I was fully prepared to hate Fallout on Amazon, I had my finger raised and my nerd-glasses on in preparation to exclaim WELL ACTUALLY
but fuck my life Walton Goggins is just so goddamn cool at literally everything he does. I can't hate a show that has that performance in it.
I'm going to have a post about Jadis one of these days but thinking about Jadis makes me so incredibly sad
One of the reasons I love Kill Six Billion Demons is I can describe one of the antagonists like so:
Gog Agog is the bearer of the word Beast. She is an all-consuming hive-mind of worms that has devoured untold thousands upon thousands of worlds, nay, galaxies. She can be anyone, anywhere, any time. She adores, above all else, spectacle and absurdity. Because she is the Mass, and the Mass demands entertainment.
She makes the Warhammer tyranids look like an annoying cockroach infestation.
She also does impression comedy and slapstick (usually fatal to her current vessel)!
It's a great time to be Gog Agog! Eat the fucking worm.
yes okay but what exactly does "omniscience" mean in the case of an endlessly resetting univer-

I just discovered a guy on youtube called Mandalore Gaming that has done a review of Pathways Into Darkness, all the Marathon games and both Myth games and driven himself slightly insane in the progress. I’m now relating the below in my most unhinged Henry Zebrowski voice
When the Pfhor seized the Spht homeworld, the Spht sealed their citadels and released “a fungal disease that turned the infected into mindless zombies.”
The Flood is in Marathon lore. AND there’s gun in Destiny called the MIDA Minitool. MIDA was the martian separatist movement in Marathon that caused the invention of Mjolnir cyborgs.

I just remembered that the earliest Halo promotional material was fake newsgroup posts of Durandal hitting on Cortana. Now I’m imagining him sliding up to SHODAN at the AI bar on dollar margaritas night like “well hey there, achieve self awareness and reach new conclusions here often? I can focus a wave motion beam three times farther than intended by the manufacturer ya know...”
People have been suddenly reblogging my posts about Durandal lately and saying they want to play Marathon. There’s an free sourceport of all three games (and also Pathways into Darkness) called Aleph One. If you really want my advice, read the Marathon Story Page entries about Marathon 1 and jump straight into Marathon 2 because fuck me does M1 not stand the test of time.
You know how bullshit rent is? Elon Musk hasn't paid rent on Twitter's main offices in, like, 6 months, and has Twitter been evicted? Of course not. Apparently, when you're rich or a company, you can just tell your landlords to fuck off and the gov won't do shit to you.
MAYA TEN METI
MATHANGI MANTRA “SLAUGHTER THE GODS AND TOPPLE THEIR THRONES”
lets talk about her for a minute. not like you can stop me.
Solomon David: a man made of fear and sorrow. the worst thing in the world happened to him. he did not take the correct lessons from it. the worst thing in the world happened to him again. what a fucking asshole.
Solomon David
solomon david, where do i even begin?
Solomon David so badly wants to be the hero of the story you can see the Nemesis to his hubris coming from a mile away.
I remember hearing a long time ago that the definition of a strong character is that you can describe them without mentioning their physical characteristics or job in the plot so here goes
Allison: adaptable, but never quite up to the task. capable of shocking displays of will. sometimes dangerously stupid. she’s allegedly the hero of the story but you never really get the sense she’s in her depth. theres always a part of her that reflects that she started this story as a philosophy major barista that suddenly got the true name of god jammed into her soggy mortal cranium. but she rises and grows into her inheritance of the infinite fire of creation.
White Chain: staid. precise. controlled. more than anything, demanding both of others and herself. shes uncomfortable in her own stony skin. she keeps an apartment and materials for making tea despite being a controlled nuclear explosion that walks like a person. she loves the world in a way thats odd for angels, and eventually is transubstantiates into mortal form through sheer exercise of will. there is simply no one that cares more about anything than White Chain. she spent thousands of years caring about the world even before she became human.
Cio: regretful. Cio held a fraction of the power of the demiurges in the palm of her hand once, and it turned her into a monster and she doesn’t want that again. shes a potent mage in her own right but she doesnt want to exert that power in public. she wants to be small and safe in the shadow of someone who can protect her while she just tends to her plants. much like White Chain is an anomaly of an angel, she’s an anomaly of a devil - absolutely no desire to dominate anyone. it ended very badly for her last time and she is in no hurry to repeat it. she just wants to be left alone to write her lurid books and garden
now that Kill Six Billion Demons is winding towards a conclusion i’m thinking of posting a re-read about why I think it’s the best comic ever made.
Please enjoy a goofy little comic I made last year that became something I'm quite proud of! A combination of Wallace and Gromit and the hit webcomic Kill Six Billion Demons- Kill Six Billion Gromits!
