Can we get this on tv pls
I suddenly feel a bit better about Shadow’s virginity
Why’s that? 😈
I felt better about Shadow’s virginity as well due to Terminus taking the place of Lord Mortis, but my worries have come back due to that devil icon you posted. I thought the tweet you posted at the start of February said that Moonlight was not intending to have Shadow have sex with Lord Mortis (or anyone, for that matter) as part of the ceremony (unless that tweet was just a joke to throw us off the trail or the devil icon itself is supposed to throw us off the trail).
Oh, Mother Moonlight isn’t planning anything like that, but Terminus is a huge womanizer, right? Hmmm…
But now Terminus is stuck with Nightmare. Hell hath no fury, etc. :]
On the upside, she seems to find the whole conspiracy thing exciting.
Oh. Yeah. Nightmare. Right.
Yeah.. from her fiery personality.. I would think ANY male.. Human or Noxian would understand she is NOT a woman to be trifled with! I like fiery women, and Nightmare is a dead sexy knockout.. but Nightmare I think is just to evil and violent ~ I think she “Likes” hurting people. THAT is a non-starter.
You’d THINK some guys would know better, but I’ve seen enough guys do their thinking with their short sword to know that they don’t.
It’s true that Terminus is a womanizer. Terminus does not seem interested in a committed relationship. He sleeps with both Anna and Nightmare behind both Anna and Nightmare’s backs. But one thing he does not want is to be found out. He most likely decided to continue sleeping with both women because he never thought they would interact with each other and find out he hasn’t been committed to either of them. If he chooses to add Shadow to his list of sexual partners, the question is how does he plan to get away with it? Midnight found out that Shadow is in love with Tim, so if Terminus has sex with Shadow, she might find out, and if Terminus rapes Shadow, I’m 99% sure she will find out since those who get raped are traumatized (I assume). But Midnight might not be the biggest concern that Terminus might have if he has sex with Shadow. His biggest concern might be Nightmare since she and Shadow live in the same world and frequently encounter each other. Nightmare will be enraged if she finds out Terminus is not committed to her and had sex with her rival of all people (both humans and Noxians). But so far, Terminus has not proven to be perfect since I don’t think he counted on Anna getting kidnapped by the government.
I don’t think the two jokers who abducted Anna are government types. Too few and too sneaky. Which opens more possibilities, after all.
Yeah, they aren’t working for any government, or are they? Hmmm…
this page was especialy good for art! youre usually at a 7 or 8 this was a 9.5! nice job!
Thanks, I guess? heh
I’m gonna guess that Nox has no concept of forensics, because this just may be the weakest story I’ve ever seen. Terminus is not exactly hitting Light Yagami levels of KEIKAKU here.
Nope, it doesn’t have forensics there. Hah.
My God this storyline is amazing. I cant believe i am just now seeing this, Even though i binged it for like 3 hours i need more, Hell i think this should be Animated when its finished like on adult swim, or netflix or something. Not only is the story is beautiful, the characters are well written, there so much heart and emotion, The plot twist are great, cool concept, and more important than anything it just feels real and relatable. Words fail me. This feels like Steven Universe+Star vs the forces of evil+ Helluva Boss. The creator (when they finish) seriously needs to pitch this to someone, because DAMN!, and to think you been working on this for like 6 years. I also have to say that only eyes were glued and at attention to the wholesomeness of it all. 100/100 I need this to be a show!
TL note: keikaku means plan
Even without a proper investigation, the jig may well be up if someone as much as notices blue hair and drop of blood stuck to that globe (seeing how it cracked, there’s going to be some) and asks some inconvenient questions. Did they return to clean it?
Both the version Brandon’s shown us and Terminus’ version can explain the bit with the globe. After all, why would Lord Mortis run from Terminus? Clearly, there was a fight, and if Terminus has any sense, he’ll say he won because Nightmare helped him in that fashion.
If it’s spoon-fed to him, sure. If someone starts with asking for details, may walk into it. Terminus has some sense, but not much.
In my opinion they aren’t going to be found out since the Brotherhood seems to be blinded by rage as well as this being possibly the first murder any Nox there have seen in their lifetime. I conclude this because it seems that the police system in Nox is nonexistent and assuming that the Nox have been around for as long as humans or longer the lack of even primitive law enforcement strongly suggests that there is no problem with Nox breaking it. So due to this being basically the Nox crime of the decade or maybe the century I doubt there is anyone who will uncover anything ( Besides Lady Moonlight who might uncover something through sheer persistence ). Really Lady Moonlight is being set up to discover the truth because there is no one else who would have the motivation to do some digging.
