Don’t miss to check out the following news post with the top 12 submissions of our yearly Sandra and Woo and Gaia artwork contest!

- Tablet: Access granted!
- The Devil: Excellent work, Karl!
- The Devil: Now we can start the calculation!
- Larisa: How long will we have to wait for the result?
- The Devil: Until Saturday morning, I guess.
- Larisa: That long?! We’ll hardly have any time to come up with a plan!
- Karl Koch: A program that predicts the future, and the users still find something to complain about.
- The Devil: They always do.
- Larisa: Well, excuse me!
And these buttons! Why don’t they respond faster!
Just before this strip Karl shouts “I AM INVINCIBLE!!!“
You know they say that if you can predict a few seconds into the future you can become millionaire on stock market… If it actually predicts precisely it is worth more than gold…

Well duh, how do you think the Koch Brothers became rich?
Here is the plan, contact Cloud’s mother and sister. Explain the situation. Thomas J God begs for mercy, bows downs and apologizes. The angels are used as wall decorations, held into place using various sharp and painfully pointy weapons. They never try anything like this again. After being taken down from being used as wall decorations, the angels are promptly used as demonstration tools on how to light divine entities on fire.
@ TvTropesgotmehooked:
I LOL’d. All he needs is glasses… XD
@ Insectoid:
Thanks! I have been holding onto that joke since Thursday. 😉
“In seven days we’ll have premonition data for an ENTIRE WEEK”
Stupid Angels, if it takes that long why not insert a function that replaces the results with the “u got hacked lolz” message? Would have been a lot more of a waste of time for the devils and substantially lowered their chances to come up with a backup plan. And since the calculation takes that long normally nobody would suspect a thing in the meantime.
I don’t know why, but after seeing Novil characterize several deities from different pantheons I am curious to see if the Igbo or Egyptian Gods will ever make a cameo
This reminds me of Devil Survivor, where they get an email every morning that says what major events will happen that day. In that, it’s implied that Laplace’s Demon is the source of the mail, so I’m kinda wondering if it’s a similar concept here.

this devil is a little less cool compared to the old devil of sinfest
but this devil is hundred times cooler than current devil of sinfest
Is it me, or does Karl remind anyone else of Howard Wolowitz? 🙂

Welcome newbie; you are in good company. 🙂
Does this Karl Koch have anything to do with the Nazi colonel, or is that just luck?
I have a usual answer for those users:
“Show me the math for it and the hardware that can run the math as fast as you want, and I do it for you.”
That usually shuts the people that expect the impossible right up. Reality tends to have that effect.

Pretty sure it’s this guy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Koch_(hacker)
After reading the last 16 chapters, It looks like a deal with the devil would be Larissa ideal future. And it wouldn’t affect the current comic at all (but could add some fun future arcs). I really really hope both parties fulfill their part of the pact.
