Well it's no wonder they were evil & cranky...they were hungry! Blood sugar all out of space-whack and all that.

Is that scene supposed to be some weird parody of The Last Supper?

It may just be my monitor but I swear The Big J is wearing an outfit that's orange on one side and purple on the other.

I'd never noticed the connection before. Good call, Eryk.

Waitresses please note: never kiss a grumpy hungry villain on fire.

Sun Emperor! You traitor!

Uhh, I don't want to get sacreligious here or anything, but I do wonder about the messianic aspirations of the central figure.

It's funny. I've thought there was something odd about that panel for ages, but never made the connection myself until Leapy posted it.

I think we might want to keep this a secret from Mekt, however. His position in this panel might just go to his head...

Uh, count again, Cramey.


I actually think Roy is in the "Judas" position. It would have been really interesting if they'd actually used that symbolism for something, though.

And now for a quick Art History lesson that involves some of the conspiracy theories in the Da Vinci code!:

The figure directly on Jesus right (our left), when analyzed by a comptuer that allowed the image to be seen at a higher resolution reveals this: that figure is a girl!!!

What you ask? The figure to Jesus' right, as depicted by Leonardo Da Vinci, is actually Mary Magdeline! Da Vinci, along with 2000 years worth of scholars and kings, believed that Mary Magdeline was actually the wife of Jesus. Their children and descendents, the bloodline of Christ, is the true 'Holy Grail' written about in legends and protected by the Templars.

Da Vinci purposely depicted Mary Magdeline next to Jesus to show this, although he did it in a way that makes it hard to tell if it's really her, or John the Apostle.

In addition, there are a bunch of other crazy things in the picture, like a Peter holding a knife up to Mary's throat, and a third arm coming from somewhere...

Which makes it even crazier when you consider that Giffen made sure that the Mary Magdeline figure, when done as the LoSV, was a girl, Esper Lass.

Done on purpose? Well, Giffen is known for being well read and into that kind of stuff...

I think so! Esper Lass as Mary Magdeline in comparison to Mekt as Jesus?

Super Supper...of Space!

But you'll notice a wholly lack of Grell.
