Comic 348 - A splitting situation
Bakery Notes:
I aplogize for the tardiness...
there are two things to blame,
me artistic need to draw something
fan artyish and my growing cold :(
Damn, started as a dry trhough, now it's
a full blown pain in my bum!
Either way, I'm resting to cure it now.
So, answer me this, Who of the characters
you think needs more spotlight?
As for a character who needs a spotlight?...hrrrmmm....That girl pucho worked with, was she a cameo, or a future important character, or what?
Also Ryuu is acting exactly how I handle stress, acts cool with some humor but not really on the inside. Except that it either goes away or the humor. :3
The original tissue sample was taken when Dr. Ulrick did the lycan tests on Pucho way back in 121:

We don't really know what cell types were obtained but there's a picture of the Lycan virus in panel 8 (btw, you really need an electron microscrope to visualize most viruses, they're in the nanometer range at best (unless Lycan viruses are gigantic honking micrometer things as large as bacteria in your universe) just an fyi). Maybe simply a blood sample taken from Pucho? Tissue biopsies usually are preserved (fixed) in formaldehyde (which kills the sample) for analysis via cryostat and paraffin sectioning, and live tissue cultures generally aren't performed on patient tissues (but what do I know about the Paw's Den universe?)
Then, in comic 425 we see Ulrick freaking out over a sample in his microscope:

It would be surprising for a doctor to leave a sample out on a microscope slide like that, and prepared microscope slides contain some background dye (Giemsa or Wright's stain for blood, Hematoxylin and Eosin stain for tissue sections) which generally would kill the sample if it wasn't killed already. So.. I'm assuming the original sample was a blood sample? But probably not:

Dr. Ulrick doesn't bring a tube to Tammy's dungeon, he brings a plastic dish that's used in preserving tissue samples (again, there's usually formaldehyde added to those screw-top plastic dishes, the screw-top is so the formaldehyde (toxic!) doesn't leak all over the place), but I'm assuming this sample has to be alive in order to explode the place... and escape???

So we got some kinda Ultimate Spiderman Issue 100 Clone Saga Ultimate Carnage Symbiote Green Goo Pucho Energy Monster Arc going on here? Outstanding. I entirely approve. Knew I was waiting for like literally 400 updates for something cool.
Enjoy your free synopsis, Baker! You can tell I really really really don't want to be working on my grant right now (much like YOU would rather do 50,000 guest art images than redraw/update your main comic character's website for the 5 millionth time), so here's a synopsis explaining everything for the new readers. If they cared to read the entire diatribe in the first place. Get better soon!
TL&DR: Wishing Baker well while pointing out inconsistencies in his scientific method over time in the alternate universe Lycan Paw's Den comic covering the explosive tissue sample's debut. Go back and read the whole thing, you morons; it's at most like 6-7 paragraphs! Jeez, do you need everything explained to you?
As for the question I think human need a little more attention we still don't even know anything about him not even his name
