We are going to read one of the best comics of the past two years.
Come Along this is Jason Shiga's Demon.
What have you guys been reading into anyway?
>>82872494
what the fuck is this webcomic shit
>>82872514
Some of the funniest best use of page space and motion action comics you will ever read
You will not regret it anon.
Unlike whenever I did this last year the comic is finished now so we are doing all of it.
I'm trusting you, anon.
>>82872692
I thank you for that trust
I'm liking this so far.
>>82872494
Ah, Jason Shiga. I remember reading his short comic about the man trapped in a phone booth and it was so smart it made me feel dumb. This should be good.
>>82872494
Have read half of Demon, can confirm it is great
>>82872944
If you would be so kind to let the new people find out what is happening at their own speed.
>>82872995
Confusion, why the towel?
>>82873201
Bad silencer?
>>82873201
I guess to not alert the whole neighbourhood
>>82873201
DIY silencer. Which probably doesn't work.

>>82873246
WHEEE!
>>82873358
>hooked into this story
>have to wake up at 5am for work
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>82872494
I'm already quite interested in this. Please continue OP.
>>82873524
>that last panel
Fuck
I never asked for these feels
>>82873508
>so im out, peace niggas
who signs a suicide note like this
Shiga's so fucking good. He's the one who did the comic about the amnesiac trapped in the phone booth, yeah?
This is indeed some excellent shit. I kept trying to recommend it to people, but it's hard to give them the hook without spoiling the fun.
So I just tell them about thecum-rag origami shiv and that usually works.
>>82873573
How would you do it?
>>82873589
Yup, Fleep.
>>82872827
I first saw his work via meanwhile
actually it was via nickelodeon magazine but I didn't realize it until after meanwhile
>>82873762
wait he's not in the picture, that's the truck driver
>>82873856
>you must be betty
You could at least pretend to be empathetic
>>82873919
Jimmy isn't the most emphatic person
Have you figured it out?
>>82872796
This is great thus far
>>82874118
Oh shit!
>>82874203
it just hit me
oh boy
That feel when the answer is right in front of your face the whole time.
the comic's funnier if you imagine Jimmy sounding like Shiga

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1Xk5V-mIzg
Let's family circus the shit out of this.
>>82874349
Weird, that's actually pretty close to the voice I read his stumpy little protags with
>>82874349
>720 pages
First time reading along with this, and it's great, but are you planning on storytiming it all?
>>82874486
Yep I am
it took us 100 pages to set this insane thing up and now lets blow it out and go crazy and crazier and crazier.
The simplest explanation of what this comic is, is the Death Note of violence comics.
>>82874380
>Now, these motel rooms all have the same layout and furniture so I didn't realize I'd actually gone next door.
well now i feel stupid
Hmmm, why are the heads always missing?
>>82874476
I imagine them with kiddy voices, if only because my first exposure to shiga was meanwhile (where Jimmy's a kid)
>>82874627
You are seeing it from Jimmy's perspective.
>>82874566
I should've caught it with the bullet hole cracking the tiles in the bathroom.
i wasn't sure what to think
never heard of shiga, but this is actually really good
>>82872513
>Jason Shiga
Holy shit I remember reading his book about time travel as a kid... Good times
>>82874913
GOD DAMN THIS FUCKING COMIC
>>82874913
>that fucking face when he shoots himself
jimmy turned into a cunt so fucking fast and i love him
Where are the semen demons?
>>82875171
Oh he was a fucking cunt from page 1.
He's a demon, after all.
>>82875389
>that last panel
OKAY SCARED NOW
>>82875270
>>82875286
Is this legal?
>>82875446
Hunter goes to certain extremes
>>82875492
>it's his head on Mason's fat naked body
Man this comic pinballs between different flavors of black comedy so quickly
>>82875569
You could say that.
>>82875688
>I usually just rub myself up against a pillow
Oh hey, me too.
>>82875688
>>82875708
This
fucking
comic
>>82875769
HOLY SHIT IT WORKED
>>82875688
Wow. I'm surprised he didn't think of this first.
