God, every single piece of anything in Cucumber Quest looks deserving of being hung in the museum of fine art. Even those avatars separated from their pages look like masterpieces. How does Gigi get this all done so easily when it's all so astounding.

Yeah, if you've ever seen any of her art streams, she really draws relatively quickly! It is pretty amazing.

A bonus mini-book, CUKE OR DIE III: KNOCTURNAL KNIGHTMARES

Cuke or Die III is actually just Cucumber and friends acting out a bad homemade action movie a la Dangeresque.

We can't see Almond's face, but she's probably giddy at the notion of someone calling her heroic.

That sounds awesome. I kind of wonder how she plans on sustaining that sort of output though :ohdear:

She already keeps around a ~17 page buffer, I think? So I think she can do it! She is good at this stuff.

I love the question marks on his tallies, like he forgot how to count past 5 or maybe there were some cases where he just wasn't 100% sure he REALLY smashed those bunny boats

The ultimate plot twist is that Cabbage never really worked for the Caketown Royal Family in the first place, he's just sorta nuts

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.

edit: but I don't recall the envelope having any prints and I'm sure I was supposed to get some.. uh-oh.

Drop her an email, I'm sure she'll sort things out if you didn't get your prints! Unless "empty envelope with a cute star pattern on it" was a reward tier I missed.

That bathtub drain could NEVER be useful. They'll get the brilliant idea to use it and find out that it is too big to fit anywhere.

So I actually managed to miss the kickstarter, is she still going to sell books online or am I just SOL?

Once all the Kickstarter books go out they'll be available for purchase.

Also yeah, the books are rad. I'm so happy about Brisket Sweats.

Peridot is from the Crystal Kingdom, which is where Punisher Pumice lives, so there's that. (I doubt I needed to point that out to anyone, what with their names)

I dunno, I've always gotten the vibe that it was going to just be Cucumber, Almond, Carrot and Nautilus, but it's way too soon to pick up on any patterns.

Nautilus is my fav, though, so I'm glad she's sticking around for sure.

There's no way Cosmo won't show up every chapter with some sort of stupid new form of transportation to ruin, but then in the last chapter come in out of nowhere with a giant ridiculous mech that finally actually works this time and saves everybody.

If you don't feel like setting up with Amazon, you can always just get the books directly from her shop when they print in November or so using Paypal, if it goes like last time.

Legato is going to turn out to be a gross anime nerd and he's trying to make Nautilus his waifu. Is that what this is.

:sparkles: If he's not really Legato, then I wonder if he's actually ugly or plain looking under the illusion/transformation/whatever.

They remove the illusion and the imposter looks exactly like Legato except he has a tiny pimple he's really ashamed of.

I think it's just one lense. It fell out of his right eye, which was the one that kept doing the dramatic anime fire, too.

And Gigi mentioned on twitter about wanting to get to "that scene" so is it coming sooner rather than later?

Don't read into her being excited for a scene as anything but her being perpetually excited by what she does.

This thread's theories are pretty weird. Cucumber's not going to turn into a brooding angst nerd and nobody needs to own Almond because she already does a pretty good job of owning herself. A pretty big theme of the comic so far is optimism in the face of defeat, and I don't think it's going to stray from that. :shobon:

There is no such thing as a personal tweet; everything on Twitter is presented to the whole entire population of the world simultaneously.

yeah, it's presented to everyone publicly...on Twitter, not here

It's one thing when they're tweets related to the comic but if you want to see her tweets so bad, go follow her there or something. There's a pretty rich layer of irony in posting a screencap from her Twitter and saying "man, these people can be such creeps sometimes!"

I just remembered that Caboodle hasn't met Peridot before, and the only time Nautilus met her was when she didn't have her glasses on, so maybe they won't even know she's the enemy. This should be interesting!

They probably don't know her at all now that Rosemaster's thrown her in the slammer, much like how the main cast has completely forgotten Nautilus.
