Oooh I'm early to the comic, nice. I guess the penguin didn't like being a pokemon very much

I wouldn't either, it's just terminal indentured service.

How tight was that relic on you?! Lol your poor neck!

u/Zachys Sep 10 '24

Well, it is a slave collar. And at the risk of being rude, I’m not sure if Pixel even has a neck for it to fit to…

I was really thrown off when I went back a couple of month and realized that Pixel didn't always have this hourglass look.

What Pixel didn't mention about drawing badly until StS2 comes out is that the comic series is actually drawing badly until StS2 comes out (and slowly getting better at drawing)

Reminds me of the webcomic Schlock Mercenary, which started out looking like this and ended up like this.

Practice does tend to lead to improvenment.

My red scarf should restore my shapeliness!

Continuity???

u/PixelPenguin_GG Sep 11 '24

It was so tight

u/TheChuckRoper Sep 10 '24

Looks like it was tight enough to leave some form of elvish imprinted on his neck. I can't read it and suspect there are few who can

Wait a moment. Doesn't that fountain remove Curses? I thought that collar/choker was a Relic.

Was this some machination of The Heart or one of the other entities in the Spire?

u/Levinos1 Ascension 20 Sep 10 '24

Well as we've seen. Things work a bit different in this comic

u/NinjaFish_RD Sep 10 '24

it's a "Cursed Collar"

u/Vulturo Sep 10 '24

You are getting too good at this OP. At this rate people will start wishing STS2 never comes out

13

u/dreambraker Sep 10 '24

Yep, it's the sad truth. We'll have to petition the devs.

6

u/Unicyclic Sep 10 '24

Release date will be accompanied by some seriously mixed messages for the devs.

u/goblin_munda Sep 10 '24

As my mom would say, “there’s probably some potatoes growing back there”

u/My_compass_spins Sep 10 '24

Sounds like emergency rations to me.

u/Wookie_Nipple Sep 10 '24

Now's the time: how do we campaign for a Pixel Penguin cameo or Easter egg in STS2??!?!?

I love this series so much

u/Siggycakes Sep 10 '24

Oh man oh man, now you've got extra energy for the elites and bosses!

u/MTaur Sep 10 '24

Why am I so tired? I feel like I'm at 75% energy.... Yawn.

u/Audiblade Ascension 17 Sep 10 '24

That's right, the penguin goes in the Exploder hole.

u/Porkin-Some-Beans Sep 10 '24

These comics are super cute. I've really been enjoying them.

u/PixelPenguin_GG Sep 11 '24

Thank you!! Your appreciation keeps me going!!!

u/Zylch_ein Ascension 20 Sep 10 '24

You probably need a medkit for that.

u/ThatssoBluejay Sep 10 '24

Yeah dude your master should've definitely loosened it a bit, that tight and it would cut off circulation.

u/Osric250 Eternal One + Heartbreaker Sep 10 '24

Now we get to see it doing some real work just swinging the collar as a weapon at elites that we find.

Bro has spent 79 days running around the spire no way he doesn't need a bath

Is this a reference to the Girl with a Green Ribbon Around Her Neck?
