2013/04/29 [DMFA #1398] Fear of death right in her eyes.

[VAE]

Yep.
That said, I love the "She will not leave this island alive or undead" line, as well as the design of the half-skeletal naga.
Not surprised at the sheep though - getting your bones broken by a fall like that would rather suck. And dying *once* is far too often, never mind twice.

[ChaosMageX]

Darn it, I came so close to beating VAE, but at least this time I remembered to refresh and check first.

But seriously, how can that naga mythos even move on her own?  I can understand how being a skeleton from the waist down could work for a creature with legs, but most snakes move via scoot scales and the muscles that drive them on their undersides, which she is clearly lacking.

EDIT: The only way I can see her moving is via side-winding, and that might not even work too well with a humanoid upper half.

[Saist]

If you have to ask: the answer is MAGIC

Anyways, anybody else betting that Kria takes the Sheep home as her next pet?

Oooh, I would hope so, because I just love the banter between them, but then again it's probably not likely.

But seriously, if it is undead magic, then how exactly does it work, at least in her case?  Is it as if the flesh is still there, but just invisible, creating the pushing force that scoot scales would?

[Lying Foo]

I'm just wondering when she's going to start using her as a puppet.

No tail?  If Amber hadn't already said that wasn't Hennya, that would have convinced me...

You need to stop looking at them as rib bones, and start looking at them as centipede legs.

Actually, that thought did briefly pass my mind, and now that I think about it again, that could actually work, only it'd be more like a millipede than centipede, not just because she has so many ribs against the ground, but also because millipedes move by lifting their legs in a wave-like pattern, which is actually similar to the way most snakes naturally ungulate their scoot scales.  Heck, for all I know, the spacing between a snake's ribs could also be shifting along with their scoot scales when it moves, which would make that sort of movement natural and not something she'd have to learn to do after becoming undead.

...This comic needs more musical numbers. X3

And I need to write more lyrics to this.

Speaking of puppets, is anyone else hoping Kria and Sherri will soon be joined by a soft-spoken floppy-eared canine with a southern accent, and that Amber will come up with some great banter between all three of them?

Also, I'm still hoping that undead mythos is the same species of mythos as Hennya, which seems to be likely now that we know she has a naga body configuration.

[Jasae Bushae]

gummi sheep! bouncing here and there and everywhere~!
Sorry XD that theme song was just playing through my head when i read the last panel XD

[Ganurath]

I just realized something: The next assassination attempt is going to depend upon Kria being afraid of a violent threat, as opposed to amused and/or excited.

This is going to be hilarious.

[justacritic]

Amber is made of win!

[mithril]

Kria Poppins.. :shudder:
but so in character for her though...  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2FVLQrvUik

[Techcubi]

So, is this probably because of her brother? Do these undead actually know her at all?

[Tapewolf]

I do love that last panel.

[abcd_z]

When Amber mentioned the Superman theme, the first thing that popped into my head was that song from Tony Hawk Pro Skater.  Not sure what that has to do with flying, but it wouldn't necessarily be out of character for Kria to be singing it.

Just throwin' that out there.

[icarus]

so far this arc is everything i dreamed it would be

[MT Hazard]

So many questions! Who is this undead naga? Why does she want to kill/zombiefy  Kira? Does she care she killed off two undead? Why did her tail decompose faster than the rest of her?

[Merlin]

Dangit I am going to have that song stuck in my head for probably the rest of the week. AMBERRRRRRR

[LionHeart]

How about replacing it with this song?


Actually, what I first thought of was this.

"Can you read my mind?"

"No, I'm a Demon, not a Cubi."

[Arcblade]

I do love that last panel.

The last panel is glorious, and made me grin and chuckle.  Both a rare event and a lovely way to start your day.  Thank you, Amber!

"Wait, then how did you know what I was thinking?"  O_o

Would the floppy-eared canine with a southern accent be Hush Puppy.  Would that mean that Sherri is Lamb Chop or Shari Lewis?

[joshofspam]

This arc is just full of awesome.

I'm guessing Kria has put Sherri under her fun to tease category. She certainly is having a bit of fun at her expense.

She doesn't even seem to mind Sherri hanging on so tight. Wellllll...I guess she kind of counts as a life sized huggable plush.

...Aaaand, I think we know who can take the part of Charlie Horse - a certain equine demon with similar long ears and striped markings strangely similar to Charlie's pants:

They were expecting Lawful Evil, and they're about to get Chaotic Silly instead. ;-)  Yes, Kria Poppins is made of win from mane to hooves.
