Congrats! Now my cyber minions shall slaughter you all and make use of your bodies as MEAT SUITS! Oh and I plan to destroy the world to fix my own and then release cyber world as the next MMO so it’s all good on my end.
I see Daedalus’s plan now. Many Kingdoms of Arkerra players will ragequit because Hurricane Software is sullying their high fantasy world with science fiction elements. With a rapid loss of revenue, Hurricane will be forced to shut down Kingdoms of Arkerra.
In Brother Tom’s defense on thinking Cyberia was The Countless’s realm, the beast that came out of the last portal seemed reasonably countless in terms of its pixely tentacle-limbs.
So I have to wonder…is this HR’s tactic to ensure Byron stays permanently “dead” in Arkerra and finally wakes up in Sepia World? If so, will it work or is Byron going to be stuck in his dead possessed body—aware of everything horrible it does?
Seconded. H.R./Homon is an evil madman, but like the fictionalized version of Dr. William Gull in From Hell (the original GN, not the film), he’s a educated evil madman. He’ll take you to school before he kills you. (Not literally, but in a closer-to-literal sense than the usual one.)
A different direction Homun could have argued from is “Do you really think something called The Countless Limbs would even have a particular homeworld? What if the worlds it inhabits are the limbs? What if it’s the aggregate of every wizard and cultist who uses the purple magic?”
Anyone else see a chance Tom actually survives this and gets a new perspective on death?
YAP YAP YAP, Brother Homon, this is getting goring.
Well, he’s certainly being awfully swarmy about it.
Some people just can’t help but be a bit glitchy.
y’know what they say; possession is 9/10ths the law.
Brother Tom does not a-door this situation
I think this creature is just an inter-reality repoman here to repossess Byron’s body.
I am Legion, for we are meany.
Ya know, i’m strating to suspect – just a little bit – that Something Bad Is About To Happen.
With this many goons, it might even be Something Awful.

GRR GOONS
I C whut u did thar
It looks like the release event for a new expansion.

Besides the bad puns, you mean? :P
Still holding out that this ends well.
I was thinking more along the lines of Something Wicked This Way Comes.
Brown control to Brother Tom
Brown control to Brother Tom
Change your underwear and put your fresh robe on.
Man, I got a good laugh out of that!
I hope you don’t mind that I never call you on the phone or meet you in person. I think you’ve discovered the Brown Note & I don’t want to test it.
Is it wrong I envision the Cyberia monsters singing the theme song from Nightmare Before Christmas?
Yes. Instead, imagine them all singing “I love you, you love me” from Barney.
That is a frightening prospect.
Eyeeeeew… Barney! Makes my skin crawl!
*Sees creatures and hears song**Shudders* The heck….
I would think they’re singing the Ghostbusters theme and imagining they’re escaping from the trap.
Speaking of escaping, I wonder if thy all think they’ve won the game since they’ve Escaped From Cyberia?
You really shouldn’t make such frightening comments, here. There are adults who read this comic!
I don’t think it’s goring Byron, given the alt text, I think it’s trying to possess him.
Cool! Space Invader Berserker Zombie Byron!
Who is also a human spirit from another reality. Its gonna be rather crowded in there.
Maybe this process will expel the human spirit back to its reality? I can’t imagine that HR would want it any other way
I think it is dry humping him!
Whatever’s going on is very much not dry.
Electricity produces a dry heat…
Shiney happy peepul. Why is they awl smiling? What they got to smyle about? This iz not gonna end well.
Oh yeaah. Almos forgot. Pretty nice set, guys. Always did like that portable (barely) stone portal. Some assembly required.
Seems like that cyber demon thing wants to have a heart to heart with Byron.
It wants Byron to share his heart and soul.
Maybe it’s just trying to give Byron a piece of it’s mind?
Blah blah blah..time to cut him short.
Goddamn cross-promotion events.
Achievement Unlocked: Possessed Berserker.
+2 Rage. +2 Ignore Wounds +2 Attack Speed.
Eli…
I notice that Byron’s hand is moving. That’s not something that usually happens when you’re dead. The question is, is it Byron or the “thing”?
“…is it Byron or the Thing?”
Yes.
More like “Things.” Looks like they all want to cram themselves into the Byron suit.
Galvanic response. They look like some weird Electric Fire demons…
Oh good. So now we know that the “Berserker Rage” skill is actually a computer virus. Good to know.
In Brother Tom’s defense on thinking Cyberia was The Countless’s realm, the beast that came out of the last portal seemed reasonably countless in terms of its pixely tentacle-limbs.
Thus ends any and all defense of his actions.
So I have to wonder…is this HR’s tactic to ensure Byron stays permanently “dead” in Arkerra and finally wakes up in Sepia World? If so, will it work or is Byron going to be stuck in his dead possessed body—aware of everything horrible it does?
Or, is Byron going to return to Sepiaworld as a berserker?
I do have to say, that’s some damn good writing. T. has spoiled me over the years, and this Phil guy ain’t half bad either.
Seconded. H.R./Homon is an evil madman, but like the fictionalized version of Dr. William Gull in From Hell (the original GN, not the film), he’s a educated evil madman. He’ll take you to school before he kills you. (Not literally, but in a closer-to-literal sense than the usual one.)
Am I the only one who immediately thought of the ‘I believe its magic’ scene from Ghostbusters?

…god I’m old.
Yes… but now that you have pointed it out I can’t believe I didn’t think of it myself.
There is no Byron. There is only Zuul.
I wasn’t imagining anything good would happen to Byron but uh, yeah, that’s much worse.
How many times do I have to tell you not to play with the Stargate?
I thought you locked out that address!
Ahhhhhh!
This can’t be good.
Zergling rush
Trying to come up with something clever…
…aaaaand here it is:
Welp.
I tried.
This is a lot of questions from Brother Homon. Especially since, when you serve a Shadow, there’s only one question worth asking.
So, Brother Tom…What do you want?
42 comments and nobody spotted the Yoda quote?
Brother Hom is a Star Wars fan.
Hail Yoda! All hail Cyberia!
So his belief doesn’t matter at all?
Is that an army of Evil Ottos? They are certainly making Byron Berzerk.
A different direction Homun could have argued from is “Do you really think something called The Countless Limbs would even have a particular homeworld? What if the worlds it inhabits are the limbs? What if it’s the aggregate of every wizard and cultist who uses the purple magic?”
Anyone else see a chance Tom actually survives this and gets a new perspective on death?
Ahhh. “The madness”, apparently all along has been an infection by something brought over from Cyberia?
Pragmatism 101. If homon got anything from HR it’s his basic philosophy studies.
It’s Haunter!
