Lol, wow, the effort put into this page is SO much lower than the last 3 updates' grand landscapes. 1 panel of a few crappy rocks and we're back to white voids

Also holy poo poo his face on panel 4

You had your week of backgrounds. It's time to advance the plot such as it is. Either/or situation.

It's impressive that mookie can make a circle and two lines off model to the point it's hard to recognize, but that's definitely the ship from way back.

Is this an edit or did he take off his shirt in hopes of a mongrel orgy

It's an edit from when his house blew up.

This does raise the question of why Snout lives on his own if Mongrelfolk congregate in towns. Too much of an awkward nerd? Everybody grossed out by the second penis growing out of his back?

Thinking about it, this would be a great moment of tension. Snout’s house was blown up, he’s lost everything and is journeying beyond his small patch of land for the first time. Now he’s found a whole town of people like him and the thing that blew up his life is heading right for it. It’s just that Mookie crammed so many months of nothing happening between that event and this one that people have literally forgotten what that ship even is.

It is called Mongreltown instead of having a real name and I don't think mookie can write that well.

The Mongreltown edit fooled me. Well done. I assumed it was legit so Mookie could dodge having to draw any new characters with unique designs. Good job.

Take every critcism back apparently. I honestly have no clue where this narrative is going now. I guess Snout is special so the ship is following to dick him over.

I don't know, this sucks.

You know, I had a gut feeling Ague Proof's edit was going to come true, but I didn't think it'd be that quick! I thought there'd at least be a couple days of meeting the townspeople before it all went wrong.

On the bright side, it means the pacing has picked up!

Wait, so it's high in the sky, way off to his right, and nearly parallel with him, then it's close to the ground, directly behind him, and just now passing him... The visual communication of the ship's location and motion is horrible. Probably because Mookie just didn't want to draw more panels clearly establishing it so he just crammed it in there even though the perspective is wrong.

I just figured that the thing following him was a scout for the “real” ship.

Nope, I think that's the actual ship. He just illustrated it being high up in the sky by drawing it tiny.

Who could possibly say? Either scenario is likely. Mookie could have just been too lazy to draw Mongreltown as it was blown up.

This entire story is just about how mongrels are constantly poo poo on in a very poignant social commentary that is sure to fly over our heads. Much like that spaceship.

Unlike the artist.

I mean I couldn't find a theme or moral message in the original comic, can we really expect one here?

Edit: The answer is: Yes, but only if its written on parchment or a sign.

...wait, wasn't the ship going the direction Snout was running in? Which was presumably towards Mongreltown?

Looking at the middle panel of the previous comic, I can kind of see how the ship might have been going at a slight angle, but the perspective of the comic and the lack of any depth and consistent landmarks makes it hard to figure out where anything is in relation to each other. Besides, a slight angle wouldn't put it in the exact opposite direction of Mongreltown. The only explanations I can think of are either the ship was going back and forth and it wasn't clearly communicated, and/or the art and writing isn't planned out even one comic in advance with no regard for inconsistencies.

I will give him this faint praise: panel 3 is a face that is acceptable. It's not great but it does not make me feel shame to look at.
