Endtown by Aaron Neathery for July 05, 2019

Yeah. That would be bad.

Actually, rethinking it, it wouldn’t be so bad, because there would be nothing to compare it to.

I guessed right! Burst like a zit!

As worst case scenarios go, that’s pretty bad.

The literal end of everything. Then what? Start over with a new Big Bang?

My guess it is about time for Arron Marx to pay us a visit.

Wally: “Well, ok. So, let’s not do nothing. Let’s do the opposite of nothing. Let’s go get some popcorn and some good seats and watch. Watching is not nothing.”

A statement by the A.I. on the Fitzgerald: “your live earth is bracketed by unbelievably huge numbers of dead earths..it simply should not exist within this wavelength.. but here you are..” I have no idea how that works in with this. LOLDon’t go to the following link if you haven’t read the story through to that point. Going to earlier parts in the strip if you haven’t read the story through isn’t nearly as much fun. But…here’s where the A.I. says it: https://www.gocomics.com/endtown/2016/09/16

Super depressing!!!

Let’s go back and ask Ravenscroft what to do.

The question is…..can this be reversed? Dittos will be no help here. A dimensionmeter might help…..if Marx would let Wally borrow it.

A Lucranian ship could also be useful. Anybody know a friendly captain of a Lucranian ship? Remember to bring your toasters to pay your fare!

How did Wally and company get there? The real answer is to figure out how to unravel the twist.

Maybe Accutane would help?

HOLY CRAP this is too cool! This is even better than what I was figuring! I mean, I did figure it had to do with multiple realities and the ability to cross among them—although I figured that the Amesworth Radiation had something to do with weakening the barriers between universes. But this bubble thing….woooo! too cool.

Great, a lose – lose situation!

Now I have to keep track of a pair of ducks?

AW c’mon!

Maybe at the moment all possible realities coexist, they can step into the best possible one.

Why did Ravenscroft want the recorder left on the shore so badly?

so either everyone there dies or the entire multiverse dies…contemplating the end of the universe is really disturbing…

I thought about all the comics, SF books, and other stories where the worst case if things go wrong with whatever they’re working on is the END OF THE UNIVERSE!

Of course, in the story, it gets fixed. But out here in the real world? Think about it. Billions of galaxies, billions of stars in each galaxy, uncounted worlds full of intelligent beings working for millions of years Messing With Things Beings Were Not Meant to Know.

And yet, here the universe is. Either things that can destroy the universe are unimaginably rare, or we’ve been inconceivably lucky up to now.

LOL! I just found this other cartoon which is just perfect for the present bit of Endtown.

Ravenscroft, what have you done!!

Doesnt sound so bad to me. At least it isn´t an eternity in hell.

There is no Mutagenic plague. Topsiders only see digital constructs of what they look like because no one can be seen without their suit. Guess what kids, they do not mutate when the suit seal is broken, they are already ducks, cats, dogs etc. inside their suits, they just don’t know it because of the digital image created by the goggles. They do not mutate, they do not change, they are the same in the suits as they are out of them. That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it until we learn otherwise.

Going back and rereading everything, Marx really doesn’t seem all that knowledgeable about the metaverse. I wonder if he really was just a couple of parlor tricks away from a fraud

So, Monday’s strip (01-Jul-19) was a teaser; we know these cats have got to go to the bird, only we know that the bird has already been eliminated?

If you’re going to sit on your butts, don’t forget the popcorn. It’s going to be some show!

Either all is sorted out, meaning no problems; or all is eradicated, meaning… umm… no problems….

Maybe Ravenscroft has been reading a little to much of Michio Kaku’s ideas?

Hi folks, I am Aaron’s Fiancee and well…He’s here with me in the E.R , but to sick to do much.He’s been struck down by Chronic Illness Gods and his Leg flared up last night.Than you for your patience.

With all the alternative realities Ravenscroft speaks of, I wonder if he was some kind of quantum physicist before he mutated.

Endtown readers please keep Aaron in your thoughts. I just heard it from one of the “Endtown Appreciation Society” admins on Facebook that he’s been taken to the hospital due to his leg flaring up.

IF it’s only a small pocket universe, it makes you wonder how they got into it in the first place. The last thing we saw of these guys was them being left in the desert by the Lucranian ship. And then … here.

Oh no! Broken images across the site! The multiverse has already ended!

I wish I didn’t have to constantly check to see if the page has been updated yet or not, since GoComics can’t tell me on my Comics I Follow page.

18:50 (6:50 PM) MDT, and still no Monday strip.

Often, it seems better to watch this strip one month at a time. Easier to follow the story, and less frustrating with the (almost always) late postings.

11 pm MST and the panel from Monday is still not posted.

Should I be concerned about Mr. Neathery’s health again? Morning of July 10th, still no comic for July 8th.

Best wishes, Aaron, on a speedy recovery. And not just because we want to know what is happening in Eden. :o)

@Aaron – Hope you get well soon .

Take care of yourself first, Aaron. We can wait. BTW, those first two storyboards from 2009 remain safe and are prized possessions. And thanks for the update, Selina…Aaron’s lucky to have you.

Good luck, Aaron!

Hoping Aaron feels much better soon — best wishes and ease of heart to you both!

Prayers are lifted!

Hi, hope Aaron is feeling better today. Hang in there and get well soon. Boops and purrs.

Dang, I know about leg problems. I’ve got lympodemia (can’t spell it) in my legs which is basically permanent and I ended up with some open wounds I’ve been having treated for the last seven months. Fortunately nothing that has ever required me going to E.R. You both have my heart felt best wishes and prayers for his successful treatment. God Bless!

Thank you all for the well wishes , donations, emails, Prayers. From Reader’s, Friends,Family,Cartooneists and internet Personalities and Patreon’s Old and New.He was released yesterday with the leg still really bad looking, and oddly he had a half a bag of I.V Antibiotics left that he was pulled from as he was dismissed.He was still very ill to ill to be released lest alone drive and told told to fill his prescription ASAP or it would get worse.Xyvox is a really hard medicine to find and crazy pricy so we wound up on an epic quest only to finally to return to our Apartment and tend to our cats and make arrangements with my job and let family know.It was wild and if things had not been so hectic I would have updated you all sooner.He’s still very sick, but he said you can contact him at his e-mail AaronNeathery@gmail.com.You can also look up the Facebook Group who has been helping as well.Thank you all again, more tomorrow.

As the paradox soup cools, it coagulates into a sort of paradox sludge, then, as time goes on, the sludge solidifies into paradox concrete.

GET WELL SOON! PRAYERS TO YOU AND YOURS
