Kill All Boneheads Issue 4 page 11
Naga has long been associated with the devil. The imagery I use for Julian may also be scary but it's neutral at worst (You may notice the similarities between Ajna's design and the one for the thing that sits where Julian sits). Obviously there's aspects of Naga being a slave to his physical pleasures, in the devil tarot card, but it extends beyond that. How does one who's, on a metaphysical level, associated with addiction, loss of self-control, and the like, supposed to be a hero? Does he even want to be a hero? And what of the fate of someone who's given up their life and their self to do what they think is right? Does Julian dehumanize himself? At what point do you lose your humanity in the pursuit of righteousness? And is righteousness worth anything if there's no man behind the actions?
