Comic 356 - Crackle and Rumble
Bakery Notes:
I really tried to stream this one,
but Picarto's servers failed and I
couldn't stream no matter what I tried.
Also, a little heads up, the site might
regress to one update a week due to closure
to the animation I'm doing for my studies
approaching it's conclusion and therefore
extra time editing it.
Any suggestions on what to do to fill
in until the end of December?
So, answer me this, Who is your favorite
character of the series and why?
My favorite character of the series would have to be Pervy/Hos, cause he is just hilarious with what he does sometimes and how he tries to do it.
But if it weren't for Pervy, i would go for the little bug that stung Pervy and the one dream soldier, that devious little bugger just has something special about him that i like.
Also, sorry for not commenting for so long :c i will try to fix that bad behaviour of mine.
"Desperate Hug Attack! Save me from forcing the use of my powers to break all of your bones in the next scene!"
Baker, the answer to your "too-busy" situation should always be the same event every time. Sponsor another art contest from your legions of horrible Cookie fan artists. God knows that they try their best.
some intense battle going on there...I wonder if he asked for a hug first and then she said no...and then the battle started XD
*tackle hugs next comment*
Now, if only Pucho can do more mage / sage stuff other than breaking stuff. XD hahaha ...
Doesn't Pituka's design look like that of a skunk along with that weird paw thing that was black in the sunlight?
As filler suggestions, I would like to see more FFC mashups with other things. I loved the kill la kill picture and the Five Nights at Freddy's picture. An idea that comes to mind is Nelly as Iron Man or Pucho as the Hulk. Or maybe Hos hanging out with the members of the "Blue Man Group" and playing drums with them. Seeing the members dressed up in different outfits would be pretty nice, maybe Pucho as Robin Hood and Pituka as Maid Marian. Or anything really.
My favorite character has changed a lot throughout the series. At first it was Pucho (I think everyone's is at first) then it was Pervy. I will always be a Pervy fan, but now i think my favorite is actually Ulrick. He's funny in his own way, and his shy nature is something that i can personally relate to. That, and the fact that he is a doctor/scientist who has decent looks puts him first on my book.
Also Baker, if you would be willing to enlighten me, I have some questions about the infrastructure of Paws Den. For example, in a picture you mentioned that there is an "Energy District." Does that mean that there are other districts? And if so, how many and what are their names? How does Paws Den deal with an exponentially growing population? Does it have workers constantly mining to expand the underground city? What about this so called "Surface CIA," is it composed of Hycans or Dream Soldiers? How is the surface CIA different from Human resources? Is all of the city's food imported from the surface or are there underground farms with sunlamps. What about water? Do underground rivers provide the city with clean freshwater, or is that imported from the surface also? I'm assuming that most of the sewage water is recycled, but no system is 100% efficient. Which brings me to my next question, where is trash and waste disposed of? Is there some bottomless pit where all of the city's unwanted stuff is thrown into? Or is it sent back up to the surface via supply tubes? Additionally, is all of Paws Den a city, Or are there designated suburban and rural areas as well? How many lycans live inside Paws Den? 500,000? 1 million? 10 million? You mentioned that a citizen is required to work a job in order to acquire a home, does this mean that there are rows and rows of empty homes waiting for the unemployed lycans to find work? If so, who is in charge of building and maintaining these homes? A businessman or the government? What precautions does the city have in case of emergencies? For example, what would they do if the surface stopped sending them supplies and technology and food? Does Paws Den have its own stores of food just in case? Or are they utterly at the mercy of the Hycan agents?
Sorry for the barrage of questions, but they is just some of the things that have been bouncing around in my head for a while now, and I decided it would be better just to ask you than to try and figure it out myself. After all, it is your world.
Thank you for taking the time to read this comment, I know it was a long one and your time is valuable. Keep the wonderful work Baker! I'll be waiting for the next strip/filler with enthusiasm. Your fan forever- Begi
Dear god man, Baker will never be able to get to all of that stuff! Let him FOCUS on the story at hand, or we will be seeing the end of the camping trip arc in 2045. He's already taking breaks as is. Start writing a fan-fiction novel or something. Or maybe we should ghost-write (ghost-draw?) comics involving other characters for him?
It looks like we're already exploring some of your questions with the Heating Plant episodes involving Coop and the Hyena twins. Sir Pen Tyne is already planning a takeover of all the industry in Paws Den without knowing WHY the plants are run they way they are run. Things never turned out well for the Columbia and Rapture utopias in the Bioshock metaverse; highly doubt that Paws Den is going to turn out any differently. Even worse: a utopia run by an absolute MONARCHY? A terrible model that will only work as an idea on paper.
GO TEAM PERVY!
In addition to this, you can't help but feel sorry for Pucho. Pucho has had his memory wiped, and he knew he was about to lose his memory. He's cursed (even though the powers he gains from this are pretty cool).
Pucho is the best. He's too lovable to not be my favorite character.
