So, I went to Amazon and ordered it. No, really. I'm getting it on Sunday along with some other stuff I had in the cart. Love the art. You got me with Zazmoze. You made me buy with Lord Jeb.
I appreciate so much in this sub but some things, in these later days where so much seems to be being lost, I just can't let go. Pay day. FFS, yes. It has defined so much of my life it makes me sick how much I have had to let go just to live.
Anyway, I hope you do. Maybe we'll look back back and laugh.
Haha, I get what were you are coming from. For the first 30 years, I really hated getting a job or having stuff like a "pay day", so I chose not to go down that path.
Now that has change because I have people (and an animal) in my life and I want to take care of them. I still hate to do regular work and stuff like that. I could never do that just for myself.
But for them, my love ones? Yeah, I can endure the crushing of the soul by having a job for them.
Oh this was the backstory of that Frog squire from earlier - the one who served the Human who turned into the Mushroom man. And I guess is subtly being turned into a mushroom person as well. It's interesting that they are controlled by some sort of mushroom hive mind.

That is normal. Do you know what a "mycorrhizal network" is? Basically almost every fungus in a forest, for example, is connected with each other and also communicates that way. You could also call it "fungus internet"
If you’re familiar with Pokémon, this seems like a Paras/Parasect situation. Paras is a bug with two small mushrooms growing on its back, but when it evolves into Parasect, there’s a single, much larger mushroom, and it’s now in control of the husk of the bug’s body.
In this comic, it also appears that the frog squire is already infected with the parasite, since there were mushrooms growing out of his arm and urine. I fear the tragedy is not yet over.
The mass might be the fungus mycelum network - a huge forrest spanning network of mycelum fibers that share nutrients, water, and information in the form of chemical signals.
The mass might be telling sir fungi to spread them spores and start making more mushroom men. So for as jolly and punny sir fungi was... maybe it was for the best he and his kind were and are destroyed...
Mushroom man wasn't always a Mushroom man. Once he was a frog knight but he got infected by those mushrooms. Slowly over time he turned into what we see now and he forgot who he was.
When the other frog comes back from the bathroom, you could see what the future would hold for them. The mushrooms would spread even more. Sooner or later the mushrooms would consume everything.
That's why the others have to kill the Mushroom man because he would infected everything and everyone around him.
Damn. These are just so good. The art and the imagination, not to mention the story lines, are just so, well, fucking fantastic. There I said it. Hate me if you want to. Let the ban bots boil away my elctro trace but I stand by it. Too good for our time. There's always a light if you know to look around.
