If I had a nickle for every kid that got drafted into an intergalactic war against their will, I'd have four nickles, which isn't a lot but its weird that it happened four times, right? ||=||=||=||=|| The official Tumblr for the webcomic Superastral, a remake of the children's cartoon Supernoobs ||=||=||=||=|| Status: WIP
Ever wonder "damn I wonder what it would be like if a bunch of 9th graders got drafted into a space militia against their will?"
No??
Well too damn bad lemme introduce you to Superastral! A rewrite of the hit 2015 cartoon Supernoobs, and an up and coming webcomic thats currently in the works. Superastral looks at concepts laid out by its predecessor and says "damn, that's crazy. Wonder how I can make this more traumatic and serious"
Everything's coming a bit slowly cause it is currently a one man team, but it's definitely coming. Slowly but surely. Keep a look out for leaks and lore drops, and I'm so excited to be able to finally share the new designs with you guys. Mem and Zen will be coming very soon!
Sorry I'm asking anonymously (I'm fucking terrified of people)
But uhm in your rewrite, does Kevin still have that barely implied one-sided crush on Shope? It was something I enjoyed from the original series because I liked the fact that Shope never had a crush on anyone but someone had a crush on her. It was really cute to me.
Uhmm yeah that's all
Hey! Thanks so much for the question, I love answering them and it's always a joy to know that someone's interested enough in my story to ask in the first place :]
I've never been the biggest fan of it in the show tbh, but it's incredibly funny and I'm not gonna lie it did end up slipping into the story a bit. It's more of like, a past thing they both joke about? I'm kind of imagining it as a "yeah I had a crush on you and we dated for a week in middle school but we're still thick as thieves" type situation.
I got a lot of ideas in mind for these guys that I'm not sure how to talk about publicly without both completely spamming the tag AND spoiling things that I'm very excited to show over time, but it's very much an active project!
Hey, I am just thinking about "Should I show to them" feeling. But I want to show and Voala!
Here is my redesign for you. It's not finalize yet very awesome!
And oh, I forgot that I mentioned that when I send you a link.
I hope you enjoy my designs for Superastrals for you.😊👍
THIS IS INCREDIBLE??? OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS, THIS IS SO CUTE I'M ACTUALLY A LITTLE SPEECHLESS BUT IN AN INCREDIBLY POSITIVE WAY. YOUR ARTS SO MUCH FUN I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
I love the little details in here! The differences you made to the designs is so fun but I can absolutely see the intention you put behind each choice and its amazing. I also love how you made Zenithyr more of a sea creature visibly, and Memjumdan more bird like to highlight their contrasting personalities even more! This is all so amazing oh my GOD
Thank you so much for showing me!!! Im absolutely in love with it, and I'd love to see anything else you work on as well
Dancefest has finally wrapped up after a hell of a journey, and I wanted to celebrate with a piece based on one of my favorite scenes later in the story when the three try skateboarding for the first time! I love the mental image of Rebeccas journey from horse girl to potential skater girl. Looking forward and excited to see more Josh Carter and where his story takes him!

