I’m not sure if Raccoon and Hole stuck or not. Glados, Reshiram, Nintendo and X-Box are all for real. I guess that’s 9. Meanest will be the 10th, so that’s it. They all have names now.
I called dibs on a Medusa a while back. However I did hit a bit of a snag with my Dibs on a petrified mermaid statue something about face stabbings so I gave up on that. Still an adorable Medusa to play video games and eat junk food with sounds fun.
I know this comment thread is around 3 years old by now, and I doubt many will read this, but I figured I would leave a reply anyway. The only named medusa that was not listed is Hearts, and I’m not sure if Vengeance/Jealous counts since it was a guest strip. Although I cannot find the page where one was named as X-Box . . .which page was that on?
So all named medusas at this point (canon and otherwise) would be: Gorgon, Modest, Raccoon, Hole, Science, Shut Up, GLaDoS, Reshiram, Twilight, Nintendo, X-Box, Hearts, Hiatus, Vengeance/Jealous, & Castle. That brings the total named medusas to 15, even more if you include the numerous medusas aptly named Medusa that tragically became Gorgon’s appetizers. . .
There’s also Meanest (canonical but not yet seen!). I don’t know if the Gorgon’s family name is actually Medusa. In fact, there may be generation names instead of family names. So Modest, Racoon, X-Box, etc are from the Medusa generation. Gorgon and her sisters would all be named Gorgon and be from the Gorgon generation. Maybe. Or maybe Medusa is really their family name. Or species name. I don’t really know.
Also, I have no memory of Hearts. Where did that come from? And Hiatus isn’t actually canon I think. Maybe.
Oh, thanks for the thorough response. Didn’t realize Gorgon and Medusa could be taken as generation names; by not yet seen, does that mean that Modest’s silly sisters will be seen once again in a future story arc 😀 ? Hearts is actually from the bottom panel of the same page that GLaDoS, Reshiram, Twilight, and Nintendo were named by Modest- the url titled it as “Knock-First”, and the only reason she called her self Hearts was because she saw the Prince wearing white undergarments with a pattern of red hearts on them after Modest opened the wrong door at the wrong time ^^’.

It is kinda nice to see Modest have to be the “big sister” (if she isn’t already), and get all the others moving. Considering they have the intellegence of livestock.
It means she’s matured some over the course of the comic. She understands the severity of the situation and is acting responsibly… or as responsibly as she herself is capable of. Kinda amusing to me to see the other medusas cower in front of her rage.
“Don’t eat anyone you care about.” Life advice.
Indeed. Except when they tell you to eat them to live. =D
Ummm, you should probably not get in a plane wreck with me. Ever. I often get hungry.
or a long car trip.
Friend:But mcdonalds is jusr a block away
Miles:But i’m hungry now so…-
Good advice…but I think I can eat my sister when she steals my coffee! -_-‘
That sounds way dodgier than you meant it, I’m sure.
The tragedy is, they just have to wait until they’re all grown up. Then they can eat anyone they want to :(.
I really, really hope some way is found for some caring to survive into adulthood.
Ever had someone who’s mean to you “because I love you”? Needless to say, I feel a bit eaten at times. Some people really can’t tell the difference.
Except for when you’re marooned and your friend drew the short straw, then you can eat them.
No no no, the rules for eating people to stay alive clearly dictate that you eat the first person to die.
It’s darwinism in action. Only the strong may survive. And fat; the fat may survive too.
If I could ‘like’ this, I totally would…. **has spent too much time on Facebook**
Poor little confused Medusas! How many have names now–Castle, Science and Shut Up are the ones I know…

What about Twilight? And I thought Meanest was a name they gave to Modest.
I forgot about Twilight.
Hiatus was my favorite! How can that not be canon?
Aww. If more are saved, you should have them get named after constant commenters.
But I’m selfish.
Still tho. Chaos would be a great name. Davidicus… well… we can’t all be lucky. T-T
(*likes the name*)
maybe I’ll start an “Adopt-a-medusa” program.

…. DOOOO EEEETTT!….
*Gasp* I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A MEDUSA!!! 😀
….Can I name one, PLLLLEEEEAAASSSEEE?!?!?!?! I have a lot of name ideas!

Thats right. I forgot.
And yes, Modest’s sisters will return.
Pfft! I feel like Medusa is channeling a little bit of Jaymz here, haha!
Yeah, well.
You wouldnt be the same Jaymz who wrote a nightmarish Tenchi Muyo fanfic would you?
I don’t know what that is, haha.
There’s only ten of them? Somehow, I thought there were about twenty, at least ….
There were a bunch more back in the cave, but only 10 came with Modest.
The others happened to run into maddest who was in the castle beating up guards and followed her out.
But the sheep mock me for not having the ability for self-awareness.

Aww, Modest’s feelings are showing! Hearing her sisters say that must have made her think of her mother.
There are still more of those medusas back in the cave? Then Mom snake probably isn’t even going to miss them.
One of my absolute favorite shirts says this on the back:
“Bring a compass, it’s awkward when you have to eat your friends.”
I think that saying was on the Donner family coat of arms.
“My name is Castle!”
I’ve seen that show and she looks nothing like him.
I was thinking that too.
Remember kids, Don’t eat you’re friends.
barely contains the uncontrolled laughter and also
FINDING NEMO MOMENT!:
“fish are friends not food”
had to be said
YOU ARE AWESOME! That is exactly whet I thought! Bruce is very cool. 🙂
