Lackadaisy Lovecrafty / Halloween

[@darkhorseman90]

Big Question tho: Is Mordecai more freaked out about the supernatural spectres or the fact that he can now see every microscopic piece of bacteria swimming around him

[@dunes8817]

Probably #2

[@bea-trix6545]

Both

[@jaydeebee69]

Yes

[@prettypjohnson4970]

Definitely both

[@eoghanfeighery7383]

Both. He did kill a guy because he had a runny nose.

[@Al1701]

Lovecrafty provides excellent context to Mordecai's reactions. Has Ivy in his sights: Can't kill the old boss's goddaughter. Has Rocky in his sights: I don't know if a mere bullet can slay this eldritch horror, BUT I CAN'T ALLOW HIS CONTINUED EXISTENCE TO GO UNCHALLENGED!

[@bella_daze3092]

LMAO😂😂😂😂😂

[@GuillermoParraSilva]

I think I feel kind of bad about Ivy's backstory. Hope she doesn't get killed in the future! 😰

[@LunaMane]

That was Mordecai's first mistake; not paying attention to all food and beverages when he's around Rocky. I wouldn't trust Rocky not to spike an inanimate object somehow.

[@alucardsantradideus267]

[@jeremiahwallace2275]

I just love how Viktor doesn’t say anything during Rocky’s lamination, and simply puts on Rocky’s pumpkin nodule instead. Probably because he knows that it is easier to play along with Rocky shenanigans than to argue against it. And yes, Viktor is my favourite Lackadaisy character, with Zibb coming a close second.

Rocky at the end of Lovecrafty having the same type of expression as the mummified bug man from Ren and Stimpy is both adorable, and a little unsettling. Mordecai is just adorable, however

[@chiguirojaguar]

All of Lackadaisy is amazing!

[@Mr_LongSchlong]

Don’t look up what Lovecraft named his cat though

[@michaelandreipalon359]

Time to put "IMBIBE" in the morbidly creepy VA vocabulary. Also, the "Lovecrafty" entities kinda bring into mind the manga/anime Mushi-shi. Anyone ever checked on those? And who would've thought we had Halloween costumes like those back in the day. Now those may need a renaissance.

[@ernovincze2900]

So in these comic dubs they have the same voice actors as in the animated pilot? Awesome.

Especially since he's pronounced as CAThulu.

[@kimmy1325]

"A World Of Magic, Music And Pancakes", a Lovecraftian horror series featuring daily life in the mind of Rocky.

[@gearknight8870]

The spin-off will most likely be about rocky stumbling upon a magical book called a "cosmic grimoire" which (if chosen) gives him the ability to use eldritch and rune magic. However there's not just one cosmic grimoire in his world. Btw, those books also gives the user access to the realms of the eldritch gods and natural immunity to their madness.

[@kimmy1325]

@@gearknight8870 Maybe he'd find the book back in his childhood and that's why he could "see eternity" when he ate pancakes for the first time. And for as long as the spin-off would go on, it'd put Rocky's weird view of the world on full display as if it's all real("Mrs. Pepper" looking more like an actual pepper, Freckle being a tiny lil skrunkly before turning into a horrifying demon-cat when he gets handed a firearm, the dynamite scene in the pilot being displayed as Rocky wearing a top hat and clown makeup while riding an eldritch monster and throwing down exploding fireballs, the whole spin-off being in the same artstyle as Rocky's poem in the beginning, etc. Only the flashbacks from before he found the book would share the style of the rest of the pilot.)
