SE7EN is a movie directed by David Fincher, with two detectives investigating a series of ritualistic murders inspired by the seven deadly sins… never mind.


Occurrence of seven:

• The Septimus Lodge: septimus mean seven in Latin.
  
  
• The Septimus Lodge has a Council of Seven.
  
  
• In the Compendium, under the Q’qr man depiction there is a poem starting by “and the seven became one”.
  
  
• There are seven infernals.
  
  
• The pyramid found by Weezy has seven hieroglyphs.
  

We know that two cosmic beings play a cosmic chess game, with earth as a not very valuable pawn. There are rules in that game, one of them being (I think) that they can use who or what they find available for their purpose on that pawn. This is the way they found and used Glaecken and big bad R. The Dog Lady seems to be an independent local (earth linked) being.

That makes 3 players that we know of, two cosmic (one bad, one indifferent) and one local (good).

Could there be another player? the Otherness could have created the Q’qr using another player(s): the Seven. The Seven would thus be a local being, obviously bad (though you might have a different opinion, depending on your amount of oDNA), forced or lured or compacted by the otherness into Q’qr creatures. When the scientist-magicians of the First Age eradicated the female Q’qr, the male Q’qr mated with human women and diluted the Q’qr bloodline.

The Septimus encourages the Kicker movement while Glaecken is worried about seeing so many tainted in one place. The Kicker “evolution” is aimed at dissimilation, which can only mean dissimilation from the human race, with Jonah’s “barnyard breeding” aiming at begetting a baby with as much as oDNA as possible, i.e. a pure-blood Q’qr.

What use could be a pure-blood Q’qr (apart from making an addition to the Peabody Ozymandias Traveling Circus & Oddity Emporium)? Big bad R and the Septimus seem to relish the idea, and the Dog Lady thinks it might be good or bad. It could be:

• Big bad R would obviously sup on the terror and the havoc wreaked if Q’qr were to resurrect. And remember: at the end of Bloodline, when he finds Dawn on the Brooklyn Bridge and makes her enter in his car, he explain her that the doors have children security because he had to transport young passengers. Maybe Jonah fathered more oDNA triads and Big bad R found the children.
  
  
• The Seven would see it as a way to reverse the process, in order to free themselves
  
  
• The Dog Lady could hope that if the Seven freed themselves, they would fight the Otherness in order to avoid a remake.
  

Also, the seven infernals could have been created by the Seven.

What do you think?

Just throwing this out there to see what the Jackaholics' views are:

What do you think about a Repairman Jack video game? It could be done in several different formats and you could have to decide WWJD in the current situation. You could have interaction with Abe in order to get your equipment, that you select, and the levels could be based on the series of novels, or new ideas. Any thoughts???

I posted this in the What Are You Reading Thread but I think Dark Dreamers: Facing The Masters Of Fear deserves its own thread to reach a wider audience. It is a coffe table book by Beth Gwinn and Stanley Wiater. Beth photgraphed many writers, artists and filmmakers who dabble in 'The Dark Fantastic' and Wiater gathered the thoughts. I include it here because FPW is one the subjects-it is a cool picture of him and I'm wondering where it was taken and what exactly he is kneeling in front of.

It was interesting to find the common themes of exploring darkness that exists within each of us in order to better see the light that surrounds us and that horror people, by and large, are some of the nicest folks you'll ever meet. All in all, a very intersting book.

Hello, everyone. I recently took delivery on an advanced copy of the new RJ book "By the sword", which is a soft cover and seems to be a highly abridged version of the finished product. just over 300 pages long, and larger than normal print. However, that is not my concern.
The Ebay seller had sold this as an "Autographed" copy, and I have no way of knowing if this is truely FPW's signature. Is there somewhere online that I can view a sample of his autograph and compare?

Thanks, Lexator

Update: fixed URL. Thanks.

[SIZE="3"]Looks like Jack will have to visit LA in RJ-13 (once again, I don't have a working title) and he'll want a pocket carry for his short stay there. Suggestions? Nothing smaller than 9mm, preferably .40. [/SIZE]

Ok, here goes Im new to the board, but am on my 2nd read thru on most of the man's books (more on some), but am focusing on the jack/adversary works. As I just finished taking 2 bar exams I might be reading too much into this, but I noticed in Hosts that the Russian women mentions in Jack's fever state that "all dead except one, and he is too old," now I obviously know who the "one" is, but a) am i reading too much into this, b) did someone come before G (referring to someone in demonsong), c) is she referring to The Twins (I checked Hosts comes after Conspiracies), or d) Am i just parsing words. Forgot to mention before on the above spoiler warning, I remember someone, probably one of the Ladies mentioning that there had been only 1 i.e. G and have not yet read By the Sword, so if Im missing something there...
Thanks

I am a new Jackaholic, and have searched myspace and similiar websites for graphics for writing scripts for different themes and so forth. Well, there are not any out there that I could find, so I went about making my own graphics, editing and revising the codes to fit a theme. If anyone would like graphics or codes for their myspace, or similiar websites please feel free to contact me, and I will email you the codes or you can go to my page, whichever you prefer. If anyone has any other graphics that I have not seen, I would love to have them, as I am constantly updating and changing it around. I just picked up the WWJD graphic, and will be making that into a contact or banner. In the works will be a scrolling slide across the top of the page with the RJ series of novels. I cannot put any links on here as of yet (I have not met my quotas of Posts...lol) but you can reach me here if you would like.

I would like to see an actual Official RJ Myspace page with a "Q&A of WWJD", a monthly blog on what RJ has been doing, and links to shirts and RJ merchandise. I do not know if Mr. Wilson would be interested in this, but it is an idea to throw out there.

I personnally am getting more involved in computer animation and would like to do an animated series starting with "The Tomb" and going through each novel. They may be taking forever to make an RJ movie, but why can't we make an animated one ourselves? Just wonder what the group would think of it? Thank you for your time in reading my post, and I look forward to talking more...

Crackle.com has all the miniclips for Rescue Me. I just spent some time LMFAO!

Hey, new to all this so forgive if this is common knowledge. Did a thread search but came up with no leads.

Just finished Reprisal (New English Library Hardback 1991) and something strange occurs on page 322. A paragraph referencing Repairman Jack suddenly appears quite out of the blue, when the main narrative of the beginning of chapter thirty concerns Lisl. Its awkwardness is like a sink-hole with malformed words appearing around the intrusion.

What's going on indeed?

Early 90s typesetting error?

Have i missed out on any further jack references?
