About time I finished this. Did anyone ask for this? No, but I did it anyway. A whole document on Klubba. I was originally going to make this blog post but +4k words on an entry is mental. God I love yapping. ( #dkc2 )

I've been waiting a long time for this moment.
This is a full documentary on King K. Rool, his character, his boss fights, and his fall from grace along with the DK series. But more importantly, it is the story of how DK's fanbase rallied to make a series in limbo shine again under one jolly roger.

Let's talk about books and the public trust.

Something that is easy to forget, in these days of barcode-scanning / auto-adjust pricing on third-party platforms for pennies plus shipping:
Booksellers are not merely people who sell some popular books in a competitive market.

I'm very critical of my art after I've shared it.
I think a lot of artists have a desire to 'George Lucas' their own work.
"I should have done this part better. I don't like the way I made that."
Don't dwell on these thoughts! Just used what you've learned to make your next pieces even better.

![Portrait of "Mr. X" (real name unknown) dated 1859. Mr. X has his plumed bicorne, red sash, medals and eppaulette on. His hooked hand is tucked in his jacket as a sign of restraint, although whether he did or did not have that in actuality is unknown.
He has a sword on his side that has the [readable] engraved words "MDCCCILX - VIVAT KROKODILI".
His scales are smooth, green and clean, although that's rather a romanticised depiction of him. In reality he would've lots and lots of blemishes on his face (as present in his actual, ghost design).
