Pretty Brainless

 

To be fair, I don't know for sure if Osiris really had his brain removed.  But given that Anubis does, on record, still have most of Osiris' innards in his possession, it's good guess.

On a related note, I just discovered that the beastie that Anubis is supposed to be was recently confirmed to be not a subspecies of golden jackal, but a separate species closer related to wolves, which is now called the African golden wolf (though I doubt the Ancient Egyptians knew the difference).  Funnily enough, it looks less wolf-like than actual jackals. 

This is the final Deities of Death comic for the year, so Osiris, Hel, and Anubis bid you all farewell for now and a happy Halloween!

Slow Day

Overlapping mythologies = job redundancy = occasional work shortage = boredom = desperation.  Therefore, overlapping mythologies = desperation.  Or something. 

Today's competitors are Grim, Sedna, Hel, Osiris, and Thanatos.  Maybe they'll learn to share. 

Been There, Punished That

Priorities often shift over time, frequently as a result of increased maturity.  Whether or not this qualifies is up for debate.

Today's Deity of Death comic features Hades, Persephone, and Cerberus. And before anyone asks, yes, I updated the look of Hades' helmet.  While the old design was derived from certain Ancient Greek helmet styles, it was still just something I threw together when I first drew him.  This new one is a combination of the old design and the Greco-Illyrian style helmet, which hopefully looks more appropriate for his King-of-the-Underworldness. 

Un-Undead

October has arrived once again, and that can mean only one...  okay, it can mean quite a lot of things, but on this particular site it usually means the Deities of Death are back, which they are.  Yays!

Today's comic stars none other than the Grim Reaper, who has put up with one too many undead entities.
