well I am suitably impressed...
Blacklillian's was pretty dark (I guess one can afford that when the plan is to wish everyone back alive at the end) I thought she treated the extended cast of characters well without losing focus on her main confrontation. The battle of philosophy between Karl and the Doc as he fended off the statue's ambush strikes was interesting and engaging. The ending of the fight was a cool solution with the magic absorption idea. I do have to agree that the ending of the comic of a whole was very cliche but I can give it a pass...
Unknowns are a real rush, the fights were varied and interesting, with each phase of karl's opponents switching and using a style appropriate to that character. There was still plenty of story and good use of the extended cast... even more extended as Euria got some unexpected screen time. I will need to watch it a few more times to try and catch what some of the quickly flashed imagery was... I can't tell if the red head was killed by other humans and he killed them or if he killed the red head... either way I'm guessing that despite his 'death' a win by unknown would show that the pieces of karl were brought back to the castle of nations (just my opinion). But even if not it is the end of a very interesting and enjoyable villain.
Both are amazing works...it's really hard to sway either way on this, I'd be happy for either contestant to win. I'm still left wanting to know more about karl, it's amazing how engaging he is with as little as we really know about him at his core. (hollow though he may be *bad pun*)
