So Weak 2012-08-13

Post by Mark N »

This is why Monica should not get too close to a pissed off Phix. I am hoping that that is one of the other Spinx's from the time forest; This one is in serious need of a head transplant after this. :!:

Also, Nice one Phix. :twisted:

Could that have been a demon? If sphinxes have them?

Who/whatever that is, is having a very bad day. I think it is one of Phix's demons, just like Monica's

For what it's worth, the horns resemble those of the goat-headed sphinxes thst Connie was portrayed facing down in the Time Forest. Phix has described herself as being the low sphinx on the totem pole; this might be one of the other apotropaic sphinxes, charged with guarding the Library, who just got a little bit too smug and superior at precisely the wrong moment.

He let his attitude get a bit too jerky, and now he's fit for nothing but.

(*clink*)

My guess is that this is not a "sphinx demon". From all we've been told about the relationship between sphinxes and demons, I don't think demons are able to infest sphinxes the way they can affect humans... sphinxes seem quite capable of obliterating any demon foolish enough to try such a stunt.

I thought it WAS Nudge at first look.

And if it's a male, he's got serious man-boobs.

I was afraid at first it was Nudge, from the horns. But, she doesn't usually talk in Black Box; She has an anthropoid face, not a muzzle; and we saw her last sitting with Shelly.

Phix better trim her nails or get some boxing gloves, if she's gonna keep this up.

So did I. Horn are wrong, though, and no shoulder spines.

These sphinxes perhaps?

Nah, just take a look at most Boxers and Weight-lifters, and guys like a young Governator as Conan, they ALL have huge Pecs...i'm ignoring the possible use of drugs to GET that way, but focusing on just how they LOOKED, that's all we're seeing there.

that goes to show that whomever that was, he's NOT a Titan, nor on par with Phix, since he didn't stay in one piece long enough to get punched thru the wall... when hit by tragedy, he just fell to pieces...

Hoooly sh.... :shock:

It's about as visceral as some preacher comics got. Some goat-faced Sphinx is lamenting he couldn't hold his yap...
but, why 42?

I love the horns falling off and the jawbone in the upper left. Good art!

And this year's Darwin award goes to the apotropic Sphinx dumb enough to talk smack to Phix in the one place she is invincible while she is SERIOUSLY P.O.ed. Well done, sir. Well done.

it's probably a demon, of some kind, if i recall correctly they're the only ones who talk with a black text box...

We know Nudge is a trickster demigod. Perhaps it was an illusion she created, to poke the right button so Phix could vent some rage.
