RRR, Digimon & Bionicles (ft. Cheesy Manfredo) - The Pro Crastinators Podcast, Episode 356
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
The hosts of The Pro Crastinators Podcast begin by addressing their recent break from recording due to Easter celebrations and inclement weather, before transitioning into a spirited discussion about the film *RRR*, which one host praises highly for its emotional resonance, action sequences, and cultural authenticity, particularly contrasting it favorably against *Everything Everywhere All at Once*. The conversation quickly broadens to cover various pop culture interests, including a detailed analysis of the *Digimon* character Gabumon, where the speakers debate its complex design elements such as extra limbs and wolf skin, jokingly referencing fan lore about its crucifixion. They also reflect on their own childhood evolution from an interest in dinosaurs and dragons to anime and *Animorphs*, while noting that while they appreciate *Digimon*'s intricate world-building and artistic growth, *Pokémon* remains more accessible to Western audiences due to its simpler team-based structure.
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to the challenges of independent comic creation and publishing strategies. One host shares his struggles with ADHD affecting marketing efforts for projects like *Clarissa* and *Beescapades*, alongside a controversial Jesus-themed comic that upset some followers, while also recounting a conflict with the "Cartoonist Cooperative" organization regarding the rejection of his work *Make Paglachi*. He argues that this rejection was hypocritical given the organization's prior promotion of the comic on social media, suggesting it stemmed from interpersonal friction rather than quality issues. To navigate these hurdles, the speakers outline plans for their own anthology project, "Perfect Comic Party," which aims to utilize reader voting systems and Google Forms for feedback, while debating the viability of print magazines in an era where self-publishing via pre-orders is often safer than relying on major publishers like Fantagraphics who may sell very few copies of indie titles.
The discussion further delves into the publishing industry's economic realities and content creation ethics, with hosts expressing a preference for avoiding broad licensing clauses that allow platforms to distribute user content without clear compensation. They acknowledge the necessity of balancing artistic purity with commercial "cash cow" projects like merchandise or lectures, citing creators who refuse lucrative opportunities despite potential success. Alongside these business considerations, the podcast covers recent developments in *One Piece*, including Blackbeard Pirates acquiring new Devil Fruits, Koby's capture, and Aokiji joining the crew after leaving the Marines, leading to theories about Moria's survival and his ability to manipulate shadows. The hosts also explore Sanji's romantic history with Viola and Pudding from Dressrosa, speculating on potential future reunions or marriages, while noting the series' generally chaste approach to character intimacy despite Sanji's famous nosebleeds.
As the episode concludes, the hosts celebrate the five-year anniversary of their podcast, joking about upcoming segments involving *Death Note* references and absurd imagery like genitals in blenders, before sharing listener voicemails that poke fun at their rivalry and past failed comic projects. They wrap up by promoting their Patreon, recommending *RRR* as a superior cinematic experience to other recent releases, and providing a plug for Nate's book, *Concise Storytelling*. The final moments include a lighthearted Minecraft-themed skit featuring an AI voice named Steve attempting to mine a sacred block, encapsulating the show's blend of serious industry analysis with humorous banter and fan engagement.

I won't bless that guy that's the song
about that [ __ ]
[Music]
well it's been a week since no podcast
yeah it was easy
I hope it's been worth it sorry guys
that was my fault I'm the reason Rose
from the grave no I know yeah
dang
um Ben what did you give up for um Ash
Wednesday did you give up anything
there's sort of smoking weed uh you did
huh smoking weed for Ash Wednesday yeah
I gave it up for my entire life
because Ash Wednesday is just that every
Wednesday I give it up you're real Ash
your real Ash head yeah I I used to be I
put I put my blunt out on my forehead
and I said ah there's a no more I don't
need it anymore
that um either the doctor Manhattan
thing where you you drew the symbol on
your forehead but you used the blunt and
you made a weed Leaf yeah yeah yeah yeah
that's that's exactly right I drew the
entire uh tetrahydracana binol molecule
through a complicated diagram I'll do it
I'll do a symbol that better represents
me and it will be one I respect
for 20.
um recently it'll be one I respect draws
the Tesla logo
recently a passenger a lift passenger
gave me weed he gave me free weed that's
that's spectacular and a jar just
because um that's
yeah
because you're based yeah it seems like
a bad business model it seems like
you're losing money do this as long as
okay first of all as long as you've got
it in addition to payments okay he
already said well you can't you can't
like jump into the car until you
actually pay for the app like the app
has your cards or your paid anyway
you know
so you're gonna give me money anyway
and um here's I guess I was just talking
to him about Society I was telling about
society and the problems with society
and it's kind of like this guy's kind of
based I should give him some weed and it
works out perfectly because I ran out
so yep it just does work it does work
out perfectly got refilled yep life be
like that sometimes
she gets sugar no I don't need sugar no
sugar high that's what I'm chasing
yeah yeah no more no more weed now only
sugar just glue glucose oh what's it
called glucose glucose I tried
um okay in my pursuit of a perfect of a
perfect licorice I am
I changed I changed my strategy up and I
have create I've created something
called rather than use sugar like a
[ __ ] [ __ ] I have created invert
sugar do you know what that is salt
invert sugar
and I've created anti-sugar okay it's
it's actually it sounds less complicated
than it is it's just you put sugar in
water
you'll you ever make rock candy you know
when you put sugar in water and then you
cook it down it like crystallizes yeah I
have not done that but I know that yes
okay yeah well apparent well if you add
a little bit of acid I guess it like
chain it like reverses the molecular
structure or something it changes the
molecular structure such that it does
not do that anymore and that's how you
can you can cook sugar down into like a
thick gloopy syrup down into what down
into what wheat confectioners call the
softball stage of uh sugar reduction
so shut up shut the hell up
hello
section Aries they're so [ __ ] silly
these patissies as they look down their
nose at me uh so I cooked uh this I made
a jar of a softball stage invert sugar
and I tried making licorice I tried
making a Twizzler with it it was still
too soft but it was much smoother do you
believe it it was much smoother than uh
what the ones I had done with uh with
refined sugar so that's an improvement
uh
oh yeah
yeah like a senior citizen Ben you
I wow I really thought you were gonna
say you're like Walter White because
everyone says wow Ben you're like Walter
White oh yeah I bet you want me to
compare you to Walter White I bet you
love it you'd be you'd be like the
eighth you'd be like you'd be like the
eighth person to do it so you know is
that because you don't have any hair
anymore because I have no hair and
because I make concoctions you live in
New Mexico if I live in New Mexico I
have cancer
um yeah that's an upcoming my wife hates
me yeah true
your wife does is he um did he ever do
any rapes did uh did you get any rapes
no no he did he he did in a sexual
assault I remember that
against Skyler yeah yeah well you know
she was pregnant she didn't want it and
she was just going too hard right what
the [ __ ] he thought he could get a horny
time whatever he wanted and he's kind of
like a wife consent I'm a cool gang
banger drug dealer now you have to
respect me and you know
Breaking Bad is pretty cool like that
where it's like yeah you know nerds kind
of do ruin everything when you think
about it
especially like you know drug drug
dealing they ruin it they should say not
me though not you no you're different
not me though not me though
um
uh uh you know that so yeah oh yeah you
know that roller coaster that um is
designed to kill you you mean Phantom's
Revenge no sure that's a real roller
coaster and of an experience reading
that no you'll be dead by the end of it
no did you know there's an actual roller
coaster called Phantom's Revenge
oh I don't know if it's called it's not
called Phantoms around I know three
exists the video game it pre-exists the
famous video game
okay no not that one because the one I'm
talking about doesn't exist it's like a
hypothetical like design roller coaster
it's the thing that everybody makes in
like Roller Coaster Tycoon as soon as
they boot up the game yeah basically
it's like let me I'll look for an image
for it but it's basically has like a
huge ass like ramp it goes straight up
into the air and it has like it has like
enough loot apparently like the the
loops number that it chooses is enough
to straight up kill you
saw someone tweeted out recently with
the caption yeah I would survive this oh
is it the one where like the loops get
smaller and smaller and like the
centrifugal force gets higher and higher
and eventually it turns you into a
milkshake yeah yeah starts really tall
and it goes
like a pigtail
yeah I just wouldn't let it kill me
I yeah Mr Beast should invent like
create that with his money and then and
then people can see how cool they are by
by surviving the euthanasia coaster some
good content Mr we should put
transphobes in it
I bet it's I bet it's a painless way to
go I bet you pass out well before is it
do you do you feel it when you get when
you get turned into a milkshake is that
a feeling you know I think I think you'd
have passed out well before it happened
okay this is uh I'm looking for better
there we go but yeah basically it's it's
this
of how you would feel in fact you feel
really like really uh good right at the
top and then really bad and then quit
you would you would also a good bad
alternating until you're dead it kind of
reminds me of um what is like we're not
even sure that if you like Drop
thumbnails really funny we're not even
sure that if you drop a human into a
black hole if they'll even feel it you
know like right yeah exactly sure what's
gonna [ __ ] happen to you
yeah like if your brain is halfway
through the Event Horizon do the neurons
firing even reach the other part of you
is that like is it is it just like you
what dude like what the [ __ ] that's a
really cool way to like go you know like
there was like some sort of anime where
they defeat the final guy by dropping
his ass into a black hole and he's just
getting like stretch Beyond like
infinite and it doesn't even is even
feeling it is it even like oh he's like
in this in between state of alive or
dead you know
it's so like
it's it's so confusing I've tried to
wrap my head around I've seen so many
YouTube videos trying to explain
this what you would feel at the edge of
a black hole going into it because time
stops
so like well it time dilates dilates to
to a point where it basically is like
you you don't perceive anything
happening
so would you just be sitting there no
you you would your uh the your time
would be relatively dilated compared to
an outside Observer I mean you you would
experience time for yourself moving
normally but then like you know time
would be moving really fast like outside
of of the Event Horizon does that mean
if you would be falling in and you'd see
like the universe die like outside
just can't get out
interesting
that's so cool so so like all the
photons are like flying in and you've
got to like catch them with your eyeball
otherwise they'll pass you into the into
the infinite nothing yeah yeah you got
it it's a little game you got to see how
many photons you can catch that's that's
from that's right
black holes can like get full can't they
and then they explode no they get four
they go oh I'm so full
they can't get full but they can get
empty the uh yeah the the what's the
thing with the
it's like a big swoosh of energy like
escaping a black hole and making it
shrink like the matter inside of it is
escaping as some sort of a thing it's
not a big swoosh it's a very gradual
process of uh oh what's the thing
there's a certain kind of radiation that
a black hole does emit
uh and a black hole can eventually like
radiate away all of its mass
that's cool which you would think it
couldn't do
but it does
I would survive it feeling slow I I
could probably
uh yeah I've played out to Wilds I know
my way of blind a black hole Yeah I
could I could Escape Hawking radiation
Hawking radiation
hypothetical particles formed by a black
hole's boundary yeah so I can
hypothetically survive is what you're
saying so you're saying so you're saying
it's not a hundred percent
uh what if what if things named after
people were named after their first name
instead of their last name Steve is
radiation Stephen radiation and then
like that's like Steven Universe yeah
and like mutants would be Isaacs
um the force of 20 Isaacs I guess it
wouldn't change that many things but I
just like the idea that would be a force
that is measured in job more a more
casual that'd be a pretty funny like
kind of like naming Community that'd be
a pretty funny alternate reality where
everything is the same it's just that
now we just name things based off
people's first names and that's just
like the one difference
so like the capital of the United States
is just called George as is the state
yeah yeah
um I remember there was one story I
probably mentioned this before about
alternate realities and the one
difference between the reality they jump
into is that uh Bob Dylan didn't create
the stage name Bob Dylan he just uses
regular name instead
sad a very disturbing Universe an evil
Universe if you will
um
yeah hey I watched a movie hey I watched
a movie over Easter no way uh Nate Nate
uh Nate showed me this great film you
you might have heard of it uh it's
called rrr are you familiar oh yeah I
heard it's really good and it's three
hours long so
it is three hours long it should have
been longer what is what is this film
I've heard it is an it is an Indian
action drama
well it's like about it's sort of about
like real life Indian
people but it's like a fictionalized
version of their lives where it's like
they never knew each other in real life
but the movie is like what if they did
meet each other and they were best Bros
for life and they had anime superpowers
and uh it's so good it's so cool there's
um there's big like
it's not technically a Bollywood movie
because it was made in a different
language it was made in the Telugu
language which is uh not Hindi so it's
it's something called tollywood but you
know it whatever it's an Indian movie
and it and it's got those Bollywood
style like big like Indian dance numbers
uh just in the middle of like action
scenes or like
just whenever there's just a whole bunch
of them and uh it's just so it's so
Earnest it's like
to to a western to my Western
sensibility it just comes off as having
like absolutely no sense of like irony
or like uh uh uh
self-consciousness about just like just
have the characters do a big stupid
dance number
uh after they you know have a big battle
or whatever right but but how am I
supposed to know when to laugh the
character doesn't look at the camera and
say um that just happened
um that just happened uh you're always
supposed to be laughing you're always
laughing that's that's the the goal the
job of the person next to you whenever
you're watching it yeah he's supposed to
translate to poke you in the shoulder
and say uh did you see that that just
happened guys yeah yeah
please laugh we don't need we don't need
Joss Whedon telling us that just happens
your annoying friend in the theater can
just be did you see what just happened
and you go yeah shut up trying to watch
the movie
um did you see what just happened
they're dancing can you believe that
uh uh
I don't know I want to like gush about
it I want to like uh I want to like
spoil it I want to tell you all the all
the amazing things that happen yeah in
RR
the emotions instead maybe of like
whatever
which experience
it it it's would you say it's like funny
bad good or like it's actually brilliant
it's not it's not no it's not bad at all
it in no way is it bad at all like none
of none of my enjoyment of it was ironic
like I was I was laughing with the movie
because it was very silly at times
um I like those but it's silly in a way
that just made me clap it just made me
clap and go let's maybe clap and jump
out of my seat and go yes yes
um sounds sounds good how do you spell
it is it just the letter it's the letter
R R I guess it technically stands for
Rise Roar Revolt yes
uh in them but in the movie in the movie
there's like there's there's like
chapter beginning that are like
okay so the characters are like
it starts with one that's like story and
the r is big in story and then they
introduce this one character who is the
fire and the r is big and then there's
another character who's the water and
the r is big uh but that's not what the
r stands for this is awesome they just
like are they just they just like the r
is there a pirates that goes are
there is not a pirate oh there is not a
pirate I'm sorry I I really do want to
watch it but there is a jungle man
there is a jungle man pirate
jungle man oh you lost me
you know children from the jungle
children from a book look at that
trying to think of what can I even what
can I say without uh
like you probably change your mind on it
like you probably like people with
meddling it now it made me it made me
think maybe they have a chance maybe
maybe they maybe maybe
there's something to these maybe there's
something
you know maybe maybe some brown people
are cool you know sometimes like how
some white people are cool sometimes you
know the movie is basically about how
white people are bad true bass it is
very low because it's very very woke
film
um that's awesome kind of reminds me how
every time I pick up a passenger who's
like
in the end or like a darker shade of
skin I I raise my fist in a brown power
I tell them you know how about brown
pride you
know that shot of a
the guy hold in Family Guy the guy
holding out the skin color guide yeah
that's like if you're lighter than this
you're a tourist if you're darker than
this you're a terrorist or something you
pull it you make it you make a fist you
pull out the guide if you're lighter
than this you punch them and if you're
darker than this you you fist bump nice
I think I think it I think it makes a
lot of sense uh uh at cheesy what you
the left driver in that story
um yeah
Oh I thought I thought the driver gave
gave you weed and I thought that's seems
a bit odd no I'm I was the driver the
passenger gave me weed
that's nice yeah I mean it was nice eyes
either way yeah so you know I got I got
paid and I got weed it was pretty great
because um I kind of you know I'm low
um I'm probably not gonna smoke it any
until like um I do another round of
pre-orders that's usually trying to get
really stressed out
the
the um I just okay give remember when
you and munchie reviewed s cry Ed and
you did a terrible job and you yeah uh
completely
like a normal person would and I was
like huh what's going on you watched it
you want first of all the whole premise
of Three episodes terrible you literally
did not even get to understand what the
show is about that show is about
an unlikely video how to tell a bad
anime from one episode
is about an unlikely Bromance between
the two biggest badasses in the world
and they're opposing uh ideological uh
philosophies
and uh you'd even get to that part but
that's but that's what rrr is like uh
it's like ask cry ad but Indian and good
actually even though I like escriad
so uh yeah
I don't know there's there's um
you'll be you'll be sold in the you'll
be sold in the first 15 minutes if you
uh if you turn it on I think there's a
it establishes right out the gate what
kind of movie you're in for I really
can't really can't say enough good
things about it it showed me that movies
can be good actually nice uh that's yeah
that was me when I watched the Mario
movie I was like oh movies can be good
now I I guess it JK I guess it won a an
Oscar despite being from India it won an
America and won an Oscar for uh like one
of the musical uh numbers in a fair
World it probably it should have been
like up for like best picture
I mean I'm no expert I mean it was it
was my movie of 2023
even though it came out last year I
guess but it would probably it would
have been my movie of 2022 as well you
haven't seen um you haven't seen
everything everywhere all at once
you know I did see it no I liked our no
I definitely like are better than
everything everywhere gotcha everything
everywhere was like fine it was good I
enjoyed it I thought it was very I
thought it was a very tweet
which I am not a huge fan of damn I
thought the med I thought the metaphor
was a little strained
you know it was okay it was good it's a
good movie yeah I really liked
everything everywhere you uh you might
prefer RR is even better it must be a
good year for movies
Ben clearly has a favorite of Asian
prefers East Asians
I feel like uh I feel like everything
everywhere
I don't know it felt like it was really
trying to like tell you something like
it really thought it had some something
to say rrr doesn't have anything to say
except
India [ __ ] rules and [ __ ] the British
and well that's an anime is awesome it's
probably got something to say
uh it does yeah it definitely does
um
the the end of the movie is like a big
dance ma it's like a big dance scene and
even like and the the director of the
movie starts dancing with all the
characters and while like pictures of
like Indian like political like
revolutionary figures like are like
scrolling by in the background yeah no
the movies the movies got politics that
I don't understand because I don't know
who any of these people are that's
really cool it is pretty cool
I wish more
um people would do that where like they
would uh
the cast and crew would start dancing
um that's it was cool it's like it's
like it's like it's very silly it's very
silly they don't do that in America they
don't do that in Hollywood movies
yeah they like imagine if the imagine if
the Avengers just started like doing
like an Irish jig they just all started
doing like a big jig but Ben you never I
mean you never seen the show uh
Peacemaker because that's like the intro
of the show is that Mom is all the cast
members doing like dancing to a glam
rock song It's a pretty good intro cool
yeah cool I like it I like it
like
I I can't recommend it up it's it's
three it's three hours it felt like it
felt like two one or less per hour one
hour per hour that's right
um
didn't do yeah earned every minute of it
uh I would I would even watch it again I
don't like re-watch movies but I would I
would watch it again that's how that's
how serious I am
but the quality of this film Ben
