So Noisemaster has another side to him... but it's one he keeps hidden even from his boss.

I wouldn't be surprised if Double Night knows all about Noisemaster's darker side (as it were) already. The sudden lack of all that bright colour is a damned nice touch and is a good visual representation that he's not just messing around now at least. Hopefully he's also going to be competent now but just how competent remains to be seen.

At least he managed to catch the princess first before the kingdom figured out he was in the area. Then again, Splashmaster's not smart and just did whatever made sense at the time.

I'm thinking maybe that some of the more intelligent Disaster Masters are sick as hell of constantly having to fight this legendary hero or whatever. Splashmaster's an idiot, but in that last panel Noisemaster just seems...tired.

This is a good page, it shows there's a lot more to Noisemaster then just his "gimmick"

Thinking about it, it's possible that his entire persona is just a way of dealing with this constant cycle.

I know the expression in Panel 4 is supposed to be a menacing angry eye, but all I can see when I look at it is a :buddy:-style smiley face. Draw a couple cartoon eyes above it and you basically have Jack Frost from Persona. I think it's the zigzaggy popped-collar thing.

Cucumber Quest is one of the few webcomics I still bother following, and decided to make some fanmusic for it. Hope you guys like it!

The idea is making a song for each Princess of Dreamside as they’re introduced, and then stringing them together into a medley. Here’s Nautilus, and at the end you can here a bit of Princess Piano’s eventual theme. Parfait will probably be at the end, because something so offensively French will have to have sufficient buildup.

I tried to make it cheery and happy, since it's Nautilus, but I tried to make it at least a little regal and professional too. I mean, she is a princess.

It'll probably be forever until we learn all of the princesses, but WHATEVER MAN.

I don't see that much of a resemblance between them. If we ever do see an alter ego for Saturday she'll probably be pretty obvious since domino masks just don't do a great job of hiding your identity.

Of course initially the only person who picks up on it will be Cucumber, while everyone else follows narrative tropes and is completely shocked when the truth finally comes out.

Going from the beautifully garish Noisemaster pages to grayscale is the saddest thing.

Almond slivers and bits of bacon would probably compete with each other as a topping instead of complementing one another. An almond oil based dressing could work though.
