This drawing is based on a Game Boy mom meme, but except of a mother beating a Super Mario Land level for her kids, it's a retired, legendary-military-general-turned-a-local-sheriff helping a fiend prince beat a level of a scaveneged, gameboy advance game, the teen struggled with for a while now.

I love Mercy's Design ! It get some Naruto's vibes.

Thank you for the ask, @tatouchantilly!
Manga/anime in general was a big inspiration to me for years - especially for my comics - so certain elements of that aesthetic became inseparable part of my drawing style!

You're preaching to the choir here, @the-stage-manager. I knew all of the above mentioned facts (and I knew about sapper-rats before - I even mentioned it in one of my earlier posts [LINK]). Also... I always wanted to have a pet rat!
I like the idea of Wrecker having a pet rat - mostly because he is a sapper, so he can totally train his pets to sniff out landmines or other explosive materials.
The more I think about it - Kamino can easily have a "rat problem" as those animals can be stowaways on ships coming and going to the cloning facility and since they're so inteligent and have no predators to stunt the growth of a population they just live out of Kaminoans' sight. The fact Wrecker even caught one was most likely due to him leaning half-eaten food out in the open on his bed (as shown in the concept artworks) and Clone Force 99 is absent in their barracks for prolonged amount of time - so it's plausible for a rat to make a nest in Tech's entanglement of cables or inside a spare helmet by stuffing them with shredded blanket or spare blacks.

Howdy!!! I love your art!
I have a quick question: When the bad batch kept a bear for a pet, where did it go to the bathroom??? Did they train it to use the toilet? It's a pretty small ship, and I can imagine the poop smelling horrid. (Especially for Hunter)
Unrelated, but I can see the bad batch having a pet raccoon after having a pet bear. After seeing your fanart and headcanon about the bear, in my mind I've decided that they have a pet raccoon. That seems like something they would do.
Sorry for the random thought about the raccoon. Thanks for your time!!!
I never really thought about logistics of having a bear on a small vessel like Havoc Marauder. Also, let's face it - the ship's layout is not... consistent throughout TCW & TBB... so there could always be a cargo hold we're not aware of.
As for the second part of the ask - I think Clone Force 99 had many pets, big and small, thought out their career and space!racoon as well as a space!goose could be one of them. They always end up releasing the animals into the wild or finding them proper homes.
I think the main "can we keep it?" instigator is definitely Wrecker.
Tumblr media
In Hyperspace stories #10 comics it was noted the big guy collects plushies (or at least tries to) - it could be a substitute of owning a real pet for him.
Sorry for such a late reply, @mishakoon!

Hey,
love your art!!! It’s been a tough year and TBB really got me through it and motivated me to keep learning music so I’d love to play my violin exams in May dressed as Omega from your „recital” comic (with small modifications due to the dresscode and comfort) as a little tribute hahah would that be okay?
Tumblr media
Thank you for the ask @theblackparadeprincess! and WOW! You play a violin?! That's such a hard instrument to learn! I always wanted to learn to play a musical instrument, but... let's say, it's better for me to stick to visual arts...
I understand what you mean - Star Wars is helping me go through all sorts of rough patches of life every since prequel trilogy came out! Not to mention I found connection with many great people who, like me, enjoy adventures of space!wizards in Galaxy far, far away!
And lastly - not only I have nothing against you taking inspiration from my works to create something of your own... I'll be honored if you did!
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you in May (I'm sure you won't need it)!

Above them, he can hear heavy boots coming closer and stopping. He holds his breath, hoping no one will look too close.

