Rise fans, listen up

I’ve been actively posting on twitter with the hashtags #rottmnt #supportrottmnt #saverottmnt and #riseofthetmnt to try and get this show more attention, while tagging Nick’s CEO and Netflix.

In about 20 minutes, the Rise fam will raid Twitter with these hashtags and make them trend again. I wish I could be as active here as I am there, but I can’t handle two social medias at the same time, it’s too overwhelming.

However! I’ve come to ask my tumblr followers if you could help us by watching this clip (CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR THE FINALE):

I'm so sorry for you😱 I didn't want to stress you out, I was just curious, that's all. I'M SO SORRY. 😭  😭  😭  😭

We need to talk

I recently posted my latest “The Brains and The Brawn” comic page the other day. I was feeling really awesome about it and got lots of wonderful feedback! It made me feel very happy, and I was happy to finally bring a new page to you!

Then today I got this as a comment on the page:

And beyond this being just very rude, it made me realize that I really need to have a talk with you guys.

Because this isn’t the first time I’ve gotten something to this effect. It may not always have been this rude, but I have gotten dozens of comments of this nature asking something to the effect of “when will we see the next page?”

To reiterate from a section in another post where I talked about this in brief, I really DO NOT like these kinds of asks/comments. They make me feel stressed and ashamed and pressured, which can create negative feelings around my work and make me less likely to finish them. I get that you’re excited, and that’s cool. But literally no one likes those kinds of comments.

First of all, a big reason why I have not given myself a set schedule for my Rise comics is because I did not want the pressure of a consistent deadline at a time when I don’t know if I can hold a deadline. To be perfectly candid, I’ve been recovering from a frankly very mentally stressful scenario, which I do not want to get into here.

Second of all, my recent slow-down in frequency of comics is because I’ve been trying to get my life back in order and get an in-real-life job. I’d been living overseas for the past 6 years, and coming back to my home country amidst a pandemic while also dealing with the previously mentioned mentally stressful scenario has not been easy. I’m also juggling doing my own projects with doing commissions for people, and I will of course prioritize something that I am actually paid to do.

And MOST importantly: I shouldn’t have to provide a reason for the frequency of my updates to begin with!

I’m fine with explaining a little bit about my situation, but not everyone has the means to do so. You don’t know what different people are going through. Myself and other online creatives are often creating content for free, and do not have to answer to someone asking for more content at a pace that may not be reasonable for them. Making comics is hard work! I render everything from the characters to the backgrounds myself, and that takes a lot of time! And that is in between everything going on in my daily life which you don’t see much of because you don’t have any right to!

I make my comics for myself, and I can easily block someone if all they are going to add to my day is some passive aggressive nonsense like this. Unless you are literally paying me through a commission, I do not make art for you. I make it for me.

And because a friend of mine said it so much better, here is a link to some nice guidelines on how to respond to a creative whose work you are excited to see more of without being rude about it.

To repeat, you don’t know what different people are going through. Creatives have lives outside of their online presence. Try to think before you comment and remember that you are talking to a human being, not an art-creating-machine.

AMAZING ART jade 😍

Mikey is SOOO CUTE WITH THIS FASHION ART!!!  🥰

YOU'RE INCREDIBLE JADE!!!! ❤️  ❤️  ❤️  ❤️  ❤️

It’s time that I post some art I did for the @rise-fashion-zine “Style on the Rise”! This is the artwork I did in collaboration with @fanfic-inator795 for her lovely piece involving Mikey’s accessories. These were very fun to do, and I had a great time working with Andrea, who is a wonderful writer and person!

All right. So some of the Rise writers came forwards with information on Rise. 

They planned three seasons of build up for that finale. 

Normally you get 11-12 weeks for one script. They were told to cut 13 and write four finale episodes with 6 weeks on the clock. 

We would have gotten some episodes like:

-Donnie tries to grow a giant pumpkin.

-Ghostbear has a wedding to a new yokai. Raph and Mikey crash it.

-Giant robot dinos that Mikey thinks are cute appear (”boopable snoots” is used).

-Mikey is left the oldest brother when the other three get turned into toddlers.

-The Foot Clan runs a cupcake store.

-Karai remains as some of the main cast for a GOOD while. 

And more. You can check Russ Carney’s Twitter for the actual tweets.

If you want to see these. If you liked the show. Please support Rise. Send requests to Netflix for it, search for it in Netflix to ding their system, use Twitter and all of the support Rise hashtags. Tomorrow at 6 pm est I believe we are going to try and get Rise trending.

#RiseOfTheROTTMNT

Be polite to Nick, email them (feedback@nick.com), but we can’t let them ignore this fandom until we fade away. 

That team was incredible. Don’t let it end here. 

Nick told the crew the show was on “pause.” The initial vibe was “wait-and-see-after-the-movie.” That’s not a no. Glitch Techs did this move. Invader Zim did this move.

Let’s make Rise another success story. 

Rise and fanfics (Recommendations)

Okay y’all, I think a good way to show the care the fanbase has to this iteration is with recommendations of fanfics from this amazing show, so imma post them here in case y’all want something to read after the ending. They’re all under the cut, so let’s go.