re-watching a movie I know I know that's
that's how serious wait is that John
Cena yeah John Cena's Peacemaker
his mask is on crooked
his face no the mask is straight the
face is crooked yeah I love this intro
it's pretty good I wish someone would um
um I forget the name of the kind of like
animation where there's like a little
there's like anime characters I have
people use it when they kind of make
like little Miku uh music videos but I
wish someone would like
create a template out of this and you
can just put your characters dancing to
it or something
because I think I just think it'd work
perfectly and probably catch on
but at last I do not have the time
I'm watching this Peacemaker opening
credits
I will say RR has better moves oh
definitely I mean they're not bad you
know these are all white people these
are all white people unfortunately this
is what culture
well glam rock is like a pretty pretty
white
that's that's true there's one there's
one
unfortunate the one blemish on the on RR
is that there is one good white
nice but she's not but she's not that
important you always need one good white
person kind of like in Black Panther
they have they have a good white CIA
member she's there's one there's one
good British person and it's a lady who
is maybe this maybe the maybe the
dumbest part of the movie
damn maybe the part that I think is the
dumbest but it's okay
it's fine it's funny
uh
that's nice and but she gets she gets to
dance so you know good for her that's
good yeah I feel I feel represented
um
shut up okay we've got nothing to say
don't say duh all right that's the end
of the episode goodbye you got nothing I
got nothing I don't talk about comics
for a little bit oh a little bit of
those Comics I've been working on
Clarissa chapter five now but it's been
a little bit Rocky I've I've gotten uh
you know I don't know what it was I put
the first volume on amazon.com
and I got some purchases and it was so
cool and I was just sort of looking at
that and then you know uh the the money
stopped you know that people stopped
buying it and I'm like okay so that's
the people who know about it I gotta I
should probably like try to Market it
more often Make Some Noise about it yeah
as I'm working yeah and I was like I
don't know why this was so strangely
difficult
um I think it might be an ADHD thing
I've I've heard like this sort of thing
is might be a an ADHD sort of
the thing but like uh I was I was having
this plan of like gonna post uh every
page
from Clarissa Gunsmoke uh on my Twitter
and Tumblr and Instagram just posting
the page one per day and then having a
link to where you can read it and buying
stuff and I'm like I could schedule
tweets like that I could just put them
all up there and that would be so easy
it would be the easiest thing in the
world
and I don't know why I couldn't do it it
was just it was staring me in the face
it was like the most the least amount of
work I could do you'd have to schedule
several hundred tweets right like
um
more like six days Six Days Seven at
this point I mean but like because it's
like four you post four pages for each
tweet and you just put it in a Fred
um
it would be less uh I mean it's probably
a smarter thing
some pages are not that that interesting
but I think one page just because if
they're too small then like you can't
see them when you're scrolling past the
small thumbnails now I think one page is
fine that's that's not I mean that's
like probably gonna take like a couple
hours to do like 67 it it well it's that
easy
I mean no but like even doing one I was
thinking okay well maybe if I don't
schedule them maybe if I just put one up
to get the ball rolling and I couldn't
do it I was like sort of freaking out
it was a weird experience did you not
what did you not actually want to do it
I wanted to do it and it was it would be
so easy and like every bone in my body
was saying nah and I don't I didn't get
it it was very odd
and so I had a sort of maybe I was
depressed I didn't even really feel like
I was
um
but I've been slowly grinding my bones
into a fine mist and now I'm getting
back to doing some some actual line art
for the new chapter at least something
is getting done that's good
um I I did not uh uh I did not finish
beescapades like I said I might
um I did do some more
but uh I didn't I didn't finish it you
were talking in the chat like the chat
is nearly done what what did you mean by
that uh uh in the chat just a few
minutes ago before the a few minutes ago
in the DM to me
almost done with the new chapter
of One Piece oh whoops uh no I have I
have some more I have some more Beast
companies I think I have like
seven more pages or something uh yeah
uh didn't didn't get to spend all my
time working on them this past two weeks
like I maybe would have liked to
uh but
you know it's getting there
um no I know I was talking about the one
piece chapter which I has been out for a
while it's been out for a while that was
a break last week so by the time this
episode comes out there'll be a chapter
uh that we will not talk about ugh
great
good scheduling we're we're really we're
really we're really honest I guess we
should we should mention why there was
no episode because we didn't actually
say
um I just wasn't here you weren't here
for I guess I assume Easter meet up or
so when I went to my family house for
Easter and I wasn't at my computer yeah
and I could have done a Gib curse but I
didn't really feel like it I was also
celebrating and mostly
I like now that the weather has changed
a little bit yeah and I just wanted to
spend my whole Sunday just lying in
sunbeams I wanted to go outside and have
the sun on my face and I would look up
it to it with my eyes closed and be like
oh yes yes oh yeah oh yeah it was Winter
it was with you it was winter like four
days ago and then three days ago it was
like 80 degrees at night it was like I
was like walking around in a t-shirt and
shorts like in in the evening yeah
that's too hot
feel like 80. during the day it was kind
of hot but uh during it didn't feel like
80 at night the weather said it was but
it was like walk around comfortably in
t-shirt weather it was great
it's a little bit Breezy it's a bit like
a random storm will come through and
like hail and then it'll be like five
minutes later it'll be nice and bright
and sunny and it's been it's been a nice
time to be outside and looking up at the
clouds and be like oh I imagine if there
was a Skype here up there or something
imagine does this guy pee at me or
that's like you you know you know those
pictures that are like regular people
versus creative people yeah oh yeah and
they just have like a bit of hair dye
it's like the creative person it's like
the girl is watching her her chicken
roast in the oven but the creative girl
has pink hair and is imagining that a
dragon is cooking the the chicken in the
oven with its fire breath that's you
creative people
yeah it's like you I look at big clouds
and I'm like oh yeah what if there was a
man living on them what was the little
guy up there
I mean unironically though sometimes a
cloud looks like you could climb it like
it's a Snowy Mountain sure and I stay I
just like looking at it I just like like
like
drooling like dumb like uh like looking
up that's me
that's where I want to be in life
well you can't what a creative person
that's yeah that's that's so creative of
you I'm so creative
um
normal people look down at their shoes
all day they don't look up they don't
see the normal people normal people look
down at their phone
and what Pokemon pornography like
Pokemon pornography yes yes

interested in seeing Pikachu choke on a
12-inch [ __ ] instead of looking at your
side
foreign
[Laughter]
like it says in the Bible
ah the beautiful bird song

this machine well oiled and running I'll
prevent what you gotta understand is

likes uh my comic and all the [ __ ] that
I do so he'd be like yeah you're running
everything at a loss but you know that's
how that's how it is when you're working
on your dreams and I'm like haha yeah
yeah I guess I guess I guess that's how
it is huh
that sucks yeah it's Gotta
you just gotta
pick yourself up by your bootstraps I
guess yeah so when I did my time you
gotta fling yourself up by your
bootstraps you go to like like David and
Goliath swing yourself around by your
bootstraps and then
eye of the giant you have to fling
yourself right into the giant yourself
you gotta Escape orbit by your
bootstraps
true true that you gotta have the eye of
the tiger I am
yeah but killing tigers is illegal
uh who's who who said that true is there
anyone is anyone important did any
person any relevant person say that
that's what I thought
oh
um
what are we doing here what are we doing
what are we talking about let's go let's
go oh yeah um well I was talking about
Comics
this is the last Comic I made it um it
pissed off a lot of there's so many
angry Christians at me on Tick Tock are
there really yeah really yes
some of them are speaking in like polish
to me and they're mad
who has time for this who has time for
this I don't know but some silly for a
thing to get people really mad yeah it's
really funny and I and it was it was
kind of a banger because it like it made
me jump up by like a hundred followers
on Tick Tock but I did it
it's pretty good but yeah it's free do
you know this meme uh Ben
the um the Anime Studio meme
it's like uh no it's it's an animated
something around it's like a guy's
walking and it's got a huge butt and
they look at it but I don't know if
that's in contact there's this um
there's this like South American studio
called anime and they do like animated
gay porn right
um yeah but they're but they kind of do
it in like a classic like cartoon style
for some reason
okay and their intros are very like
funny and there's one where there's like
a there's like a a black man with like a
huge ass and he's walking down the
street and all the other men are like
ogling at them
um and they're like following him and
they're like they're all bobbing to like
the head of of the beat of the song
right and okay sure yeah and and that
and then eventually on Saturday night to
get into an elevator with him and then
they go up to like some sort of like
hotel room where they all have like gay
sex with him but they're all still
dancing like he's still doing like a
little dance while they're having gay
sex sure sure beautiful yeah it's a
beautiful courtship uh ritual so why so
why so so why are you telling me all
what are you tell me all this for what
what's the what's the oh so the most
recent comic okay so this so this is so
this is that but it's it's Jesus yeah
it's that by Jesus and the okay the
Romans
you know
you know it's an outside the box concept
and I appreciate it thank you
um it's just like how it was when it
happened this is yeah as it is it is as
it was
as the Pope says is the original yeah
Burgess on the Jeep that's a that's a
line from the song that they use in the
in the meme
um this is a song called Ballin and they
just use like a sped up version of that
song for the meme and it just kind of
works
oh this looks terrible yeah yeah okay
yeah you think it was a good looking
game I don't I don't know
this is like this is like the problem is
like bad by our chested it's like they
drew the whole thing I love this like
each frame and it's so jerky I love the
scene where like once I get up to the
hotel room he like does it like a
cartoony Spin and he takes off all his
clothes I mean I like I like all the
guys in like the guys in top hats and
the wife and like the big floofy just
like appalled like dropping their
Monicals well good Heavens this is what
happens this man walking down the street
with like the biggest thickest ass ever
laughs
yeah so if you've been using this as
kind of like a meme template
gotcha this is my this is my this is me
putting my hat into the ring gorgeous on
the Jeep
um
pretty you're a thorn of uh Crown of
Thorns into the Rings yeah yeah uh Jesus
has risen he has made me rise
everyone was saying like oh this is
classroom you're going to hell someone
said like do you not know what Jesus did
for you
I I re I retweeted a tweet that I
thought was really funny on Easter where
a guy just says like yeah in the in the
Bible in the in the New Testament
there's a there's a part where
one of the some of the Apostles they
meet some guy the guy's name is
Nathaniel and they tell Nathaniel like
hey the Savior has is uh he's he's here
we got him and he's a guy from uh
Nazareth and the the guy says like
Nazareth sucks like he's not no he's not
why would he be from Nazareth Nazareth
sucks ass and they're like no no come on
come on and then later when Jesus meets
Nathaniel he says like this guy knows
exactly what's up like this guy is so on
the level he's totally right about
everything including my hometown of
Nazareth being a [ __ ]
uh uh pretty good pretty good
I guess I guess like
I guess like he was not prophesied to
come he I guess he was prophesized to
come from Bethlehem
this is a point I was not clear on
before I guess the prophecy was he would
come from Bethlehem and Nazareth is like
near ish Bethlehem
so like it's as if it's as if it's as if
they said oh yeah the Savior will be
born in Boston but then he was born in
like Lowell instead and and that's
that's how he like close enough I guess
that's another [ __ ] lie to you oh
that's a really important Boston yeah
okay whatever you say buddy right sure
right I've um I've been kind of in like
a anti-christian mood as of late but but
cheesy what about your soul oh oops
oopsie oh no oh damn oh [ __ ] I don't
think about that oh I didn't even
consider it oh
pray now pray pray you gotta pray you
gotta pray the soul oh Father out please
don't put me in Hell please please
pretty please don't put me in hell no
but what I mean is um
I've been um
in in my private server I'm doing an art
challenge where um you're supposed to
take like a superhero and you do like
the evil version of them
and um you kind of go in whatever
Direction you want with it so I was
thinking like okay what if I did the
Fantastic Four but they're like
religious zealots you know instead of
like scientists and like having a pro
profit organization they're just like
that sounds like something that laserbot
would make yeah and they're and they're
bait they're called the Fateful fours
like their name now and um I drew like
the majority of them already here's um
here's my Mr Fantastic I call him father
flesh
he's like evil Invisible Woman
right here
color of mother transparency yep
mother transparency that's cute I
reminds me of that one Pokemon
um the ultra Beast one
yes the The Rock The Rock poison one
Nile ego yeah I think I am gonna like do
like if I were to draw more of of this
interpretation of the character because
she has like four Shield power you could
do like kind of like
force field kind of like tentacle [ __ ]
so it looks more like a jellyfish yeah
yeah and that's cool this is cool I got
a this is the evil human toe I should
call this one the human pyre
oh these are cool these are pretty good
and I'm pretty good currently working on
the evil thing but I'm not too married
to this design I might change this
around
he's like um yeah it's hard because like
how do you turn a thing a monstrous Rock
thing into invert it yeah wait I've got
it I've got it I've got it he's not made
of rocks
uh wait he's made of Rock
the Dome of the Rock
the Islamic Shrine in Jerusalem
oh my God what does that look like hold
up because I was trying to look for like
rocks it kind of looks like a domed a
domed mosque Islamic is that the the the
Minecraft Cube
oh oh it Islam Minecraft it's the golden
it's the golden dome it's the golden
Jewish Dome
oh the other thing
well these guys are supposed to be like
well it's Islamic it's supposed to be
like christian-esque right
yeah okay yeah all right all right I'm
going off theme someone um when I when I
drew the Jesus with the big ass
someone's like okay now do Muhammad and
I'm like I have no idea what the [ __ ]
Mohammed does and I wouldn't
because he moved a mountain didn't he
did he people like to well maybe people
like to do the whole um he um he like
had like a child bride
yeah I mean I definitely definitely
heard about that one that was his
greatest Miracle what do you want me to
do about that
[Laughter]
oh the the
the uh yes the the cube the cave I
forget what the cube is called the cube
is great I love that I love that they
have a cube you know
yeah yeah cool it's good and you have to
like point in that direction it's crazy
oh no internet no we should do um you
can't steal it someone should do a
Transformer movie where the cube is a
Transformer like it's um it's like
another all spark like we found it yeah
[Laughter]
it's just a cool looking item it's a
cool looking exactly and it's like what
what's great about it is that there
isn't like a bleeding guy on it you know
yeah true yeah true that would suck yeah
because Christian's always got to remind
you oh he died he was bleeding oh gee
wins well I didn't
he's a martyr he's a martyr guy I
[ __ ] hate Martyrs remember how you
remember how they owned Our God so hard
we remember he came back though he came
back
then do you not know what Jesus did for
you
I I do know because I I just re-watched
that the Jenny Nicholson video about the
church plays including the one where
they crucify Batman on the bat signal
that's crazy
that's that's the real [ __ ] Batman dog
Batman does that in one of the movies
but to a criminal he puts his body yeah
the giant like spotlight
um so it's so Batman kind of crucified
him so so Batman's like anti-christian
if you will
you know that scene in Digimon where
they're crucifying uh not gabumon the
wolf one yeah I thought the wolf one was
gobble man is it gabumon yeah uh that's
a misremembering
that's the only one I remember oh it is
it is evolves into Guru ruman which
evolves into where garurumon which
evolves into metal Guru rum on and then
ultimate Guru Ramon probably and mega
Guru Ramon or something
I always remember that they had an
ultimate Forum but then beyond ultimate
is Mega which doesn't make sense that's
that's ultimate would imply it's the the
most there he is I like how he's kind of
holding like his own paw is this uh is
this an Ultraman reference he he he's
he's clearly like he's a dinosaur
wearing like a wolf skin I like that
wow I've never thought of that before
but that is what it is it's definite
that's definitely what it is uh it's
it's weird like compared to like Agumon
who is just a dinosaur
gabumon who is like his the the two of
them are like the two iconic ones from
that series one of them is just like a
just like a way more busy complicated
concept yeah I completely forgot he had
that stomach he's got the second the
second pair of the second pair of uh
paws like as though you know from the
skin
some of these stuffs could be removed
you know yeah
that's probably why I crucified him
didn't remember yeah that that belly
tattoo what's going on with that what's
going on man it's like a freak
he is a freak
all these it's not like 17 different
colors on him
it's not none of this is working for me
that's why they crucified him nice yeah
we had it coming really
to take off the wolf take off the wolf
skin never I'll I'll die first and then
he did eat it for our sins uh
oh boy
God I yeah oh here's wait here's here's
naked here's naked
here's a naked Guru
for your uh for your pleasure oh dumpy
old guy
it looks like a chicken nugget
you know without fat neck without the
furry my eyes are drawn even more to his
weird belly and I don't understand it's
because it's like the only part of his
body it has like blue on it compared to
the rest of the design
all right yeah I I don't I don't mind
that he has a fur coat over himself it
looks rad
it's not a it's not a terrible like idea
and concept but like um the unicorn horn
is like I mean I get it like it kind of
adds a little bit more to the silhouette
it like imagine trying to draw him
imagine being a kid and trying to draw a
gabumon oh I don't need to imagine I
can't I would never try to draw this guy
because it was like the worst I like
drawing the um
uh
it's not pal minus the one pound pulls
into the one that turns into it's a
fairy mod or lilimon Pokemon this
[ __ ] It's the final fantasy guy the
Final Fantasy Cactus yes okay I did I
did like I thought you meant uh padamon
who becomes Angelman that was my
favorite uh I did like taraman I like
lilimon I liked I liked angelmon because
it reminded me of Yu-Gi-Oh I thought it
was a Yu-Gi-Oh card I liked
um oh I liked uh
I don't even remember their names but um
Joey's the ones that the one that turn
the ultimate form of Joey's one that
it's like a the big walrus with like the
turtle shell and the giant oh yeah I
know what you're talking about that one
was pretty cool I liked garudamon the uh
kabutarimon
Ultra kabu I think it was kabutarimon it
was the bug
yes this was my favorite design actually
I remember because it was like it was
basically aliens but for kids
oh yeah it's so [ __ ] [ __ ] up oh
okay yeah
like alien for kids and I'm like what's
so like are rated about oh no yeah
xenomorphic kids yeah that's a really
cool design
man
um I was talking to people about like
why Digimon never caught on in in the
west as much as like Pokemon did and I
think um
I think Pokemon
um did a lot of pretty genius things
with how simple things were you know
like um with Digimon it's kind of like
we usually have one
and you just kind of go back and forth
between the stages of it right and but
with like Pokemon you had like a team
you know and like the world you can
catch them all yeah and the world kind
of makes like a like even though they're
both fantasy Worlds the world kind of
makes a little bit more sense in a
Pokemon where it's like oh the Pokemon
are just like they're animals you know
like their world animals these are the
animals of this world and you can like
just catch Digimon is basically an
isakai whereas Pokemon is like
there's just there's no there's no
isakai element to it it's just that it
just takes place in a world that is that
is fully fully fixated on this like
fantasy creature concept that your life
in this setting is devoted to the the
Mastery of I also think uh the Pokeball
as like a symbol AS like the the visual
symbol of the world is such it's so like
it the fact that it's so simple it's
like so [ __ ] perfect and they never
change it at all I mean there's a
different version
and another literally iconic another
thing is that like the way you you fight
the way you capture the Pokemons is the
same way you fight them so really there
isn't like too much of a disconnect wow
like I mean I I don't know do you
capture most watches and Digimon I don't
know how exactly it works
no you just you just get one you just
get one yeah and the Digimon Digi bit B
but uh like wrist watches they looked
like Tamagotchis I I think also did
which didn't age very well even as an
idea even though technically Pokemon
only started letting you cup customize
like your character in the past couple
of
games you could already technically
customize even even from the start the
fact that you choose what Pokemon are on
your team is a form of customization you
know because uh yeah like when I was a
kid I didn't give a [ __ ] about stats I
only like got Pokemon that I thought
looked cool right and that's kind that's
another great thing is that you could
still beat the game with just Pokemon
you think that looked cool you could
beat the games with complete trash mode
right exactly and I think um yeah I
