Description Hey there, folks! Happy Thanksgiving to all you celebrating today!

Last year, I began drawing a comic for the occasion that I wasn't able to finish in time, then this year remembered I had started it, and only just squeaked it in at the last minute (it was supposed to be finished for a Monday update, hehe).

Fellow MiSTies may recognize this bit as a sketch from Mystery Science Theater 3000's Thanksgiving variant episode of "Night of the Blood Beast", originally performed by Mike Nelson, Trace Beaulieu, and Kevin Murphy. This is a Bomango adaptation of the sketch, which stays pretty true to the original, albeit with more "hams", BFGs, and Potato-Beasts.Β 

Of course, it wouldn't be a proper Thanksgiving centerpiece for the table without me expressing my sincere thanks for the commentary, support, and readership of Viewers Like You. Whether you've chipped in via Patreon, or simply enjoyed my work, whether you're a longtime reader or a newcomer, thanks so much!

And have a happy Thanksgiving!

- van

I don't have room in my stomach for mashed potatoes.Β  I do, however, have room on my walls at work for this comic.

Good to see the 'destructive' side of Gogo didn't leave Didi

It just went for a more....'creative outlet'.

Love Didi's body language. Love the how the cuts make her teleport around the room.

I gotta ask do you have something against potatoes?

Question, where did Didi come from I have read almost all the material of yours but I can't find a definite source. On second thought since you're doing the current comic I'm thinking I shouldn't come in with that question. Hams.

She grew from Gogo and was a parasite on her for awhile, looked just like her and acted like her, but once they split she became her own person. Check the very back of the archives for stuff on that. It was back when things were more of a one shot joke style.
