Our yearly Sandra and Woo and Gaia artwork contest has just started! The prize money this year is a whopping $1000! So don’t miss your chance to become one of the winners!
- Larisa: My soul has a very high price.
- The Devil: Come on! Can’t you even pretend to be a little surprised?!
|
First. Larisa has been expecting this visit for a long time.
If Larissa could act THAT surprised Mr. Devil, she’d win an award for it.
And just love the way Lar’s like…’really? Took you long enough.’
A certain Divine Personage is going to be in for a Larissa equivalent of a Divine Smiting.
Price: ‘Every flame that will ever be made henceforth does so at My pleasure alone.’
Figures Larisa doesn’t even bat an eye. XD
@ Pony-kour:
I thought they were on a first name basis.
Larisa, think for a second. If there’s a thing Lucy is not short of, is fire. It’s your oportunity
Why do I have the feeling she will end up being the new Crowley? And demons will beg to be sent to purgatory?
Who stole who’s wardrobe? Devil vs Steve Jobs
Awesome. It’s not often that a webcomic makes me laugh out loud.
She always play with fire. Maybe falling from space going over 200mph as a fireball and say in a creepy voice saying (I have a deal for you) might work out better.
Please, if you want to surprise Larisa you need a lot more fire then that.
And the award for best preformance goes too…

Yeah, me too! Great job Novil and Powree!
I know who I’m voting for on TWC until at least Sunday. 😀
I don’t think Larisa slowed down her walk at all.
This reminds me of Joel meeting Pete in ‘Houspets!’ Neither Joel nor Larisa is phased at all by
*poof!* *supernatural creature appears*
@Novil
I see ads now and they are the good type. Non-intrusive and in their special box. 🙂
Larisa will be the next doomguy.
Gotta love how Satan makes a Grand Entrance, and Larisa’s like “Whatever, Mushu.”

I was just thinking the same thing, why does Satan dress like Steve Jobs?
Of course Laura isn’t surprised. She instinctively knows the location and cause of every fire in her vicinity and immediate future.
Larissa is the aunt with money who lives upstate, and the devil is that one nephew trying to get some money to start his get rich quick scheme.
@ Arcanist Lupus:
I thought it was because they were related. Remember she is a descendant of the serpent.
NOOOOOOOO!!!!! My day-long binge of this series is brought to a premature screeching halt. I was hoping to at least milk this into the wee hours of the night.
On other notes, I just want to thank the author for spending I think about 8 years working on this comic so I can have this day filled with so many awwww-inspiring, awe-inspiring, cringeworthy, lol-comedic, and just plain adorably weird comic. I quite enjoyed my day off today by only reading this so congrats.
This comic strip itself was certainly one of those I quite enjoy reading. I certainly just love the showmanship of the Devil and the complete non-fazing by Larissa. Now I wonder how this will end. Also, Larissa wouldn’t you want to be in Hell where it’s always burning?
Now if you’ll excuse me I think I’ll be getting better at German through the German comic.
@ Mark Monlux:
Steve Jobs = The Devil!
Speaking of the devil looking like Steve, anyone else notice that if Larisa isn’t wearing that jacket she would be wearing the same matching outfit as Satan?
Love Larissa’s ” What kept you so long?” attitude.
Still, I’d be carefull if I was him, she could be taking over the joint before he knows it.
She DOES know her way around fire.
Also, I suppose you’ve had messages from reli-nutters stating you’re soon going to keep him compay in his domain.
To be fair, you DID show up with a turtleneck and jeans
@ Cinna:
Haha! Yeah, the Devil really needs to work on his appearance.
‘TA-DA! I’m the ruler of the underworld!’ Doesn’t really work when your dressed for casual friday. 😛
To be fair, she do looks a little surprised in the second panel.

Curious – not surprised.
“Ba-boom. Name is Satan, Lord of Hell. Hi, how you doin’?”

Sandra probably told her about his attempt to buy her’s with a cold drink
Larisa isn’t impressed because she can easily do better fire effects herself.
“Three of ten. And considering you are a major supernatural entity, zero of ten. If I had your powers people would be begging to be set on fire because they would look so incredibly impressive while dying.”

No, he prefers<blockquote<Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name.
How is she not surprised? He just made a hot entrance!
Is this the cure for her disease?
“Sorry, i expected you a bit earlier…”
You’re going to have to do better than that, bub. She’s had offers.
Larisa: Meh, I’ve seen better, 6.5 at best
I can’t believe Larisa let a chance to get some actual Hellfire slip by.

Right?

Rolling Stones, actually. A great song

Just because Larisa loves fire people think she’s evil? Meh.
As for Lucifer appearing being an opportunity to get access to hell fire, she already has built bigger fires than the pathetic display above. (the bonfire from the Luna arc comes to mind as being MUCH more impressive)

Novil has already said that Larisa’s condition will not be “hand waved” away as it would be a great disservice to all the people who actually have the disease and have no magic cure.
So no.
As for the premise of the arc, (as described thus far) the idea that the death of a teenager is “God’s fault” for allowing it to happen? Thing is God doesn’t let evil happen, man does. God just set up the situation. From the moment human kind gained sentience (and thus free will) everything bad that happens is our own fault for letting it happen.
Millions of innocent civilians die in a war? Man’s fault for having a war.
Thousands die from disease? Man’s fault for failing to protect/cure them.
Poverty? Famine? Injustice? Racism? Sexism? Intolerance? All the fault of man’s inhumanity to man.
Thus proving why woman is better than man! LOL! :p
@ Arch:
Hades? Is that you?

If you have the power to prevent evil and do not use it then you are responsible for that evil.
Thus the christian god is accountable for all evil.
Yeah, he needs some of that fire cloth, huh?@ Cinna:
@ RobertaM:
I can’t really tell if you are pro or anti-(blahblahinserthere), but you got me laughing.
You, I like you… Please take one internet, I had a spare anyway. 😀
And I agree, there’s no way Larisa gets a free ride on her illness.
Please more comidic posts; I’m an agnostic dude and that was hilarious.
I was actually expecting Larissa to be sat in a chair with a white cat on her lap and saying ” I was expecting you Mr Morningstar ! “
Ah. I don’t listen to the Rolling Stones, and it is on my only guns and roses album sung by them.@ coyoteBR:
Sandra’s soul on the other hand… (sold for a glass of lemonade)

What’s puzzling me is the nature of his game.
By the way, for much of the song background singers keep repeating: “Woo Woo! … Woo Woo!”
Stephen King is apparently fond of this song. There are references to it in Dreamcatcher and The Stand. In the latter, it is how the villian introduces himself.
Okay, it’s official, this guy is adorable.
