Decided to do some more art in this style, which is a good excuse to draw some of my favorite comic cats :3

Characters are Suncat from @jumalanpelko ,Thresher and Auklet from @whatlurksbean , Firespots from @the-exiled-comic, Runnelfish from @our-clangen , Canary from @wavesalwayscrash , and Lycan from @lifeordeathcomic (rip Lycan ig 🥲 probably)!

Does thresher have ANY redeeming qualities or is he just a cartoon villain?

I don’t consider him a cartoon villain, but I don’t think that means he has redemptive qualities either.

He loves his family and he wants to protect The Family from starvation, these are his best traits, these things do not redeem him.

He is cruel, but his cruelty is not his motivation. He is using the Daisys as his scapegoat for the famine he helped contribute to. He’s not drowning kittens for the fun of it, he is trying to balance his contributions to the problem.

Thresher is full of self loathing for his actions, we see his thoughts about it multiple times. But he is selfish, and he will do evil things without blinking if it means the famine won’t wipe out The Family.

I dont think he started at 100% at hating the Daisys. I think once he realized he could scapegoat them he leaned progressively harder and harder into calling them heretics and taking out his frustrations on them. He needs everyone else to see them as the problem to justify himself, and I think he’s been doing this so dutifully that he has convinced himself of their wickedness.

His actions have been ramping up from his first chapter. His home is dying. He knows he largely contributed. And he can’t fix it. So he does the easiest thing; he blames a group of cats who don’t really have the means to defend themselves from his vitriol. He takes his frustrations out on cats he can win against. He tries to manipulate other cats into seeing them as the problem.

I also think evil can often just look cartoonish from the outside, and thresher does not have super relatable problems. But people with power often use it to be unfathomably cruel, especially if they have something to gain by doing so.

#answers #thresher #i do see where he comes off as cartoonish #but i think its largely a result of the persona he’s spent the past year leaning into #and you do something enough it becomes part of you #I think rereading the chapters with his internal monologues or conversations with sturgeon or auklet give good insight on him #there is more to explore about him #I should make him twirl a mustache and laugh next time he kills a cat #its 5am and i cant sleep hope this is coherent

thresher is out! and as expected we were all wrong and, far from being untrustworthy, Hercules is probably the most honest person on the Thresher team so far, save maybe Val.

which also means at high risk of death in a candela obscura system. i'm nervous for next week, y'all, not gonna lie. this is what i love about short runs and the candela system in particular -- the stakes are always high and any character can croak pretty much any time.

anyway, the more heroic tone post-launch called for a leyendecker-/robert mcginnis-style book cover take; though with the release of the official art I'll have to attempt a few others with longer hair.