Superastrals gonna have a ton of ocs, since there aren't a lot of canon characters to work with, and this one's gonna be p important later in the story
Those of you who have been around for a while might just remember back when I did fanfiction, and if you do, you might remember the story of my Supernoobs OC Josh Carter, the aspiring social butterfly, future superstar and reluctant superhero whose life was getting way more complicated these days...
Back towards the end of 2019, I was really starting to lose steam with him; the inspiration I had for him was really starting to wane, especially given the fandom seemed to peter out and my previous partner-in-angst-crime Pumpkin (@whynotzoidbergdotorg) moved on to other creations. I've definitely missed creating fandom work over the past few years, but between not really finding anything to grab my attention in the same way and a series of setbacks in my life (not to mention the grind of growing my YouTube channel), things just happened to fall by the wayside.
But it seems I wasn't posting into the void after all! Josh and his story left a huge impact on the small but surprisingly resilient Supernoobs fandom, and over the past few months I've been pulled back in, thanks especially to @ghostlyapivorous' @superastral-official and @jaspydunks' @noobs-rewritten. So much so, that I've been re-motivated to return and at least continue (I don't think I should be presumptuous and suggest "finish") Josh's story. In addition to a few unreleased chapters from the original run, I've been working on continuing the story, and I've almost gotten to the end of Dancefest, where we originally left off.
We'll be picking up from there soon, but it didn't seem fully right to go back to using the old 2016 designs of our main cast — my artistic workflow has completely changed since then. So, it was time to give them all a glow-up. The primary goal was mainly to get them looking closer to the show's style, though I've also taken the opportunity to resolve a few longstanding annoyances with some of the characters and change some things up. Despite not being part of the main cast, I also decided to do an image for Zoey, given she's a pretty recurrent character in the series. Just like the first time around, expect to see new art of these kids in the future (though I don't think I'll spin up @joshcartersblog again).
Look out for the continuation of Josh's story very soon, but in the meantime, catch up on how Josh got here:
A Future Super-Something, the first story: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Perfect Disasters, the second story: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Over and Out, the third story: 1 & 2 3 4 5
Diamonds on the Rebound, the fourth story
Reminiscence, the fifth story
A Hero’s Prelude, the sixth story: 1 2 3
Dancefest, the seventh story (so far)
Text versions of everyone's descriptions under the cut.
Josh Carter
Josh Carter has only one goal in mind: becoming one of the popular kids. Enamored with fame and starry-eyed about celebrity, he's chasing the top of the Cornbury Middle School food chain with the help of his friends. Clever, ambitious, and seemingly carefree, he'll stop at nothing in his quest to rise to the top without losing himself, while making plenty of buzz along the way.
…But will something bigger and more destructive than the current popular clique or a mortifying social mishap stop him in his tracks?

The Yellow Superdude
As elusive as he is mysterious, the Yellow Superdude is the newest addition to Cornbury's local team of intergalactic virus warriors. But he doesn't seem too happy about having the opportunity of a lifetime; honestly, it seems like he doesn't get along with the other four at all. With the heroes already building local recognition and facing even bigger battles, can he ever become the hero the Earth needs — and does he even want to?
Alias: ???
Powers: Energy blasts, stretchy body, shapeshifting, possibly more if he ever actually went to training
Always has messy hair for some reason
Simon Parker
Josh's best friend since forever, Simon is the realist of the group. As much an inventive strategist as an easygoing wingman, Simon's a true ride-or-die in Josh's popularity adventures, turbocharging their social game while keeping his starstruck bro down-to-earth. They've been there for each other even in their lowest moments, including Simon's brutally public one last year. It's a trust that makes Simon unafraid to be honest with Josh. But despite all this, is Josh keeping a super-sized secret from him?

Rebecca Hewitt
Rebecca is a punchy wildcard who's garnered her own notoriety. Since stumbling into Josh's high-flying life in sixth grade, she's been looking to find herself somewhere in the many aesthetics Josh's influencer adventures bring into her world. Rough around the edges but fun at heart, she's not one to mess with, but worth having in your corner.

Zoey Miller
Zoey is the intrepid reporter behind The Cornbury Hound Dog, Cornbury Middle School's unofficial school news blog. Zoey can be eager and persistent to a fault, the perfect attitude for hunting the next big story. She keeps up on all the gossip around the halls — especially Josh's ambitious search for teenage stardom. Totally not because she has a crush on him or anything…
Horrifically ashamed at how long this took me. Tyler's face is kinda putting me off but I didn't know how else to fit his big ass glasses onto his face
Hello SPNBS fans! Let me introduce you to my new AU, Noobs Rewritten!
This AU takes the story of the show in a whole different direction. All of the characters have new designs, slightly different personalities, and different relationships! This AU also introduces one or two new characters I created 👀
So if you’re interested, stick around and I hope you enjoy it!