Very insightful!
> and assuming that the Nox have been around for as long as humans or longer the lack of even primitive law enforcement
Ah, but it was around for very long… before the Axle broke. How long ago was THAT, we don’t know. So now Nox seems to have very simple and straightforward organization, but it’s natural for a post-apocalyptic setting. Which breaks before our eyes, ultimately because Nox outgrew it.
So there’s Nightmare with a vague ambition, Terminus with a vision of greatness (even if he didn’t think it through too well), Ruth and Shadow who turned their eyes to interesting people on more entertaining Earth, one way or another.
Termie’s current situation seems to roll mainly due to shock, indeed. It’s a strong tug, but also fragile. And the sensational nature of a one-in-a-lifetime incident only makes the setup more precarious: they don’t ask questions now, but they pay attention.
Brandon, if you’re gonna pitch this comic to someone to turn it into a tv show, pitch it to Funimation. Your comic is basically a manga, so it makes sense to pitch it to Funimation. Pitching it to Netflix or Adult Swim is a bad idea. Both Netflix AND Adult Swim are control freaks. They don’t let the creators have any creator control or creator influence whatsoever. That, and they both censor the heck outta their shows. And if they cancel or show or deny a pitch of a show they don’t like, they will do everything they can to make sure that creators don’t get a second chance to pitch their show to someone else. Heck, they sued funimation in an attempt to prevent One Piece from continuing the anime through Funimation, which failed hilariously. Funimation wont do stuff like that to creators. The reason Funimation has such a massive library of anime, is because Funimation treats people fairly, respectfully, and doesn’t attempt to ruin creators work. Funimation also has a lot of people that watch their streaming platform along with their cable channel known as Funimation Channel. Brandon, If you pitch your comic to someone, I HIGHLY recommend you choose Funimation over anything else.
Funimation? Was it the one that…
…lost clients due to a ridiculously crappy app?
…had a #metoo witch hunt (Vic Mignogna)?
…had vultures circling over it with a class warfare lawsuit?
…”purchased” Interspecies Reviewers only to lock it in a safe and prevent anyone else from releasing it?
…joined “Japanese Anime Production Committee” (“unofficially official” gatekeepers, Comics Code style)?
also if they did investigate the murder of the high-father, i don’t think cleaning the globe will help matters. Rather it would make things worse for the little mean green lying douchebag standing with his scrawny arms hanging out. Nox prolly has something that can detect chemical residue at a crime scene.
Sadly, I have a gut feeling the green-haired fraud is using Nightmare for his own selfish purposes. Brandon, PLEASE make sure either Timothy saves Nightmare from that monster. I think it be cool to see Shadow and Nightmare competing for Timothy’s heart. LOL😂It’d also be cool if Timothy was able to turn into a Noxian form of himself.
With 82 pages so far, Chapter 4 is one of the longest chapters of The Monster Under the Bed. If there are 18 more pages, it will reach 100!
My God!!
You know ARITHMETIC!!!!
Whoa doesn’t even looks like she hesitated to brain him… She may be less… sympathetic/bystander-y than some parts have seemingly implied.
I just read this whole comic in an hour and a half i cant sleep its 2 am already
i left this comic for the winter im so happy your still going and the comic is still getting better and better 🙂 <3 keep it up i cant wait to see what you plan for this comic
I wish I had followed this comic from the beginning but now I can see how it progresses and I love it, you did a really good job, keep doing it like this. But also that the best lie he could tell? I mean, there are so many good excuses for that like “He always acted well, but on the inside he just wants to become the next in command”, but even with that if HE says so, he loses the veracity of his own words
So, of the two people above you one is dead, the other is missing, you’re accusing the latter of the murder of the former and the only evidence is your say so.
…
…
…
Sounds legit; Let’s make you our supreme leader.
Probably also Nightmare’s say-so. But yeah, Moonie can’t be the only one doubting this, so it’s mostly dumb luck that holds him afloat at this point.
Rick: “D-Damnit Morty!”
Will we see Lord Mortis again? If so, will it be in this chapter or the next one?
Yes. Next Chapter.