think it it works I think Pokemon did a
lot of very genius moves that like made
sure it kind of stayed and I think um I
think that's why a lot of these other
like Pokemon wannabes keep falling
bullying they don't like really sit down
and look at what worked for Pokemon
Remember When
my otisman
did evolved at mitosis mom at 666 and he
attacked freaking Neo Tokyo or whatever
and they had the number of the Beast
they have the number of the beast on
American TV for kids
bass Japan
that's right the number of the base the
base Beast if Rome's Our Land
uh uh
I really liked man the the the at the
end of the first Digimon uh season
really like left an impression on me as
a kid yeah that [ __ ] it's pretty wild I
don't know it's pretty wild how like
they go to they go to this fantasy
digital world and then they come back
and like the worst and most like deadly
demons follow them back from it and like
do terrorism and destroy the real world
and then I don't know something about
the the they go to like they have to go
to like the void where like all the lost
like data is and they fight like the
manifestation of all the all the like
lost and destroyed Digimon Data
in that big like polyhedron
[ __ ] awesome
[ __ ] epic and based and radical and
cool it yeah I don't I think I watched
that when I was young and I haven't
rewatched it since it would probably be
done
in the kid I was like I can't believe I
can't believe the stakes the stakes have
literally never been higher in my entire
life
but that's the sort of thing like I
think Pokemon the show was so good
and so watchable because
um every episode was the same thing you
go to a place you see a Pokemon you're
like whoa what's going on and then you
fight yeah and in Digimon there was a
narrative that you had to follow and I
didn't catch every episode so I would
just not continue watching Digimon
because I was like I missed an episode I
don't know what's going on Pokemon
doesn't matter yeah and so I would watch
that instead
um one thing that I really like about
digibon is I don't know if this was done
on purpose but the fact that the way
like the the creatures like did you
evolve
um they they start out as like something
that a little kid would draw and as like
it grows it kind of becomes more like oh
like you as an artist kind of grow and
you can draw things that a little bit
more complicated you know until you're
drawing like your home your horny OCS
you know right when they become Andrew
Andrew woman and lilimon and stuff yeah
yeah
the final stage I kind of and I kind of
dig that I really I really think that's
really like kind of cool you know it's
kind of like oh it's like growing up you
know I mean because Pokemon do that too
but like
um with Digimon it's kind of like more
really not exactly sure what the next
one is gonna look like you know
where are you on the artist spectrum of
Digimon Evolutions or digital Evolutions
I don't know what's the what's the one
before Ricky
is it like baby baby baby
zygote did um when you guys were growing
up were you um you know like the concept
of like like horse girls or wolf girls
and [ __ ] like that
yeah would you I did you specialize in a
kind of thing when you were a kid in
that way because uh when I when I was
big I'm egg I'm egg stage oh you're
trans oh you're gonna be trans
but basically what I mean is when I was
very little I was like oh I really like
dinosaurs I would I would re-watch the
original Walking with Dinosaurs uh
documentary
that they made because I thought
dinosaurs really cool and then I became
a dragon kid because I was like oh
they're like dinosaurs with superpowers
but um for some even but even as a kid I
realized that I needed I needed
structure and there was a structure that
dried dragons kind of lack structure and
what I mean is that anything can kind of
be a dragon
you know or like the the kind of like
the The Rules of Engagement with dragons
like vary and like I guess that wasn't
enough for me to like latch onto and
then I found out about Godzilla and
Godzilla had a lot of structure there's
a lot of consistency between like like
kaijus and and the movies that they come
from and I really like got into that so
if I if it was like a digivolve
evolution tree it would have been like
dinosaur dragon and then like Kaiju kid
you know
did you guys go for something like that
is what I'm basically asking uh I I mean
I remember in class there was the one
girl who could draw the horses and she
was the horse girl she would always draw
horses and she was really good at it and
I was like that's so boring where's the
Knight on the horse I was always into
drawing suits of armor swords and
knights and that is my I think that's my
first thing because Knight suits of
armor like made up of little shapes it's
like drawing a person but it's easy
where did you where do you think you
went from there
are you still a night kid
I don't actually draw suits of armor
that much anymore maybe not occasionally
I'm trying to think because like
I think I sort of
I I liked Knights
and then I got really into Dragon Ball
and so I started to try and draw a manga
and I have like an old like a rip-off
manga of like combining Dragon Ball and
Princess Mononoke
and Jack and Daxter and stuff nice I was
like oh this is so [ __ ] epic it's
like Naruto It's like got like ninja
stuff
but I don't know if that's like a style
or like a type of thing were you like I
guess I just got into anime I went from
knights to anime
yeah and then I would draw like bleach
stuff and I don't know what
it's hard to remember I drew so many
things I would draw a lot of like
uh stuff like oh I would copy things
that were cool like I would try and draw
Goku uh it's something to think about
kind of like um what were the things
that you like fixated on when you were a
kid
you know
um bad were you a kid were you ever a
kid Ben
no thanks for asking Ben was Ben was uh
pulled out of the mud like it works
yes yes oh yeah yes yes he was pulled
out of his life and ready to draw The
Vape by his father father's sake pull
them out of the slime
and um and then he pulled Nate out of
the gold
I don't know I like the Animorphs I like
to draw anamorphs aliens
that's it
um I'll just I'll just put you down
you're a slime kid now
um I mean that's when I was like little
at some at some point I I used to be
into like space I was into like space
and planets as a little kid and then I
got into anamorphs and then at some
point I read like uh Lord of the Rings
and then after that I was into fantasy
instead of Science Fiction sometimes in
the Lord uh Wheel of Time
and then I don't know
then I
definitely throw a lot of Lord of the
Rings I think that I found out about sex
those became a sex kid yeah then I
became a Chad then I put I put aside
childish things and I put away books for
babies and I just [ __ ] [ __ ] instead
nice oh yeah
you know I Diversified my portfolio and
uh
started training in the blade I you know
I made a bunch of Investments uh uh my
my you know it's invest in Wall Street
got Bitcoin obviously you got Bitcoin
back in like 2001 so now I'm billionaire
uh and that's it that's the story wow it
sounds like you made nothing I can't
believe there's a billionaire on this
show and we never knew sounds like yeah
it's pretty ironic it's like you only
make good choices Bend that's crazy
it is crazy it is crazy thanks for
noticing
I for what Emma Paul to hear that
I know it's [ __ ] up it's [ __ ] up you
can all you can make all the right
choices and still end up like me I know
it's really discouraging but it's
discouraging me if that's like making
the right choices maybe I should make
wild choices instead
maybe I'm really
I'm really like looking like my eyeballs
have turned inwards and they're looking
at my brain scanning for like what I was
into and what I was drawing there's
loads of things
I think I can't like remember though
like in what order anything came and you
are like Fire Emblem I would draw a lot
of knights and swords I would try
drawing skeletons do you ever like but
but skeletons are difficult so you ever
have like memories
are talking about you as a kid saying
like oh yeah so and so is really into
this and that
like you wouldn't hear that
you know I would hear that but what I
would hear is like oh uh they're into
um
uh art yeah they like drawing and so I'm
like yeah I was the drawing kid
for for birthdays people would get me
colored pencils and I'm like okay nice
oh yeah
what do you actually I didn't use them
I yeah I'm pretty sure I used uh some of
them those there's it was just sort of
the one thing though
it's just like more pencils more paper
yeah I never have enough Never Enough
pencils how to draw manga I remember
getting that like the the the like
iconic
book of how to draw manga with the
terrible [ __ ] up face on the cover I
had that book based and I learned how to
draw it I remember reading and being
like okay I guess I could learn how to
draw this I don't like how it looks I
didn't have that one but I had very some
very similar
books Google it I checked out how to
draw mango from the library one time I
checked out several of them I know there
was like a series of them
um in red I can't believe retrospective
was it this is yeah that one that one's
great that one's a classic was that
that's the one you had that's the one I
had
what does Katie Coop draw like now I
wonder
let's find out
[Music]
I had I had one that was actually kind
of good
it was this this one oh these are like
expensive now
these are like
yeah how did this this how to draw manga
is actually kind of cool and it's and it
even I remember what reading this in the
or this one of the ones in the series
and it even it even talks about like I I
only read the first volume because I had
it but it it talks about not just like
the drawing but like being a mangaka and
like having assistance and like uh you
know be like working for an editor and
stuff
and then
I had I had another one
that I am not seeing in any of these
these search results but the other one
that I had was pretty crappy and it was
very much it just gave you like a bunch
of stock characters and was like draw a
circle draw another Circle put big hair
on the circle uh put the eye like this
that one sucked
oh wow oh my God the how to draw manga
book uh Katie Coop made that when she
was 16.
yeah that kind of makes sense all right
good good for her
this is obviously a 16 year old holy
[ __ ] they have drawn they've drawn it
again they have a Twitter oh damn time
to follow the queen
uh
nice
it's not still not it's still not free
wow when was this from
it's not great it's not great we'll see
post pictures 2021. what a freaking
[ __ ] royalty this is [ __ ] you're
only royalty we're looking at right now
wait where's this is interesting she she
wrote about how she was initially happy
to work on the book because she was just
a teenager she revealed that the
character on the cover was a flipped
illustration that she never intended to
become the cover art which she protested
at the time
okay
I mean
cool uh exonerated I guess not not not
really no I mean I'm not gonna think
less of her I mean she was like 16.
you're 16 and the company says oh you
you draw that um anime or main game we
need to sell a book about that so could
you could you do this it's like oh my
God she's only got the she only got the
she only got 6 000 followers on Twitter
yeah unless I'm looking at the wrong
person they're they're kkt Coop right
like they go over there yeah yeah that's
where I I found that Twitter from the
article that's talking about the artist
and this redrawing
I do album art promotional materials web
design illustration
I'm not
super impressed
I mean some of this is okay some of this
is okay like design wise and like
the the act the actual the actual like
oh like the actual illustration on
display is is look at these faces look
at look at this face
of the guy in the middle here uh the guy
not the guy in the bottom left but the
Samurai and armor right above him yeah
she probably could add a little bit more
wrinkles to his face it's not it's not
working it's not working a little bit
more stronger emotion you know
oh man
um
I have a
I didn't I didn't tell you guys about
um kind of a little Feud that I was in
the middle of a little conflict that I
was happening that was going back and
forth
and none of it was like public it was
all behind like DMS and like
private Discord servers
um that sounds amazing that sounds
spectacular yeah yeah but basically
um and Alias are you could like bleep
out this uh this group's name
um because I don't want to get into too
much [ __ ] trouble about it but um
there's a there's a there's an
organization called the
right okay and basically they're um
they're trying to help out like Indie
artists and they wanted they're they're
mostly like you know helping you trying
to promote your stuff yada yada but also
um they want to make a database like a
giant database of everyone's like Comics
like the as many Indie Comics as they
can right
and um and I and I joined and I even
like
um paid kind of like there was like a
membership fee I didn't even paid that
it was only like five bucks really
um
well basically yeah so I joined and I
just been in their server and
and I even submitted make paglachi into
their database right wait wait I'm sorry
it's something really funny there's an
opportunity for bypoc creators only for
a Zine called the brown recluse zine
distro
I think it's funny on purpose I think
it's funny on purpose it it probably is
you know I'm always on the fence about
kind of like oh we're looking for
specific POC creators and I'm like oh
I'm specific fancy creators and like
yeah we want you to do a so-and-so
specific thing that I'm not interested
in and I'm like damn I'm I'm the wrong
kind of POC for this because I'm more
interested in drawing goblins and like
other like melanated people you know
he's much more interested in telling
movies about goblins than movies about
Mexicans
definitely true basically okay so anyway
I submitted uh make paglachi into their
database right and and then I got a
rejection letter which I thought was
weird because
um and they told me that the quality was
not up to par
for the database now yeah here's the
weird thing if you take a quick glance
through their database
um you get the impression that quality
is on a spectrum
right I got the big impression that
quality
is has varies a lot where would where
would I find their data right right here
it's on the website
so yeah I if you just girlfriend I read
a handful of these of these if you
scroll through it um
yeah it's obvious that quality is on a
spectrum here you know I was so
surprised to find out that um make
pagalachi got rejected you know
and um yes I mean not all not all of
these look like super professional right
and yeah I I didn't I didn't even got I
never got the impression that it was
supposed to be like professional at all
or anything because it's Indie Comics
you know right
um and yeah but basically here's here's
a Google Drive link to it this is I'm
I'm uh wait you know I don't want to be
mean okay don't call don't call anyone
out or anything
but I mean
[Music]
I mean come on yeah that's see that's
the thing I didn't call out no one but I
kept saying like look like it seems like
quality is not on a spectrum it's uh you
know like what's what's the deal right
so I'm thinking like
um oh I by the way above I would just
like it again but here's a here's a
Google Drive link to um to an image
gallery of all the screenshots of me
going back and forth with them and it
starts with uh it starts with my
rejection God I'm not I'm not reading
these well I'm just gonna summarize it
so it starts with um their rejection
letter and and me like replying back to
them saying like I think I I think I
disagree with what you said also another
thing that they said in the rejection
later they kind of like pissed me off a
little bit but they said um
they said we encourage you to resubmit
after you developed your craft more
and I I thought that was kind of a rude
thing to say I am I did talk to my like
I mean yeah I mean look look at what's
in the database yeah like I'm sorry but
there's three there's straight up
amateur stuff and also and here's
another thing that also pissed me off if
you go into their cartoonist Cooperative
Instagram
um you will find that one of their
Instagram posts is a promotion from Mick
Pagliacci like it's up there right
and it's so weird that like why would
you promote it by not have it in your
database you know
like it seems kind of a little two-faced
a little bit you know it seems kind of
hypocritical because what if someone
sees that and they think well I don't
know I mean is it
is it hypocritical like is there a
reason for this do you want I don't
understand what do you mean
I mean like why did they do this well I
mean that's what I wanted to know like
why did they rejected it right
right why would they promote it if they
were going to reject from the database
right exactly so I I asked them like
what like is if there is there something
specific about make pagalogy now in the
back of my mind if you just go for their
database and then one thing I noticed is
that there's no parodies
or anything with like copyrighted
characters so I'm thinking like oh okay
maybe okay could that be it yeah could
that be it right but I I don't want to
suggest that just yet because I want
them to say it you know I don't want
them to be like oh yeah yeah that was
that's totally it like I want them to
like you know tell me why
um yeah and so it's just nice to know
yeah basically you just told me the
quality just wasn't up to par that's it
that's just it and if they said if I
want speed it's funny if I want feedback
to go into their Discord into their
feedback chat in their Discord server
and post make paglachi there and I did I
posted it in there and I said like hey
can anyone tell me like why
this didn't like get in
you know and um
and a couple a couple people gave me
like some feedback but everything
anytime they would give me like feedback
I would like question it like um
someone told me
there was one person in there there's
this one guy who um said he couldn't
give me feedback in the feedback chat
because um he doesn't like giving
feedback in the feedback check he said
he'd much rather prefer I talk in the
forums like like and I'm like can you
just I I asked him can you just DM me
the feedback instead and he's like no no
it's much better if I do it in the
forums and I'm like uh well you know I
kind of wanted feedback in the feedback
chat but
yeah I did make a yeah I made a forum
post about it so I get feedback there
and that guy did give me feedback
um of and his and I even screenshotted
his feedback too it's in there
um later in the gallery when I go over
what they say in the forums and um
I I feel like you only had one bit of
valid criticism which is when he he
mentioned one panel and he said that
composition of this panel could have
been better and I'm like yeah I agree it
could have been better
um yeah okay sure but but this was not
like a guy
in a position this is not a guy in
charge of anything this is just some guy
well it's uh I I think he's a Committee
Member some of them are like committee
members right so they're they're guys
that are like up there
um but but here's peers I'm thinking but
this is what I'm thinking because I bet
I could probably 100 bet I could find a
comic in their database that does not
have that good composition
right yeah like that I don't think
that's a crazy thing to like bet on
right so I'm thinking it's bad
composition like is that the red line is
that like the the like oh like this is
like you gotta have good composition
um
someone did someone did mention that
they thought the idea was not like funny
like it um it's not a funny like idea
they didn't laugh at all and okay and
it's it was like a poorly executed joke
and then I replied it is a poorly
executed joke is that like the line like
if you do a joke and it sucks
yeah I it's not it's not like is my work
good enough but like is like what is the
what are the rules that's the that's
where the like here's
the if it is like mascot characters or
like uh stuff can't be used yeah uh just
a heads up be nice the the yeah if it
was be if it was because of copyrighted
characters I think that would be
perfectly reasonable they I asked them
about parodies and said parodies are
allowed they allow parodies and I'm like
all right well I I just I guess it
wasn't funny enough but look but but
check this out look I'm this comic right
here
um is this funny this isn't their humor
section is this a funny comic
well let me let me let me take a look
because uh oh God
are these like
um just individual images or are they
like uh they're like uh you can flip
through them when you click on them
oh I have to log in
I don't know my login
wow yeah these are these are like recent
these are like recent
mm-hmm
um
now is this funny about and like it
could I don't I don't have anything
against this but um is it supposed to be
fun it's in the humor section but and
then they and they said mcmah she's not
funny enough to be in the database but
this is and I'm like okay well what's
going on you know
okay I I guess I guess my thoughts on
this are
yeah I I don't understand the the
standard of quality I don't understand
by what standard of quality something
like this is like gets the thumbs up but
something like Mick Pagliacci is like
nah it's not good enough I I don't know
what criteria they could give you that
by which it isn't good enough but
maybe maybe maybe more so
who cares yeah ultimately who cares
about being another stupid database well
the thing is I would like I I mean I
would want make Bugatti to be as many
things as possible and and it's kind of
like this isn't really like
I don't think it's any it's no skin off
their back if they post it and they have
it in their database like it's not gonna
[ __ ]
what's the negative effect of it it's
clearly up to par with like a lot of
things they have up there right what
what do you what do you get out of them
putting it in their data well when you
look up mcpad glatchy it pops up if it's
on like it's if it's on like a website
right
I mean I guess so yeah like you know
yeah it helps a little bit like you know
when people now when people look for
their database they're gonna see me
fight glitchy you know it helps you know
when they look for a database it doesn't
inherit is the main thing yeah it
doesn't hurt
um and here's the thing the more I talk
to the more like the vibe that I get is
that they kind of already didn't like me
and and I think and I think the reason
why is because they didn't like that I
kept posting make paglachi in the promo
chat on their Discord server
yeah and which is
weird because the promo yeah it's a
promo chat you know what did you Elsa
you wanted to post it they gave me the
vibe that they specifically wanted me to
make friends first before I start asking
about promotions
like like oh we yeah like you're never
you're never from you're always just
promoting yourself you're never like
having conversations in there you're
never like making trying to make friends
and it's like well well [ __ ] you because
how how do you not know I'm not making
any friends outside of it how do I know
I'm not talking to these people in the
group outside of the group do I have to
like be discussing them in the Discord
do I need evidence that I'm becoming
friends with people
that's um that's kind of the feeling
that I get in a lot of Like Comics
