I find it ironic that Alex thinks that King Hippo's exaggerating about how annoying the Eggplant Wizard was. In pretty much all the behind-the-scenes side-stories (and maybe his narration in the story's current timeline, I forget), his obnoxiousness is about the only thing he could say about him.

Perhaps this is his first real taste of him, timeline wise?

This, I think may also be the first time that Videoland has completely and directly contradicted what Alex thought it should be.

I'm thinking this is more of a "subconscious idea" kinda thing. It's not the way he expects it, given the videoland he's seen thus far, but deep down it's what his gut says.

Alex hasn't encountered Eggplant Wizard before this point. Other than on Captain N. His inability to believe he's really that annoying is easy to explain: he's repressing what Eggplant Wizard was really like on the show. ^_^o If the "*produces bad pun* Get it? *produce*s are vegetables/fruits!" catchphrase is any indication, I really can't blame him.

Also, hurray! The Great Change took King Hippo from 'ugly' to 'nauseating.'

And, last but not least, 'Space Yar' is a beautiful thing.

Alex has commented multiple times that the world is working against him, via cartoon rules, that he did not expect. He said "Nothing could possibly go wrong now" just moments before the Sailor Scouts came to try to help him with the Sinistral. I agree that these rules are sometimes assumed, even if not consciously realized, by Alex.

I know he's said Videoland was working against him, but characters have more or less always appeared and acted in the ways he's expected them too.

I'm not saying he nows what everybody is going to be doing all the time everytime, but he can count on characters to act a certain way.

I've been re-reading the comic and noticed that either #605's big spoiler is that King Hippo will get back his old sprite or that it's probably the only page that needs to be updated with the new sprite.

well, either that or those theories of needing a periodic thumb blowing to maintain that form are true

Nah, King hippo just forgot to blow on his finger again.
Notty: You yourself said you were the master of reusing tired jokes until they were so unfunny that they literally absorbed fun and happiness from the universe.

I just cannot get Rosie O'Donnell fucking Barbara Streisand with a strap-on out of my head now.

Thanks.

No, that just needs a retcon. The big spoiler is that Marle is good at Battleship.
