Digamma-F-Wau posted:ya know I've never read the original comic All you need to know about it is that the main character was an oracle, which meant he'd sometimes have visions that teased the next Bad Thing he'd have to prevent. His girlfriend was a human with orc tusks that destroyed her self esteem most of her life. All of the problems were ultimately solved with DBZ-style anime fights, but but badly drawn and with the least engaging visual structure possible. There was also the time Mookie decided that he was going to contrive a scenario where a rape could be heroric and absolve the rapist of all wrongdoing. This is the level of quality to expect in this comic.

The image registry on his website was public for a long time. Like Mors said, he'd keep all sorts of weird stuff like his "Pretty Dead Girl" pinup photos there, and a few test pages for another comic idea about a necromancer with a death fetish and his hot demon girl minion. It was eventually set to private but it was also around the time his server hosting changed, so most likely the new host just defaulted to a private setting and Mookie remained unaware. I haven't checked in a few years (and I'm not going to because blehh) but most of the creepy stuff was also posted to his DeviantArt, so it's not like it was a private shame for him anyway.

Toriyama likes drawing monsters. He also completely forgot Launch existed for a while. As far as Mookie goes, you can tell he was plotting things out for a while in DD. He just got lazy and justifies it as being more fun for himself this way.

Joe Slowboat posted:As someone who knows nothing about this comic but has been enjoying this thread: Why is he wearing a striped scarf in one panel but none of the others? Like other people said, it was an edit. The original dwarf dick-punch scene was from when Dominic and Luna when on a cruise around the world for some Other fun facts: Dominic himself is based on a D&D character Mookie played. Two other characters, the priestess woman and her werewolf boyfriend, were also D&D characters his friends played. Another character, Nimmel, was... either an MMO character or a character of Mookie's in another RPG, I forget which now.

Who What Now posted:You are weirdly mad about this You picked a really mild post to accuse me of being mad about hours after, like the one right above that is way spicer. But tell me why it's not weird to buy your way into someone's Patreon just to see if there's any funny material to leak to a mock thread? Like sure, the classic CAD threads would've probably stooped to that but they were also resorting to cheering on WebDog's weird stalking efforts in a desperate bid for laffy material as CAD shifted into banality. That's what got them banned in BSS and a big part of why every other mock thread was banned in BSS while the Deegan thread was allowed to peacefully die after the comic reached its natural end. E- Rotten Red Rod posted:Yeah, like, sorry I posted about something you already posted, and also bought Mookie a coffee? I guess? I dunno why it offends you so much.

Rotten Red Rod posted:These things are absolutely nothing alike. Paying to access Patreon content tiers is in no way stalking. I didn't say it was. I said it was the kind of thing the CAD threads would stoop to at their lowest, most desperate point when they were scraping the bottom of the barrel for more material to post. Usually they just resorted to stalking because Patreon wasn't a thing yet.

PMush Perfect posted:"I didn't say I was accusing you of falling down the slippery slope. Here's what was at the bottom of the slippery slope last time." I know 'lol slippery slope' is a serious political own, but this turned into a debate about whether or not I said it was stalking and I said it wasn't. It's a bid for fresh material to point and laugh at rather than letting it come out naturally, and maybe if the comic on its own isn't delivering that's a sign to sit around and wait for a while and boot up Skyrim for the 100000th time, or that the mock thread itself was a bit premature if we're burning through the publicly accessible laughs so fast. And the only counter I've seen so far to "Why is this not weird?" is that it was only kinda weird because it was just enough to buy a nice coffee at Starbucks. But since we're still rolling with the "I never" I never said it wasn't a wooo~slippery slope~wooo to stalking him. I do think it is, actually, and I'd like to head that off at the pass. Because something about mock threads causes the irresistible urge for people to secure their heads to their asses and cross the line into deeply personal grudges against creators that are generally, not much more than mediocre idiots, and that drains a lot of the fun out of laughing at badly-drawn comics on the internet. Rotten Red Rod posted:Ok, well, if someone takes it further then we'll have a problem, but I'm not. I don't think paying Mookie $3 to look at his bad art is (much) weirder than participating in a mock thread pulling apart every single panel he draws, which is already admittedly pretty weird. I do also think nitpicking the art in a DD comic panel-by-panel is pretty dull unless it's a particularly bad page, but I'm not going to scream from the mountaintops at people picking fruits off the ground if they're bored and trying to pass the time.

Rotten Red Rod posted:I don't even have a grudge against Mookie - in fact, I didn't say anything, but I thought the comments a few people made about being bewildered he had a son were pretty crass. My sole focus is on the art he creates and how much joy it gives me to mock it. The comments about Mookie's son were lovely, too, and prior comments were people were laughing and psychoanalyzing descriptions of Mookie's wedding photos, yeah.

PMush Perfect posted:I admit to having never looked at what Mookie looked like, and, honestly, I thought he'd look more like Dominic. There was some filler art he did a long time ago during DD's run that got laugh at a lot. It was a drawing he did of how moved he was when he got a standing ovation for a panel he did on writing realistic heroes and villains at a con, and yeah he drew himself like Dominic and probably did look more like him then. But getting into metal Does Things to you (spiritually).

I was wondering about what would happen when he inevitably would draw some sex on this comic because he doesn't have the skill to make it look sexy and couldn't stop it from looking like two lovecraftian creatures humping. Was he going to fade to black after a few full-body nude shots? Was he going to make it a collage of weird closeup sex faces to avoid having to do body shots? Some highly symbolic images that make no sense because he can't draw objects? At least the teaser images give me hope that it will be funny.

