How Jax Chose His Name [Digital Circus Comic Dub]

[@TranswealthyTrillionaire]

"The thing about madness is that you can either wear it or let it wear you down" - Kinger

[@BeanBug11]

Wise words

[@blackberry1802]

This is a great and well done comic for head canons, but it's also confirmed Jax chose Gangle's name, so Gangle wouldn't be there until later.

[@random1744]

I thought gangle came before jax- I mean maybe not the name like you said, but I mean the character itself. Unless you were only referring to the name and not both the name and the character

[@Blackmar205]

I remember that this Coming in theory came out before it was confirmed,but im sure

[@NickriePlays]

Theory no.2 Gangle dosent have a name too before Jax finnnaly decided on one XD

[@ElskaTheAnimator]

I can totally see Jax going “Pff haha you look like a ribbon that could tangle up anytime! Hehe how about “Gangle” as in “Tangle” but a bit different just cause it sounds better?”

[@soycups]

Conformed? Where?

[@Swanswearbells5547]

I kinda like seeing linger being portrayed in this light. Really goes to show that early on, he was (and still is) pretty wise and willing to comfort any new comers. But as time past and more people began appearing and abstracting he started becoming more detracted and paranoid. Especially most likely after he lost Queenie. It actually makes him all the more tragic to see him fall apart. And I hope we actually see more glimpses of that in the actual show!

[@darcydreaming6931]

I love how you mistyped his name as "linger" and it still makes sense. Kinger's been lingering around the longest, after all

[@dr.altoclef9255]

You can definitely tell that he must be brilliant and fairly good with the others, because despite how out of it he is that still sticks.

[@miss-socio-btpe]

I know

[@KidsInATrenchCoat]

we got to see more glimpses in the actual show

[@MickaylaDiaz-wj4zm]

Goozeworks actually confirmed that Jax cryed a lot when he entered the circus.

Pretty sure Gangle would’ve come after Jax given that the GLITCHX stream implied that Jax chose Gangle’s name.

[@Scp4521]

I always felt like Gangle came after Jax. But this works too.

[@mushroomz3110]

Pretty sure Gooseworx confirmed he came after her. I believe the order it goes in is this (Oldest to Newest): Kinger Ragatha Jax Gangle Zooble Pomni Could be wrong though. Info is from her Tumblr

[@Hello_I_Have_Appeared_]

Yeah, and its confirmed that Gooseworx thinks Jax chose Gangle's name too.

I feel like jax was the third to come from the current crew, the order I see is 1. Kinger 2. Ragatha 3. Jax 4.zooble 5.gangle 6. Obviously Pomni

[@antivoidgirl]

I heard some people say that it was confirmed Zooble was the last one to come before Pomni so I think the last part is wrong. (But I just heard it, not sure how correct it is.)

There's gotta be some lore how Jax became a "bully" of the group like flirting Ragatha and knocking over Gangle's mask

[@Nakia11798]

It's likely that's just his way of coping with all this.

[@bella_daze3092]

I ADORE this concept of how Jax chose his name ngl❤❤❤❤

[@SnowLily123]

And this is why Caine created the name generator.

I thought it was short for 'Jackass' tbh 💀💀

[@CryptidCatArtz]

@@SorielHDTBers while 'jackass' does describe him better, jax doesn't have an 's' so I don't see how that's relevant ('x' makes a sound similar to 's' so I understand what you meant, so sorry for the slight rant)

[@PeachiixxYT]

Fun fact: Jax also chose Gangle’s name

[@MmmMmph1968]

How Jax got his name (writer's room edition) [I assume]: He's a jackass. But you can't swear in The Amazing Digital Circus, so he's a jack- *wacky cartoon noise* -ss. Or, as it sounds, a Jacks. Jax!

[@Songal18]

Wonderful job, you always bring out the best emotions.

[@D4zzling_N1ghts]

Queenie was definitely there when Jax got stuck there.

[@PavitrStan4Life]

i wouldve thought that since we have a KINGer and a QUEENie that we would also have a Jack (JAX)

I was thinking this would be depresive, I like it

[@Puppet_plays404]

I always thought he tried to name himself jack&$$ but the rule of no profanity came back to him so he went "I'm going to be named Jacka- Jax. I wanna be named Jax."

[@fredthegod]

Now we need a comic dub on how jax became an absolute menace

[@RadioEatingPhychopath-bf9qg]

At first instead of being mean to mess with people, he seemed more like a buzzkill. So that probably formed into messing with people after he got more comfortable.

