I like the last panel, it's a call back to how she stompted Killboss way back during Allison's training.

More critically...the writer in me hasn't liked how the narration/dialogue for characters has become inconsistent.

Solomon's use of "that man" is a verbal tic that showed up and made sense for Maya referring to Incubus, but unless Solomon here is Maya in disguise it doesn't sound "natural" for him to use it with Jagganoth--it doesn't sound like a phrase suited to him.

I suspect it's Abbadon accidentally slipping out of character...this comic has been a marathon, and I get the impression he's getting pretty tired drawing it for so long. In comics, characters are largely defined by how they're drawn and look, verses in prose where all you have to go on is narration and dialogue. When I do a character, all I have is words, so I have to get them right. I can see how, with a comics storyteller, it might slip under the radar if they're tired.