spaces on the internet that they're just
kind of a big social club and nobody's
really there to like nobody's really
there to like make it in comics they're
all just there to [ __ ] around I yeah
they're they're we're trying to create
an in-group so we can exclude people
from yeah we're trying to be like the
coolest people ever that we imagine all
the all the comics that we idolize are
in I think we're gonna have our own club
because we can't be in there I I think I
think that's a lot of where it comes I
think the plan with this is that and
like yeah I have no evidence for this
plan but the idea is that the bigger
this group gets who are people going to
most likely be talking about that are
involved in this group they're not going
to be talking about the individual
people in it they're going to talk about
the people who run it right yeah other
people are running it are going to get
way more attention than anybody else
like in the group sure right that's why
that's why it's you run things yeah even
even like this pixel dog comic like the
guy who made this is one of the guys who
who started it
you know so it's like
well there you go yeah it's just so well
variation submit Red Man and if they
reject it I could have like pencils
please submit Red Man
oh man if you if you get it I want to
get mad
no I'll just do what you did I will not
make friends and I'll see if they hate
me this is like well it's like a science
experiment no I think I think
you're right I think it's like they
don't know it's that it's a club it's a
club and you're not in it and they don't
know you and that that's that's more
important yeah and I mean it's it's kind
of it's kind of a shame you know it's
kind of a really big shame because like
you know I saw the word cooperative and
I thought oh these guys must be cool
they have Cooperative in the name and
well I see
and some people are more Cooperative
than others right
um what I don't is it is it just Comics
is it I Feel Like Comics are always like
that it's always just people [ __ ]
around I think it's like any kind of
Indie scene kind of thing you know yeah
which is uh is that what it's like to
join bands which is a shame that's
they're probably is this what it
probably is like to join a band that is
just [ __ ] around I remember back in
high school one of my buddies who was
like who would like rap and whatnot
um he said that there was like kind of
like groups of of like little smaller
Indie rappers who who think themselves
all hard and everything or really they
just jerking themselves off
that just kind of happened in the Indie
scene I I remember I'm reminded of like
I'm reminded of like uh like the
tapastic forums
which would just be like like no one
who's successful on to pastic was
posting on the forums it was all like it
was all nobodies to maybe people that
had like a little bit of clout people
that were people that were making like
people that maybe had like a couple
thousand a couple thousand views people
that were maybe making like
95 a month on on patreon or something uh
people are successful are not posting in
they're not they're not posting in in in
forums about that talking to other like
comic people about like the craft of
comic making they're not asking for
critique and they're not giving critique
the kind the kind of critique you get in
circles like that it's like
oh this one panel has like a the the the
the the the composition could have been
stronger [ __ ] off I would die I would
say these um in this cartoon is
cooperative I do notice they give
critiques and whatnot there's people
like engaging and [ __ ]
and whatnot and I think I don't know I
think because ultimately they want to
like I think what they really
specifically want in their database is
Comics made by them like made in within
their group so they could show off
that's that's why that's why Pixel dog
or whatever is that's why I [ __ ] pick
yeah exactly
and it's um yeah I mean it's it's a
shame you're in you're an interloper
yeah you're showing up with work and
you're an outsider and you're like
include me and they're like well we
don't want it well yeah we only like you
if you're if you're our best friend and
you haven't shown you're our best friend
yet oh come on guys please please be
nice in your database I'll be your best
friend you gotta be our best friend
first and then we'll put you in the data
my mistake was a finishing mcpaglashy
before joining
if I did work in progress or then their
Discord server it probably would have
been a different story but it's it's
a it's annoying you know I feel like
there should be like a database Randy
Comics but it can't be run by
other Indie comic people there's gotta
be just run by one guy who doesn't make
any comics and won't like um doesn't
have any like assumptions about anybody
or just put anyone in it you know yo
Gibb once once the perfect comic party
is out this is gonna be us we're going
to be the in group and we're gonna be
the only and only our best friends will
get to uh only the bestest of friends
someone's gonna be like yeah I submitted
my comic into uh and did perfect comic
party but they said it wasn't funny
enough but they have uh Mick paglachi
there uh nah nah it doesn't make any
sense make it make sense guys can we can
we can we put Mick paglachi in the
imperfect comic party
um sure how does that how does that work
how would that work exactly
um it probably actually is quite long
overall how many pages is we can split
it into this it's like uh it's already
split it's like oh yeah it's got X yeah
no [ __ ] it one don't be like
it'd be like a chapter and of so many
pages and then the next issue would have
the next chapter I'm not gonna make me
decide a contract where you own makeup
now no I think no I think we just own
exclusive rights to print your comic in
the perfect comic party no I I think I
think it would just be I think it'll
just be like a waiver or like a form
that's just like
you give us permission to
post it online like you we're we're you
know you you you formally say like yes
it's okay for my work to appear in the
digital
file and be hosted on this website and
it's not exclusive and there's no like
print rights or anything okay like that
no no we'll we'll we'll we'll take it
we'll steal it we'll be honest
I'll ask I'll come back and beg for the
prince later
um you know what that reminds me I was
gonna ask because I was listening to you
guys talking about perfect comic party
like a couple episodes ago and you
mentioned about doing the whole Shonen
thing with like the reader voting
and yeah I thought that was kind of
I I don't know if that's I thought that
was kind of interesting because it's
kind of like okay but what if like let's
say for example what if someone what if
everyone votes what if people vote
against the comic you're making like
would you stop making biscuit paid if
everyone was kind of like no I don't
like it and they like vote against it
um
no but if but what if they vote for me
though then it would make me feel good
okay but I'm saying okay let's say it's
any yeah that makes you feel good
obviously but just any comic you
yourself are personally making what if
everyone voted against that
you know I think I think it that that
that would be we would have to ask the
question then what is the perfect comic
party for if it's for being a successful
comic publishing thing like six uh like
a collaborate like a a bunch of comics
in one publication and we want it to be
successful and everybody hates both mine
and Ben's comic we just can't put our
own comments in our own publication
anymore yeah and then that we would have
to like not put our comics in there but
I don't think that's the point for me
anyway okay I just want to show off my
stuff you know I guess I don't really
mind if it's not in the perfect comic
party but like
uh I guess we'll see okay you know what
cheesy I do I do think you have a point
like the the the the reader surveys in
Shonen Jump
are like like the purpose of those is so
that like when a comic is bad and
performs badly they can get rid of it
and like so we don't really need we
don't really need them for anything I
guess it's it's the it's this thing but
I would like to hear I would like to
hear reader feedback but like I'm I
don't we're not until we're like in it
so inundated with submissions that like
we are too many quality submissions and
we can't host them all until we get to
that point we don't need
to be voting anyone off the island
so if it comes to a point where like
Clarissa Gunsmoke is the least popular
um I guess there's no actual like size
problem
but it would get bloated if we just kept
saying yes and that this like the PDF
would get like 200 pages long every
month
um
so yeah I guess hypothetically I would
take my comic off
I would still put it on my own things
but like silly yeah I mean
grandfathered in if we want it to be
like a just a successful publishing
thing but I don't see it like a
successful or not not that it wouldn't
be successful but like the purpose of it
is for me to make comics and have a
thing to put it on and be feel cool
about it I I think um I think I don't
know if I
if
in in this hypothetical scenario where
peace the comic party ran for a while
and it got really popular and there were
tons of great comics in there and
everyone's we're getting we're getting
reader submissions and people are voting
and biscuit pades is like bottom of the
pile it's like the least popular thing
in there I'll be honest I wouldn't just
quit Beast capades I would just I would
just finish I would just wrap I would I
would keep going finish it wrap it up
and then when it was done and be like oh
yeah people didn't like it yeah I would
yeah I would not I would not quit
Clarissa if people didn't like it in the
perfect comic product I would just have
it as one of my on my website as my
little thing
that only a small Niche Community would
enjoy well because because I don't see
beescapades being that long uh I don't I
don't think I would even pull it from
the perfect comic party I'd just be like
ah [ __ ] it you're stuck with it until
it's done well it's going in there well
I think um
I think I think that's a pretty good
idea if you think of it kind of like uh
when you're selling lemonade and you you
got your big jar of money and you you
put a couple of your own dollars in
there to make it seem like you're
getting business I mean like if you
think of having biscuit pades and
Clarissa Gunsmoke as like your your
starting seeds for yeah for the
publisher whatever the [ __ ] you guys
calling yourself I I my my dream my
dream is just that uh we get enough
submissions every month that we have you
know it's not just me and Gibbs comic
there's like a bunch of features in
there every month there's at least at
least a few
my dream my dream is that we do that for
a while and then we collect like a bunch
and then we and then you know we
approach the artists and we say hey we
want to work out a a print deal and we
compile them into like a volume of like
I don't know
the the 50 the 50 best or something uh
and and we sell like volume volume one
the collect the collected perfect comic
party uh let me kickstarted or something
but uh that would be you know
there's a there's we'd have to we have
to make it a success first before worry
about worry about it you guys are gonna
have to create some sort of guidelines
because with um
I mean what would any would any
publisher they have guidelines of what
exactly they're like looking for how
many pages or whatnot you know
um I mean my guidelines I I don't have
any like hard rules about like page page
page length I would say probably not
more than like 20-ish pages and if it's
longer than that we could always just
divide it into chapters uh yeah I think
that's sensible
um I don't actually know how big a
normal Shonen Jump is because I've never
seen one they they have how many
different things every week I have no
idea is it like a huge tone yeah because
like the one piece chapter is like 20
Pages by itself and then it's like
a bunch of other things I think it's
maybe like like 100 or 200 pages is like
the weekly
how do you read that how do you read all
that maybe not well I mean it's because
they got a whole they got tons of
different authors in there they're all
guessing on their [ __ ] they're on the
they're on on the bullet train sitting
down reading that [ __ ]
because they're on a first moving
vehicle they also read well because on
the fast moving vehicle time dilates and
so like fewer Pages you can read them in
it takes longer to read them they have a
lot of opportunities to be
some some they have a lot of like
certain amount of free time specific
moments to be read you know
um what was I saying uh
yeah I would I would I would like to
print I would like to print to collected
volume one day that's my like that's how
I'll know that the project was like a
runaway a runaway Smash Hit success
um I was [ __ ] maybe I was done maybe I
didn't have anything else to say okay I
got it maybe maybe the surveys
maybe the surveys are not super
necessary I would I will be making a
channel in the PCP Discord that's
specifically for like perfect comic
party like comic discussion and feedback
and stuff I would like to accept
feedback and in fact biscapades needs
feedback these capades is gonna end with
like a like a call to like hey send send
suggestions for the next chapter I think
I'll take suggestions for like reader
reader commands in like batches so like
at the end of a chapter it's like submit
as many suggestions for things to happen
in the next one as you want and I'll
like go through them and I'll just pick
ones that I like and I'll and I'll put
them together into the next chapter
I think that's my plan and uh you know
I'll probably
I guess we could accept those via email
we could also just make that like yeah
suggest we gotta do the the Google
forums thing yes the Google yes the
Google forms thing for for fees there's
a few little things that I've just been
like I need to focus on something and
the perfect comic party this hasn't been
drawing me in do you mean
um just like the few pages like the
putting together the patron thank you
page I just wanted to focus on Clarissa
because it was easier to think about
yeah I think once once the once you've
finished the thing done and it's like we
can get together and be like yeah like
run through like how it's gonna look and
all that when you say Google forms you
mean like for for like for for
submissions oh and yeah feedback I mean
we could do all sorts of things with
Google forms I think I I think Beast I
think Beast capades like like reader
commands I think yeah Google forms would
be a good way to uh to do those just to
have it all in one place
so I don't have to check my email and
check the Discord and check Twitter and
check all these different things you
can't have it where like you're posting
beast capades on a website and then
people in the comments are leaving the
feedback there or no so I didn't have a
I I specifically did not want a like
comment section when I was building my
website my old website everyone told me
like you gotta have a comment section
you've got to have a comment below and I
was like abs and I was like absolutely
not I do not want a comment section
because I'm not popular enough
most pages will have no comments and it
will just be embarrassing
so I just don't want it just throw the
whole [ __ ] concept out I mean that
that's obviously true but I was that's
true even popular comic even popular
Comics are like that like most Pages
just have zero comments yeah yeah like
people don't think to use that but also
um I don't like the idea of thinking
you're reading a comic and then oh I
wonder what people thought about this
and scrolling down yeah I feel like that
breaks up the the flow of reading the
actual thing so I don't want any
distractions my site is you read the
comic and then you get out of there yes
com reading a comic is not the place for
like page by Page [ __ ] peanut gallery
commentary
that's what I don't it's another thing I
don't like about uh tapastic and uh and
the line yeah
I should put things onto plastic though
I need to advertise through permians I'm
a little bit I'm a little concerned
about lion webtoons like terms of of
service line webtoons terms of service
seems to kind of imply that like by
posting your stuff online webtoon like
they are allowed to like print your
stuff
like it becomes their content print
uh
that was the impression was it is it one
of the one of those lines where it's
like you like uh they have the right to
reproduce the work
um
because I think that a lot of sites have
that where it basically just means we're
allowed to show this on a web page we're
able to host it on a web page that
people can see you you grant you grant
us
with respect to user posting you grant
us a non-exclusive Perpetual irrevocable
royalty Fleet free worldwide
transferable licensable license to
access use host Cash Store reproduce
transmit display publish and distribute
your user posting yeah I do not like
that verbiage at all every every image
hosting site has that it basically means
I mean people freaked out when
deviantART when somebody looked at the
Deviant terms of service and they had
that in there and deviant's word for
other reasons for the AI stuff but like
that specifically just means that when
somebody loads a page
uh deviant heart you've given deviant up
the the permission to display permission
to display the image so that it works
and they have to give it all those words
so that it makes sense because like
worldwide means yeah accessing from any
place that you can access the site I
appreciate that but like taking taken
literally it seems like it gives them
like if they wanted to they could like
print your stuff in a book and sell it
did they say that's print though they
say no they don't say print because
that's the only thing it looks like I I
pretty sure transmit display publish and
distribute reproduce but like online
well it doesn't it doesn't
especially I know it doesn't specify but
like I don't think anything of that
nature has ever happened and like every
site has that sort of clause uh I
thought that when you would with users
hosted submitted content will the well
the Tapas one
specifically said that they won't do the
things that I'm worried about
so maybe maybe you're right and maybe
that's just they all have it and maybe
Tapas was just being extra I think
I think maybe there was a lot a lock
picking wire
um the legal eagle like explanation
about what that law actually means or
what that stipulation
something to look into I guess it I mean
it might be a matter of precedent where
like if they ever did try to like take a
bunch of like User submitted stuff and
like print it there would be a lawsuit
and then probably some legal precedent
would be established it's like no you
can't do that
uh and it might not be in like the
letter of the the contract or whatever
you're probably right
yeah Tumblr has that as well top people
freaked out on Tumblr when they saw that
and they're like oh my God they're gonna
steal our art every girl everybody take
your art off of Tumblr and it's like
nothing happens
stupid okay but it sounds but it sounds
like what I said it sounds like but
okay all right no but no but like I
think the thing about that though is
that Society has degraded so much that
it could be true yeah yeah it could have
been true and it would have been just
like just like uh duh it was so
believable
that's what I thought it was yes yes
that's what I'm trying to say okay uh
sorry
um what is that what is the person comic
party gonna be it's gonna be like a PDF
you can download
yeah I think we're thinking PDF yeah
just because I think in a PDF just easy
to put it all together
squish it into a little file and you
just download the file and maybe we
could make it readable online as well in
some form interesting I mean I think if
you drag a PDF on into your browser you
can read it online I yeah you don't need
a website to do that if it's a PDF you
can just look through it like that I am
right I always thought it was kind of
funny when I see people on like
like certain like Twitter like artists
people that make like Indie Comics talk
about like oh what we need is like an
American Shonen Jump yeah we need a
magazine with like everyone's comics in
it and I'm thinking that's the PCP it's
called Marvel it's called it's called
the perfect one we'll see the thing in
my head I'm thinking like well because
they talk of the fact that they talk
about like an actual magazine makes me
think I think you're working backwards
because um no one really reads magazines
like they they still make them but it's
they're very expensive and they're only
made for a specific group of much older
audience who still like buys them and
whatnot right so to do a magazine it's
kind of like probably like working
backwards um there are people out there
trying to do their own like American
shining jump and they all seem to be
doing just fine
um that being said I I think that um I
don't know I think um there isn't much
of a presence that present that for that
kind of stuff here I think well one of
these like American show Ninja Jump
types need to do is that they probably
just need to have like an anime or like
a cartoon based on one of their comics
and then they can get more highs on them
you know once once that because what
what usually like having a cartoon it's
like oh the formula Works guys
you know we got a cartoon just like the
Japanese right
but um who knows uh I don't know like
the end the industry pipeline is
different over here yeah it's yeah you
know what I I I get the the appeal I
mean obviously
if you have a comic and it's with a
bunch of other comics and they're all in
one place then every reader of every
comic will see everyone else's comic and
it's like oh it's like collaboration
it's like YouTube how do you repair my
video and then you cross-pollinate the
audiences
um
but like I don't know if people don't
read stuff like that online
the like the perfect comic party is not
trying to set out to be shown on jump
it's just like hey wouldn't it be cool
I'm gonna be like no nice thing
like I like the the aesthetic of having
a little publication having a little
little like a little thing maybe
printing it out
I think um
I don't know if I'd ever go down the
route of having some sort of like
Collective um
Magazine with everyone's Comics I wonder
how I wonder how like stuff like shot
and jump originally started if it was
the same thing where it was like a
handful of guys somewhere where they
could post their Comics actually you
know what that is how those start never
mind I remember uh maybe it was a
newspaper and it was like the fight
they did it and it's like what if we had
a newspaper with just the funnies in it
and it was the funnies the comments it
was kind of something like that I
remember
um I'm reminded of uh there's one
autobiography I read from a mangako who
started uh a specific uh genre manga and
he was talking about how him and his
brother would be friends with a bunch of
other people who were drawing they they
just would start their own magazine and
it was pretty easy to like print at like
redistrib distributed like back in the
day which would have been maybe the 60s
and um he was talking about how um they
would have to do something like a reader
contest because that's one of those
things that would like entice people
like oh if you um submit this to us
you'll get like a free so and so you
know to kind of like get more engagement
