I can't believe it, this is so wholesome
They got kicked out of that filming location for some reason, but they were able to finish it:
I love isopods
Many insects are so nearsighted they would actually see nothing but the lips floating out of nothingness to smooch them and then vanish

I like this!! What's the comic about? Explain it a little bit for us, please c:
Oh dear, I’ve been trying to avoid this, but I guess it’s only fair to give you guys some insight into what this whole big mess of pickled pigs’ lips is actually about. So here goes nothing. Please don’t read any of this. Thank you.
‘Tanglefoot’ takes place in a city called Hesperillo, which does have an actual geographic location of sorts, but I’ll keep that under my hat for now. Hesperillo has some superficial resemblance to 30s/40s Manhattan, but with plenty of surreal, phantasmagorical touches. The main character, the sullen gentleman with the silver nose, is one Isidore ‘Izzy’ Perizene. He’s a former carnival barker, former wrestling promoter, former talent scout, former nightclub owner, and currently trying to turn a buck as a small-time talent manager. He is a chronically luckless little nebbish. Early on in the story, he lands an unusual new client. Events unfold from there, and get progressively weirder and sillier.
I regret to say that there will be no zombies. There will, however, be several of the following things;
- Burlesque dancers
- A mysterious spate of self-decapitations
- Giant land mollusks
- Giant sea mollusks
- A protection racket run by a bunch of minor deities
- Paternoster elevators
- Pneumatic tubes
- A band of train robbers who menace the Hesperillo subway system
- Arcane cults
- In vitro meat
- Sinister sirens
- Eels in suits
- An in-depth exploration of how to conduct business when one is forced by straitened circumstances to relocate one’s office to a service elevator
- Dancin’
- Terrible, terrible music hall ditties
- Appallingly silly dialogue
- Bunk
- Hooey
- Nonsense
I guess what I’m aiming for is, I dunno, Kafka as written by a two-bit 1940s radio playwright in the grip of the DTs. Or maybe ‘Invisible Cities’ as written by Raymond Chandler if Raymond Chandler was a trained chimpanzee. Or Ray Bradbury’s short fiction run through a mangle and then acted out by a bunch of Al Hirschfeld characters with a penchant for slapstick humor. Something along those lines. Only worse. Much, much worse. Infinitely worse. Keep in mind that I haven’t written anything since I was seventeen, and that everything I know about dialogue I learned from listening to ‘The Adventures of Sam Spade.’ I also know nothing about pacing, zip about lettering, nada about panelling, and drawing backgrounds makes me weep softly into my ink.
Those caveats aside, I am SO determined to make this ridiculous comic. I don’t care if it turns into a big, ink-spattered trainwreck (it will). I am utterly paralyzed by self-doubt 80% of the time, but during the 20% that remains I intend to write and draw the hell out of this thing.
In the meantime, I’m going to try to compile all the dime-a-dance drawings into a little photocopied chapbook and see if I can’t flog a few off.
There. I sincerely hope nobody read any of that. Now please excuse me while I go and hide.
He sounds exactly like Bob from Bob’s Burgers
I was like "How can a video of a couple being excited about their Christmas decoration be almost forty seconds long?" And oh my.
OH MY GOD! 🤣
I actually Laughed Out Loud!
Oh my god 🤣
it’s safe to say i think about this video at least four times a day, i can quote almost the whole thing from memory
edit:
I am editing this post to say that, while he isn’t on tumblr, you can find this creator on most platforms (i.e. tiktok, instagram, youtube) as @littlevictorianboy !
i highly suggest going to find his content on your own, he’s so funny and he deserves to see everyone’s support !
i made sure to put his @ in the tags and it’s visible on the video but i still felt bad for reposting without explicit permission so i sent him a dm after smoking some weed and he actually responded!
some sort of earthworm woim, with leggie like arm tentacles and flatwormie eye spots
okay some people didn’t know Japan was obsessed with Lilo & Stitch so you probably didn’t know they were so obsessed they made their own anime version that switches Hawaii for Okinawa and switches Lilo for a little girl named Yuna who I think is supposed to be half indigenous Ryukyuan but I don’t know if they actually say so, it might just be implicit
Stitch gets a yokai as a sidekick, a Kijimuna which is a tree spirit important to Ryukyuan culture and other yokai apparently show up now and then
A space elf named Delia is the one who was actually commissioning the experiments and secretly tampering with them to make them more dangerous all along
Delia eventually creates the final ultimate experiment on her own and its name is Dark End
Conversely they also reveal Experiment #000 who is a fucked up crazy cyborg they threw out
the writing was so generic anime that I couldn’t really make it through episode 1 but at least jumba and pleakley are there too
Alright now get ready to hear China made one too but theirs actually fits into the original continuity by having Stitch just temporarily lost in China and trying to get home but it also turns out he has a secret kaiju-size laser tentacle battle mode an evil alien plans to exploit which I gotta say is pretty sick
and dragons are there
spiders ?
That lip movement, soft mouth puppets are so wonderful.
“frogs like this, dont eatthatsortathing, you see they-like-uh, flies,. worrmms,,”
“flies.., -worms?”
“spiders, !”
“spiders ?“
“yes, spi-”