I know... I know I'm jumping on the meme redraw bandwagon but when I draw crossover of any series with The Witcher you know I'm in too deep in a hyperfixation.
Also... "Gegege no Kitaro" by Shigeru Mizuki basically reshaped the view on Yokai for Japanese audiences in '60 XX, while "The Witcher" by Andrzej Sapkowski changed the view on slavic folklore for Polish people in '90 XX. so it's inevitable for SOMEONE to put Geralt and Kitaro together in one drawing. It might as well be me.
it might sound far-fetched but... Kitaro and Geralt are more similar than you might think!
They are both considered "outsiders" - Geralt is a witcher, mutated human who's sole purpose is to kill monsters for the right price - he is no longer considered a human being and often considered a monster himself by people who he is suppose to protect. Since he was created to kill monsters, or what humans consider to be monstrous, he is not accepted by any side of the human-non-human conflict. Kitaro is a Yokai (a term used to describe Japanese monsters) who is a human-yokai negotiator. Yokai thinks he is on humanity side, while humans thinks he sides with the monsters.
They are both long-living. Geralt, due to his mutations, is around 100+ in the book series. Kitaro, due to him being a monster, is 50+ but mentally he is a teenager.
They are both considered "ugly". In "The Witcher" books, Geralt's appearance is often described as uncanny thus people are often spooked by his inhuman look (it was later nullified by 3rd "The Witcher" game and, especially, Netflix series - in those he is gruff but good looking). In "Gegege no Kitaro" manga Kitaro is often described as a "creepy kid" and the title of the franchise is sometimes translated to "Spooky Kitaro" or "Kitaro of the graveyard". In newest version of the anime Kitaro doesn't look grotesque but in early manga and in Hakaba anime from 2007, Kitaro ain't the prettiest.
Both Geralt and Kitaro have "magical abilities" and "magical equipment" to deal with monsters.
Geralt has witcher medallion which vibrate when monsters are nearby (I'm sure, Geralt's medallion would activate when in close proximity to Kitaro), Kitaro hair stands up when he is close to a monster activity, warning him about the monsters beforehand.
Geralt has witcher signs (a set of basic magical spells) which can create: fire (Igni), entrapment (Yrden), waves of energy (Aard), energy shield (Quen), calm animals or bend other people's will (Axii) etc. while Kitaro can generate electricity and use his hair as spikes or fingers as a spiritual gun among other abilities.
As every witcher, Geralt have two swords - silver and steel - as well as potions that enhance his abilities. Kitaro have a chanchanko vest made of spiritual hair of his ancestors and wooden getas those are basically multiools during his encounters with monsters.
2018 anime (AKA 6th series) is closer in philosophy to "The Witcher" depiction of morality - in "The Witcher" it's often noted that the most monstrous of being are humans. Their despicable actions often leaving Geralt more and more disgusted with humanity.
The same sentiment can be seen in 2018 anime, but to a lesser extend. The 2018 anime mostly follows the tried and true "monster of the week + moral at the end of the episode" formula. However, sometimes an episode ends with characters not learning their lesson or learning that their behavior is abhorrent but going back to their old ways anyway. Since Kitaro's view on humanity is already very fragile in the 6th series, he is left more and more heartbroken seeing how futile his actions are.
Well... that's the gist of it.
If you're interested either of the series, know that "The Witcher" books are intended for more mature audiences while "GeGeGe No Kitaro" is a shounen manga.

347th had an enormous load of the samples to process, so all hands were on deck at their labs... including Mercy.
I guess, at the and of the day, the basics stay the same for everyone working at the lab, be it clone, Jedi or civilian lab technicians.

Hypatia would be a safety stickler in the lab. It’s like she feels it in the force. This drove Mercy up the wall because he is safety conscious. Not his first rodeo on things.
Here is a list of grievances and proof to Master Hypatia that he was being safe when he was manually doing old school pathology..
Hypatia: you aren’t putting your knife guard up!
Tumblr media
Mercy: WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS UP!!!
Hypatia: oh
—————-
Hypatia: you better not have any fingers near that blade when you are ribboning.
Warning photo has a blade in the picture.
Tumblr media
Mercy: I’m using the forceps like you told me. My fingers aren’t even close.
Hypatia: don’t back talk me my young apprentice.
Mercy: Oo seriously.
@paperback-rascal this was a lot funnier in my head. Though it could have been the headache that I had. Hope you enjoy it a little bit.