out of your readers you know
um I mean doing that now I don't I don't
know I I haven't heard of any like
successful someone like doing it very
successful I mean what would success
even look like you know
it would look like you buy the thing and
it's like oh Scott Pilgrim and Homestuck
in the same place oh God that sounds
like a nightmare
but um and they could they could they
could they could cross over like oh my
God John Egbert it's what are you doing
in my comment I'm thinking about like
because it's funny how the more I learn
about like how indeed creative people
are doing the more I realize like I'm
literally doing the same thing they're
doing it's just that they're
um more popular than me there was this
one guy who made a post on Instagram
talking about how his comic is like
published through Phantom Graphics which
is one of the bigger Publishers right
but the fact is that like phantographics
only sold like four copies of his comic
last year like only people only four
people bought copies
of it which is crazy because it's like
this is supposed to be found the graphic
it's supposed to be one of the bigger
Publishers but I guess they're not like
super interested in advertising this guy
or they do the kind of thing where they
expect since like every like artist
nowadays is like a pseudo influencer
they expect you to do the majority of
the marketing for them and they don't
have to spend money you know
um of course fancy graphic does Market
certain Comics but they only Market
their most popular stuff or stuff that
like the fan graphic does do specific
like um
they they translate like specific older
manga they um republish very old like
Mickey Mouse Comics that's like another
thing they do
you know
um and sure they do publish like the
Indie stuff but it seems like they only
like push
um the Indie stuff when it's someone
like popular or someone who like you
know already like made a big name for
themselves somehow you know and when
this guy was talking about like his
situation of like what he's going
through and how like oh he um they only
sold four copies for a big publisher I'm
thinking like well maybe I'm kind of
doing the right thing in in a way
because um with how I'm just like doing
the pre-orders and
and um this is the self-publishing that
yeah I've heard I've heard like
professionals
say like
if they were starting out now like
people like oh I've heard people say
like I get if they get asked like how do
I break into the publishing industry how
do I get a publisher and they just like
don't like if I if I were starting out
now I would just do self-publishing I
would self-publish everything I would I
wouldn't worry about
publisher but I just want someone to do
the work for me I want someone to do the
hard part for me I didn't want to do
marketing
that's that's kind of like the annoying
thing I mean I to be honest I really
don't really like doing marketing to be
honest which is what the [ __ ] funny I
know that's a funny thing for me to say
okay especially coming from me right
what the [ __ ]
but like it's uh
it's it's it's tough out there I
remember um out there thank you last
year I was talking to I I've talked to a
small like I talked to a couple of small
Publishers and it's funny how they're
just kind of already doing the thing I'm
doing and I'm wondering like why am I
even approaching these guys uh one guy I
talked to saying like yeah I um yeah
like I told them about like one time I
did pre-orders uh for for villain verse
I I made like around two thousand
dollars and this guy's saying like damn
we never made that amount of money ever
in our publisher right there you go and
another time I was asking because I went
around I was asking for smaller
Publishers and saying like hey do you
guys um
do you guys help me like get this
specific kind of printing and they told
me like oh we probably can't do that but
you should go to this printer and the
one they recommended was the one I
already used for everything else and
they told me that they used that printer
and I'm like why do I even need to use
your guys like what I
it's it's it's interesting because it's
like they kind of have a name locally so
I guess that's like the benefit but
it's like what's the point you know I
just got the box from the printer with
the copies of the radcon dojin
the the people that the people that the
cut the few people that purchased a
print copy for me I will be sending
those yes I found it on my doorstep
yesterday I think I ordered like 30
copies and I think I sold like less than
half of that many including like the
people that I'm just giving free ones to
because they wrote the script and Drew
and Drew the comments so I've got like a
bunch left hey everyone saintcomics.com
store.html buy buy one of these please
uh get out of the combo combo with road
to radcon it's the rad combo ah but I
already have wrote to red
oh the bike too please it's fine
uh I'm good oh God
this is why you should never be a
distributor
it's okay you'll have boxes and boxes of
stuff you know what it's purchase
honestly that's why I do pre-orders I
hate the idea of having a shitload of
boxes of comics that no one's buying I
have like um that's smart yeah I didn't
even think about it yeah I mean I I like
you know how many people are gonna buy
it so you get exactly that amount you
know what's my you know what's my dream
position like if I had to choose where I
would want my life to be is um so and my
big example for this is the mega64
podcast they do this kind of interesting
thing that's a pretty smart on their on
their side where like what an episode of
their podcast drops they say on that
episode hey
um and you only get the news through the
episode it's like hey we're gonna have a
a 42 hour special on this shirt starting
from when this episode drops so you
should get it now right and it's like
damn imagine like having that big of a
podcast where um you can say like Hey
we're happy you could do a pre-order
like the podcast episode is the
announcement for the pre-order like hey
like you know you you get the pre-order
for this and it's like limited so and so
at that time right and that kind of like
you know incentivizes people to like go
buy it in that moment like once that
episode drops right
um and that's that's kind of like where
I I think that's what position I would
like to be and and it won't even be like
I I think if I if I get like because I
do have like a local San Diego cop uh
comic Collective that are pretty cool
people and I really love the people
there
um I would love to get to a point where
that that collected I'm part of if I'm
not even like like I guess our own
podcast or something like that where um
where we just announced the stuff you
just pre-order like right away like on
the podcast itself you know
that that's kind of like where I want to
go with all this to be honest
then marketing which take care of itself
yep yeah exactly it's Gotta Get clout
you just gotta get clout you just gotta
get caught the exactly what I'm thinking
of doing is I make Clarissa or in the
process of making Clarissa uh I get back
into making videos and I make like
Banger videos that everyone loves
and then I can say go from YouTube this
massive website to my tiny little Amazon
thing buying my comic or read it even
and they'll all be mine
[Music]
I'll make hypocrite videos for money
who would have thought of such a thing
that's amazing where you're not making
it for money before
no I was making it because I love making
videos I thought it was so cool I
thought it'd be so famous famous like
just like the the just like the guy with
the glasses just like Doug Walker
yeah I mean unironically that's why I
started
actually there was a part of me it was
like oh you can make money on YouTube so
it was also for money
but mostly because I wanted to be like
one of the cool Gamers on the website
nice
I think I could have done it if I didn't
hate it
if I didn't get burnt out that's
it's so true
what everyone needs like their own
little cash cow like their own little
thing of above that people love they're
like oh I love this I'll buy it I'll buy
it everyone needs their own little Smash
Bros which is like tough yeah in the
future everyone will have their own
little Smash Bro
um do you guys watch little Joel yeah uh
most of yeah I often I I haven't seen
them all but uh those are one little Joe
is the true successor to digi after dark
uh yeah it's only good
um
but Little Joe made a video about like
how he made a popular video
make art that is you're passionate about
it's like nah just make arts popular so
you get to feel good about it and you
get the money and it's great I'm like
you know what I need more of that that
energy in my life yeah because I I have
spent my entire 20s being like no I'm an
artist I have to do things I'm
passionate about yeah look where I am
now well I'm not knowing the
procrastinator's podcast I'm on the
procrastinators podcast I need to um I
need to get big and popular enough for
like people don't like to hear because
unsolicited advice kind of rude kind of
cringe right but if you're popular
enough you give that unsolicited advice
and they'll be sucking your dick oh my
God you can't they're lap it up I
learned more from this guys from this
guy's uh roast of me than I did in my
entire college career that I spent 500
000 to get ah Ben would you rather have
one million dollars or a dinner with
cheesy manfredo
and my advice would be kind of like uh
is there anything is there something
popular that you really like right now I
just do your version of that that's it
that's my advice yeah it's like would
you rather have a billion dollars or a
fortune cookie written by Oscar Wilde
I'll be I'll be honest something
uh with that that little Joel he's
talking about like he did the um he did
that series of three sort of like kind
of artsy like essays the ones about like
Godzilla and like global warming yeah
and those were okay uh I didn't hate
them I didn't really love them either
they were they were good yeah they're
more heady than and then and the one he
made more recently was more puppy and
like yeah clickable I didn't like that I
didn't like the new one I thought I
thought the new one was bad uh it's
boring it's like yeah
these literally made the same video
before
it's terrible so I feel
I get I get that like yeah his like
artsy one didn't wasn't a huge hit and
like you know that's fine I don't I
don't like that the lesson he took away
from it is just make the same crap over
and over
like I know he's just I know he's just
joshing I know he's kind of just joshing
he's kind of just Russian I think it's
it's just um
you can get like stuck trying to go for
only artistic masterpieces when it
doesn't actually take that much out of
you to just throw a little crowd pleaser
out there
and to make yourself feel accomplished
yeah nothing wrong with that nothing
wrong with that nothing wrong with that
um yeah well you know that's
but that's not how the coolest people
ever constantly we're making bangers and
they would never doing anything that
sucked I feel a little bit stupid uh
because it's been so many months it's
been like five months since the Mega Man
lecture but like that was kind of my
plan with get back into doing lectures
like that's that's the crowd pleaser uh
and then I have not followed up the
lectures and then be like oh this
lecture was sponsored by visca Page
Biscuit Paint they're great yeah they're
biscuits they're great
exactly okay
um and you know with that I gotta I
gotta get going okay cheesy eggs is out
here all right okay yeah I appreciate
you guys have y'all no sweat no no
people ain't gonna complain that cheesy
made the episode longer I was the one
complaining the most so
yeah I won't
complain again I'll find other things to
complain about all right good good all
right good job have a good day all right
talk to you guys later later
uh I was gonna say
um yeah the Le the me deciding deciding
to do more lectures in the Mega Man
lecture in particular was me being like
I should just do the things people like
I should just make the things that
people liked and that were successful
uh and then I did it once and I was like
well I did it no need to continue doing
that but I should and I really you know
I mean you've been working on on the
Battle Network I mean yeah yeah it
wasn't the next lecture but that's a
lectures that is still doing a lecture
that is work on it on a future lecture
that I am doing that's true uh you know
I've been um I've been putting off
really getting to work on the net on the
next lecture because
um whenever it's time to work I'm like
well I gotta work on uh I gotta work on
peacekeepers gotta work on you know get
the perfect comic party so that's uh
yeah yeah
uh but you know
as soon as the first issue's out I'll be
like okay time to step back and the next
the next thing on my to-do list after
get the perfect comic party sort of up
and running to to whatever extent then
the next thing is all right let's let's
do let's do the next lecture
um
Etsy ghosted me I ordered some stuff
from Etsy for like the video for the
Slime and Punishment uh video
and it just didn't come
I paid like 45 for some fabric
and it just didn't come
and I guess I'm gonna have to complain
about it was it was it sent but not
tracked or something yes it was it said
it was sent but it was it's not they
didn't have tracking on it and it said
it was supposed to arrive by like
three days ago
so we're past the time when like I
should be complaining
but I haven't done it it was the most
annoying isn't it when it's not tracked
so it could arrive as soon as you like
buy another one yeah it could just be
right
so it's like you you can't afford to
wait wait around so you gotta kind of
buy the next one yeah and then it
arrives anyway and it's like yeah I I'm
not buying I'm not buying another I'm
gonna I'm gonna complain until they
refund me because this is [ __ ] at
least
at least it's for the Slime and
Punishment thing which it turns out I
didn't need that soon because I have
wait no wait no before Oh no before I do
the next lecture I have to do the Slime
punishment I have to do the Slime and
Punishment never mind I take it back I
take back the order I said well why do
you have to do the slime with punishment
because I just need to I just just I
just need to do it I just need it just
needs to be done
the the book The the kickstarter just
needs it's I should have done this
Kickstarter like
three years ago
uh um well and I just had and I just
have to start it and then when it's
running I can be working on the lecture
while the kickstarter is running I don't
have to spend the entire month
focused on it so that's that's the
actual order
PCP perfect comic party then that done
okay make a video and launch the Slime
and Punishment Kickstarter okay and then
while that's running work on the next
lecture okay
um
too many things too many freaking things
on my to-do list irons in the fire I
yeah irons and that yeah
feels better to look at them as irons in
the fire
um then then items on an on a list of
things that never seems to get any
shorter
it never will that's the the annoying
truth is that the list I've been keeping
track of a thing like a list of things I
got to get done and it never really goes
away there's just a few things that stay
on there for so long because it's like
that's hard and that's like I don't know
how to start that thing and then it's
like tiny little bits little updates to
the site like oh there's a glitch there
I should go into the code and figure out
what's yeah what's not correct and now
I'm gonna do my taxes
I got my text letter as well but it said
like you've got until January 2024 to
pay last year's taxes so I guess I've
already done my taxes in January
I guess Americans have them in April or
are for the previous years taxes are due
in April of the the next year
yeah
yeah I always have my tax thing like
around Christmas like ah [ __ ] I should
have done my taxes before the Christmas
holidays now I got to do them during
January
doesn't really take that long but it
does it doesn't really take that long
like I have all my I have all I'm just
gonna open up all of my stuff yeah all
the things the thing that takes long is
going back through all my expenses and
trying to be like that counts as a
business expense that counts as a
business expense yeah and tallying all
that all that stuff up
oh
yeah you gotta make you gotta make uh
YouTube videos of all the things you buy
just hold them onto the camera so
there's YouTube content it's part of my
brand it's part of my
for my thing it's it's just I gotta go
through back through my bank statements
and every time I see an item if I like
was that was that for a video was that
for a comic was that for some other
potential
future money making Endeavor oh all my
all my ingredients for all my gummies
well I intend to uh yeah I just ate
those but you know I'm intend to sell
them at some point in the future so
that's a business expense that that's
like research and development expense
ooh I just got
I just got a uh I just got a gallon jug
of black strap molasses uh I'm gonna try
I think after after this I'm gonna try
chucking that I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm
gonna try I'm gonna try a licorice again
and I'm gonna try replacing uh
I'm gonna try replacing uh probably
replace
the liquid sugar I'll probably replace
the invert sugar with blackstrap
molasses and just see what happens
you're gonna invert the molasses
I think it's probably already inverted
or it's some other kind of sugar I don't
know
yes I don't know anything about all that
it's it's very wet food it's very
mysterious cornstarch it's very
mysterious listen when you cook down
sugar and starch
um what's that corn oil corn sugar
corn syrup syrup high fructose corn
syrup
I use the non-high fructose kind all
right when you cook down sugar you cook
it it gets this first it becomes the
soft ball then it becomes the firm ball
then it becomes Hardball
then it becomes crackling oat bran wait
no that sounds like a hard Cube
the saw the softball stage no no here we
go here we go uh softball
firm ball hard ball soft crack and hard
crack there you go
that's that's the goal is to get that
I'm all about that hard crack uh that's
speaking of crack I I bought
um on eBay the Bionicles
yeah you know the Bionicles you haven't
heard of them
yeah
I love them and I have been missing them
for a decades or whatever I uh I never
had I didn't realize I didn't realize
that the original six were like cheap
and like not a problem I got the whole
set yeah I mean they were very they were
a very popular toy so I'm not surprised
they're available
yeah I thought like oh Bionicle
collectors there's probably like it's
and it's an old thing so it's like I
assumed it would go up in price like a
video game cartridge would no but no you
just I just have them now and they're
they're back they've been gone for so
long they've been gone for so long my
product my prodigal sons have returned
there's metanui there's shiranui
UE
Z
Topeka I I only learned these by this
importantly Sean and Topanga
uh there's golly there's pohatu or new
racists it is a little bit racist
but I love it I love them they're little
they're little masks and the fact that
their their skull has the like
see-through plastic so if you shine a
light behind it or if the sun's behind
it blasts through so they've got like
green or red like glowing eyes hang on
they're the coolest I love them I'm
gonna carefully examine
we they have a skull
yeah like did you never have Bionicle no
never
um they I thought they had like a mask
yeah the mask that it attaches like in
the mouth the mouth is like a like a lit
you could put a Lego stud in there I
don't think a Lego stud would actually
fit but like imagine that
and the mask is a Clips onto their mouth
and their head is like a gray like skull
sort of thing that's what I found the
gray skull it's like their their brain
which is like a crystal of a clear
plastic colored plastic mine too light
light shines through it
and they've got different eye colors and
it's looks so cool I found this was the
second like like eBay result when I
searched for Bionicle
well don't search for such things I
searched for Bionicle and this is what I
found it's your search history there's a
lot of they know what you've been
looking for pornography on eBay
I'm so I'm so horny I'm gonna log onto
eBay and buy some erotic sculptures just
to just to rub out a quick one is that
Jasmine from the Disney's Aladdin um
um
no mask show me show me the maskless
oh you yeah they're kind of like gross
weirdos they're kind of gross weirdos
but the masks make them so cool
instantly it's amazing like you take the
mask off and it's like oh this guy is
[ __ ] oh and then you put the mask on
you put the mask on and it's like Ah
that's cool
I remember there was these Barnacles and
then I was looking into this because I
was trying to figure out when I fell off
the Bionicle bandwagon
and they have different like every year
it was like in 2001 or 2000 they
released hmm
and every year there would be like a new
like line of Bionicles
the second year was these little Round
Guys these little circular like snake
men
and they would be also of the like six
um genders six uh elements yeah yeah
yeah
um and and they they had like a an
action figure thing where you pulled a
little piece of Lego at the back of
their neck
their head would jump forward like a
snake
Metroid I I watched Dave I watched like
a video explaining like the history of
Bionicles not that long ago
not not like the in-world lore but like
the the production and like like the
iterations that Lego went through
of like releasing a bunch of themed
action figures that were Elemental yeah
of which there were several different
ones and Bionicle was merely one and
prop was the most well known and
successful
ah strange a lot of people people keep
one of the most popular requests I get
for when what's your next lecture going
to be is on Bionicle lore
which um
I guess there's lore there I said I I
say that it sounds terrible but I don't
know maybe it's funny maybe it's cool I
mean there's enough of it that you could
have like good stuff I'm pretty sure the
climax I've seen parts of a comic before
that came with like one of the Lego
figures it's like the comic looks good
it's like genuinely cool looking I don't
know if the story is good but like I
mean like
what's there like there's like an
animated series there's an animated
series
video games this is the whole thing
that's not that much lore I don't think
it'd be that hard to explain right like
it's not Mega Man where there's like 45
different video games oh no no not a not
at all I don't even know if it would be
that hard maybe I should just do it
maybe I should just do it
maybe I should wait a minute maybe I
should just make a video that would be
popular and that people want to see oh
my goodness what the [ __ ] no but my
notes but my art oh my my artistic
Purity the purity of my artistic
intention demand that I make my next
lecture about a [ __ ] Battle Network
it's just so artistically pure it's like
in the in the wake of um
remember that remember uh the you know
Nate had the um the freaking uh the
weaponized thickness I don't know if I
mentioned this in the in the Vlog that
he made immediately following the viral
success of weaponized thickness when
that video got two million views
he says like
I could make t-shirts of it people have
asked me for weaponized thickness
t-shirts and I could do them and they
