GIANT ATTACK MONSTERS MEGA-BATTLE! pg24
I’ve posted my San Diego Comic Con 2017 write-up on the ol’ Patreon page; for those of you who were wondering how the show went and how many people died, you can read all about it from the most trustworthy artist there!
…also don’t forget that the current story you are reading is available in all its glory in Scapula and the Sinister Monster Doom Legion, now available in the Store! This volume has been selling well so far, but let’s see if we can get Scap and his goons some more love.
Question: is this based on the stories of sloths disemboweling people when they get to close? Because I believe I read that they do that somewhere.
I also love how Slothula is able to completely kick his butt in what’s implied to be less than a minute (sidenote: is Zarbonok a robot or an organic being or a cyborg? Not clear on that) and then has to spend what’s implied to be several minutes just crawling over to the transmogrifier beam.
I’ve never heard stories of tree sloths being dangerous; the giant ground sloth could have been a real threat (massive size, giant claws, and even a form of subdermal ‘armor’ via small bone scutes under the skin) but you probably don’t have to worry about running into those beasts any time soon.
I guess Slothula (damn, I wish I had thought of that name) just got a boost of adrenaline but wore himself out. It happens.
As for the nature of Zarbonok’s physiology…cyborg, I guess. I would make a Dalek comparison, but my Dr. Who knowledge is sparse at best.
For the record, Dalek would be accurate: Crunchy metal outside, and chewy, hate-filled inside.
Oh, yeahhh. Sloths DO have some nasty-looking claws, don’t they?
…and some nasty ATTITUDES. If you thought cats were punks, you ain’t seen nuffin’ yet.
Never piss off an evil sloth!
Never piss off ANY sloth! Even the nice ones that go to church and teach their kids good life lessons will still rip the guts out of anyone who comes too close.
That’ll learn ya!
Learn ya to be DEAD! BOOM!
Clearly this man never attended the basic education system of earth, or he’d have seen the required safety video ‘DON’T BOTHER THE SLOTH OR IT WILL MURDER YOU!!!!’. I have that video on DVD and watch it regularly just to remind myself of the greatest danger to humanity!
It just ends with “duck and cover under your desk, kids”…which, oddly enough, is EXACTLY what one should do when facing a murderous sloth. Works like a charm!
I still like the final announcer! The guy who sounds like a game show host: “Remember kids, DON’T GET SLOTHED!”
That was both unexpected but soooo coming! I always knew there was more to that harmless smile of these vile tree-hugging beasts!
Now let’s see what the transmutation ray can do for Scaps.
Hopefully it just doesn’t make him a BIGGER sloth…God help us all!
did Slothula just kiju himself?!? only thing worse that a slaughter happy sloth is a gargantuan slaughter happy sloth.
The kaiju classic War of the Gargantuas would have played out much differently if it were about two massive sloths fighting each other…hell, the movie would run about eight hours long and that’s just for them to take the first swing!
I’m just going to say it….. stick around, the next page is a real killer!
