For those of you up for celebrating The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie's anniversary, tonight I'll be participating in a live commentary with my pal Comic Auzi on his YouTube Channel tonight at 9:30pm EST.

This is one of those things where you'll have to watch with your own copy of the movie (don't want Viacom to take down the stream). We'll let you know when to start playing so our commentary will be in sync with the film.

20 years later and I'm still a Goofy Goober... Yeah.

Happy 20th anniversary to the original SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. In my opinion, not just the best SpongeBob movie, but possibly the best film based on a TV show, period.

(Back in those days movie tickets cost only $5 for a kid and $6 for an adult. I wish I could go back...)

It's Mickey Mouse's birthday once again, which means it's time for my annual Mickey tribute piece. With Epic Mickey Rebrushed being released this year, it was only natural that Epic Mickey be the focus for this year (I had already done a tribute for Epic Mickey 2 back in 2022 for that game's 10th anniversary).

However, to be honest I was actually pretty stumped while making this. The original Epic Mickey is one of my favorite games of all time, it would later provide heavy inspiration for my webcomic Think Ink, so I wanted to do it justice, but it was a struggle for me as to what to include in this piece.

Do I try to include all of the locations into one picture? Do I focus more on the choices angle with Mickey relying on either paint or thinner? Do I focus on the relationship between Mickey and Oswald? It was hard to figure out what could best represent the whole game because there's so much in that game. It eventually got so overwhelming that I didn't work on this until the 17th, one day before Mickey's anniversary.

Sometimes that last minute rush can help you best make a decision, so I decided to focus on the Blot here. In addition I tried to match the Mary Blair inspired look of the game's cutscenes.

One touch I really love here is using the original poster for "Steamboat Willie" as the ground the characters stand on here. Somehow Mickey, Oswald, and Gus standing on (or in Gus' case, floating over) Walt Disney and Ub Iwerk's credits feels very fitting.

Happy 96th Anniversary Mickey! Only 4 more and you'll hit the big 100 (hopefully it will be a better celebration than your studio's 100th).

Finally went ahead and rebranded myself. I am now "WaggToon", currently working on a new logo as well as a new portfolio website, but for now all of my social medias have been updated with the new handle.

Thank you all for your continued support.

And now an important message from Bullwinkle J. Moose.

Recently realized people without Patreon accounts can't vote on the poll, so here's a Strawpoll. (Last poll, promise)

It's becoming apparent that some people are thinking my userhandle "JWCartoonist" might stand for Jehovah's Witness, which was not my intention at all, those are just my initials. So I've figured it's time to rebrand (again) and I need help figuring out the best handle.

Seems like "WaggToon" was the most popular choice, but I'm still curious about some alternative names similar to it.

Hey everyone bad news.

Originally I was going to have the big Halloween stream tonight, but unfortunately I've caught a bad stomach bug (and I think constantly pausing the stream for me to use the bathroom would make for an awkward stream), so the Halloween Stream will have to be postponed until a later date yet to be determined, though it will still happen.

Thank you for your understanding. Stay well.

#Scoobtober 6. Cheese Monster ("A Pup Named Scooby-Doo")

🎶 Monster-ella, nasty fella! Here comes the CHEESE Monster! 🎶

(Expect more Pup representation this month)

#Scoobtober 5. Miner Forty-Niner ("Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!") Miner Forty-Niner is considered to be one of the most iconic Scooby villains but he isn't really that scary. He's just an old guy who growls a lot.

He ended up getting spooked up for his appearance in Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. I decided to incorporate elements from that look into this pic.