would sell and it would make me money
but I won't do it I can't do it because
I'm just a slave to it's like my pure
it's like not my pure artistic Vision
huh so like yeah he's like I I can't
it's too commercial like it's too it's
too crass he doesn't say it in this many
words I'm paraphrasing but basically
he's like it's too crass and Commercial
and I just don't want to do it I'm an
artist I'm not some kind of I'm not some
kind of merch Hawker
uh I'll never make t-shirts
right the nickel the nickel uh
it's just weird it's just weird like
what why why not just make a shirt
why not just make a shirt maybe it's
just annoying but I feel like you could
easily have made a weaponized thickness
thing
yeah I mean he said so he said he said
yes sure card Gothic of course he said
he said people were asking for one he
knew they would sell but he won't do it
because it's not
art
I don't know
um before we end this yeah section I
just want to post the third generation
with these guys or they were like
villain Bionicles and they had stars and
these I remember having one of these
and as I think was 2003 and 2004
um I think 2004 onwards was when they
just did the original six but they had
different masks and I felt like the
masks weren't as good and so I was I
fell off I was like no
that's 2004 onward is apparently where
it got really big and like there was so
much stuff there's video games and all
that in the movie and I'm like oh by
that point I was gone I was I was out of
it I was out of the game
graduated graduated as they say in the
uh in the vtuber space yeah
they won't let me back
uh uh
you know what I mean you know what me
Halo nah
sorry I was gonna need bacon sandwich it
was very yummy that was that was fast it
was only a small sandwich yeah really
wolf it I've wolfed it I wanted to get
back to the show so much do you want to
talk about one piece
um new one piece chapter
yeah I think so okay okay well guess
what
there's a new one piece chapter and it's
called chapter 1080 the hero of Legends
uh uh and we see there's a bunch of new
1080p n80p
let's see let's see okay so my vape my
vague recollections
uh there's a bunch of the the the the
Blackbeard Pirates have a bunch of new
fruits
one of their guys is an island man and
he just is the island that they're on
that's pretty wacky bizarre I don't
remember if these fruits they already
had them
some of these I some of these I remember
I'm not sure if they had them already I
know
the the invisible fruit they got that
from
uh the moria's subordinate who's that
guy Absalom Absalom yeah I remember I
remember him getting it from Absalom
um Blackbeard using his I forget what
what he what do you even have this is
this is the part where all the people
who read one piece and know it are
pissing themselves with rage that we
don't already know the things we're
we're thinking about here's the ones I
think I don't remember I've never seen
an island island fruit before I've never
seen the glug glug fruit before I've
never seen the huge huge fruit before
yeah these are reveals I guess of their
fruits
recently uh I mean
San Juan wolf is already huge
someone wolf what does it mean that he
has eaten the huge huge fruit well if
you look at him uh in comparison to
other Giants he is far larger than any
giant ever in history
and so people like why is he so big and
it's because he's a giant that ate a
devil fruit that also makes you big so
he's just bigger than the average giant
do you think he had already eaten it
before oh yeah I think that's that's
like he he like walks along the ocean
floor and it it's like makes him tired
because he's a devil fruit user
um
yeah okay that might yeah
yes I believe that hizara being an
island fruit
it's sort of
it feels very similar to pink eye and
that guy in the interest Rosa who has
the something something turns into a
mountain or stone or like the like
terrain terrain fruit or something like
that something of that nature so I guess
this is just the same thing but bigger
everyone's so [ __ ] big you just I
guess you know he can do it with a whole
island but he can only do it with
natural terrain well no no because he
becomes he becomes the wooden
floorboards and it becomes like the
brick
wall
yeah it's a pretty wacky because he's if
he's an island surely he feels the
the edge of the ocean laughing at his
himself surely that makes him weaker
if he can constantly be in contact with
that yeah an islet wait an island is in
the ocean what the [ __ ]
yeah so that's pretty [ __ ] up oh uh
and then this lady with the whip whip
fruit
yes I love all of the the sword members
so I don't really know what she's doing
with her whip oh
um okay she's just she's whipping a
building
and making it move yeah she's got a
devil fruit
that makes
inanimate objects react to her
um uh what do you call it
like dominatrix whipping it's like move
back boy be a good boy and and move and
the building does as she's taught as
it's told
very interesting
fascinating so yeah we're on we're on
Pirate Island it's Blackbeard's land
or is is territory and we've got the
Blackbeard Pirates just [ __ ] around
and Kobe who we knew was with
um Pirate Island Fuller lead is what my
uh my translation says
I'm reading the viz translation
ah
probably
yeah probably cooler than whatever that
means
or maybe it literally is that that's
localization baby yes
uh so yeah there's the there's the um
crust Guild Bucky's thing I was gonna
say the bounty on Kobe that's from
buggies
crew yeah buggies organization the cross
Guild
uh I because I would assume it is a
guild where you don't cross them I don't
know very honestly very cool to see uh
bounties out on Marines I just think
that's really fun yeah I I liked that
aspect
of buggies like progression yeah yeah
he's always getting people to fight for
him and what better way to get people to
fight the Marines than to put bounties
on their heads and he's got so much
power and wealth
that he can he can he can afford that
it's like really funny
it's pretty awesome and the they have a
star rating
there's a bait Apparently one star is
about one star is one Treasure Chest
which is worth about a million berries
it is very abusing that they they like
like pirate treasure chests of booty
right right
uh
uh yeah so Blackbeard we saw
Blackbeard's ship heading in the
direction of uh egg
land
yes
and so I was I was hypothesizing him no
no I guess we didn't see him we just saw
his flag
the things we've seen Blackbeard going
on about recently uh Blackbeard fighting
law
yeah and I presumed that because kid was
defeated by Shanks Lowe's probably
defeated by Blackbeard and then
Blackbeard is on his way after that too
um Luffy at uh what's it called is it
Newegg what's it called Egghead Egghead
um he's on his way to Egghead I don't I
guess that new egg is that the that
website you can buy computer parts
that's right yes I mean it's it's
basically the same sure you get computer
parts of vegapunks Island
um and so this I think takes place
before that because we knew Kobe was
captured by Blackbeard I assumed he was
on the ship
and we might see him at uh Egghead and
if he's escaping now which I assume is
before
but then
I don't know what what do you think
could happen here because like Kobe is
trying to escape he's getting all of
these other people these prisoners
escaping is like he's being a hero
um and then the Blackbeard Pirates are
just [ __ ] around
and they think haha whatever stupid Kobe
no chance but then
Kobe's friends Kobe's uh uh comrades
nakama they're coming in and they've
really got some cool Powers mm-hmm
and they're like showing up and they're
being like oh these are these aren't
just regular cops these are Renegade
cops that are above the law yeah they're
taking the law on their own hands of
their own hands they they can they go to
license to kill
um they're gonna turn in their gun and
their badge
oh I really like hibari she's she's
using she's the one with the rifle who's
using the uh she was the Vega Punk
flower flowers yeah the flower shot
that's cool also I really like her weird
[ __ ] clown tights and like Army shoe
combo
yeah she's cute yeah the striped I like
the stripe tight it's very cute oh it's
got It's on one leg yeah oh yes it's
ripped off at one leg that's fun that's
cute and she's like it's not like I like
you or anything Kobe
Kobe's getting all these ladies
he's surrounded by them it's great
have we seen this clay man with the
prince prince groose he looks kind of
familiar I don't think we've seen any of
these people before I think they're all
um
like new except well obviously except
for GARP I don't think there was
there was a bit
earlier
is here as well
um yeah
where there was
everybody's favorite helmapo alongside
some other girl
who was crying that Kobe's been stolen
by Blackbeard and saying GARP we gotta
go save him
I forget I don't think she's probably in
a panel here but not prominently
featured
she's not one of these new people
just some skank
yeah it was okay hey why is aokiji here
uh aokichi if you remember fought
against uh Akainu and created Punk
Hazard at the end after the Marin Ford
thing and it was over a disagreement
about
the Marines and how things should be run
and so they thought about it and uh
aokiji left and then he joined
Blackbeard
he joined Blackbeard yeah he joined
Blackbeard after that and he's like got
that like yeah he's been part of
Blackbeard's crew or like an ally I'm
assuming he's part of the crew
I don't really know what his deal is
because he doesn't seem like the sort of
guy who would just join to be part of
the bad guys I don't think he wants to
kill people maybe Blackbeard has more of
a plan than than where we're led to
believe
I feel like aokiji's joining Blackbeard
not like because he agrees with
Blackberry because it's advantageous to
whatever ends rkg he must be doing
something
um I mean because I like how kichi he
seems like an upstanding fellow and
Blackbeard seems like a bit of a bit of
a scoundrel and not not quite the same
level of I don't know Blackbeard's just
out for himself so like I don't get
what's what's the appeal of working with
him
for something like now being on a
powerful pirate crew to insulate him
from the Marines or something yeah
just wants to join The Winning Side
could be something like that I don't
know
I feel like the fact that he let Nico
Robin go all those years ago means that
he doesn't actually believe the Marines
are the good guys fully yeah definitely
definitely
um
okay yeah well I forgot I was I was
shocked to see him here but I guess that
explains it
um
we unfortunately do not get to see what
the glug glug fruit does yeah it just
makes bubbles like glow books and Rayman
two three Rayman three no no that's the
um
the huge that's San Juan wolf making the
bubbles making the the snaps is a Vasco
shot isn't it well novasko shot is
riding a bubble but the bubbles are just
coming out of uh the San Juan Wolf's
nose or whatever I don't think that's a
fruit power
[Music]
and it's gonna give him so much power
so it's called a booze Man heavy drinker
who ate the glug glug fruit
I assume that means he can like
inebriate people
and and things like that create turn
water into wine and he's like oh my
goodness is Jesus
yeah I mean
it could be it could be I'll turn your
blood alcohol levels a little too high
and then you'll fall over it could be a
logia I guess but probably not
I mean
just a made of alcohol you just set him
on fire
yes oh yeah that would be pretty easy
actually
uh
hmm okay okay
see here I mean what's um
so the other thing about this there's
Mario okay yes
so piranha I guess is outside
and she gave the keys to Kobe so that he
could free Moria
and free himself
so there's like a little Alliance there
I'm sure Kobe will hold up his end of
the bargain because he's a good boy yeah
which means Moria will be back in the
game
in some fashion
which is interesting we haven't seen
Mario for so many we were just weren't
we just talking like a couple weeks ago
about how is Moria even still alive
yeah I mean
I thought he died at the Battle of Marin
Ford
and I guess he didn't yeah I don't
remember when it was made it clear I
think uh it became it became like of
overtly clear when Absalom came to
Blackbeard and said please let my
captain go so I'm like okay he's alive
but maybe it was already made clear in
some other fashion earlier than that hmm
but yeah he's been like ever since Luffy
beat him
he's been taking L's
yeah what's gonna happen because like
he's got a powerful fruit yeah
well maybe he doesn't have it anymore
maybe blackberry fruit is the one that
he can just put people's Shadows into
other things and it animates those
things and turns them into zombies or
whatever
specifically he takes your Shadow away
from you yes and can put it wherever he
wants and he can put it in himself he
can put it inside a zombie but if you
don't have a shadow and the Sun hits you
you burn to death
right which is the the scary thing about
uh having no Shadow is that you burn in
the sunlight
come I forgot about that that was the
whole like taking clock at the end of
Thriller block where a thriller bark
because of various things that happened
on the island the ship that's an island
it had drifted out of like
the
it's not the Bermuda Triangle but it's
like a version of a big cloud that's
constantly nighttime and it was drifting
out of it because somebody had like
broken the rudder or something during
all the fighting and
for the first time in a long time the
sun was rising and everyone who didn't
have a shadow was like we gotta kill
morya and get our shadows back otherwise
we'll all burn to death
um
that was so cool awesome awesome yeah
yeah and then he took he took uh right
he took Brooke's Shadow and put it and
that was ryuma right he put Brook's
Shadow into ryuma yeah okay
that's how Zora got the sword ah so many
things all comebacks
so like I'm excited to see how Maria
comes back into the story in some small
way
and perona obviously she's been around
with Hawkeye but then when Hawkeye lost
his uh immunity from the Marines he had
to go into hiding and piranha had to run
away
mm-hmm as one does
and so like I don't know where Hogback
is
never not seen him in a while
wouldn't it be cool if like the three
completely forgot who about Hogback
didn't expect to ever see hog back again
but maybe a Hogback and what's the the
lady who's a zombie who's like throws
dinner plates
uh it's like the lady he made to be his
wife but she hates him even though he
created her oh God yeah
right and she just hates dinner plates
and I forget I think it's because of the
Shadow she has in her
that causes that
[Music]
that's one of the arcs that I
have not gone back to I've gone back to
re-look at earliest stuff I'm actually
doing a reread with a bunch of people uh
including munchie
who is now going to be reading one piece
yes I've heard about that very exciting
but I've not re-read everything and so
certain parts have just not gone I've
not gone over them a second time
look at look at Prince Gru's making his
little his little glorp glorp self
look at look at his little man glorp and
glorp South
he's making a little he's making this
little boy he's made as a little boy
he's a very cute little boy yeah
uh it's pretty pretty cool pretty cool
uh oh yeah and I guess uh to wrap up
what happens in the chapter GARP appears
on a flying ship on his flying Marine
Galleon with a dog head and then he does
a Galaxy first
just blasts their [ __ ] town
Smithereens he's so [ __ ] strong
pretty [ __ ] strong do anything
what do you think is gonna happen here
first of all
well I guess it's GARP versus Blackbeard
yeah and like
I don't know if garbage I guess it's
gonna remember when the Blackbeard crew
that's here and yeah it's gonna be the
it's going to be sword the sword members
versus the Blackbeard crew like how else
can this go
well it's gonna be a fight but like
engagements maybe maybe we won't see
them we won't see I think we'll hear
about what happened and it'll be like a
big moment like if GARP is dead
that would be a huge moment I don't
think he's gonna die but he might get
defeated he could die honestly died yeah
but I don't think and this is and this
is the main villain of the series that
he's going against and he's doing it to
rescue his boy this is this is when old
men die this is when old men die in one
piece it's when they stand up for their
boys
and this is the thing Blackbeard ship is
on its way to Egghead so presumingly
presuming that this didn't happen that
long ago because oh this is a flashback
yeah GARP wants to go save it might not
be a flashback but I don't know where
Blackbeard would be if not here because
who's on the ship this could be this
flashback I think it might be but like
GARP is doing this
um disobeying orders to be part of the
fleet heading for Egghead so we know
it's happening around the same time
and if Kobe's hair and darp's hair
then either GARP saves Kobe and they
leave
and then for some reason Blackbeard
appears at achead or
Blackbeard is running
two Egghead from GARP or
the people on the Blackbeard ship are
not who you expect yeah or some other
thing like it's lots of like
whenever we I thought like who's on that
ship will know what happened here like
this is going on now and that ship is
just someone else I mean not the entire
cruise not here
uh like who he could have just sent like
that is also true I don't remember who
the other who the other guys are uh let
me look it up real quick um oh yeah yeah
yeah no I've I made a mistake the bit
where Kobe is like kneeling before
Blackbeard is a flashback
and currently Kobe is you know on the
island escaping so the bit where he's
kneeling
before
like black bear is there and he's like
haha [ __ ] you little boy
oh right when he says I'm sword
yeah I'm a member of sword and it's like
yeah that so
oh yeah there's van Alger that could be
a flashback
it could be I think though flashbacks
are usually denoted by the background
being either gray or black yeah and this
is not gray or black so maybe you're
right and this is currently happening
right now GARP is attacking Blackbeard's
Island yeah when Blackbeard is not here
and he's actually at Egghead with the
rest of his crew
I think so okay so this the crew we so
we don't see
um Lafitte
is this this new guy that we just met
Lafitte van auger Jesus Burgess Katarina
Devon
and I think that's it I think we so
there's like a bunch of people that
could be on that ship
yeah and we know somewhere else we know
that because we've seen recently
the ship has uh a Brig and in the break
is uh what's her face
um 3A girl
pudding pudding is on that ship she
probably still is
and she was kidnapped putting uh sanji's
bride yes pudding yeah from whole cake
um
she's in there
probably hasn't like because we've seen
her in the ship
it's probably safe to assume that the
ship contains her still and she's not
here on the island
and that was going on we saw her when
Blackbeard was fighting law
so maybe law could be with pudding in
the brig if he was defeated if he wasn't
defeated then he may have escaped
but pudding might be coming to see Sanji
again pretty soon that sounds very
likely uh okay so apparently Pizarro was
from impel down like I guess this is not
okay I forgot we'd seen him before yeah
yeah all of the Blackbeard additions
were from impel down I don't think
there's been any others since yeah yeah
um but we've seen we haven't seen much
of them this is the first time we're I
think even really seeing a conversation
with Pizarro and Vasco shot and stuff
yeah we've just kind of seen them around
apparently they each command their own
like [ __ ] they're on they're card with a
Blackbeard Fleet yeah they're called the
10 Titanic captains also okay okay so
apparently we did see sword before
here's like an old panel of
and it's several of the several of the
same people
uh I don't remember yes okay apparently
they were in
they were mentioned in chapter 498 and
also in 956 I think this panel is
probably from 9 56.
so yeah that hat guy
wait X Drake might be a member
I mean the wiki lists X Drake as an
active member of Sword I don't know oh
and then of course the three Golems
and then of course the three Golems are
the most important ones
Oh I thought 956 wasn't that long ago
but it's like it's
oh no it is it is 100 100 in some
chapter it was it's the reverie
I thought it was like Fishman Island
because I was seeing Fishman Island
stuff but it's GARP having a chat with
Neptune I forgot about this apparently
apparently sword was first mentioned as
far back as 498.
you gotta be [ __ ] on me you gotta be
crunch you gotta be you're gonna be
insane that's what it says
how could something have happened before
I don't I just I just don't know I don't
I can't explain it the romanized name is
SoDo
you're welcome you're welcome for that
uh
yeah there's a I think a bunch of the
the people are just a bunch of the
people pictured here might just be
Golems I think they're just clay Golems
so they're not real don't worry about
them
dear streak is in this chapter 9 56.
he is a captain of sword and he's
talking to Kobe huh
yeah I remember Drake talking to Kobe
but I I forgot that detail
I see
that yeah that does sound kind of
familiar actually hmm how the terror oh
that's right this is where Kobe talks
about yeah he says I'm on my way to the
island of women of course he is of
course he is perfect place to be for
Kobe to capture the pirate Empress Boa
Hancock because the shoes no longer
do you like Kobe
I think I don't like it I don't like him
I think that they made him too handsome
but aside from that I do like him I
think he's he's he's he's pure of heart
and like a nice little boy I mean the
fact that he has history with Luffy is
cool
I think he probably sees him as like a
little brother kind of I like that I
like that aspect of him I think I just
don't like how he looks I don't think he
looks cool and they're sort of building
him up as like a cool badass and he just
doesn't look cool
now smoker is the cool badass Marine
everyone agrees I feel smoker is the one
I feel he's like a future one he's a
little bit like momonosuke is a future
cool guy if he feels a little bit like
like Ryden from metal gear solid two
where there's like oh there's a new like
young pretty pretty boy badass in town
and he's the super strongest soldier of
all it's like no
no I don't like him
get him out of here
uh my God this chapter has so much [ __ ]
happening
the new one no no the uh the one I'm
looking back at 956 is I think it's when
uh at reverie they decided that this
chibukai were no longer
yes
uh protected by the Marines and so all
of the chupikai are reacting to that
knowledge and like
um
yeah buggy the clown is like freaking
out because he's no longer defending
defended so he I think this is where he
decides to create cross Guild
and then mihawk has been attacked and
then here's Edward Edward Weevil who
very briefly was part of the thing
is that one when we first saw Edward
Weevil no no we saw him before he caused
some havoc and they they said somewhere
they became a warlord but then they
abolished the warlordness
and now what's her face uh Stussy the
real Stussy now that we know her real
name
says yeah kill them all kill these
marines
and then Kobe goes to a respo Hancock
something something Blackbeard arrives
and captures Kobe and that's why we're
in this situation where Kobe is trying
to escape
and that was 100 chapters ago
wow that's so many chapters
could you even imagine drawing one
chapter of anything I can't let alone
two
a little thousand one thousand
uh 1080.
