The Comet promo by writer/storyboard artist Jesse Moynihan
premieres Friday, June 5th at 6:15/5:15c on Cartoon Network
from Jesse:
Friday at 6PM is the final 2 episodes of Adventure Time Season 6. The First part, “Hot Diggity Doom” was boarded by Tom Herpich and Steve Wolfhard. The second part “The Comet” was boarded by myself and Andy Ristaino. It’s the only board I ever did with Andy. It’s also Andy’s last board. He left the show for a while to work on personal projects, which is something I hope to do in the future as well.
I’m really glad I got to do this board with Andy. He’s a chill dude and we connect a lot about psychedelic visual designs and scenarios.
I hope y’all enjoy this two part collision of motifs and themes we’ve been working with for a while. I believe Season 6, more so than previous seasons, will be more illuminating when viewed as a whole.
Something I loved about the treatment of the Mistress in Doctor Who
Never once is the Master changing gender by regenerating treated as something weird or unnatural or creepy
It’s not portrayed as something that’s been done BECAUSE she’s evil it’s just treated as something Time Lords do sometimes and the characters all react to it in a very matter of fact way. The Doctor is surprised at first but only because he thought the Master was dead with no way of returning
Once the Mistress has revealed who she is the Doctor just treats her the same way he’d treat the Master in his previous forms and when Osgood works out that Missy is the Master she’s just ‘She’s the Master and this time she’s regenerated into a female body’ and doesn’t find it any more odd than any other Time Lord regeneration
This is very important to me
That the genderfluid nature of Time Lord’s is treated as totally normal
And when Clara finds out about it all she does is note that the Doctor could be a ‘Queen’ if he wanted as well as a king, she totally accepts the idea that the Doctor can be a woman as well and doesn’t find it the least bit odd and the Doctor likewise is all ‘That’s not a bad idea’ :D
i humbly present: a digital download of every article in thetimes of london about the 1832 june uprising, from the 5th (the announcement of general lamarque’s death and upcoming funeral) to the 20th (accounts of the first trials of alleged conspirators and participants in the uprising).
below the cut, i’ve put together some important contextual information: how the times gathered news on foreign events, what other events you’ll see mentioned, and the general editorial bias of the paper.
i’ve also made a little summary of each day’s coverage, so that if you’re overwhelmed by the full package, you can focus on the bits that interest you.
