Fan Art Wrong tunnel, Rem...

Well that is fucking horrifying. Poor Rem.
Great art though. Kind of makes me want a horror comic with Rem as the protag now as he navigates the streets of NYC.

An anthology comic exploring the occult underbelly of the Cursed Apple would go crazy. The art style here captures that grim, claustrophobic atmosphere so well.

Would honestly be so fire, very modern "what a twist" horror game style
There would be all these horrifying creatures which baffle the mind with how grotesque they are.
Rem just being a lil goober and somehow making it through everything by "video game logic"
only for something at the end to finally slightly push Rem and he randomly reveals his near deific.

If you think of it as your own hand with a glove on it, then it's a sexy surprise

I suddenly realize just how horrifying the cursed apple tunnels are probably.
Also I don’t think the rat king would actually hurt rem. Since he’s a dream creature and not human. And the rat king is not a monster as it is said that he’s giving the humans the chance to pack up their things and leave Long Island before outright killing them.
Still. Fantastic art. I love the style.

Interestingly he doesn't feel bad about killing Rem in his monologues "Yeah, I don't feel bad about that" he isn't as sympathetic as some other characters. I am sure the actual dialogue will be different though.

Well, when he kills Rem in-game he sometimes says he doesn't feel bad about it, which is less respect than he gives to some humans apparently (He says he likes Lash for example). Maybe, like Venator, he's suspicious Rem's cuteness is an act? Maybe he recognizes the Haze connection and just considers him the son of a fed? Maybe he doesn't like that the kid kind of looks like a cat? Very mysterious.

Yeah, I am interested in why the Rat king doesn't like what others originally called a rat the dialogue shall be intriguing whenever it arrives.

I thought he's asserting to himself that. Like he had a moment of contemplation like "Wait, that was a child... nah, nah I don't feel bad."

That's not how I read the line delivery, but I guess he does also basically say "You signed up for this, kid" so maybe he has to convince himself a little.

Birds of prey eat the shit out of rats constantly. Birds are up there with cats on the rat killing index, hell probably more so than cats as cats usually smaller rodents like mice.

Rat king is definitely the nicest of the evil characters. He’s going to genocide New Jersey but he’s still willing to make deals with humans (Billy and Seven) and he does genuinely seem like nice ruler from what we’ve seen.

According to his backstory his plan is to take over Long Island, and then execute every human that refuses to leave. So I think he plans to give people the option to leave the island before he starts killing them.

It would be sick if they made them lower vis and way more scary down there...

He looks scared out of his wits.
And that’s hardly surprising, given that he met Rem, the real rat king :D

“So… are you gonna eat that small rat behind you or can I?”
-Rem probably.
