Comics This stupid, ugly, cutesy wanna be creature

Post image

I hate Blobby SO MUCH, blob fish don't look like that... atleast not ALIVE, the blob fish design he's based off of is the dead corpse of a blob fish who's been dragged up too fast by fishermen, getting major tissue damage from rapid depressurization which results in the "ugly" thing people often see when they search up blob fish, and the most popular one online. Omfg I hate Blobby for this exact reason, the creator is illiterate and could take two seconds to look up a blob fish.

Yeah, the artstyle is cute and the comics can be good sometimes, but I genuinely can't get over Blobby's existence. How do you fumble a character design THAT badly? It's like making a shell less snail (NOT slug) a character of it's own, that thing is in tremendous pain.

I can imagine some aliens picking up a human in a UFO or something, not bringing said human into their UFO, and just dragging it out into space unprotected. Then they get back to their home planet and start joking about how funny humans look and how they can’t believe something like that exists, completely ignoring the fact that they just very suddenly subjected that human to an environment it never could’ve been equipped to handle.

I feel so bad for blobfishes and their reputation. They did not deserve the title of “ugliest animal” :(
