Endtown by Aaron Neathery for July 19, 2022

Oh, my… OK, I’m speechless!

Marx is the freaking maniac that we all aspire to be. Someday.

I pity the poor mushrooms right under Alan.

I wonder if they’ll run into Eddie Valiant?

A beak first landing is gonna hurt…

At least it’s a better-drawn reality. And the way they’re coming down, especially Marx’s “bombie” (as if falling into a pool), it looks like they’re decelerating pretty fast and will land softly if not safely.

I’m just wondering how Aaron, and his alter-ego, Marx, will wrap this tale up. And, will there be another tale?

There’s a sign-post down there by the house. Let’s go see what it says!

Enter the Color Matters era. Our friends you notice are not in color…..this is going to be a problem.

Marx has assumed crash position!

In the last panel, they look as though they have entered a more “fluid” toonville? Soft bubbly landings everyone!?!

Reality-dump.

Loving the tour of realities! Reminds me a bit of the cartoon Gargoyles, where they spent a season travelling the world.

Just a fantastic transition, and Marx’s comment makes our Storyteller seem a bit of an anarchist…hmmm…now isn’t that interesting!

Personally I think Aaron’s just having fun with old cartoon memes right now. But it’s fun to see what he comes up with!

Hurt? What about Marx? He’s doing a cannonball! After lighting his cigar on the film’s audio strip. And the gang’s ‘home’? An origin story story?? Gonna wear out my mouse refreshing for the next panels.

I can see my house from here! I can see everyone’s house from here!

Nice interlude from JJ Carter, Inc. Now back to our show.

Gotta love the two-color process.

Probably messed up the screen lettering on their way in, too.

Careful, guys. The Cardoodle universe is a dangerous place.

I know a few people who apparently travel to other realities frequently.

I like how they are about to land on those mushrooms. No doubt they are some wicked shrooms. Not they need them in any way…

Oh hey, a reality with color and no tiger tsunamis.

Looks like they’ve already made a splash in this world. They’ll get along swimmingly.

I so wanna see this as an animated series…

Might want to put that cigar out around that nitrate stock!

Happy landings or not!

This strictly cannon, guys. Everything Marx does is cannon.

We’re not in the Endtown world yet.

CANNON BALL!!!!!

Looks like it could be the original Cardoodle universe. It’d be funny if it’s packed with the human versions of the people who got transformed back in the “real” world. Terrified animal cartoons who suddenly found themselves a lot taller and with five fingers. Maybe there are cartoon animals in environment suits running around trying to stop the “humanization plague.”

Uh-oh, Marx is cannonballing that dive.

Aaron, Thank you for the email update about your inspirations concerning the coloring (Cinecolor) and cartoons! I have a LOT of fun homework to do

I always have hope, but I wouldn’t be too upset if this comic followed the exit of several other I used to read. You just can’t kill of a main character and not expect to rile reader.

did they land in water?
