50 Wholesome And Cute Comics By Irregular Galaxy Doods (New Pics)

This time, Bored Panda wanted to know some of the most fun, absurd, or unexpected ideas the cartoonist has considered for their comics but hasn’t yet explored. Here’s what we found out: “Okay, so I had this dream; Ash Ketchum drops a Pokéball, and instead of doing nothing, it starts capturing the ground... and it doesn’t stop. The energy field stretches across the entire earth and captures the planet within the ball. The caption would be ‘Gotta catch 'em ALL.’ I’ve never made it into a comic because: 1. I’m too lazy to draw it all, and 2. Part of me is worried that if I render it visually, it manifests into reality. I actually told a comic friend that he could draw it if he wants... but he hasn’t posted in over a year soooo... If anyone wants to make it please tag me, and don’t blame me if the world ends.”

We asked the author of Irregular Galaxy Doods what form of media they would choose if their universe could be adapted into something else. Here’s what the cartoonist had to say: “A game, definitely. I’d love to make an RPG with quirky little characters doing silly things, but also, it would get philosophical, and it’d explore things about life and stuff. I’ve thought about trying to make something super basic using RPG Maker, but I think about a lot of things tbh. A movie would be pretty sweet, too; if any bigwigs are reading this, let's make it happen.”

The artist also shared with us what kind of music would best suit the comics they create: “My ideal soundtrack would be composed by Andrew Prahlow (if you haven’t played Outer Wilds, then play Outer Wilds; if you have played Outer Wilds, then play it again). It’d be something you could hum along to; it’d make you feel safe and seen and a little bit sad sometimes (but that’s okay). Hopefully, it’d mostly make you smile.”

Finally, we were curious about what the cartoonist would like to share with their readers that they might not know about the series. Here’s what we found out: “That I have around 500 original bonus comics over on my Patreon? Haha, no, I won’t say that that would be shameless self-promotion. It might not be ‘exciting,’ but one thing I don’t say enough is how grateful I am. I started drawing my little comics when I was in a bit of a low place and never would have dreamed that so many people would choose to come and hang out with me every day. The world can feel like a big, dark, scary place right now, but we’ve got each other. Take comfort in your friends, your family, your pets, your favourite TV show, your plushies, your coffee, your bed (how great is BED). Never trust your negative thoughts after 9 pm; every day, give yourself a little present, stay hydrated, breathe deep, and go easy on yourself because in the end, you’re trying your best - and none of us really know what we’re doing.”