You know, I'm down for a tree being full of hate and contemplating what exactly that would mean for a tree. I could totally see how a hateful tree would get so wound up in stabbing everything that it stabs itself, too. Where it falls flat is with it flipping the bird, which was a punchline that was apparently so good Mookie had to do it twice. That's a level of human awareness that really doesn't work with the physical embodiment of hate in a tree form. Even the "shoot the sign asking to be friends" thing could work as a punchline if it cut back to an expressionless tree, too. Because what more does a Hate Tree need to say? That was the whole baseline of Tess's classic Dominic Treegan edits, after all.

Rotten Red Rod posted:Lol, and I was just guessing. Wow, sad how closely he copied the concept. The whole premise of Dominic Deegan is based on an old D&D character of his, with several supporting cast members being other players' D&D characters. It's safe to assume that's where he pulls most of his fantasy concepts from.

PetraCore posted:Why couldn't an orc have done so if it was so simple? The premise was something like: rear end in a top hat Knight's rear end in a top hat Knight Dad (who was dubbed the Dance Commander by a prior thread for his facial hair and a panel where it looked like he was pelvic thrusting while donning a necklace of orc tusks) did a mass genocide on the orcs. One orc chieftan was all like "Curse you!" to him and that turned out to be a real curse that caused human babies to be born with tuskmouth. Luna was all special because she came to accept her tuskmouth in spite of it being the source of lifelong abuse instead of having them removed or managing to successfully kill herself or whatever. This meant she was special and could help fix the genocide and death magic poison the Dance Commander inflicted on orcland.

Mors Rattus posted:It should be noted that all of this spiraled out from Mookie being mad that people liked the rear end in a top hat knight dude because he was a jock. What was great about that is Siegfried was popular because he had an "arc" with "character growth" and things like "moving past irrational bigotry" but then Mookie retconned it so that Jayden cheated on her werewolf boyfriend and condemned Siggy to hell. And then he layered on extra badness by revealing that as a child/teenager Siggy helped perpetuate war crimes against the orcs to impress his father. So you know, hope you enjoy being damned forever because of crimes you conducted as a child for your lovely monster of a parent. Rotten Red Rod posted:How did Mookie even engage with his, uh, fans enough to know their reaction to that character? Were there comments/a forum on his site back then? He used to read/post on the Keenspot forums for the comic when it was hosted there. That place turned to mockery not long after the Storm of Souls arc, iirc. Mookie kind of withdrew from any fan engagement like that after a while. There's a pretty consistent pattern of the sincere discussion places turning to derision after a while that's kind of strange but also a bit of an interesting phenomenon for the comic.

Oh I just remembered, during the Very Special Episode about how alterists aren't all bad Luna found out that even though her womb would bear no fruit, the eggs in her ovaries were extra magic and if they were implanted in someone else they'd take on the other person's DNA or something, and it'd be great for other infertile couples or let a surrogate carry a baby for her. E- Also, they found out Dominic was infertile too so good work undermining any special sacrifice Luna had to bear for revitalizing the expansive plains of a nation Nuns with Guns fucked around with this message at 15:22 on Dec 6, 2019 |

I was going to make a comment before this page about how it'd be funny if the Ink Witch popped out of the crashed ship, but I was like "Nahhh, what would be the point of everything in between her kidnapping and meeting back up with Snout then?" And now this happened and seriously, what was the point of everything between when she was kidnapped and when they met back up then? Snout is further from places he's familiar with, but the ship could've blown up his house and prompted Snout and the Ink Witch to go off in pursuit of it and that would've skipped the whole of... at least November and December's comics.

You’ve got dicks and boobs and the writing is beyond terrible/nonexistent and the art is still dominated c deegan levl after all these years Besides Mookie himself, honestly he probably has more people who hate-read it than any genuine fans at this point. Dominic Deegan had a small window of time where it was relevant and popular to get promoted by other big webcomics like VG Cats or Ctrl+Alt+Del and get an easter egg namedrop in Girl Genius. Nobody cares or remembers much about it now. Still, Mookie's in that rare and precious position now where he can do whatever he wants and be happy, so this is what he does with his time.

How Wonderful! posted:No matter what happened in that thread in the past, there's no need at all to make fun of a rape survivor now. Maybe the posts were bad, maybe they weren't, but this conversation is done and whoever bought Android Blues that avatar should feel ashamed of themselves. Trauma is really complicated, recovery is really complicated, and sometimes it involves being a difficult person. The mature and kind thing to do would be to let it lie and certainly not to continue prodding the survivor about it. So please be mature and kind about this and move on to talking about something else. It'd be nice if people could stop using the just-offscreen rape panel as a loss.jpg substitute or referring to it with silly demeaning terms like "jazzhands" too tbh.

Twelve by Pies posted:Now that I think about it, didn't Dominic Deegan sort of do the same thing CAD did? I know CAD just kind of ended out of loving nowhere with no indication it was ending, and I feel like Mookie was talking about all his plans for the future of the comic and then it was the final battle and everything wrapped up. Mookie seems to plan things day-by-day and I'd be surprised if he knew where the plot was going in anything but the broadest end terms. He's written like that at least since after the Stonewater arc, if not after the Storm of Souls. That said, there were a couple of plot hooks he teased that never came out, but he said he decided to drop them a long while before the end of the comic started. You could tell Mookie was ready to try something else and was prepping for Star Power, but DD was in a state where it could really end whenever Mookie wanted. Because it'd always end in a stiff DBZ fight like the prior dozen boss fights had. The "real" DD people had been attached to ended a long time ago by that point and closing things out was just a matter of formality.
