i used to run a retrospring account to answer fan questions, then retrospring shut down for some reason. assuredly because it couldn't handle my shockwaves of genius blasting through its servers.
before that i was putting my answers on tumblr, twitter and discord. but as the years went by... the retroactive cognitive dissonance created from putting my essence on those sites was so intense that long standing wars of outdated information still rage on to this day...
so i need something stable to carry the weight of my huge brain. unfortunately, i'm not powerful enough to stop the march of time (yet). history will inevitably repeat itself, but until this place tears itself apart- this thread is my new venue!
standard rules apply: any question relating to me, any of my work, or DCRC is cool so long as you aren't weird about it.
Do you like Scooby-Doo?
That's it, I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago.
I'm going to beat him to death with this hammer.

What currently inactive or dead piece of media would you like to see revived the most?
Who is your favorite non-main cast "The Simpsons" character?
> @Raffy: Do you like Scooby-Doo?
mostly in gummy form. the mystery inc van one is maybe the most blue tasting thing ive ever eaten.
> @Austin [ValantWynn]: What currently inactive or dead piece of media would you like to see revived the most?
vast error.
hey wait, isn't making that part of YOUR job? chop chop buddy!
> @Cami: Who is your favorite non-main cast "The Simpsons" character?
cheating a little by including a subsection of springfield instead of just one character but anyone involved with krustylu studios. krusty himself, the sideshows, itchy & scratchy, etc. their whole job is to get laughs and by god, they manage it somehow.
you watched monkeybone, right? does it have any redeeming qualities or is it just a sick movie for sick, sick perverts?
hi austin!! have you been playing any games recently?
also what is your profile picture from i'm so curious
hi austinado vasterror! favorite spiderman suit?
The reckoning can't wipe this place out soon enough.
hi austin can you give me an idea for a vast error shitpost i've been all out of ideas for so long...
any idea how long the team will be backlogging vast error updates before we start seeing them? is there a certain number of pages you want in the buffer, or just a date you're going to start, regardless of how many pages are made
On Saturday, I let it cool on the windowsill.
hi!!! just wanted 2 say that i LOVED the tazjec section it was so worth the wait like srsly. one of my fav things from this comic so far. but also im wondering when will we get hamifi lore.... i luv her and i wanna know more about her 🥹 ok bye
> @rozie: you watched monkeybone, right? does it have any redeeming qualities or is it just a sick movie for sick, sick perverts?
you can't be baiting me into posting our prolonged monkeybone cuckoldry debate AGAIN
> @Autumn: hi austin!! have you been playing any games recently? also what is your profile picture from i'm so curious
i've dived into marvel rivals over the past several months! typically i play the field but i'm a venom main for what i can only hope are extremely obvious reasons
also it's from the title card drop of max keeble's big move, the height of american cinematic excellence
> @jacknoir: hi austinado vasterror! favorite spiderman suit?
raimi's iteration will always be the platonic ideal of spider-man suit design to me. it takes the obvious and highlights the best elements of it through natural accentuation. the way the webbing works? [punches a wall because i can't show positive emotions online] belíssimo
> @yeem: hi austin can you give me an idea for a vast error shitpost i've been all out of ideas for so long...
giving you a specific example is unsportsmanlike, but i feel we're yet to capitalize on the surrealist niche that most fanbases get at the fever pitch of a long hiatus. why haven't people been conjuring probabilities about every character in vast error being murrit? fake panels for updates that don't exist? get weird with it!
> @scalemate: any idea how long the team will be backlogging vast error updates before we start seeing them? is there a certain number of pages you want in the buffer, or just a date you're going to start, regardless of how many pages are made
my role in vast error is way more "big picture" now than it was earlier this year. which is a fancy way of saying that i know the broad strokes and major decisions of the comic but i don't keep up with moment to moment production. if another big wig pops in here and wants to clarify feel free, but my understanding is that we're taking it section by section and trying to have enough on hand to where we can update a couple times a month

thank you! i really loved writing it too. just wait until the walkaround comes out, then you'll really understand why it happened the way it did.
also it might be sooner than you think, even if in small doses. sestro is arcjec's business patron for a reason, and it isn't to make the secondary cast less relevant lmao
In the spirit of things, I'll ask you this on a forum instead of walking to your room which is right next to mine.
What's a game you think seems generally beloved, but that you can't get into for whatever reason?
Are there any plans for the rest of the ancestors, especially those of Occeus and Serpaz, to appear in the comic? Provided that's information you're willing to reveal, of course
can you do a backflip?

any mmos you ever played?
Very important question, how do you like your burger
Have you ever played a musical instrument? If so, do you still play to this day?

i'm sure you've been asked about influences on your work, but do you have any, for lack of a better term, negative-influences? works or media that have inspired you to do the opposite of whatever the fuck it is they're doing?
i will figure out a good signature. Eventually.