I can't wait for the 111 chapter
base dab
uh
uh well do we have anything anything
else to say about this uh this guy
looking forward to seeing what this
Egghead incident is all about I guess
yes they're building it up everybody's
gonna be there yeah I think I think it's
probably
other other Blackbeard Pirates are on
the ship and they're gonna probably
freaking whatever I've got a wacko I've
got a wacko um uh prediction I've got a
wacko prediction pudding has the ability
to remove memories from a person's head
that's her devil fruit ability what if
she removes the memories the the painful
memories from Bunny's head
oh upon requests like please I don't
want to know about it anymore please
just take them out of here take them out
of my brain yeah but it's like okay wait
what did um
who is that girl that Sanji was had a
little fling with in uh in a dressrosa
like vid
Violetta Violetta violet she had a power
right
yeah I think her character was really
badly handled she was just
she had the whatever power we needed for
this ARC Power what did it what did she
do
I think it was something like she could
see anyone around
let me let me look it up I can't
remember yeah I'm looking it up
or Viola viola
yeah
we're looking that up on the Heroes wiki
she looks so much better in the manga
than the anime dress for Rosa just
looked so ugly in the anime yeah they
stepped it up after dress Rose but I
remember dress Frozen being so not good
to look at appearance personality
relationships what's your just tell me
what a [ __ ] fruit is
allows her to see through solid objects
and over vast distances so she was just
accused as the I know what's happening
this information this is why I was
confusing her with uh pudding because
pudding has the third eye
oh yeah yeah okay
oh and then she sees
her she's she can see through sanji's
skin and bones
she has the power to read other people's
minds even view their memories She's
Impossible to deceive his power is
exceptionally useful for interrogation
yes for her job was yeah it was this
ability to let her see through all the
men who attempted to lie to her but then
Sanji
uh was so pure in his love for women
that she was taken aback that he wasn't
trying to be evil like me a woman oh my
God I can't believe men are men are all
out to deceive me they're all out to
just use me finally finally a man who
truly down and deep in his heart of
hearts loves women a man who loves women
he loves big tits on ironically and he
will never go trans
he's the biggest feminist of all
and it's proven by viola
it's funny because like it's not
it's like I I don't know if I'm reading
too much into it but it's
is it just that like
did he was he like in love with her or
does he just love women
I forget I mean he does he loves her
because he loves women right he's like I
love his love his love for me is pure
yes he would feel the same towards any
other female but it is nevertheless pure
I think that the thing is like
uh she sees that men are like Scoundrels
yes and and but even though she betrayed
Sanji and caught him and then got him
shot or something he was bleeding he
protected her because she's so sexy
right right right and she was like you
do that for me and then it turns out
that she was being oppressed by the
dress Rosa pirate
um crew anyway so she didn't actually
like being under them and uh
she was a big fan of Sanji after that
Viola can gigantify her tears and
subsequently detach and manipulate them
using them to pursue her opponents and
attack them with blunt force yeah that I
don't care what the [ __ ] it's it's a bit
odd
um but
I guess it's sort of like it's a bit of
a you know beanie over the head with a
thing maybe so Giro Giro I guess it the
the official English name is glare glare
but the the meaning of the word is a
glare or a stare so she and it turns
she's looking that's her power it turns
yes she is looking she's a looking to
human no she's an Insight human or in
the viz translation an eagle-eyed seer
none of that makes me think that she can
make giant tears that will bash you
I I I think that was just a part of like
ah [ __ ] it I just want to have like a
thing that lets her do a punch
like Oda was just like I need her to do
like a comedy moment where she beats the
[ __ ] out of someone with her own tears
yeah it says like yeah she could do it
sure whatever I get it like she she
awakened I feel like fruit in her tears
I do feel like
I do feel like there were too many
characters in dress for his own Viola
was unfortunately completely sidelined
after whatever small scenes she had with
Sanji yeah then she was just there and
then she disappeared from relevance
forever
yeah her power with her it's sort of
like one of those kind of kind of kind
of felt
kind of felt like they just kind of did
her again but with pudding
uh yeah they're very similar
I wonder if it was like an idea that Oda
had hmm like putting similarly is like I
know all of your secrets yes a similarly
is a woman that betrays him but decides
that she loves him anyway and also has
crazy crazy she betrays him
yes and and like
like she's never felt someone care about
her oh my God men usually abuse me this
is so [ __ ] up oh my God I said I love
your Sanji
your love for your love it's a good bit
you know you know what it'll be funny
it'll be funny and it'll be worth it if
like the series ends
and Sanji finds the all blue and then
like all the women that he's ever met
who have fallen madly in love with him
because his love for women in general is
just so pure and unadulterated and
they're all just waiting for him they're
like yes Angie we're here for you no no
more Isle of cross-dressers or whatever
you don't have to worry about that
anymore uh uh we we the we're here we're
here you're safe
marry us and then he will
yes yes
Sanji was nice to Kiku which which one's
Kiku Kiku is the trans girl in wano
born a boy yeah Samurai
um
acts and it presents feminine and
everyone just calls her she he
I don't I don't remember I don't
remember Sanji had anything to say about
that yeah I think he said I don't think
I don't think any thought of there was
no like overt
Trends
um like dialogue no they didn't in wano
yeah right right okay well nobody had a
problem with either of that except every
all the guys were like oh my God
the eyes bugging out Sanjay had the eyes
bugging out because Yamato was there
yeah bless his heart
uh
I ain't attracted the gender I'm
attracted to huge boobies that's what
Sanji said that's what he said they
asked him about that they looked at the
camera as he said
he said Sandy look directly dear
Princess Celestia today I learned today
I learned about trans rights trans
rights what about trans fats huh
they're in palm oil
oh
I'm gonna put him in my I'm gonna put
him in my Twizzlers
okay okay uh
um
oh you're talking about Viola because
pudding because oh yeah I think I think
it would Viola Viola would be fine with
me if there was a moment where Viola
came back
and pudding was there also and they were
fighting over cyanji you know because
they're so similar and be like ah so
yeah a little a little bit of a moment
like I wanna I wanna I want a big end of
the thing
end to the end of the thing uh just all
sanji's women they're just like
we're back we have we have uh but wait
does he I guess he doesn't really have
that many no he has putting anfield
putting in viola
and I guess like yeah this this women
who are indifferent to him they don't
hate him or like him in any specific way
like Kami the fish fish woman yeah
and and like uh just people he's friends
with like um
uh Vivi yeah
people he's friends with that he
uh uh you know he would do his comedy
routines
that they wouldn't really react to it
but he's not too pushy about it so you
know huh we can we can we can laugh it
off we can we can we can be friends
um
unless uh but uh maybe he'll get more
it's it's just interesting that like two
islands in a row they've given Sanji
a romance like a like a an actual sort
of like falls in love with a girl
and I wasn't exactly in a row because
there was the elephant in between yeah
oh yeah you're right
but yeah basically but they did it they
did it twice
it's weird that it happened twice it
never it never used to happen
um
we're built we're building to something
we're building to Sanji haramark
sanji's gonna become like Andrew Tate
shave his head
the ultimate feminists the ultimate
lover of women
there was um
I remember when the time skip happened
and Sanji had been in the Isle of of uh
transvestites the cross-dressing Island
the okama right the Oklahoma Land yes
and he had not seen a real woman
chameleon yeah because they're
disguising themselves as female
um but like he hadn't seen a beautiful
woman in a long time and he had
nosebleeds and he it was kind of like
he's going to die he was like he was so
much blood he was so backed up he was so
backed up from not letting his nose
bleed from seeing beautiful women that
he he was going he was backed up he was
clotting it was going to die yeah I
thought they had to release I thought
that the thing was gonna be permanent
that Sanji was going to like every time
he sees a woman bleeds to death and I'm
like no oh right this is this is like
because negative character development
he know he's now lethally vulnerable to
yeah it's no longer oh yes heart eyes
it's like he has a nosebleed and he has
to like tread brain hemorrhage yeah but
he did end up like figuring that out
good I don't want him to constantly be
bleeding that would be terrible I'm
happy for him
um
but like if all of the beautiful women
are all blue and it's like haha hi Sanji
would he bleed to death there you know
what he can just have the two he can
just he can just marry uh he can just uh
marry uh uh the the pudding and Viola
because they're like the same woman
anyway so he can just have both of them
and that's enough I think you'll be
happy with two one with each
eyebrows
when my when his eyebrow is swirling
counterclockwise he's in a viola type
mood and when his eyebrow is swirling
clockwise he's in a pudding type mood
that's how you know you know
Sanji
I mean he just he just cooked for them
he's too much of a gentleman he would
never lay a hand on either of his wives
he would just he would just make them
delicious roasts
because his true love is the sea
yeah I wonder about all that like is he
a virgin it would be funny if I feel
like he's probably I feel like if I if I
investigate this hard enough I think
he's probably canonically a virgin I
think they all are because none of them
[ __ ]
yeah I mean I don't know about Zoro Zora
I feel like boss's virginity who would
you [ __ ] who
um I dare you
uh one of the zombie gorillas okay yeah
I think I've definitely got some
Brooke yeah I mean who knows yeah they
gave him a bone or gave him a bone you
know didn't didn't I know there's the
line he said like the the true love is
Adventure or whatever
I don't know the series is pretty chaste
I know that there's been occasional like
dick references here and there there I
feel like by and large these characters
do not have sex
Luffy is asexual for sure doesn't give a
[ __ ] I don't know is it just Luffy do
you think it's just Luffy oh Philip yeah
I I lose I mean yeah Luffy definitely
just doesn't
heavy I think Frankie probably would
have Robin
it probably would have been quite dark
because she was a runaway girl she'd
probably been raped before Oh God
she had to do things together yeah yeah
I don't want to think about Nami either
because oh right she's also kind of a
child slave to arlong uh true
no see this is what I'm saying I think
they just don't I think these characters
just don't have sex like yeah I think
Frankie would have sex if you were a
real person in the real world but in in
the world of one piece I don't think any
of them have sex
uh fair enough that's
I just like the idea I just like the
idea of Sanji and pudding or Viola or
both of them and they're like coming on
to him and he's like haha I don't know
what to do anymore I didn't think
anything
they go to the honeymoon he's like
um uh should I cook something for you I
swear I swear to God I swear to God
their honeymoon is just he's gonna he's
gonna kiss their little ring fingers and
he's gonna and he's gonna cook fish for
them and that's their and that's the
honeymoon and they're gonna be like come
on come on ah come on
but he was too much of a gentleman
I've never faced sex with his wife I
remember defile a Woman by touching them
that's right that's right
um that's I think that's the I think
that's the right way to look at it yeah
so Sanji would be waiting on them hand
and foot I guess since they're not you
know they would get with each other I
think
okay Viola and pudding of course because
that's gonna be in the chair it's not
sex when it's two when it's two women
of course it doesn't count so and Sanji
would that's a good ending Sanji would
uh Sanji would he would uh he would he
would come in he'd be like
I'm gonna do his like his old like uh
four kids dub voice he'd be like hey
Viola uh we made I made you a nice fish
for you my darling and then he'd come
and they'd be making out and he'd just
be like huh what's this this is so silly
what do you do what do you what's that
what is what is this practical joke
doing that's so funny all right you kids
have you kids have fun now
um
there's there's a there's a funny
there's a video by Lily Alexander about
uh the I might have mentioned this stop
if I mention this it's it's about the
first filmed kiss the first filmed kiss
like there is a movie that's like
considered the first kiss and it's
between there's an actor and an actress
and they they banter and then they kiss
each other and that one's kind of famous
but there's actually another one before
that that's actually two naked women
kissing each other and you'd think that
that one would have been like really
scandalous that that was like put to
film but it's not because reason one is
that it was more of like it was like an
art reference it was a piece of like art
reference footage for artists to copy
when they were drawing it wasn't like
you know disseminated as like a cultural
thing why were all these artists
throwing the scandalous woman on woman
kiss and the other thing and that's
that's why they were naked is because it
was supposed to be like an anatomical
study but also it just wasn't seen as
sexual at all
because women did not have sexual
desires they were just
two women kissing is just that's just a
silly that's just a silly ridiculous
girl just do that they just like doing
that they just if they do it it's not
because they like it or it they even
thinking about anything at all it's just
a funny like it's like a it's just
really funny it's like if like a it's
like if like a giraffe were wearing like
a top hat it's like why is it doing that
that's so silly
um yeah
like literally though
um it was just a funny goof and nobody
even thought about it like it's like two
girls can't kiss that might overturn the
societal
all that all the historical lesbians
just sort of side eyeing each other like
yeah yeah it's just like a giraffe with
a head such a funny goof
it was exactly like we would play that
up they would play that up so they
couldn't wouldn't get attacked and
killed by the the anti-woke Brigade
that's what I would have done
I think that's probably how I would
handle it
wait you like doing that wait a minute
die wait a minute this is so this is so
[ __ ] uh
um I think we're done talking about the
chapter yes and I've got a p again
tragically so I'll be right back
tragic
okay sorry I'm back
let's um should we do voicemails
uh before that I wanted to talk about
this little spreadsheet
um what's this
I will screen grab it
uh for purposes of drawing my comic
Clarissa Gunsmoke and the Bandit King I
have taken to
uh keeping track of things uh to you
know like to think it's put numbers to
my progress
and I've it's a very small little
spreadsheet but I just I just really
like it it's just really cute and it
basically tracks my pages per hour and
my average pages per hour for line art
and shading slash uh finishing touches
finalizing of a page nice
so uh I have a week and sometimes I
don't do anything for days like whatever
but as you can see my most recent week
I've been
not doing much and I've been ratcheting
up the amount of time I'm spending I'm
gonna try and aim for like a six hour
day
and that's that's I'm just gonna keep
going
a bit more every day until I can you
know reliably do it
and uh
then at the top right my PPH my pages
per hour
I can I can see and I put all the little
code in so it like makes all the numbers
correctly and it's very simple and uh
it's nice my um
my numbers for Beast capades would be
really bad on these
I uh I take
I feel like my time per page is like
really awful especially considering that
like there's not that much drawing
involved
uh and yet it's they still just take me
forever
and I hate is it because you keep like
changing bits yeah it's because like
like drawing and redrawing bits it's not
drawing and redrawing so much as it is
like fiddling around with like how big
to make a panel or like where to
position it or like whether it should go
on the left or the right or or how or
where to crop it or something like that
and there's a lot of like switching tabs
because I'll switch from like the I'll
use the original art the original panel
and then I'll put it on the page and
then I'll resize and then I'll move it
and I'll just change my mind about how
big it to be and it's just very uh it's
very like
at any step of those process there's a
risk that I might lose focus and like
get distracted and decide like I'm gonna
like let me look at YouTube for a second
let me look at Twitter for a second uh
uh oh yeah those that's no good it is it
is no good so you know I had I mean it
happens to me as well but like I just
try to not I try to rain myself in when
I notice I'm doing it I tried to change
uh the the workflow so that like I just
like size the entire page down so that I
could just draw the panels directly onto
the page and then size the page up and
it it didn't really work because like uh
the the text did not scale
correctly like I had to like read I had
to like redo all of the
the texts and that was very annoying
because I
think that would have smoothed out my
workflow a bit and it like ended up
introducing like more steps and where I
had to like correct everything
I should say that this is a very
recently made spreadsheet this is
information to track like how many hours
you're working per day and how long it
takes you to finish a page and how long
for your line like this is good good
stuff to know yeah
but it does not include uh the hours
that went into all of the sketches for
all these Pages which involves all of
that mental labor of like thinking what
size of power should be what shape it
should be potentially usually sort of
things should be on this page that does
take a long time just thinking about it
and like trying stuff out usually the
hardest part and sometimes the one that
like gets you completely stuck and like
yeah you can't even finish it so if I
were to con I do want to continue this
spreadsheet just because over time the
average will be more accurate to like an
actual average of my like speed at
drawing line art or shading and I'm
going to do a third one for sketching
and like blocking out a page
because uh they're all different skills
but they're all important to track
but not together because like I don't
draw a page from start to finish
in one go I like draw the chapters pages
and sketch forum and then go do the line
art yeah because I feel like it's easier
to to think how to plan Pages out when
they're all like vague and I'm like oh
actually this page would be better if it
starts with a different panel so I need
to move panels around and that means the
previous page has to be different and if
it's already line art then it's like a
whole lot of bunch of work but if it's
if it's still sketched then I can easily
resketch
so yeah that don't feel too bad about
having to think about where the panels
go because that is a lot of of
it's more work than you would imagine it
takes I wanna I wanna try and I want to
try and cut down on it in some way I
think maybe
there's uh maybe there's some work
around the the text size issue because
it's really I mean you could just you
could just like
what I do with just just some decisions
I could make ahead of time to just kind
of standardize it a little bit to leave
less room for me to like fiddle because
fiddling I spent I can spend a lot of
time fiddling on like pretty Pointless
Stuff
if if I let myself
I mean what I would do if I'm sketching
a page blocking it out I would draw like
the very basics of what character is
there so I could look back at it and be
like oh yeah it's that character and if
they have a speech bubble where it's
going but you've had you could have text
like underneath
I think you don't need to like type it
out just put like I'm gonna put some
text here and then the next pen will be
here
and then you fill in the text later
after you've decided where the panels go
yeah
because you can always change the text
size to fit if you know if it's not
enough space I mean I'm sure you'll
you'll you'll you have plenty of space
on like an A4 or whatever size sheet and
the panels are not like
filling it up in the same way a
traditional comic word yeah
yeah
uh it's just it's just a workflow
it's gonna it's just the
just gotta nail down a more optimal
format and workflow
in a way that makes Pages go a little
bit smoother because they don't they're
not coming out smoothly right now but
just takes uh refining refinement
this sort of thing but this spreadsheet
is really quite motivating for me
because like I have a good day or like
next Monday this coming Monday tomorrow
I'm gonna be like all right I'm gonna
try and work for more than I did last
time so four and a half hours see how I
do
once I've done that my goal for the day
is done but then I get to put the
numbers in so I work for this amount of
time and how many pages got finished in
that time
and uh you know I put the numbers in the
little thing which goes up or down like
is my is my average improving I think it
should be because last week I was very
slow
I was just sort of
slowly starting to get things rolling
again mm-hmm
eventually you'll have a time when you
put the numbers in and average goes down
and that's inevitable
true
so don't be too tripped up when that I I
I will try not to I'm sure I'll feel a
little bad when like oh I had a bad week
sure but I think that the longer I agree
uh the longer I record the data for this
the more
the the less the average will shift like
the first week that I recorded the the
line art was very productive just so
happened to be because it was the end of
a bunch of other weeks of me drawing the
previous chapter so I was really going
going at it working quite hard getting a
lot of stuff done my pages per hour was
like half a page an hour but now it's
like
um a third of a page an hour
and I like it's gone down but like it's
more accurate and so the longer I go
it'll become more accurate and so I
won't it won't go up for like it won't
go up or down that much yeah each time
it'll settle into a yeah on average yeah
