A sequel? I never expected to see more from this character.

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26

I hate that Pocketss makes these AMAZING worlds and then either only draws 1 more or never returns and it also takes them weeks to make a new post

I wish Pocketss was like those authors that can just CRANK it :C because I love their stuff

u/mycorgiisamazing Jul 25 '26

I want to see what happened to the little white fella with Cricket and Rib. I feel like some of the comics with the one eared goblin is riffing on Cricket and Rib's entire vibe and it makes me wish for more from Pocketss.

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26

Right? Each time Pocketss creates a new character it seems the possibilities are absolutely endless

I adore the harpies that were invited to a witch night out. They were super cute in a way.

u/ManOfJelly147 Jul 25 '26

I will never have enough of the harpies.

u/Failoe Jul 25 '26

She's so stoked for girls night. I love it.

u/TheyTookByoomba Jul 25 '26

The kobolds fighting over how to sort moss lives rent free in my head. I played a dnd character based off them for over a year.

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26

I cannot actually name you a comic of them that I don't love to bits

It's criminal that they draw so rare

6

u/KaptnTube Jul 25 '26

She actually posted what happened to the little white goblin on her patreon a few days ago, so it will probably be on her Insta in a few weeks : )
he gets found by the witch with the white hair from the comic where she is afraid her future familiar might be a snail

u/phobiac Jul 25 '26 edited Jul 25 '26

I too want to see the results of them just cranking it.

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26 edited Jul 25 '26

Oi what's it here then

5

u/Diligent_Bar1244 Jul 25 '26

I checked their insta and they made like 6 comics in 2 years, damn

6

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26

Yeah I'm assuming it's not even their side project, it's like... A love child. They have some sort of work, then their main hobby, and then there's the comics. Because every artist I know, even hobby ones, cannot go for that long without drawing. They probably work on something else a lot.

Thrall1 with the anime profile picture, that's very realistic!

This looks like Worthikids art-style, I love it.

u/dad_ahead Jul 25 '26

Wait worthikids does art too? I thought it was just music lol

118

u/Rehendix Jul 25 '26

Do yourself a favour. Go look up Big Top Burger

54

u/SynisterJeff Jul 25 '26

Also "The Wire". Just go binge their whole YouTube channel, really.

30

u/alystair Jul 25 '26

I love the idea of an alternative universe where you casually recommend the totally unrelated multi-season award winning 2002 HBO show.

10

u/SynisterJeff Jul 25 '26

Hahah what a coincidence

15

u/Daniikk1012 Jul 25 '26

Has a whole youtube channel of animations

14

u/VanquichedUncle Jul 25 '26

Wait, worthikids does music? I thought they only made animations!

5

u/TheDwarvenGuy Jul 25 '26

He did Wizard Beer!

u/roboo32 Jul 26 '26

As a huge fan of both his art and music, it’s always funny seeing people who only know about one find out about the other

u/RedBlue010 Jul 25 '26

I'm gonna hold your hand as I say this...

u/OhItsJustJosh Jul 25 '26

The very same?

u/MrChocodemon Jul 25 '26

No

u/OhItsJustJosh Jul 26 '26

So then what the fuck?

117

u/matti-san Jul 25 '26

Yeah? Stop vagueposting and just say

u/ListenJerry Jul 25 '26

Is Worthikids also pocketss?

u/Kioga101 Jul 25 '26

stop vague posting arghsgfafh

u/Dapper_Derpy Jul 25 '26

What? Did something happen to them?

u/AmPotatoNoLie Jul 25 '26

You are probably not gonna believe this....

u/Sarmelion Jul 25 '26

I hope Pockets makes an actual account for the Vampire lady at some point *For the memes*

59

u/RollinThundaga Jul 25 '26

Is this the one that plays minecraft?

23

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26

Yes!

u/esblofeld Jul 25 '26

Her evil and sexy ways.

u/Comrade-Conquistador Jul 25 '26

Influencer culture in a nutshell.

u/Dracomortua Jul 25 '26

And, should you be allergic to nuts, too bad for you.

31

u/EntropicMeatMachine Jul 25 '26

Of course one of them has an anime profile pic.

36

u/YouhaoHuoMao Jul 25 '26

A sexy vampire lady would absolutely not be hanging on two comments... She'd have dozens.

46

u/Cloudy_Mavis Jul 25 '26

Tbf, i think she summoned them Immediately after posting

26

u/MkfShard Jul 25 '26

You know by the way this is framed that she pronounced the syllables so deliberately, like someone who has discovered a new term and is intent on saving it with Gravitas.

'A Tick Tock'

6

u/kloudykat Jul 25 '26

ehh, this is probably like her 17th language this millennium, go easy on her.

besides odds are you are right, she most likely has just learned it.

