Grymm Ramblings
Did you know that when CreepKnight and I originally conceived Voodoo Walrus, we had no idea that we'd ever have Science Badger? Hell, he never even intended for there to be a Kaboodles. Napoleon was always meant to be the sidekick pet. Locked in perpetual antagonistic battle with CreepKnight over control of the remote, access to the kitchen, and most comfortable spot on the couch (despite Napoleon's inability to do anything but float around in the air). But then we ended the ill fated "Tripod Run", rebooted things, and took forty some comics to ever get back around to reintroducing the fatty, beef ball of hate.In that time, we'd already introduced Kaboodles as a random badger (OHMYGODNONSCIENCEKABOODLESISADORABLESQUEE) that Grymm had as a pet to serve him tea. Then brought him in again during INFERNOCON as their "Con-Rat Deterrent". I guess by the time we got around to introducing Napoleon, we just fell in love with Kaboodles. He'd gone from being a throw away in-house gag and callback to my other most well known online handle of The Badger Grymm, to a fully fleshed out, named, and beloved cast member.
I don't even know at what point we pushed more for him being some kind of insane gadgeteering, goggle wearing science badger. I think it was just a natural evolution and side effect from giving him the full name of "Professor Kaboodles".
As far as Doc's outfit goes, well, that's a different story. That's the end result of me wanting to switch up her look, go for something more in line with the phrase "cyberpunk whore", and what happens after I frankenstein together about half a dozen cyberpunk fashion ideas that Mirth helped me gather. I think it works for her. Not as a permanent design, because quite frankly it takes FOREVER to properly color and shade. But for this special little arc I think it works quite well. What do you folks think?

The only thing missing to make her more ominous would be to have her holding an acid green, latex bodysuit on a hanger.
CreepKnight
It could be off panel.
Mercenary Clown
and that is a fairly terrifying concept.
Akonite
True, but somehow I don’t think it is with that many goons lurking in the background.
Khaos
Well… If it is off panel, jokes on her. You’re in Lichtenstan for christmas.

The way I see it, Doc’s already had her acid green latex fun. She probably has something…. else in mind now.
Akonite
…I really need new friends if statements like that about comics can trigger a series of looks that progress from confusion to mischief to abject horror. I blame you, sir, for the look of sadism and “I don’t know what I want to do first” on her face that reminds me so much of one of my friends.
Akonite
Also, I thank you and Mirth for giving me an outfit to lust after on Doc. You promised it Friday and definitely delivered.

… I wonder what it says about me that despite the VERY well done art design and curves on the ‘cyberpunk whore’ I found Mirth in the last comic more appealing…
Grymm
It says that you’re much more found of cute and awesome characters than you are of insane, blue haired weirdo’s that who, by the looks of it, have had some… augmentations recently.
Khaos
Well… It looks like this will be a relatively fanservice-heavy arc Two in a row, unusual, but I’m not complaining.
Badger… DESTROY THEM!!!!!

Grymm
I consider this a fan service heavy arc based entirely on the fact that its focusing on Kaboodles. If there’s one character that everyone seems to love and want to see more of… its Kaboodles.
Marchosias
This is true.

You know, if Creepknight doesn’t want your steampunk whore for christmas, I will GLADLY fill in for him. I believe I meet all of the standard requirements. A van dyke, a goatee, I’m just a bit overweight, and I’m a writer. And I look good in green. ‘Nuff said.
Marchosias
The only thing better than scraping the ash and dried barbeque off your skin after a perfectly hilarious death-faking exercise is seeing Kaboodles at his best. The only thing better than that is seeing the Doc. I mean sweet holy mother of gods… You guys are just… fantastic.
