Having your hand on your sword or having your sword unsheated like those 2 are doing is a frankly bad idea when facing someone that kills massive amount of people like it’s nothing and does not even care about it.
Though i wonder why he just didn’t killed them both on the spot and instead started talking, maybe he was just bored after his genocide of the day 😀
I swear when we saw flashbacks of the seven (probably now several years back) Jagganoth was a much less impressive, much smaller, fattish-looking guy. Did he… shrink and get out of shape once he got the key, then grow massive and ripped again once he lost that complacency? Or is this a retcon/ art decision?
One theory appears to be that early depictions of Jagganoth are in mental pictures that Allison is forming based on verbal descriptions from Cio. So it’s kind of a game of telephone.
That being said, I think I recall a sequence showing Jagganoth originally being a much smaller guy (roughly the size of the rest of demiurge’s ) and getting larger as time went on, but I don’t recall where in the comic it was and don’t have time to read back through. According to the Wiki, Jagganoth’s original design does appear to have been different. So, on the balance, I suspect that retcon punching may be in action, though I may simply be wrong.
I believe you can see one version of him on Book 1’s cover. The figure at the back with the red helmet that has tusks. If you like, imagine them as the different versions of him across the many spins of the wheel. There might very well be something to that notion.
Yes, you have. And I can see you’ve killed me a thousand different ways, a thousand different times. And I am fine with that, I’ve known I was dead since the first day I crawled. But first, before anything else. Let me bake you some bread and help with those wounds that do not bother you. Because that’s what I do. I bake, I help, I fight and read. As I’m already dead and will be again. It’s something to do as that is what I do.
Why! Why? WHY!? …Didn’t he keep that hair! It is *gorgeous*!
It’s like Fabio started killing people in ever-larger numbers!
It’s like Samson and Lady Godiva perfected their fusion dance!
Fear the Coiffed Man Who Carries No Comb!
I appreciate that the corpses are all seemingly intact. There’s no viscera or stray limbs, the few corpses we can see closely just seem to be oozing… blood? its a bit too orange to just be blood. It gives the impression that simply approaching this monster is enough to simply cause your body to shut down and turn to liquid. The color even gives a faint sense of decay, or the rust color of dried blood.
You could also infer that, as per the rules of the K6BD multiverse, his Atum is causing the world around him to submit to his intent through it’s weight, and the blood is turning into Tang because he’s thirsty… And some asshats punched holes in his waterskin there.
Nasty way to go.
This is a being who makes a skill of turning men into ghosts without significant effort.
It’s not worth the effort though- you lose too much for what you gain.

I’m not sure the sword or lack of sword might’ve spared them the fight- and we do know Jagganoth likes a good soliloquy.
Hobby one does for joy, work one does to gain something. Is this either anymore?
Habit.
“rip to them but i’m built different”
~the second 5 thousand men
Jagganoth and Berserk’s Zodd clearly have been trading fashion tips.
So each of them is worth 2.5 men?
We uh, came to help build your corpse tower, riiight Pale Bolt?
*elbow*
“Today I’ve killed 5 thousand guys and I will killed 5 thousand more”
“Just to be the man who kills ten thousand guys and fall down at your door!”
I am just here to say that Dark Cloud has incredible hair.

I had the same thought and tried to research it.

And I would kill 5 thousand men
And I would kill 5 thousand more
Just to be the man who grinds the wheel to dust
and silence evermore
double it and give it to the next person

You know I believe it may be related to the whole ‘fire god’ thing! Hopefully we get a visual
Even now he seems pulled by his fate as Destroyer of the Seven Part World
Jaggy has got the Starscourge Rahdan thing going on
We’re seeing Starscourge Rahdan, if he didn’t have such pure and unquestioning love for his childhood horse.
It’s the little things that keep us from being the worst possible versions of ourselves

The way you drew Jagg here seriously reminds me of Zodd, and I’m completely okay with that.
“I have killed so much I forgot the face of my mother”
That some heavy line shit right there folks. Damn
It’s why he’s not a Gunslinger.
Is the forgetting the face of his mother a refference to the dark tower?
Im amazed by morale of this 5000 soldiers. You may think after first 1000 others will flee with shameful display
That or the leaders have such ironfisted control that they have no choice but to fight.
He cleans his sword while still dirtying himself on a pile of corpses. Man needs to get his hierarchy of values checked smh
They got him in the water skin. If they get lucky he will die of thirst in a couple of days.
I dunno, the seal looks pretty tight on that. Could also have an internal bladder that is more resistant to puncture.
Get the man his Mum and a loaf of bread.
Weshtery is wise.
