Since Beerus got fucked by Goku and Vegeta at once in that Scenario, it seemed right that Broly would be his partner for the follow-up. When these two interact in fan content, it’s usually in the context of Beerus cucking Broly, I believe. While I’m down for that, and I’ve drawn Beerus with Cheelai before, I thought a different dynamic might be fun to explore here.
So Corey and Loren don’t really have much in common. Even within the Applebridge canon they’re removed by the tax brackets of their parents, plus Corey’s like three or four years older than Loren. Still, I thought there could be some fun in highlighting how different they are, especially since Corey recently made acquaintances with someone who’s way more Loren’s type. As for Corey’s partner here, I couldn’t think of anyone tied to Loren who would fit (unfortunately Loren doesn’t have a grandma or anything who’s been introduced), so I instead partnered him with someone I’ve meant to pair him with for a while but never had a good chance to.
I didn’t realize this until working on this Ask, but this is actually Chi-Chi’s first Ask since the Patreon days. She’s appeared in other people’s Asks since then, but hasn’t had a question directed just at her answered in some time.
The exact ages might be a little off, if they’re even officially confirmed, but I believe the version of Chi-Chi she defaults to in the Studio is older than we ever see Gine get to be. I think that makes sense, at least, and I thought it might affect their dynamic in the Studio. I’ve alluded to Chi-Chi being more interested in her family getting to know Goku’s parents than Goku is, and I thought it’d be cute if this little quirk of their ages lead to her viewing her mother-in-law in a unique way.
Last year we started a new Halloween tradition of a highlight comic set in the Studio Halloween party. Like last year, our randomly-selected costume model, Space Beth, takes the center panel while we check in around the party with the rest. I know some characters who appear here may be hard to place, especially in the glory hole panel, and I imagine some will only be identifiable through the tags in the public post. I’m pretty happy with how this comic turned out, and I hope y’all will enjoy seeing some of the Studio residents enjoying the spooky season.
