Hmm… Big Birds are a handy way to travel in places like this, if you can afford it. They sure are a lot of work though, and not everyplace allows them, for obvious reasons. Remember, when you are down on the streets watch where you step and don’t linger too long under a roosting post 😉
(OOC) ~ This scene reminds me of walking through Tokyo, or really any large city in Japan. Where else can you find skyrise apartment buildings festooned with balconies of laundry, nestled between temples, random ancient stone statues, rice-bowl-restaurants, endless levels of shops, and ultra-modern office buildings, while cars and foot traffic carreen along every open space? I see no signs of depravity here, as some have said. I see the ultimate in city life.

So, WHERE can a sorority girl, pursued by a squad of mercenaries because of a price on her head in excess of 258 times her weight in black glass, park her stolen flying junk and not turn a single head? This place.
I don’t if I’ve ever said this before, but I really, *really* like the sort of pseudo-eastern style of all the urban areas and most of the kingdoms we’ve seen so far. They’re like cyberpunk, sans the cyber. Like, divinitypunk
It’s probably been remarked on a lot, but this is my first comment so bear with me.
I love the sense of insane scale of these cityscapes. The prosaic use of dead gods as building material tell us a lot about the world while also providing strong grounding for the story’s fantastic elements, but more than that it triggers the sense of unease at being in a place not made for humans even more than the worst nightmares of the early futurists, who wanted to make miles-tall cities for efficient logistics without realizing people would hate living in such places.
One of the gods was not dead, but had merely took a short nap and awoke to find a thriving restaurant had been installed on their head. Not wanting to cause a fuss, it continues to play dead. What are the empires of mortals to the patience of the divine?
Surely it is significant that all of the god statues (or are they god remnants?) have their eyes closed.
At the risk of being That Guy: it’s spelled “Whoa.”
Which is the only proper reaction for I.
And they all say
hallelujah
yodel eh hee hoo

Seriously man, this is above and beyond.

What happens when the Gods wake up?
You glorious madman!

AWESOME!
Let’s go…!
What is Allison looking at…?
Ahem…they’re parked legally. Otherwise, why is there a bollard on the side of the building?
Please tell me those birds are trained to use the facilities…
Has anyone found Waldo yet?

OK, here you go.

Oh no I love it.

This totally badass place.
This actually looks like a decent place to live for a change. Nice. Also this scenes like this are absurd and amazing. Thank you.

So, you know, nicely done.
Can’t believe I’ve already reached the end so far of this comic. Amazing work.
I wonder how sturdy a building material a dead god is. Stronger than steel?
One of the gods was not dead, but had merely took a short nap and awoke to find a thriving restaurant had been installed on their head. Not wanting to cause a fuss, it continues to play dead. What are the empires of mortals to the patience of the divine?
I would immediately have demanded offerings of bean buns and ramen, but that’s just me.
GORGEOUS! I love your style for this comic.
Here, at the end of the world, are we exposed to it once again.
When you read this, it is again and ever the end of the world. But it may no longer be the end of this one.

This is beyond the human comprehension of beauty.
