Sequel is going to be any month now edition.

>What's Worm?

Worm is a web serial, an online piece of literature which is basically a massive E-book.
https://parahumans.wordpress.com/

>What's Worm about?

Worm is about an alternate universe where superheroes exist, and is notable for having justifications for why superhero tropes exist in the setting.

>Why is /co/shit capestuff here?

Worm is a novel about capeshit and /co/ had a big breakdown over where worm threads should be placed. Last thread got moved to /lit/ an instantly broke /lit/'s bump limit so no we're making a new thread.

Dragon's getting pretty fucked up. A lot of damage from Defiant freeing her, and far more from breaking free of Teacher. Wouldn't be surprised if she's far less powerful than she was.

Sleeper.

Oh hey, it's the guy who is either a namefag or can't figure out how to sage right. Sorry "SAGE", but the mods have spoken. Worm lives here now, and with Worm 2 on the horizon (as well as not having to worry about being moved anywhere) you can expect to see a lot of threads about it in the future.

Are you talking about the fanfic?

As far as we know, Teacher didn't die in GM and is still around.
Simurgh's baby Eidolon was bbq'd, but she's still there, and no one knows what kind of plans she'll have now that she doesn't have to be a Worthy Opponent and doesn't have Scion to plan around.
Abaddon/Apollyon is still floating around in space somewhere.

Global problems are hard to wrap my head around because Earth post GM isn't just Bet now, it's a dozen alternate Earth dimensions, each with hundreds or thousands of settler communities.

We shouldn't see another Entity, given that their usual MO is to make it blatantly obvious where they've gone to spare each other wasting resources traveling to a portion of space that's already been harvested. Maybe Abaddon shows back up and reveals the the entire plot of Worm 1 was all according to plan.

He'll be in Worm 2 at some point, trust my itchy elbow on this.


Number Man and Contessa survived GM. What will Contessa do now that she has finished her path? She spent her whole life working for it, and now it's finished. Wildbow's MO is to escalate, and if Contessa shows up in W2, that's him slamming the instant escalation button in the story.

Wildbow explained Jack Slash's trigger event in a WoG (abusive parents, moleman childhood), and when asked about Harbinger's, he said he wanted to save it for the future.

Maybe we'll get some backstory on Number Man in Worm 2?

who /sleeper/ here?

Greyboy deserved a better ending

the protagonist will not be as good as Taylor because Taylor's power is literally perfect for what Wildbow was trying to do and he won't be able to top it.

I really hope the MC isn't a moralfag and i reaaally hope its not theo.

what insane powers will the new shards make? anything that bypasses the Manton effect is pretty crazy, but there could be many more endbringer level threats. Speaking of endbringers whats the Simurgh's endgame?

Panacea and bonesaw are both literal gods but are too retarded to know it.

Kind of. She was afraid of becoming a villain like her father, and felt that if she started flexing the real extent of her power she would slide down a slope into degeneracy, which is exactly what happened. The S9 made her break her rules, and it ended with her raping her sister (physically and mentally) and turning her into a flesh garden during the act.
