Late night thought but I was thinking about Endtown and Dino mutants. In Endtown the answer for why they exist is ‘lmao cartoon’ but for Topside Tales I’ve been leaning more on the fact animals were disappearing and the mutations started as a connection.

So why dinosaurs? Ever seen Jurassic Park? In this retro-future inspired setting with flying cars and laser guns you mean to tell me NOBODY cloned or made dinosaurs?

I should probably write my thoughts more as I post here given threads are monthly instead of weekly, gives insight into my process and all as I chug along with updates. I like Tumblr lets me post multiple gifs to supplement my infinite ramble.

I entertained the idea of showing only the aftermath of Burbank speaking to the topside crews about the brain harvesting Topsiders did for their tech. I decided against skipping the actual reveal because showing the reactions of these people trying to survive is a good contrast to casually showing off Bernard and Maria finding the lost truck and dittos only pages prior.

Topside Tales has a lot of dramatic irony in that the audience knows what’s going on before the characters, I realize I like clueing in the audience and winking at them while the characters hem and haw over something someone else knows but has no means to share. Maybe it’s because it contrasts Endtown where it perpetually keeps people in the dark about silly things like character motivation or what the fuck happened to Benny (yes I am STILL on that) until the last second where it cheesily tries jumpscaring you with a giant eyeball.

Oooooh scary!!!

Eye aside, I wanted to die drawing that big room shot of all the anthros listening to Burbank, I hated myself a lot for making it. After the fact I’m glad I did because composition wise it breaks up all the shots I’m doing and grounds the audience to the space a bit more.

Finally, uhhhh sometimes I wonder if I’m making Dr. Burbank too perfect or nice given he isn’t as shitty as many many many MANY other people in Endtown or Topside Tales but then I remember that not everyone in the world is a miserable amoral piece of shit and that sets me back to being relaxed again. I can have good people just…exist! Wow! Being a writer is so damn amazing.

That’s all! I’ll yap again when I’ve done more updates!

Endtown on Twitter?

I dunno if it's me or not but searching for Endtown on Twitter doesn't pull any results now. I used to be able to find tweets mentioning it, even if they were old, but the entire history of it is just inaccessible or wholesale gone now. I usually check in now and then, mostly to see if there's any chatter about the comic or some status update. Very rarely I get treated to a new viewpoint about it but it's always fun to see.

Man the threads really don’t live long anymore, do they? Not that I’m that surprised, the hanger ons have been dwindling down as of late and content has been extraordinarily thin. I’m not really helping in that regard either!

So what’s up for me? I overwhelmed myself promising too much and overloaded (unsurprisingly) which gave me a big fat mental block. Add a dash of disappointment over Alan’s whole turnout. Top that off with Baldur’s Gate 3 being right there to eat up my free time and you have a perfect recipe for good old CA being distracted with something consistently.

This newest update really is some shit though. I shouldn’t be at all surprised Eye is still around (in fact in the threads I brought up how Eye was frozen in Eden when Marx was doing timestop bullshit a few years ago when Wally died earlier on) but I guess a part of me WAS surprised because I assumed Aaron was going to drop it and quietly kick it under the rug. Guess not.

This doesn’t mean I’m exactly happy with Eye reappearing, you’d think with all that nonsense grandstanding Marx did disparaging Eye that we’d be free of it and face the real villain of the story now. Maybe he couldn’t think of anything to fill that void? El oh el.

I miss TT, I think I’ll binge through it and see if I can muster up some updoots. We’ll see!

This is so very cute! Always a fan of your seasonal costume designs :)

Oh my god you even have Terry as a first mate, this is AMAZING

This new part of the Eden arc is probably the most entertaining bar none for me in that it inspires me to draw dumb crap. Character is about to lose a hand? He's now coping by taking on a pirate persona and going all in as a consequence of the stress snapping his mind like a pretzel stick. Maybe I'll draw a Greyhook versus Hollister image sometime.

>"What's happening?" Quickest explanation is that Eden was in a reality bubble the friendly Topsiders contained Wally and the gang in popped so it's returning to what reality it expects to be. Since it was supposed to be in rock, Eden is filling in cube by cube with rock. >Tom and Jerry Official Endtown explanation is that the mutation situation was caused by the Endtown reality and the cartoon reality colliding and making an unholy fusion of the two. It's multiverse idiocy. >Holly enjoyer Impeccable tastes. >Frankie enjoyer Even more impeccable tastes. >What happened to Al and Gustine? They stayed in Endtown. Al's implied fate was to be victimized by anti-human anthro racists but that angle was dropped for limpdick WOLVES BAD plotline. Nobody knows if they're okay or not. >What happened to the Typhoid Maries? Essentially persona-non-grata because they make the multiverse thing extremely confusing by 'not existing' in the cartoon one. Typhoids were more important when the storyline was about what it means to be human and inhuman which isn't what the comic is about anymore.

OK I’m starting reading end town. I finished it in an afternoon and night so like seven years of comics I think. Because I definitely have a life and I have one thing I have to say I fucking hate Aaron Marx that doctor who ripoff and like what happened to petey and stuff I was really into it until after the milk trial and unity then fuck they do that to Holly. I’m just really mad anyone who sees this and also read in town. Please explain to me the actual because I’m still confused what’s happening because there was like some sort of 1940 cartoon like Tom and Jerry I don’t understand and apparently they use Holly again as bait, but as trixie and fucking kirblee go die in a hole …. I also like flask. She was hot. She did nothing wrong yeah well at least I have topsider tales now ottor girl is superior to lizard well, that’s enough I will return to sonic stuff…