and after I've finished with Clarissa
I'll be like the average line art
for that I can pretty accurately say
this that's that's generally how fast I
can do something and then I can plan
like
if I do something on the level of
Clarissa how long is it going to take
and I have a number that I can pretty
accurately say that's a good Benchmark
that's a good Benchmark I can use to to
count how many hours it's going to take
and then I can see on this as well how
many hours I'm likely to be able to do
per day before I get too tired I want to
aim for like six hours
last last time I was doing really good
it was pretty it's very respectable yeah
last time I was trying my goal was five
hours and I did do that for like a
number of days in a row so I think
that's pretty doable honestly like six
hours of like focused work a day is like
kind of a lot like it's hard that's a
pain I mean
to do that what is it is five days like
every week that's like a lot
yeah but you got to put it in I mean
we're
we're not like competing with uh mangaka
but like they probably work yeah like 12
hours a day every day without weekends
for the amount of work that they get
they get done yeah a lot of them
probably do yeah obviously their
workflows are going to be different it's
not like
there's a set schedule but like
I would like to be able to say to myself
I am capable of doing
uh respectable amount of work per day
how much
how much would it How much would it cost
to pay a guy to do my
inks and my finishing and my lettering
how much would I have to I have no idea
you can check rates people do that sort
of thing yeah maybe on Fiverr
maybe on Fiverr
sometimes I've thought about sometimes I
thought about hiring an assistant but
like for that to be worth it I would
have to be making a lot of pages like if
I was in the midst of a big project and
I was churning out pages I might think
like I should hire an assistant stupid
to think about that when I'm like not
actively pumping out
stuff I don't know
yes easy to get
discouraged
for me at least when I was like
I don't know I see people working I just
think they're working so much harder
than me
therefore I don't deserve uh success
yeah
I'm like well
actually
you can just do whatever you can do and
that shut up I mean people that are
pumping out a lot of stuff yeah they
usually have a team behind them
supporting them in some in some way
or a lot of a lot of times they do
it's a lot of UNS there's a lot of
unseen work that goes into like
many things
yeah I mean for people who do
uh fan translations there's a lot of
steps it's not just you read it you
translate it and you put the letters in
hmm
they you gotta
you gotta erase all of the things that's
already there

font in the right space in the inside

just translated

purposeless searching husk okay you

November then if you still need a
purpose maybe then we'll talk uh I
haven't even posted any pictures of my
shaved head look even though it looks
good and fine
not because I'm embarrassed
well yes because I'm embarrassed but not
because I'm like oh it looks bad just
because I'm like I don't want anyone to
see me I don't want people to see me
posting it myself and that goes doubly
for like
yeah definitely not definitely not yeah
I look okay but if I don't look like my
best then I might as well look my worst
I Gotta Wear a tuxedo if I'm gonna
appear online I got to wear the hijab to
be to be decent uh next one is called
heavy heavy three two one go
nothing happy birthday
what is this wait hang on I said happy
birthday Ben oh it was my birthday uh
thank you
yeah happy birthday when was your
birthday it was a Sunday or no it was it
was uh yeah it was last no
it was Sunday before last it was two
Fridays ago two Fridays ago oh it's been
a while sorry I missed it
whatever to everyone else everyone else
did too so it's fine no I like
deliberately didn't say anything about
it
um
uh you know who else's birthday it was
endless war
we have almost the same birthday
analysts with the endless award
anniversary is uh April 9th
so it was a five year anniversary
oh my God yeah do you believe that
and this Force so old yeah it's cracking
it needs it needs a repair it's actually
kind of bizarre it's bizarre to me to
think back to when I may when we well
you know I didn't make it by myself but
when we made it
and think that it's been five years
since then that's that's strange that's
weird to me
it feels like it's been around for a
while but like when you put a number
like five years it feels it feels like
two maybe three years
but no
I mean there's one thing that always
tricks me up and it's the fact that 2021
was a whole year and not like a month
oh yeah yeah like 2020 and 2021 feel
like the same year yeah they do
yeah they do
yeah that whole thing that whole thing I
think contributes to the feeling of like
nothing happened
well I mean things happened but like
you know what I mean
yeah it was odd yeah it's a very odd
like alien feeling
I never been through a single pandemic
before that one yes well it won't be the
last uh next oh boy we got it we got it
we got you think you thought that one
was good just wait until you hear what
we got cooking uh next one is called
Death Note three two one go whoa whoa
whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
L dies
sorry
you should have watched it stupid
uh just so you know
um
uh L uh took an l
that's the biggest L he ever took he was
kind of an L but he did it he got the he
did get the W in the end we got the W in
the end though you think I don't think
W's count from Beyond the Grave I don't
think God accepts W's
they don't get past the kingdom of the
Gates of Heaven they don't get past
those Pearly Gates no I stab them with
little Spears there's no L's or W's in
the Bible actually
uh no the next one is called delving
into Gibbon's psyche three two one go
are you yelling like a given
psycheon right now yeah are you sexually
into like like are you a masochist or do
you just think it's funny I think it's
funny I don't actually know whether I'm
into that I just thought it was because
like I'm who's that right because like
all that they all represent like
something that I want to be I want to be
a little confident and also women
wait what was that last I missed that
last they're also women they're also are
you talking about your waifus in this
one yeah I think I was probably talking
about riska and Marceline episode two
episode two of the pro episode podcasts
the oriented given psyche I mean true
you hit your voice
you have like a deeper throatier version
of yourself
yeah I guess I don't know if that's the
right way to describe it but like it's
it's it's mess it's presenting I guess
it's one of those weird things because I
don't feel like I was ever putting on a
voice no but now that I talk like more
just naturally how I feel like it's okay
to talk
I wouldn't have talked like this back
then because it's like oh that's a
high-pitched sort of weird girly voice I
mean I but I wasn't like trying to do
like a deeper voice I don't know I I
sound different now than I did back then
as well and I don't really know why that
is I never thought I never attempted to
put on a voice uh I don't know if I just
sound different now or if I just have
changed my Cadence or something
it comes with like
I presume merely talking a lot yeah
because we are on a podcast we talk a
lot maybe more than normal people talk
maybe uh like obviously you talk with
friends but like a lot of dialogue is
through text yeah and so you might not
talk that much we talk quite a lot
especially if you're a YouTuber you talk
a hell of a lot but like I don't know
why sometimes a voice goes up in pitch
and for other people it goes down I
noticed and I think Aaron uh Hansen from
Game Grumps did say that talking so much
on Game Grumps has made his voice deepen
quite considerably that's interesting
and I'm like wow what huh I don't know
anything about that
um
strange
uh okay next that's why I sound more
British and I don't like that you you
used to
I did used to well I don't know I can't
hear my voice right now so I don't know
uh next one is an image uh let's look at
it then Saint I'm going to put my dick
into a blender Food and Drug
Administration Sarah please don't do
that thousands of Americans have
suffered blender related injuries to
their genitals as April alone nice contr
nice concern trolling Nazi blocked
that's how it goes what can I say but
true what can I say but uh tell me that
for my own safety they're telling me
that because they're trying to control
me they're trying they're trying to
Gaslight me they're trying to get some
good PR wanna we're the company that
told somebody not to put the dick in a
blender
dick in a blender
uh uh next one is another image let's go
uh yeah I paused my
procrastinators podcast
episode three whatever to be here
this better be good
do you I well My Little Pony tattoo on
their arm yes
trans belt buckle why did they have to
pause
I don't get it no it's the idea is that
it's like a cringe like gamer shirt I
paused my video game to be here this
better be good like I don't like social
interaction but they replaced it with a
person it's just a caricature this is
just a cruel caricature
fan yeah yeah why they hold in their can
of soda like that it's gonna fall out
this guy hates our audience even more
than I do you can imagine that speaking
of which the next one is called imagine
playing that three two one go
far the gambling but
I like them in the smash
is
what do you think Gibbs I cool
Ike is uh he's unlike a lot of Fire
Emblem protagonist because he's not a
noble Rich son of a lord or a king or a
prince or a princess who is destined to
wield the super sword and save the
universe he's a mercenary who rallies
his people against the the evil Kingdom
and in that way he is very based that's
pretty cool I like him it's pretty he's
a down-to-earth kind of boy hmm
neat he also does save the world but
like sure
it is you know whatever yeah yeah
there's always a magical demon or
something
it's always a demon this next one is uh
there's an image
um no I never watched the
procrastinators podcast what the [ __ ] is
that
uh it's just a big bunch of trash yeah
there's no there's no tunnel this is
just there's no tunnel he's just he's
just a guy walking away he's just
walking away from some trash why did he
get so close to the trash
I would have avoided it much further
than that
um he was he was playing with fire
he's so despondent he came he thought it
was a mountain that he could get
diamonds from but oh no it's just a
bunch of trash
[Laughter]
next one
is um
tiny another image tiny URL is this URL
shortener oh um I do not know how this
is
three anime girls and a spider coming
through a door some abstract there's a
Rubik's Cube with like an intestine
I don't think this is related to
anything no
looks
neat it's pretty cool I guess uh next
one is called porn three two one go
what do you watch more cartoon porn or
human porn
I would have to say
uh what are you watching in terms of
videos it would definitely be human yeah
human definitely human like animated
hentai stuff is sort of disgusting yeah
animated is bad cartoon I I read a manga
a lot of the porn I consume is in manga
form
so that's not but that's not animated
that's not a cartoon illustrations yeah
when it's animated it looks comic books
I never like it when it's moving
no stop moving I am the one who turns
the page not you yes yes
um next one is called this you three two
one go
ALS
[Music]
yes you were I couldn't hear what you
said through your teeth I think you
should cut cut that voicemail cut that
voicemail
what the porn one or I don't know I
don't know just any old voicemail
I guess we should cut all of them maybe
maybe I cut a voicemail last time
I don't remember
to you it was the day I cut your
voicemail to me it was Tuesday I don't
actually cut very many uh next one is
called funny voicemail idea three two
one go so
um I had an idea for a voicemail but I'm
too lazy to uh open up Sony Vegas and
make it nice nice so okay
here's what we do who left that um Chad
versus Virgin uh Chad versus virgin
Jessie Benson uh fan art if you can call
it that
okay so I was thinking um
so in that situation
Ben is Batman and the other guy who sent
in the uh the picture is uh the Joker
and uh then when Ben said that one thing
where he said uh
this guy genuinely hates me he genuinely
hates me
they cut to the Joker saying oh that's
what I do without you
you could please
um I think that would be pretty uh be
pretty sunny you know what yeah good
idea maybe
you know it's a more fun way to look at
it I think
you complete me back again you're
completely oh yeah destined to do this
forever
uh Just Dance
okay then next one is just called she
her three two one go it's currently half
11 on Friday where's the new video
shut up shut the hell up [ __ ] you
entitled fan [ __ ] yourself you're lucky
you get any podcasts at all you don't
deserve it
we were too busy eating chocolate eggs
it was Easter yeah I had to get my
blackstrap molasses
I was eating a chocolate crunchy bar egg
I ate someone and and curling up in the
sunlight and that's my Sunday I eat some
I eat some uh coffee group some coffee
chocolate the granola
snacks
the next one
is an image
let's look at it
there it is
okay I like this
uh is these these images at the bottom
are very funny I have enlisted GPS cyber
bully you but it came out too Savage if
you're fragile liberal feelings are hurt
uh feel free to skip this entire
voicemail
say
um who want you you read yours first yes
wait is this a is this a wrap
oh Ben Saint the podcaster and twitch
streamer the one known for his shitty
Blu-rays and demeanor he lounges all day
a lazy man indeed sitting around
stuffing his face with keto feed a
socialist he proudly claims Twitter
feeds his constant Flames but his work
ethics rather lame compared to Nate he's
such a shame while Ben please check gbt
knows so much I don't know while Ben
tweets Nate earns his bread he works
hard while Ben lies in bed Ben's Comics
they're always late Nate's success he
does create oh Ben tried to paint his
teeth for the glowing pain thinking it'd
make him cool but oh what a quaint idea
he okay okay idea he had for it made him
look strange and now he is seen as
simply to range
this is like a doctor's I mean I know
it's the uh is this in the style
I think that the quaint
strange deranged like that seems like a
sort of thing you would say about like a
villain in a yeah in a Dr Zeus uh so Ben
saying the man of many quirks is nothing
but a lazy all-day jerk with shitty
Blu-rays and gummy worm snacks he won't
go anywhere that's just the facts
it's over
I saw malt coming delicious delicious
oh give and take what a name to Bear an
artist who couldn't even draw a square
oh gotcha oh no yes attended attended
animation school to learn but ended up
with art that made us yearn
doesn't sound so bad yeah you're in for
a better
Society learn yearn for a better art
yeah I think that's what it's going for
your Minecraft castle is your claim to
fame but who cares it's just a virtual
assistant
your Minecraft castle it's only in a
video game give it's only in a video
game
some people have real castles yeah Nate
has a real castle what did you have Ben
uh
you call yourself a big mummy milker
obsessed with anime boobs what a
thriller that sucks yeah that's not even
this one's that's not even that's not a
bird the first one was a little
questionable this one's this one's these
Rhymes are
your presence on YouTube quite obscure
leaves us questioning what is it first
what is it fur what is it fair
your failed attempts of being a comic
artist makes us wonder if you're even an
artist
yeah this is really bad this is not
really bad
whereas they seem to elude a vocabulary
so small perhaps give and take shouldn't
talk at all I like that's pretty cool
oh no my vocabulary is so small small so
meager minuscule
so given trike strive to be better learn
from Mage a true trendsetter for artists
of craft to be honed with time not
thrown together like a nursery rhyme I
is that a self burn from from chat gbt
gibbsters
we're finished skip sisters were
finished good sisters give sisters
I'm holding my published book though
I'm on my I'm always on that ground is
better than your than your book you
can't use I don't know I can't even eat
that book
you can read it because it has words on
it actually so it's clearly it's clearly
labeled my word counts bigger than your
gummy could ever imagine uh it's called
concise concise storytelling
my gummy gets in gets out tells you all
you need to know uh uh pretty funny
pretty good pretty good pretty good
uh lamal
uh okay we got another one
it's an image
Sora katakuri you're swole enough
already go help your mother with the
grocery bags
dad can I be next on gamer Zone not this
time hilarion I already have Elon Musk
and
PewDiePie schedule
so I think
this is supposed to be Nate these are
Nation category I think yeah Nate's kids
Sora katakuri and Hillary hilarious
hilarion
Hillary on that would be a very strange
name for a child
dad can I be on your podcast this week
[ __ ] you son Elon Musk Elon Musk
actually
um yeah this is this is uh this is how
Nate this is how Nate sees it going down
I think
uh time will tell
don't I have any Soros that are in the
world
because of Kingdom I think there's got
to be some I think there's definitely
some yeah
here's a better question
well
I wonder I mean is that a thing that
people are like normally named in Japan
probably so okay I guess it's not it
wouldn't be that weird then if someone
named their kids Sora
because in Japan but in English it would
be a bit weird
so yeah only the English ones I bet I
bet there's some
category
uh okay next one is called Timmy three
two one go
oh
wedgie
wedgie Mommy
[Music]
I'm such a [ __ ] nerd
sweating
the PCP characters are getting worse and
worse we used to be a proper country
wedgie wedgie vegina
[Music]
mama
what the [ __ ] is the point of this
what's the joke
that's funny that sucks I'm sorry
give me a break give me a freaking break
give me give me a freaking break over
here uh next one is uh we got another
image oh my god let's freaking go oh God
more that's more of this more of this
these faces
procrastinators podcast oh it's more
okay give
welcome back to us this is the podcast
welcome back to the podcast folks today
Ben and I are here to announce our
latest and greatest project perfect
comic party that's right Gibb this is
going to be the best online comic
platform out there people can submit
their own comics and get published
alongside our own masterpieces Clarissa
Gunsmoke and beescapades
absolutely this is exactly how we yes we
talk I agree and Let Me Tell You Folks
my comment is the real deal it's got
action drama romance and a badass female
protagonist who's not afraid to take
down the bad guy um excuse me Gib I'm
pretty sure beescapades is the superior
comic here my characters are lovable my
plot is engaging and did I mention it
includes freaking beasts
foreign
yeah but your comic doesn't even conform
to gun control it does not
I mean how can you call it biscuit face
without including some code of gun
wielding what animal hey what
hey at least it's not a ripoff of Bard
Quest like your comic is
hey Clarissa Gunsmoke is a completely
original creation thank you very much
and it's gonna be even better with the
addition of all these amazing Comics
submitted by our fans yeah speaking of
which did you see this one it's blowing
up on Twitter I think it might just be
more popular than our own comics
wait what let me see that oh wow that's
actually really good yeah check out all
these likes and retweets people are
flocking to this artist
I'm so worried
this is just great now nobody cares
about Clarissa Gunsmoke or viscopates
anymore why would he why did you even
start the stupid project I don't know
give
I had to sell my freaking Oculus Rift to
pay rent this month
and I'm making six anime daki micro
reviews every week it's just to make
ends meet well at least it's helped me
lose some weight starvation has its
Silver Linings I guess
Wow way to put a positive spin on things
but seriously
do we do you think we made a mistake
with perfect comic party I don't know I
mean it was a good idea at the time but
maybe we weren't ready for the
competition
I'm uh
true but let's not give up yet maybe we
can come back even stronger with our
next project and who knows we might even
discover the next big comic artist ah
resolve
it's your [ __ ] hit yeah
these are uh these are very flattering
these are very nice
I'm scroll I just scrolled back up at
their faces why could you call it how
can you call it Beast capades without
some sort of gun-wielding animal
yeah Ben it doesn't even conform to kind
of gun control my uh I got a good
argument there yeah you you you you got
me a little bit uh okay next one is oh
that was the one we just looked at oh we
got a freaking vocaroo
oh I know what this is
wait
these are from cheesy aren't they
uh I don't know
because it's because it's because
they're called uh Steve no and Enderman
no because you know like the block
the mecca black oh well it might not be
cheesy might be whoever's in the chat so
oh lamal okay uh three two one go
Steve Steve it's
it's in craft Steve
stevecraft Steve himself what are you
doing man what are you doing with that
big big boy wig pickaxe huh a large hit
sizable pickaxe for money Society what
are you doing man you can't mind that
that's the sacred block the Muhammad
Rock don't even think about it don't let
touch the Muslim tetrahedral don't don't
don't mind it do not mind the Muslim
cuboid with your pickaxe diamond
okay okay

more called Enderman no
so let's go
uh all right three two one go the

Muslim Mania Minecraft Dania don't let
him grasp it do not let him grass the
cupid and grasp do not let him cry

he's grasping I'm gonna grasp boys
[Music]
I will have a great time when when that
stupid slime and Punishment Kickstarter
gets going I will have a great time
telling people to please oh yeah
uh and it works because pluge is like
sploosh like slime you can imagine
because that's dropping stuff into a
slime it encourages people to save up a
big you know a big [ __ ] load of lots of
money and then just squirt it all out
all over me uh on my waiting face oh
mess me up mess me up uh I've lost uh
mess me up messed me up with all that
cash money he left me up with a big
donut it's a big liquid stream of
currency
um on patreon.com the procrastinators

concluded
um I was gonna talk about
uh having finished uttana and the owl
house is finished but since you haven't
seen those you can save that for another
time yeah I have not seen either of
those uh at all my recommendation
you should watch rrr it's really good
it's a really good film
um
it's good it's a good movie it's the
best movie I've seen in a while
it was better than
better than northmen better than ever uh
everything everything everywhere
in my opinion
uh
uh those are like the only two movies I
saw last year
I think it's even better
than Locke the movie where a guy is
sitting in his car on his phone for two
hours
it might even be better than that
crazy I know
okay thanks Phyllis okay we'll see you
next week go to amazon.com Clarissa
Gunsmoke
