In a way I'm surprised nobody's brought up Banana's head shape before. I wonder if any other characters names will be guessed before they're revealed...

So if you're wondering what's going on with Banana's white nose and other unique colorings, that's because he's from a different land mass than Mobius City, a little more tropical- Mobians have evolved subtle differences like that there. I don't know when I'll be able to bring that up in the comic, so I figured I'd mention it here!

2 down, 10 to go!~

Alright, so considering the two new characters' names, I'm thinking blue-hair might be Ocean, or something to do with water. I'unno.

Really liking all the attention that Gell's getting, too! She's one of my favorites. :)

Banana is cute! I love his nose, and his hair, and his tail, and his everything!!!

I like him! I never noticed the dark brown ends of his hair before. That especially makes it look like bananas! It's on his tail too! He's got nice colors going on. Even the red bandana adds so much to his appearance! Also while I'm on the whole bandana thing, I think this would be a wonderful opportunity to point out that Banana wears a bandana. Was that on purpose or just a coincidence?

He looks so happy announcing that his name is Banana. :)

Did some more searching. The blue characters name is or starts with "Blue"!

@Hiya Guy:
You're pretty close in a way! As for Gell, yay! I'm always happy writing for Gell, she's so much fun. As always, more of her in the future!

@JollyPayton:
Thank you!! He's one of the few remaining Dot X characters to even HAVE a tail! : P

@Jam:
Honestly, that was totally a coincidence. While the character Banana was created about ten years ago, the bandanna is part of his design update done specifically for the comic. I didn't even realize!

@AnonyMcMouse:
Wouldn't you be if YOUR name was Banana?

You get 8 points for that one.

It took me forever to figure out what you meant with that last one- The backdrop images are always just royalty-free textures that I adjust to fit the colors of the page, but if there ARE bananas on there, they totally SLIPPED past me!

@Sterling:
AAH! Thank you! Let's hope that trend keeps up!

@SecretKeeper626:
Thanks a BUNCH!
