Oh I love it, cats are great but I do miss a good silly dog sometimes

Oh my goodness Maggie this is the cutest dog! Tell me these aren't the only pictures of her in predicaments?

Former South Floridian here, same! Even in the late winter when its disgusting and miserable, I can't truly hate the look of snowfall. Too beautiful

Watching the first John Wick felt like opening a storybook of blood and gunpowder. Absolutely stellar worldbuilding in that film, just a ton of fun worldbuilding techniques

Ahh, no wonder these events lead to everyone getting sick!

I wonder if certain Mind Flayers grow incredibly strong beaks to crack such a succulent nut...

Are biological treasures in there too? Or in potions? Stuff like hides and bones and all that

What about natural and wondrous materials? I’m sure that stuff has come up already, but a place for like, Adamantite and Mithral? As well as other “treasured” resources like oil, water, spices, kinds of lumber, Ore, yadda yadda

Okay but what if a Belt of the Serpent that acted like a Belt of Beasts... except the Snake is the only one who can store and release beasts. Just, hours of trying to convince your clothing how to play Pokemon. That would be hilarious

Would it be as popular? No.

And it would ruin a bit of the silly toybox appeal. I like dressing up as a ninja turtle or a power ranger to shoot guns at anime guys and uncanny depictions of real people.

I absolutely love how the glyphs seem to connect through the speech bubble, like the spoken word is becoming reality. So striking, so rad!

We should also pepper in some questions like “In the amazing Roland Emeric film, “Day After Tomorrow”, we see a New York City, and in it, a library full of ice and wolves.”

“How would you approach this situation as Mayor?”

“Follow-up Question, how fucking great is Dennis Quaid? Right?”

This reminds me of the excellent choose your own adventure issue of Rogue Sun, or the three storylines at once issue of Radiant Black. Ya’ll are always doing the coolest high concept comic ideas!

God I love the purple on that lil guy. I think Antonio having those colors on his suit would be better than the Blue Gold style