>>82875814
>and all I had to do was murder a prison full of people
>>82875797
He recognized it was a cum knife in seconds, that man has been through some intensive training.
You find out you can do that, and have some free time what would you do?
Testing!
>>82875907
All government agents are taught the cum knife technique, in case their cyanide capsule is discovered.
>>82875953
>>82875968
Yep. He was always a cunt.
>>82875921
Possess a cute girl and cum knife myself ad infinitum.
Shiga is straight up the best mystery comic writer working.
>>82876030
I'm going to feel dumb when we find out what he needs the money for, aren't I.
>>82876079
oh man if he can switch to animals
>>82876067
It isn't anything big it was just Revenge
>>82876125
Damn it Jimmy, what are you doing? Never go back to the scene of the crime
I can't help but think that if somebody a little less cunning/resourceful happened to be a demon this story would be a hell of a lot less entertaining.
>>82876215
How fucking long is it taking him to do this?
How many people is he killing along the way?
Jesus christ.
Hey OP, just wanted to say this was a great birthday present.
>>82876377
>Accidentally trespassed in a temple
uh that seems like a pretty big one to me
what kind of temple are we talking about
>>82876414
Happy Birthday anon! May good things come your way
Obviously demonism is Hereditary
>>82872494
did it update?
>>82876528
wait what
WHAT
THE FUCK
>>82876544
It is all done.
>>82876528
I should have realized that when he said Leeland was reduced to the mind of a third grader.
Holy shit! what a twist!!
>>82876436
but heron marsh is now occupied by his daughter right......RIGHT????
>>82876272
>>82876296
i wish they wouldn't try to explain this shit if it's not story-relevant
comics is comics
>>82876680
Shiga's a Pure Math major. His interests are funny.
>>82876680
That is how he does comics and it carries throughout the book, heads up.
>>82876743
I'm pretty sure you can't cut your arm off with just bullets.
>>82876765
I am not sure anyone has ever actually tried?
>>82876528
I saw it coming...it still shocked me. Wow.
>>82876563
great, cant wait to see how it ends, can you drop a link?
>>82875688
>he's going to hot glue a shank together
I knew this was coming because I read it before, but this is still hilarious
>>82876894
I just downloaded them all individually I was planning to put one up at the end.
>>82876765
But sure you can jump from body to body when you die.
Thank god you bring logic to this serious place.
>>82876867
Problem with Demon is Jimmy goes from 'Real good at math and remembering' to Marty Stu/Karma Houdini. The toilet paper up his ass scene was the start of it and the nadir of it what Hunter getting unlimited ammo guns but unable to hit one fucking thing
>>82872494
Are you the same guy who story timed this the last time
I really liked it but didn't bother checking for updates since it seemed like the kind of webcomic that would be a drag to read in slow updates
>>82876967
This entire comic is just one massive unfolding keikkaku ride and I love it.
>>82876995
Yeah I forget when that was, it was like 500 pages deep at that point.
>>82876829
Does glass that's bulletproof from only one side actually exist?
>>82876915
but im pretty far in, i would have to wait a couple of hours for that
>>82876980
The shiv was so ridiculous and I can buy it as him having enough time to think carefully about this shit, that I thought it was great.
This whole "I'm going to manage to exactly hit the right vein so the anaesthetic won't work" bullshit is starting to get to that level you describe though.
>>82875937
>>82875953
Is that supposed to be paint or tired eyes?
>>82877097
I would agree if he shot it at someone elses, him doing it to himself fits in the vein of what this comic is.
>>82877127
Not sure
>>82877049
Yeah that's right it was almost exactly two threads worth of story time
Thanks for doing this again. I look forward to when we get up to where you left off last time
Normally I like ending threads on clean breaks but the length of issues and the total page count prevents that.
>>82876929
Jimmy's closer to the guards than he is to Graham. Goddamit.
>>82877196
more escalation.
