Endtown by Aaron Neathery for November 22, 2022

Bring Holly home!!!

Wile E. Coyote was also secretly in love with the roadrunner. An unrequited love that slowly ate him up.

Wow. That went from Yay Wally, to “Farewell to the most bittersweet rivalry this side of Waterloo.” Cracky goes from stock character to “Endless years of dedicated Tom-and-Jerry effort undone by love.” This is surprisingly impactful, Aaron, and Crackinsky still slips in a last unfunny punchline.

Win a mouse, Lose a lizard!

I love that sexy picture of Holly. I could wear that on a T shirt.

He’ll eventually realize that he did capture her in another life, but had to let her go.

I guess this says something about the inevitability of Wally hooking up with Holly. But both had prior histories before becoming cardoodles. Holly wanted the family she had lost and got it — virtually, anyway. When Wally subsumes Cracky, he’ll remember the family he left behind. Or perhaps Marx will remind him and speed up the process because time’s a-wasting!

How very poignant…

Feel like I’ve been holding my breath for a week!

Welcome back viewers. Cracky/Wally is the base character. An base pallet to draw from. However the reality is doomed to extinction destroying all the Cardoodles who have not moved on to other realities and such. He was never going to catch Holly and at the Edmund she trapped herself but was kind enough to free him.

Nice to see Holly’s face again, even if it’s with a wicked smirk..

For love or for torment, Wally is still broken-hearted to have to let her go again!

This is Wally’s come to cheeses moment.

So, exactly who is this cat we’re dealing with here?

Marx’s way of “saving” people isn’t very easy on them, is it?

There are some pretty lethal looking mousetraps in those drawings. Was he trying to kill her?

Great “action” generated by the zoom in at the end…I am constantly amazed by Aaron’s gift of the real art of drawing.

There are still others to be rescued…Kirbee, Chic, Irving, and others in one place…whoever’s left in Endtown in another place…yeah, I had to look back to remind me of their names, it’s been so long…

Welcome back Go Comics – Missed ya

The expression of the sun in panel one! :)

Some mice you just can’t catch, Wally.

We will know he’s fully “Wally” when his little eye twitch comes back..

Where do we go? Where do we go? Where do we go now ?

This one is great. Just beautiful.

…no matter how many realities you travel…

…sometimes you just have to let it go…

You don’t understand: Trixie IS the mousetrap.

See, I’ve been where Wally seems to be now. Not literally, with the explosions and all, but you know.

And I’m not sure how he could ever be truly happy with Kirby, now, given how he still feels about Holly.

But Endtown never lacks for drama, so it’s probably appropriate.

Oh my god.

Actually, Dvorak built a better mousetrap (typewriter). No joy.

Note that Wally/Cracky has his upper right canine, which Wally did not. Nice side benefit!

This is interesting. In The Original Grex event, The Endtowners we met were “normal” humans that were blended with Cardoodles from one plane. The Cardoodle minds were totally submerged(no memories at all). In cases where that didn’t happen—Schism Syndrome. This Wally is blended again with a different Cardoodle. But this time his mind is a blend with the Cardoodle. I think “our” Wally is at the front, but he can recall memories of Cracky;Maybe like recalling vivid dreams. “Our” Wally can see Cracky’s limited, repetitious life as a series of animated shorts. But he also remembers living in them! The Cracky side now sees what his life was and can see how pointless it was. And of course still has his obsession with Trixie to deal with. And that’s my guess for today.

So many post-its, so little time.

The mouse that got away.

“You can’t take anything with you…” Does that mean they’re all going to arrive naked at the next destination? I know – cut Aaron some slack. ;-)
