When all else fails you call me and if you gotta call me then you're screwed and I'm screwed.
I am a male black mental disorder-addled 20-something artist, writer, singer, dancer-, oh screw it, if it's an artistic endeavour of any sort odds are I'm pretty okay at it and i enjoy it.
It’ll release as a 5 night special event on January 6th, 2020 on Cartoon Network! Mark your schedules!

So the main question I’m seeing pop up is “how did this season get made so fast??”
Answer: It didn’t! We don’t start making a new season after we’ve finished and aired the previous one. Cartoons often end up working on multiple seasons at a time.
CN gave us a 20 episode pick up, but we had only planned the first 10. So when the option came up to do 10 more episodes, that’s when we decided we could carry the show on in an anthology format, allowing us to delve deeper into different topics we’d only touched on.
What this means is that while we were in production on the first 10 episodes, we were writing the next 10. When we started getting animation back from Sunmin on the second episode, it was around then that we were starting to storyboard the first episode of the second season.
By the time we were editing the 10th episode, we were boarding the 7th or 8th episode for season 2 and doing BG’s and designs for probably the second or third episode of season 2. By the time we were finished with post on season 1, we had already gotten back multiple workprints of season 2. Post then took a few more months, and now here we are.
Although it feels sequential to the audience, we actually sometimes have to work out of order on the episodes because they can each be such different amounts of work. So I started doing animation and post on the last couple of episodes of season 2 first, then moved backward.
It’s all about managing the workload, which our crew does exceptionally well. This is a very difficult show to work on because of the constant changing nature of the show. It’s nice creatively, but it can be a very heavy workload.
So this means that every episode is usually being worked on by different departments at different times. At peak capacity, we can have about 12 different episodes being worked on at once in the US, with maybe another 4 being worked on at Sunmin.
So that’s why it seems like it was made “so fast”, it’s because all the audience sees is the airing schedule, not the production schedule. Our crew is very talented and experienced and none of this would be possible without their dedication and hard work.

in celebration of the new movie coming out, we added hellboy to brawlhalla! i got to make all this art for both the new game mode and regular map that came with it. :)
the “reciprocal equation” pun comes to you courtesy of my friend and former roommate, @ngoziu, who used it in a class assignment circa 2014. if you’re not already reading her webcomic,“check, please!”, you should do yourself a favor :)
Like this comic? Leaf’s Gaster Bros Collection is for sale while supplies last! @leafstore
I just wanted to post the fucking spectacular “I say to the–nay!” joke that I swear Ian was dying to use this whole arc, but honestly this whole scene is so goddamn hardcore that I have to post all of it
Yes, using up his final bit of power, that weird horse from that one random story Penders based on a DnD campaign has become one of the most badass characters in the comic, thanks in no small part to the amazing action scenes Fry drew here. And on top of beating Mogul, Connery’s also destroyed the Sword and Crown of Acorns, two of the biggest copout MacGuffins in the comic and the last shred of the creepy Source of All concept Penders introduced. While Sonic and pals might not be too pleased about that, I sure am
Of course, because he had to use the last of his power to destroy these sacred relics, Sir Connery doesn’t make it out of this encounter alive
RIP, Sir Connery. You were a real one