>>82877207
How much more of this comic is there? I got to get to sleep but I fucking hooked.
>>82877215
The guards are also below him too technically
>>82877226
The total count is 720
So if this thread took 2 hours it will probably be a bit before we hit the end.
>>82876416
jewish temple
they are not big on outsiders
>>82876967
Now how the fuck does an accountant know anything about human anatomy much less subclavian artery?
The ride continues here
>>82877497
>>82873798
fuck i did not notice
keep up OP, im still reading
>>82876945
one is a plot device that sets off the entire story, but someone shooting themselves in the arm with a small bullet no way to tell from the art but most likely either 9mm, .40 s&w, 357 sig or 45acp theres no way any of those calibers have the kinetic energy from muzzle velocity to blow an arm off
lets assume that the ammo he shot was 115grains thats roughly a muzzle energy of 335 (ft*lbs) muzzle velocity of 1145 (ft/sec) which means you have about 454 Joules of energy going into arm
For 40 s&w you have a projectile weight of lets say 180grains (gonna go with a hotter round cause 40 short and weak) muzzle energy being about 400 (ft*lbs) and a velocity of 1000 (ft/sec) ending with 542 Joules of energy
357 sig there probably no chance that anyone would use that cartridge so im gonna skip it
45acp has a projectile weight of 230grains with a muzzle energy of 365 (ft*lb) and a muzzle velocity of 845 ft/sec) giving 494 Joules
(keep in mind there are different loads and different grains so the math is static on which ammo you choose to account for)
Now we get into tumbling and how that energy is distributed but basically how it is projectile enters the body with a high velocity causing entrance wounds and exit wounds.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSrlItrsbvs
shows the basic reaction of the human body to this and it doesnt explode tearing the arm off, it makes a nice clean wound.
So basically gun autism kicked in and no handgun round would tear the guys arm off
>>82874476
yeah that's eerily perfect.
>>82873488
That's what you get for not wearing your seatbelt
dumbass
>>82876377
dude its the fucking temple
>inb4 its the cat
>>82875769
>>82875797
Haha holy fuck
did it update?
>>82876563
>It is all done.
... what? Geez, I read the last page and didn't even realize it was over.
"I guess we'll find out next month" ... What's in a month?Also, wouldn't everyone being demons mean that no one can reincarnate because there's no non-demons to reincarnate into? ... also, doesn't it mean that the species is doomed because no one can have offspring?
>>82876528
FUCK
>>82874396
Holy Bologna!!!
>>82876757
holy fuck jimmy you could've killed your daughter there if her demonism wouldn't work like yours
>>82877321
>>82877332
that's pretty clever
>>82879299
i'm still not quite sure what happened there/what the purpose of it was
>>82879368
he needed a way to transfer into another person while moving at high speed so the feds wouldn't catch him so he decided to posses a person driving on a highway but just possessing a person middle drive would've probably made him crash so he decided to grab a wheel so when he possesses a person driving his hands would be on the driving position making it easier to him to don't loose control of the car
I'm pretty sure theres a much simpler way to explain that but english is not my first language, I'm really bad at explaining stuff and it's really late
>>82879566
No, that helped. Thanks.
>>82877097
When you hit the wooden chair and mid-air battle, you know Shita is just being a troll.
>>82876030
I GOT IT, THE PILLOWCASE FACTORY!
>>82877051
YEs, but only if the lights are off in only one room.
>>82877304
Wan't to say high, I've been reading so voraciously I forgot to say something in the thread that I'm here.
>>82874913
I was expecting something light and cute. THAT escalated in a hurry.
>>82875446
Probably not, but who's gonna stop him?
>>82875797
Saved for my next visit to r9k.
>>82874118
So it's quantum leap with suicide.
>>82874203
Quantum leap with suicide. Clever.
>>82876945
>implying what he said has anything to do with logic
REEEEEEEEEEEE
>>82876377
>>82876387
Oh dear lord his daughter is in the body of Heron Marsh. He's going to kill his own daughter trapped in a grown man's body.
