I was digging through some things in the attic and I found some images from the OG DD thread relevant to where we are in the comic:

Something about the way Snout looked in the last panel got me thinking...



EDIT:

Hold the phone. If Snout's intended to be permanently deaf, why does he even have ears in the first place? Couldn't no ears, thus, no hearing be part of his "mongrel"-ness?

Seriously jfc

I don't consider myself an artist, but I do sketch anatomy sometimes as a hobby, and making sure you're figure is conforming to the basic laws of physics and the limitations of what your body can do is beginner level "how to draw for dummies" poo poo lol

It's so obvious the Mookster doesn't practice an idea for a comic strip, make a rough sketch or any of those "boring" processes. He just picks up a pen a craps his work out in a half hour with virtually no thought process

As a non-artist, I think it's completely easy to understand: Eh, looks good enough. Back to tracing porn.

If it was legit traced from porn, I imagine we would know it because it would have been one of the first page GIS results for like 'blowjob' or something.

as much as I hate to defend Mookie, isn't the Hair supposed to be on the inside of his arm too? like that's part of the dumb mogrelfolk thing isn't it?

what horror the gas

It's not the hair so much as the liines indicating that his forearm is behind his bicep while he has his hand on his head, which doesn't look right and is physically painful (for me at least) to imitate.

Also, while it doesn't quite match, this is the closest non-porn GIS ("woman vomiting") I could find that resembles what mookie traced. (It could very well be porn but I'm not going to dig into that.)

yeah I think that's more bis dumb hair gimmick getting in the way of the actual curve, so it is a pretty bad art fail but I don't think Mookie's Anatomy is so bad he's drawing arms backwards and not noticing

Of course I could definitely be wrong :shrug:

Look farther up the arm, past the hair. That forearm is definitely behind the upper arm.

He is absolutely drawing the arm wrong.

Ok, let me get this straight. The people who enabled him to go on this quest in the first place, who feed him, clothed him, and transport him, are holding him back. We know all of this because a character Snout just met told him so with no justification. I think that's what you call "conflict" in a story, right?

Also lol that the only reason she puked on his diary was to write words to him, what stupid magic

The soft boi does nothing important to the plot, gets coddled whenever he has a tantrum, and gets praise because he's too incompetent but is "trying". And the others are holding him back?


Anyways Snout is going to show that the power of friendship will conquer all, since Mookie is a hack and we know all the listed characters are "good"

Well you see he accomplishes so much more on his own. Here, I'll list what he's done without any help

1. Built a house
2.

Wait let me also list what he's done WITH help

1. Read some books
2. Cured corpsemom's abusive anger forever by being real nice
3. Finally had sex instead of just naked cuddling
4.

Yeah that's what I suspect now. Like nature abhorring vacuum, Mookie cannot abide a conflict. My prediction is in single digit pages she'll turn out to be a bad guy.

Oh! Also! Unless she's reading his mind or something, this is YET ANOTHER character that already knows about Deegan's legacy. Why does it need to be found again?

Why does he need to find Luna? Or Dominic? If everyone has written books about him and they know what he did, what the hell is he looking for?

This is the premise of the whole comic and its not even clear what the gently caress he needs or is trying to do.

Again a very likpatous story
I was going to say this is some sort of test of character or whatever and Snout has to boldly proclaim "NO THEY ARE MY FRIENDS" and then she says "You pass the test and are ready to find the Legacy" but yeah I think everyone else is right, she's secretly a villain and is lying to them to stop their noble quests.
