Really quick, could you all scroll down? I’ve posted a new popularity poll for The Real Superheroines. I just want to see how their Q-ratings are with the audience compared to when I first did the poll.
Now for my weekly Kick chatter:
Which of you had “Kickman gets married to a demon” on their Bingo card?
I will give a tip of the hat and 8 Kick Points to Doomedelf for this correct prediction back on page 8 of this chapter:
The opposite of casual sex is bound sex. As in in matrimony not kinky stuff. Lust is self gratification. Doing it for someone else and making it a bound this is the only person I do it for would counteract it not sure how you would apply that in the situation though.
So did Kickman figure out a way to effectively nullify Succubus’s power? What better way to battle evil than getting married? I think there’s an advertisement for monogamy discreetly hidden in this chapter. The Catholic Church is sending me a commission check at the end of the month. Also, if any of you decide to marry your long-time partner after reading this strip let me know. I get a $600 bonus.
So… marriage???
Think it will be a quick, simple ceremony with no repercussions?
Noooo.
There is still a lot of chapter coming. So stay tuned.
And just when I feared Matt, author Matt to be clear, was getting predictable.
Is there a registry for Wedding gifts, and what characters would be on it?
But… marriage is a sacrament. Wouldn’t that inconvenience a demon, just a skoosh? Or is that K’s plan???
Kickman has plans? You do read the comic, right?
(He’s always outsourced that to, now, Grey Hawk.)
You got to give Kickman props for some of his old plans… (thinking)…
He did start that race war within Gemini!
She’s looking very invincible to standard demon-killing tropes. Maybe if they dropped a piano on her?
How would she react to a Bridal Shower?
(Whistles)(Avoids eye contact)
Probably, which is why he said “win-wins all around”. If she’s powered by illicit sex, getting married should bleed off the majority of her power (though it might make her gain power even faster if she cheats). Angelina may not *want* to be a demon all the time, but clearly likes sex too much to not transform.
Assuming that they can get along with each other, getting married actually might solve all their problems. Kickman LLC gets their alliance, Succubus gets to be a normal woman without suppressing her desires, and Kickman gets a hot wife. The horde of jealous demons outside, however, might object to this marriage.
Kickman has some kind of enhanced durability right? If so, would the last panel mean Succubus has been burning through lovers?
Nah, for the last few months all of her lovers have become progressively more tainted. And of course the taint starts off in the taint and spreads from there.
I was hoping the St. John the Baptist Clavicle-Dart Relic would get more likes… 🙂
Actually I was thinking wouldn’t it make more sense to use the clavicle as a club or something. Then you could the fingers and toes for the darts. Also if anyone makes a weapon out of me I was thinking a mace with my skull as the iron ball and my spine as the chain.
It’s a 10/10 line, but the art is 20/20 and I’m distracted by the fact that you’ve managed to get facehugger-y fingers on human hands while still making the character look like a physical powerhouse!
20/10. Sorry!
Maybe none of us are Cath-A-Lic (per Lady White Adder) to catch the humor?
There’s nothing worse than a tainted taint.
Or so I’ve been told.
