Ok since the toon turf/shorts wars fandom is kinda divided on the fact that Preston has been hinted to be alive in danno’s recent short, here’s my two cents
Danno will not bring Preston back
Him appearing at the end was just confirmation he’s alive (he’s technically in hell but still)/just a fun cameo
And here’s why I think that
1. The other RPK members
Reminder, danno was not the only one behind shorts wars, so many other people were too, so while I understand that it’s possible they could’ve given him permission, I don’t think danno would ruin something his other friends and himself put so much effort on for some simple fan service
2. Danno and the other rpk members have confirmed Preston is not coming back
I saw another post on here summarise this way better than me, @quix0tic3lixer is that person so credit to them, but I think danno just included a simple cameo of Preston, and if he did show up, he obv wouldn’t be central to the plot
3. Danno wouldn’t just ruin the whole ending/our own choices for some dumb fans who can’t get a grip and realise Preston is dead???
Reminder, the court case played out the way it did bc of OUR choices as an audience, the ending is bittersweet and satisfying at the same time. And like I said, sw was worked on by MULTIPLE people
He wouldn’t ruin all of that bc some teenagers were yelling at him on twt over a character
Wanna know why? DANNO IS A GROWN MAN WHO IS NOT GONNA FOLD EASILY TO THOSE REQUESTS, EVEN IF HIS AUDIENCE REALLY WANTED IT
Preston is not coming back plain and simple, he simply just appeared at the end bc of a cameo and he will not be central to the whole ‘riggy in hell’ plot
Danno is not dumb enough to ruin a wonderfully made project bc of some fan service
