<p>No doubt, some of our observant readers will notice that our Skadi and Diseasoid origin stories contradict some of our older comics (three, at least).  Hopefully this won&#8217;t bother too many people!  While keeping continuity is important, it&#8217;s unavoidable for characters to develop more and more as we keep making comics, despite the ideas we may have had for them in the beginning.</p>
<p>But&#8230;for the hardcore types who demand continuity, here are some &#8220;justifications&#8221;:</p>
<p>- In &#8220;The Ballad of Skadi Part 1&#8243;, where Skadi leaves her village happily as an adult&#8230;that&#8217;s just an idealization from her point of view&#8230;why dwell on sad things of the past?</p>
<p>- In &#8220;On Bushbeasts&#8221;, where Skadi is seen buying Diseasoid from the slavetrade&#8230;well, they&#8217;d already met&#8230;he was, uh, kidnapped by traders, and Skadi was merely taking him back.  Judging by Diseasoid&#8217;s scared expression, he was obviously trying to lay low and blend in with the other miserable half-dead slaves to avoid being Skadi&#8217;s &#8220;friend&#8221; again.</p>
<p>- And in &#8220;Food #4&#8243;, where Skadi crosses &#8220;bushbeasts&#8221; off her &#8220;meat to eat&#8221; list, well we all know she isn&#8217;t all that bright of a girl.  That list probably has a lot of repeats and mistakes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes, after his failed go at animation development at Cartoon Network, he&#8217;s back to bother us at Dumm!</p>
<p>You hear that Yergabick, yes, you bother us!</p>
<p>You see, he went to CN with an &#8220;adult&#8221; show and by the time the development was done his show &#8220;Rumpus: Junior High Pig&#8221; skewed too young for the adult show they wanted.</p>
<p>Now he&#8217;s back and causing all kinds of behind the scenes drama here at Dumm. In the last 4 weeks we&#8217;ve gotten into more fights than we have since we started. Turning Dumms against each other, hurting the site, and even stinking up all our meetings! Yeah Yergabick, you stink!</p>
<p>So please&#8230;I know we&#8217;re legally obligated to air his strips, but if everyone hates them, maybe he&#8217;ll leave us alone forever. Maybe even kill himself? We&#8217;re crossing all our fingers!</p>
<p>Please someone help us!</p>
