, eat kill and sleep. As Meti herself would put it:
“what is normal and what is abnormal is the decision of the man, woman, demon or god standing in front of you. If that man decides your head should become seperate from you neck, then that is normal, the only way to Fight that normal? Is to seperate his head first. The heavenly art is violence, remember this before your opponent does child”
Huh, so he was really the bike all along. You know, I *thought* that guy’s ‘body’ was a bit odd (for a thorn knight, anyway). I really like this “burning wheel” concept, though.
From what I know of Christian mythology, Lucifer was supposed to have been very beautiful, even after his fall. In hindsight I’m not to surprised that KSBD angels can occasionally take on pleasing forms as well.
It really doesnt seem like a cosmetic change and I dont think its got any connections to Christian mythos. I think the implication of what we are seeing here is that, despite their hatred of White Chain, they are actually just like White Chain, having connection to the world, vulnerabilities, and a sense of gender identity that finally had a chance to express itself during a moment of physical and emotional exhaustion, when the facade of conformity could no longer be maintained.
With this scene, now all 3 of the angels we’ve met have turned out to have their own gender identity and sense of self that is repressed and hidden from others.
Shouting all the time, wheeling people to death by the dozen in the space of minutes, and being on fire can be quite draining. My pal Dave from marketing can attest to that; he almost never shows up on time to work, and he’s always drinking cheese coffee to keep up.
The form revealed by Juggernaut in his weakness is not female, nor male. It cannot be. Indeed, note there is no delightful swell of bosom gracing that lithe torso.
Nonetheless, the depths of Juggernaut’s wretched self-hatred is likely driven by the sheer illusion presented by his older, Igneous self. It is easy to see how the angel could grasp toward any method to conceal his fascination with gender. I suspect he turned to the Art first, seeking to disguise, halt, or reverse his feelings. When that failed, he clutched the poison teachings of the Thorns close, as a deeper, more sure disguise.
He seeks any way to avoid exposing his true form, which is doubtless why he strives so to avoid incarnations. His denial of his fascination with gender is what drives him to such excess.
Such fascination is, in his mind, utterly perverse. ANY gender is.
The implacable hatred he displays toward White Chain, and so spitefully inflicted upon poor Delicious, is merely the shadow of the hatred he has for himself.
I can feel pity, but no sympathy. His inner weakness in failing to accept his nature has caused him to inflict spite, woe, and torment upon those around him, and this is a sin too heavy to easily forgive.
Stop projecting your issues on this character. 6 deserves way better characterization and origination than “repressed and self-hating.”
Also, no amount of bosom is required to identify as female or present that way and I can NOT fathom your insistence that 6 can’t identify as female but you belligerently drone on for 5 paragraphs about “he” “he” “he” “himself” “his”
Regardless, I’m so hype to see where the angel plotline is running
6 Juggernaut Star must be, by necessity, a most excellent liar. But worse than the lie others know is a lie, is a lie that is unexpected, and therefore unknown in its’ magnitude.
No. The greatest lies only live in the event horizon of truth, indistinguishable and inseparable from truth, but lies none the less.
My favorite such lie – “you win”
Methinks our favorite Best Boy Juggy is a bit of a bishie and more than a bit of a hypocrite.
Perhaps the whole of the race of Angels could be said to be hypocrites. Big Bird was mega ultra pissed that White Chain took on feminine characteristics while assuming that every Angel is male, so maybe he might not be so opposed to “insipid gender” as much as he claims. And if Metatron 1 is so wise and powerful, why hasn’t he used those numerous wings to fly and stopped people from riding around on his body like a Magic fucking School Bus?
Hrn- I did not anticipate that the Speaker for Thorns would possess a face that was so… human. Especially since we have seen Juggernaut Star without their armour before. Wheels within wheels, such as they are.
Are we about to hear some of Juggernaut Star’s history? I hope we are.
Marvelous, to see such a pure form
It quite does resemble Allison does it not?
does anyone on this website write like a normal person
As far as I can tell? Nah, they don’t.

…legitimately did not see this coming.
Huh.
The wheel in the sky continues burning. Perhaps it will kill someone else tomorrow.
Perhaps, but I think it would be more interesting to see them have a sit down and share a belt all the while chewing the fat.
FUUUUCKKK I LOVE THIS COMIC
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY
Huh, so he was really the bike all along. You know, I *thought* that guy’s ‘body’ was a bit odd (for a thorn knight, anyway). I really like this “burning wheel” concept, though.
And so we see that every Thorn has its rose.
…or something to that effect.
From what I know of Christian mythology, Lucifer was supposed to have been very beautiful, even after his fall. In hindsight I’m not to surprised that KSBD angels can occasionally take on pleasing forms as well.
It seems, though, that the form of the Thorns express their path – or that their path shapes the Thorns…

THE DOOMWHEEL LIVES, YOU FOOOLS DIDN’T BELIEVE ME. THE WHEEL WAS THE MAIN BODY ALL ALONG!!!! HAHAHAHAH!
Are not we all, O Juggernaut?
Shouting all the time, wheeling people to death by the dozen in the space of minutes, and being on fire can be quite draining. My pal Dave from marketing can attest to that; he almost never shows up on time to work, and he’s always drinking cheese coffee to keep up.
Well, well, well.
huh, unexpected!
Oh my
Lovely as always.
She is something to behold

…why are you talking like that?
Juggernaut is part of the transgender Angel club and there is nothing you can say or do to change my mind — I too am a fanfiction author!
And yet you consistently refer to 6 as “he.” curious.
Stop projecting your issues on this character. 6 deserves way better characterization and origination than “repressed and self-hating.”
Also, no amount of bosom is required to identify as female or present that way and I can NOT fathom your insistence that 6 can’t identify as female but you belligerently drone on for 5 paragraphs about “he” “he” “he” “himself” “his”

WELL WELL WELL
BY MY STARS IT BE, TRULY A REVEAL FOR THE AGES
Mind == Blown;
No wonder she went to the thorns.
The best place to hide from the Stormtroopers is behind their boss’ desk.

6 Juggernaut Star must be, by necessity, a most excellent liar. But worse than the lie others know is a lie, is a lie that is unexpected, and therefore unknown in its’ magnitude.
And I did not expect this.
The greatest lie is truth.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HE LIVES IN THE FUCKING MOTORCYCLE WHEEL
THIS COULD NOT GET ANY HYPER
Auntie shows no fear even in the face of certain obliteration
I suppose it stands to reason that if your catchphrase is “what do you think about death”, you’ve probably come to terms with it.
As Auntie’s scars demonstrate, those terms include an installment plan.
Well. Juggernaut Star, you’re looking a little feminine there.
And *human*

O SHIT
“Woe be he that mistakes the rider for the steed.”

Are we about to hear some of Juggernaut Star’s history? I hope we are.
Is it bad that I find Juggernaut cute? It feels like it might be a bad thing.
Naw, we all there homeboy.
It is likely bad for your continued health, but I do not believe there is an ethical or moral aspect to it.
Now, supporting Juggernaut Star’s multiversal genocide plans, that might be a bit of a bad thing. Some of us are still using the Wheel.
OH SHIT!
