Eldritch: Lineage 038


So… I don’t know if any of you have done any study on the Codex Gigas… but if you haven’t, let me tell you, it is SUPER cool.  I mean, for one, check out the size of it: http://amazingnotes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/codex-gigas.jpg and two, check out the famed Devil image from the book: http://www.cvltnation.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Codex-Gigas-1.jpg  That is SCARY stuff, and veers away from the usual demonization of previously existing gods.  It is its own, unique Satan, and its appearance, as well as its monstrous size just screamed ‘Bible-for-a-dragon” to me.  God, even the cover is beautiful: http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/thumblarge_554/1289154157eVQsz7.jpg

  1. The book needs its own pedestals on the cover!

  2. Good as always. I do feel I should point out the minor typo in the 5th panel. You wrote 'bets' and it reads more clearly as 'best' guessing your fingers just jumped.

  3. panel 2 line 3 about half way through "sensation Id felt prom previous days" I assume that was a typo