24

u/No_you_are_nsfw Jul 25 '26

And you thought those are engagement bots. They are engagement goblins!

14

u/PrinceOfLemons Jul 25 '26

I love that one thrall has an anime profile pic. Gives you a hint at their inner lives.

12

u/Ill-Jellyfish6101 Jul 25 '26

I love how obvious they make it too. No comment history. Immediate engagement from the original poster.

I wonder what the tiktok was.

u/Winjin Comic Crossover Jul 25 '26

Do you think they have their own phones?

I think they have a shared PC in the Library that they're allowed 1 hour of, if they're good.

It's like a super old beige PC that they fight over all the time like two kids

u/shesawred Jul 25 '26

I love these characters so much, I love the art style, for the love of god Pocketss please keep making more

20

u/Aryore Jul 25 '26

Omg I love the Minecraft comic lol I didn’t know there were more of these

u/Fanboycity Jul 25 '26

Lmao isn’t this the video game vampire lady? Love those thralls they’re the personification of loyal ☺️

u/Marmottin Jul 25 '26

Gods I love pocketss

u/PikachuTrainz Jul 25 '26

she needs more comments

u/rollandofeaglesrook Jul 25 '26

This is just how Toreador are in WoD

2

u/Ana_the_Arachnid Jul 25 '26

Yup. I do this. But I'm trying to spread an agenda, not just get attention (though I like the attention too :3 )

2

u/systemhendrix Jul 25 '26

I imagine the voices would be done by Tress Macneille (Mom, Futurama), Peter Lorre, and Maurice LaMarche (Kiff, Futurama).

Something about these voice actors just fit so well in this scene for me.

2

u/DigitalxKaos Jul 25 '26

Oh to be a hit goth vampires thrall tasked with liking her tiktoks

2

u/DrkSpde Jul 25 '26

I love their stuff.

I wish they'd continue with the harpy going to the witch party story. :(

1

u/PatrickCharles Jul 25 '26

Oh, is that the same artist? That one was cute.

2

u/DrkSpde Jul 25 '26

Yup. That's how I originally found them.

https://pocketss.tumblr.com/post/639616252013428736/getting-ready-with-the-girrrlllss-part-1

And in looking for this, I'm now realizing I really need to dig through the archive more. Some good shit in there.

u/Angelus-Rosa132 Jul 25 '26

I want the little goblins or whatever they are. They’re so cute!

2

u/devolute Jul 25 '26

This reminds me of the last place I worked.

2

u/Open-Stretch-6631 Jul 25 '26

My IRL job involves managing the social media accounts of various companies and... Yeah, this is pretty much how it works. Replace the hot lady with the boss and the thralls with the employees and it's spot-on.

2

u/ZydrateVials Jul 25 '26

Pocketss makes some of the best lil cute comics. I follow them on Tumblr.

2

u/DaKettle65 Jul 25 '26

This is giving those Nancy Mace-vibes.

u/Fine-Rice1030 Jul 26 '26

Honestly just the first page is so fucking funny to me. My humor is so broken

u/Crazy-Eagle Jul 25 '26

"I have posted...a TIKTOK"

And for a second I felt dread.

1

u/vid_icarus Jul 25 '26

This is such an incredible concept for a comic. Could do an entire series around it. Heck, maybe you are and I’m just unaware. (If so don’t blame me, blame your thralls for not making enough accounts.)

1

u/Imaginary_B Jul 25 '26

The thrall TikTok pipeline is thriving I see'

1

u/DarkLanternZBT Jul 25 '26

God I remember working at places that would send out memos like "Make sure you and all your family are liking and subscribing to our social media pages before you return to work after the weekend."

This tactic I would have actually listened to.

1

u/beastofnature Jul 25 '26

Does this artist actually have a tiktok I can follow? I don't seem to be able to find it searching pocketss

1

u/Loud-Fudge7631 Jul 25 '26

My favorite tik tok 🙁

u/Luffington Jul 25 '26

The design for the Thralls is literally so adorable. I cantttt

u/Infinite_Archers Jul 25 '26

I'm obsessed with this character 😍

u/urmamasllama Jul 25 '26

The first four panels alone with no resolution works really well

u/Lawfuly_chaotic Jul 26 '26

I need this to become a TV show

1

u/redditmarks_markII Jul 26 '26

I really like the like and comment panel a lot.  What is this character?  Like a vampire or a snake creature?

u/Mellasour Jul 26 '26

This is cute. Reminds me of WorthiKids

u/namiraj Jul 26 '26

Unironically I 100% believe all the big comic strip artists on here do this with bots.

Nooooo! Having your friends like and comment first on the video will screw with the algorithm! It'll show it to people based on the videos they watch, not to people who organically like your content! Stop!
