Honestly, a comically oversized bathtub drain actually sounds like it could be useful against a water-based foe like Splashmaster.

I'm not exactly sure how, but still.

e: oh wait no it's the king's power isn't it.

Maybe he expected magic to be rational and sensical? Hence him wanting to go there to get away from Weird Dad and Family.

Maybe Cucumber and the Nightmare Knight will bond or at least empathize a bit over how they wish they could be in a more serious world.

This one should be better.

I don't have PMs so I'll just say that this (credit to Ryaomon) with the text "Diggle Hell is a Real (Swingin') Place" would be appreciated.

What miraculous luck that they filled it with 300 copies of the same spell at the factory! Imagine the odds!

Well, we know Nautilus got her Liquus summon from it, so there had to be other spells once upon a time. (It is possible that the bathtub drain one is the only spell remaining, though.)

Solution: order a bunch of pizzas, save them for later. AMAZING.

I wonder of the pizzas just appear, or if a delivery guy just appears and expects to actually be paid. This is important to my plan.

I like the extra information about the different lands of Dreamside and how you can tell who comes from where by the shape of their ears. It really makes me excited to see where this comic is gonna take us since there are some very interesting locales to be explored.

Such as the moon kingdom - where Cosmo comes from.

Comically oversized bathtub drain on the bottom of the cage; the prisoners can escape through the shipwreck on which they're placed. If Splashmaster's still sleeping, that's a sneaky way to rescue everybody.

Perfect! A sneaky way for Cucumber to save his loud, stab-happy, hellbent-on-octorevenge sist--oh.