[@oreocooki3375]

I really enjoy the voices!

[@A.basaran]

okay he became one of my most fav ones now

[@puggaming35800]

Jax actually arrived before Gangle. It was confirmed, Jax thought of Gangle’s name as a way to mock her since Gangle means weak or thin.

[@CamdK-k3w]

BRO THEY PREDICTED THAT KINGER CALMS PEOPLE DOWN OML

[@liliagomez1569]

Gangle came after Jax and Jax chosed his name and you can’t choose someone’s name if they were there before you

Dang, Kinger. That's some advice.

[@Angels_shorts675]

Caine: your new name could be anything Me: uh uh uh jkuhb

[@evelyns6879]

Jax, if we count everyone that abstracted out, would be the third oldest. Kinger is the oldest, ( He has been here for over 46 years)And Ragatha is the second oldest. Gangle would not be here before Jax because it was comfirmed Jax chose Gangle's name.

[@pokeriolu]

46? but kinger is 48 how

[@Maryah_Iqbal]

Gangle being nice to Jax almost made me cry though

[@skullton3292]

This is pretty sad. Everyone was so nice to Jax in the Begining, only for him to repay them for it by bring a complete asshole to all of them.

[@whittadeandkendra2772]

I want hug Jax.

[@Bennett-wj9vg]

Great video. It's actually a theory of mine that Jax has been there for years. Like, since in his possible early to mid teens. Maybe mid-14 or early 16 years old. And that's why he is such an asshole, as he pretty much has been growing up there and has little to no reason to try to leave, as he is more accustomed to the digital circus. It irritates him to be aware of this and always has to fear abstraction, and people always mopping around him and looking at the glass half empty. It would be an interesting concept, at least.

[@ClaireSoelberg-op8id]

I like that theory, and I think it’s supported by the fact that Jax is 22 when Pomni arrives. As a very young adult, he already been there since his mid-teenage years.

[@Makememesandmore]

This is so wholesome! :)

[@Chekrz]

It's kinda funny how before the pilot of tadc came out, people just started to call me Jax and I just stuck with it and now everyone calls me bunny boy after tadc pilot 😭

[@Kingergoingcrazy]

For the title:he didn’t use the name machine he chose it himself

[@Alfy-kl5vr]

Doesn't it makes more sense that the pun "Jax rabbit" (like jackrabbit) is what prompted the name?

[@MalachiReds]

I like this comic but the order I think of is 1.Kinger 2.Zooble 3.Ragatha 4.Jax 5.Gangle 6.Pomni

[@terra4822]

Actually, Gooseworx confirmed it's this: Kinger Ragatha Jax Gangle Zooble Pomni

[@kierangaming8549]

I figured he’s called Jax cause it sounds like Jack a-

[@KatPlayz1023]

I imagine that Jax remembers his human name having “Jax” itself in it so he just went with that

[@PoinsettiaPuppets2.0]

But the theme song say "Jaxler"

[@Who_is_Isabela]

Fax sense since that gambling machine with letters has 5 letters so it wouldn't make sense for Jax to have that name because it's too short (I'm also crying btw)

[@edenanimates1465]

I want to see how Kinger got his name I like to imagine he chose his name like this “What’s your name, little one” “King eeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrr” “Kinger it is then” “Okay, what was I talking about again”

sad fact. Jax entered the circus when he was 14(from what i heard)

[@FNAFhomie]

AWWW CUTEEE❤

[@hannahlamagna]

Nice ✨

[@Melz_likesMushrooms]

IVE SEEN YOU COMMENT ON EVERY. SINGLE. TADC COMB.

[@Sum1_Q]

I have the theory that the reason Jax and Kinger get on the best and Ragatha can tolerate him while Pomni, Gangle and Zooble hate him. When Jax first arrived he wasn't a jokester (he used that later as a way to cope) Kinger and Ragatha came in BEFORE Jax they got to know the non-jokester him I reckon Jax got his persona by 2008 or 2009 (so before Gangle arrived) but it grew and grew until in 2023 when Pomni arrived thats why we see him at his most prankstery and mean then.

[@SRGFyt]

Finally chose a name, *untitled* ? Damn Caine that's harsh 💀

[@nebulas_number_1_simp]

YES I LOVE IT I JUST LOVE ITTTTTT

[@lucasmatthiessen1570]

I thought what was gonna happen was that Jax wanted his name to be Jack but Caine misheard him and instead called him Jax.
