at least she doesn't have to pay for it 😂

 

[pandanoia]

Wow that's actually terrifying

 

[DjAlexDubCheck]

@franky09 @Nightlilygirl-
The author did post this message after the chapter: "dont worry, the boy’s journey still continues. To be continued "

 

[Nightlilygirl-]

@DjAlexDubCheck well, I just wonder how the story is gonna unfold now, poor guy XD

 

[zeluqa]

Awaken, my masters.

 

[DjAlexDubCheck]

@Nightlilygirl-
There are two ways:
-he's found by some space station and then is taken back to Earth, where his sister finds him again
or
-he ends up on some planet where some aliens may take him back to normality, and he may use
their spaceships to chase Medusa (why not ?)

 

[KatoShuu]

@LouTheRed
Good point., but is she "a human turn into beast/monster" or "a humanoid beast/monster"?

 

[Nightlilygirl-]

@DjAlexDubCheck huuh, the second one would be pretty interesting!

 

[muge]

F

 

[Intense]

😰

 

[Doomroar]

Sick Jojo reference.

Author hates that boy.

 

[DjAlexDubCheck]

@Nightlilygirl- Very funny above all

 

[DjAlexDubCheck]

@PrivatePublic
I read it as if author felt that series was becoming too sweet, so he decided to get hardcore
because we're talking about monsters here after all

 

[KazumiSangaku]

But...what animal is she? I get the whole "turned into an animal" thing but WHAT animal?

 

[Paltiel]

@KazumiSangaku

Shaman looks like a hyena. Note the spots, shape of ears and black-tipped tail.

Y’all are like, “what animal is she” and I’m just sitting here like, “the author seriously just sent a boy into space, never to return, but because the boy is still conscious, he was forced to suffer and he tortured for the rest of his existence”

I can't believe I have to register just so I can post here.

Guys, have you ever thought that Han is not being purposefully sadistic? He just wants to tell stories -- it's you guys that go out of your way to overthink the strips and come up with how fucked up is it that people are losing their jobs to robots and that they're indentured servants, or Medusa not getting a comeuppance or that the petrified boy ended up getting Kars'd -- instead, Han just wants to tell stories, without delving too much on the consequences, just for the sake of a punchline.

And, I must say this, as the localizator and occasional letterer for this series -- in no previous strip was there ever a reference of a petrified victim remaining conscious upon petrification, and if you guys want to overthink it, just look at the Medusa strip where she makes a statue out of a heroic dog; for I don't think Medusa would leave a dying dog to suffer eternally.

Instead, the whole thing about the "boy stopped thinking" was simply to make full use of a JoJo reference.

You guys need to chill.

You know who else got hurled into the beyond and turned to stone? Heracles' manservant Lichas. Per Ovid:

So, in his frenzy, as he wandered there,
he chanced upon the trembling Lichas, crouched
in the close covert of a hollow rock.
Then in a savage fury he cried out,
“Was it you, Lichas, brought this fatal gift?
Shall you be called the author of my death?”
Lichas, in terror, groveled at his feet,
and begged for mercy--“Only let me live!”
But seizing on him, the crazed Hero whirled
him thrice and once again about his head,
and hurled him, shot as by a catapult,
into the waves of the Euboic Sea.
Lichas was innocent but due to a big misunderstanding
Hercules threw in him the sea.

While he was hanging in the air, his form
was hardened; as, we know, rain drops may first
be frozen by the cold air, and then change
to snow, and as it falls through whirling winds
may press, so twisted, into round hailstones:
even so has ancient lore declared that when
strong arms hurled Lichas through the mountain air
through fear, his blood was curdled in his veins.
No moisture left in him, he was transformed
into a flint-rock. Even to this day,
a low crag rising from the waves is seen
out of the deep Euboean Sea, and holds
the certain outline of a human form,
so surely traced, the wary sailors fear
to tread upon it, thinking it has life,
and they have called it Lichas ever since.
