The glare should be grapefruit. All colors that have grown familiar should present as ominous, but we do not recognize this one, and it is more fearful than any other. Is there any speck of the rainbow that has not been bloodied with our horrible anxieties?
I think I’ve heard from folk brave enough to approach the Court of Worms in Charnel that sometimes the walls themselves sing. I fully believe that Gog-Agog will make anything sing, be they walls or giant heads, if it works for The Bit.
In brief, often. Very often.
Should be noted that you are taking the embodied sin of Envy at her word as to her power level.
But her conversation with Allison explained that at the start of Metatron’s cycles, Gog was initially the Destroyer who would wipe the Wheel clean after the Successor rose, not Jagganoth, but then she stopped putting in effort after a few thousand cycles passed and she still couldn’t attain true Royalty. This is her getting back in the game.
But see, amid the mimic rout,
A crawling shape intrude!
A blood-red thing that writhes from out
The scenic solitude!
It writhes!—it writhes!—with mortal pangs
The mimes become its food,
And seraphs sob at vermin fangs
In human gore imbued.
Out, out, are all the lights, out all
And over each quivering form
The curtain, a final pull
Comes down with the rush of a storm.
And the angels, all pallid and wan
Uprising, unveiling, affirm
That this play is indeed the tragedy, “Man”-
And its hero the Conqueror Worm.
Worms, Worms, Worms have its laws
Worms, Worms, an effect and a cause
The curtain falls, the Worm Queen calls,
Beware of the Beast, for here come the claws.
Death, Death, Death in the fog!
Bones, flesh, behold Gog-Agog!
Blood magic storm will clash with the worm
Doom, doom, all sins the Queen will consume!
Lust! Lust! Lust in the air!
Envy strikes, see, life is unfair!
Many who lust will answer the call,
But Envy’s call with call to us all!
Those who are born with fairness of face,
Those who lust for leather and lace
Still get outnumbered by every mind
Who envies that which another does find.
Gog having a little Akira moment, I see…
Ogam’s beard and sideburns!
Ogam becomes Gog-am.
THAT FLASH ON LAST PANEL IS JAGGA BREAKING OUT OF PRISON!
Yes, I can see him in Schoolboy’s clothes, Gibson SG in hand, riffing away and singing:
JAAAAAAAAAAAAILBRAKE!
And Merkin. Dont forget about the Merkin
This – that was my 100% first reaction.
She did something similar in the first fight with Jagganoth too. At least it looks like those two soldiers in panel 3 will be okay? Maybe?
well, looks like they’re gonna have to postpone throne’s olympic games again this year
She probably watched the movie. 🙂
First! First, haha
God shit fuck

Gods, I wish I could “like” comments on this board.
No you don’t, the Twitterification of all websites is something to be feared
Also hi, just read through this whole comic like a month ago and have been catching up since
Hi to you as well! I found your socks! (I’m not telling you where they are.)
it sucks having three heads. always beating yourself.
You shouldn’t have assumed you made the first comment. Now we both look foolish.
🙂
Sadly, you were not. Now you are but an overconfident fool.
HUBRIS! HUBRIS! HUBRIS!!!
What other kind of fool is there? 😄
Would a hesitant fool not also be a fool overconfident in their doubt?
False claimant to a false throne.
Shaaaaaaaaame.
So… is the ominous white glint Allison, or…?
Maybe the agony cannon form Incubus ship

O
There aren’t many of us left.
Ooooooh Gog is serious
How often do you think Gog makes her giant worm heads sing?
I think I’ve heard from folk brave enough to approach the Court of Worms in Charnel that sometimes the walls themselves sing. I fully believe that Gog-Agog will make anything sing, be they walls or giant heads, if it works for The Bit.
In brief, often. Very often.
I have to say that all of that clown buildup, only to be contrasted with this glorious body horror, has been worth it.
Worm time.
Worm time.
Wait, if she’s the strongest, what about Jagganoth?
She left last time, so she hasn’t been tested against him yet
Should be noted that you are taking the embodied sin of Envy at her word as to her power level.

Less than “getting back in the game”. This is a few scant moments of her passing interest.
Need there be more? A moment may contain an eternity…
Unstoppable force vs. unkillable worm.
“The Great Devourer” and “Scourge of Worlds.”

Nobody likes me.
Everybody hates me.
I guess I’ll eat the worm.
Gog Gog Agoggy one
Impaling armies just for fun
See the bodies wriggle and squirm.
Look at Gog agog having respect and discernment! 🙂
Welcome to Caelid, motherfuckers
Perhaps Gog Agog is in fact the outer god of rot
go go gago!

Look upon the Worm morW and despair.
Giant baby faces going “awooogawoogawoogawooga”
The dream parade from Paprika
now i’m imagining one of gog’s titles being “byakkoya-no-musume”
Gog’s fighting style definitely reminds me of the sheer incomprehensible insanity of the dream parade…undeniably canon
The taste of victory is absolutely disgusting.
I’m curious about what that red guy is. Demon seems like the obvious choice, but where’s the mask?
Reminds me of Jagganoth’s “final boss” form. Maybe he’s emulating it deliberately?
Five white devils in a trenchcoat
I believe that’s the corpse of a god made into a giant war machine.
There’s a lot of weird stuff out there that doesn’t seem to strictly fit in to the four orders of inheritors.
Oh, this one again? Back up on the people-pillars, everybody.
I love the two Republic soldiers, especially the one going “I ain’t touching THAT. No THANK YOU!”
