"A Cry For Help" by Gerald DeJesus
August 31st, 2010 by GabeThis is it, the definitive end to Big Pants Mouse. I saved Jerry's masterpiece as the final final final Big Pants. Why? Because it's all there. Like us all, Jerry has always had a soft spot in his heart for this little mouse, but unlike the rest of us, Jerry's heart is quite different.
Jerry is an amazing artist. You have seen his work and you didn't even know it!

My friend Tony introduced Jerry to me at a Carl's Jr. in '99. Tony wanted me to put in a good word for Jerry at Spumco. He was amazing, and we hired him for his flash expertise, but unbeknownst to me, I already "knew" Jerry.
See, some of us guys at Spumco had this contest called the "Ace Card". We would find the nastiest filthiest videos online and share them as our "ace card". Tony always seemed to have a HUGE amount of videos and would usually always win. But those times changed when Jerry started at Spumco. Jerry was Tony's secret supplier of depravity. If I would have known this, I would have told our boss that we needed to hire Jerry on his filth finding abilities alone!
Since then, I think I've worked with Jerry on every flash project I've done, including the Big Pants Mouse pilot at Disney. He is an amazing art director, bg designer, painter, animator, and all around great guy. Thanks for the final word Jerry, you put the final nail in Big Pant's coffin.
Thank you all for all the support over the years. Here's to the end of Big Pants and the start of Life In The Analog Age next week!










(1) Have Skadi make a deal with Some Guy Who's Not Exactly Satan to reboot her timeline.
(2) Pay Geoff Johns to waste approximately six hundred pages tweaking and fudging and using time travel to fix all the continuity errors that have accumulated since the strip's birth, making room for even more horrific ones.
(3) Have annual house-cleaning "events" in which Skadi-Prime beheads or snaps the necks of less-popular Dumm characters, and then the multiverse merges/explodes/gets replaced by hyper-time/becomes multi again/whatever/poop/poooooooooop.
Skadi already ate Bush Beast in the past comics. Even marked it off her list. If she had done so before, why mark it off again?
As far as eating his parents, I mean, that could work out. She could have thrown him off a cliff and then later, bought him without realizing it.
You can accept Skadi eating two entire human-sized creatures and staying thin, so there's no reason you can't damn well accept a few plot inconsistencies.
Baby Diseasoid is adorable. Plushy? with little stink lines and flies attached by thin clear plastic?
The Plop. So classic.
Love it. And right, if she threw him off the cliff, and that's the end of that, then they could cross paths some other way. Also, STFU. I see Skadi as more episodic than as part of some big continuous epic storyline. I don't feel the compulsion for continuity. It's like asking for continuity from Popeye. Who cares? Enjoy it for what it is.
also diseasoid has the worst luck, damn
I mean "she'd". Curse my broken-English keyboard.
Maumauf and Paupau are adorable words.
Also, about continuity, she isn't shown crossing it off her list here, she could easily have forgotten, hahaha!
i pretty much blanked out when he came toddling in
