Character designs for a comic I’ll probably never write called “Mario Gaiden.” The premise is that it’s the real story behind the games, not just the drug-addled interpretation brought to us by Miyamoto and his friends at Nintendo.
Also, yes, Toad and Goomba use the same lines. I’m lazy and they’re both shrooms.
