Eric: It's like a reset button where everybody dies horribly!
(From Wigu! Click on the thumbnail for full sized turds!)
I'll admit -- I was one of those people who was sad to see WIGU-TV disappear in lieu of Magical Adventures in Space. And then I was sad to see Wigu classic return in lieu of Magical Adventures in Space itself. I'm just a whiny bastard, I guess.
That being said, I just wasn't feeling it. It seemed... played out, maybe.
And then we went through a plotline where the entire universe was destroyed. Which wasn't the first time. Butter Dimension Cubed and all associated worlds got whacked a while ago, and we went to Butter Dimension Quad. Now, I assume that with Butter Dimension Quad and all related worlds whacked, we're up to Butter Dimension Quint and a whole new Tinkle Family on Earth.
It was somehow really nice to see Wigu playing with his Topato and Sheriff Pony toys in today's strip. It's a subtle way of saying "we're back to normal, thanks to billions of deaths and the destruction of an entire universe."
And so, I'm feeling fully good about Wigu again.
Which means next week Rowland will relaunch American Platypus. He's just TOYING with me!

J.Ro can toy with my mind anytime.
He needs to do cross-overs with others. I'd love to see Topato vs. iMonkey.

When they finish slowly suffocating in the van, Science Cop can investigate their horrible demise...

I think he's toying with all of us. I was all ready to take Wigu off my main comics list onto the "Dead comics" section then he goes and restarts it. It's nice though that he put the WhenIGrowUp comic back online. That one was fun.
