Description I think that death would be very frightening as a bug-like being.
After all, there are more bugs, planktons and other small organisms that exists, lives and dies every day than any amount of human beings. So maybe Death is more influenced by these?
...
That, and most bugs scare- fascinate me XD

Pitch belongs to Dreamworks

You've got interesting notions for that bug-Death thing. I think it's quite creative.

I think that pitch just said death was very bug like because he knew that the guy knew he had a bug on hind and wanted him to freak.

I have to say I love the concept, especially since I don't like spiders >_< (even though they are called arachnids and not bugs). This actually has some influence with one of my Death characters for my RotG fan fiction. But other than that this is great work and I like how Death is talked about owo~

Death stayed bug-like, huh? No wonder so many people dislike spiders where I live then. Personally I don't mind them too much, as long as they aren't too big or crawling on me.


Speaking of bugs crawling on people, I'm currently laughting at the fact a bug landed on the man's hand just as Pitch told him Death stayed bug-like and feeling a little sorry for the bug for getting flung off like that.

Very cool comic! Just FYI: You have 'specie' as the singular of species, but species is both the singular and the plural form... There's no such word as 'specie'.

The world of insects is a frightening and bizarre world. Also, the one where dying quick often isn't an option.

And spiders. *shudders* Sooooo many spiders! >.<

The bug world is fascinating. And considering the amount that dies everyday...that may be why Death stayed "bug like".

Is the small bug actually Death, or just a poor innocent bug that just landed at the right time? Even I'm not sure.

Bugs strangely enough don't bother me, I try to take most of the ones I find outside. Although recently, a lot of tiny ants have showed up in our kitchen in the basement and I have been reluctantly squashing them with a paper towel--but only if I see a lot of them at once. If there's merely one or two, I'll let them travel onwards.

rufftoon In reply to glowworm56 [2013-04-14 03:43:43 +0000 UTC]

I'm sort of okay with many types of bugs. Not all of them though, and they'll still make me jump 20 feet in the air if they crawl on me.
And maggots are gross. Blagh!

My grandparents' old house would get infested with ladybugs in the winter. When I stayed overnight, I made sure to keep my head under the covers, just in case.

That was one reason to stay under the covers. The other had to do with things from when I was little in that bedroom. I swear the shadows moved by themselves. Then I found out that some family members had died in that room...

It also doesn't help that as an avid reader of true ghost stories, many of them involve things appearing right beside or above the bed. Though the only thing I have to worry about at home is the cat climbing up and trying to get me to play while I'm trying to sleep.

And there are the spiders, sliding down their silk thread, from the ceiling to your head while you sleep...

Ooh, creepy. I've read that you're never more than a foot from a spider, no matter where you are.

Though it would be worse if you woke up with a tarantula on you.

Very clever thought, and one that makes sense when you think about it. Death would take the form of something you'd never notice until the bite.

And let's not talk how bugs also loves corpses. Helps with decomposition, amongst other things.

death being a bug makes sense. I mean the BLACK DEATH was caused by a lot of fleas deciding the human body
was a great place live.

If it's on the ceiling above my bed, I freak out.
Then again, I once held a tarantula and thought it was the greatest thing.

I don't want them in my house, but if they're outside it's perfectly fine (as I chant to myself "spiders eat mosquitoes, spiders eat mosquitoes").
