there are 5 humanoid gods in total, and 2 non-humanoids
the one in the block is the goddess on the bottom left, based on the ornate harpin
"lord incubus" seems to be one of the non-humanoids, based on the size of their throne
Solomon David is still pretty easy to make out in both pages
the one with the melting/painted face... I'ma say the second on the bottom right? if we assume that the placing of the faces in the third panel correspondes with the location of the gods in the second panel, it would seem to fit with the robed figure with the growths beneath their cloak and the empty, maggot-filled eye sockets, meaning there seems to be something wrong with their body
I'm guessing the "grand dragon" is the humanoid with the masked face, based simply on the fact that their throne, while imposing, isn't big enough to fit the two non-humanoid gods
the one in the ornate clothing who's smoking a pipe will, therefor, be the deity on the bottom-most right
which leaves us with a missing non-humanoid godhead, which I'm guessing parted ways unamicably with the group last time, based on the cracks in the table where their empty place is

I also really like that Solomon David is the only one there without any attendants and also has the coolest crown.
Strange that mask-face isn't there, the dudes that abducted Allison's boyfriend and did the decapitating were all wearing masks like his, I woulda thought they'd be more involved (assuming the centerpiece there is the boyfriend).
And I think you're right about Incubus being the four-eyed one, the consort's attendants seem to be wearing masks based on his face.
The page after that one shows all of them before their corruption, can't show it do to being NSFW
Anyways, they all seem to be based on the 7 vices, Solomon is pride due to Mottom making fun of him for believing he's still the hero despite all the bad things that have happened after the truce; Mottom is Gluttony due to the author's comment on her.
‘Our lady’s quite a portly one,
But rarely does she eat.
She cracks apart the bones of God,
And sucks off all the meat.’
– Bard’s rhyme
The guy in the block might be sloth since you know, he's stuck in a block of something; the Grand dragon might be wrath due to his throne being all fucked up with scratches, and Incubus is obviously lust.

huh, I honestly didn't make the connection that these were the same 7 demiurges
probably because of how different they all look
the portly one with the mask grew to be huge
I'm guessing they're the one who'll represent wrath, if the 7 sins analogy is accurate
I don't think the Grand Dragon is wrath because, if he was, I don't think he'd have fostered a bureaucracy mighty enough to represent him in godly summits
since it's a title, I'm guessing the Grand Dragon is Mammon, a.k.a. Greed; it'd fit the theme, and would make the one melty one with the painted face Envy, which would also make sense, she they seem to be trying to copy what they lack

something to wonder - do the keys open and close the gate from a single universe to Throne, or can you use them to travel to any world you want? I don't see how conquest would be possible otherwise, if each of the kings was the only one who could travel from their home to throne and back; and also how Zoss and his pursuers were able to travel to Allison's world (unless there's a twist there we're not yet privy to)

changed my mind: it seems the colors of the demiurges' keys matches the color of their spoken text - that'd make Incubus, the pink/light red one, human, and would make the Dragon the four eyed cat thing (which would explain the scratches on the chair)
For those interested in the so-far-unseen Demiurges of Kill Six Billion Demons, the author has some posts about them on tumblr.
JAGGANOTH, the God eater, lord of rage, the seventh Demiurge.
Pankrator Jagganoth is his own fortress of blood and horn. He is the greatest warrior creation has ever known, a brutal tyrant-king, unconquerable and unassailable, the sign of his passing the crack of bones being turned to jelly and blood boiled to vapor. Men do not know true terror until they have faced the ultimate monstrosity.
What is divinity but force multiplied by fear? What do men worship other than their greatest monsters?

and we clearly have four of those, including the one inside the block

As in, Geas is the kind of Knight
One of the stories mentions a Mendicant Knight, so it seems like the name of the order, rather than a person.

It does sort of look like him, though
I honestly though we'd never see him again
I'm constantly flabbergasted by how well the author manages to nail the prose and style of mythological narrative
The repetition of tasks with slight variation each time, leading up to an eventual realization as the moral of the story
It is just so perfectly nailed

it's not a very good one, tho

I have a bad feeling about this chill octopus man
I'm assuming it was Pankrator Jagganoth
Yaknow, because his title and name mean "Almighty Juggernaut"
