Cartoons, Crossovers, and more...

Their appearence changed after drastic events in their lifes-Bill after the Euclydian Massacre and Robbie's by entering into teenagehood (he misses his natural hair color)

Both like to mess with the weaker member of their friend group-Thompson and Keyhole

Waddles was needed for their defeats

Both were jelaous partners during their relationships with Ford and Wendy

Both dont like when a member of the Pines family doesn't follow/go along with their "humor"-Dipper warning the gang not to place themselves where the Ma and Pa corpses layed and the whole "joke" of Bill stealing Ford's eyes and just put him through a parade of indignities during puppet hour- both even give them nicknames like Joykiller and Mr. Tabletop Gaming

They ruined their own relationships by their arrogance, negligence and dishonesty.

Both hypnotized someone-Robbie with Wendy by accident and Bill with full intention

Texts after the breakup

Both say they're fine after the break up and over their partners but are clearly not. Robbie just cant get over Wendy while Bill is still obsessed.

Both tried to seduce or have their partner take them back with music and songs but it didn't work

Both use mascara for their eyes.

They are good with music-Both can sing and are shown to play different instruments, Robbie has a band and Bill had a music career booming in the 60s with hits such as Cipher is real but it didn't work well in the long run. Not to mention can play instruments-A Rock Guitar and a piano (and how could we ever forget the xylophone in his apology video)

Stanley dislikes both of them-He doesn't like Robbie flirting with Wendy on work hours plus he doesnt respect Stan that much calling him a dork and Bill is hated by Stan for messing with his family

Both refer to Soos in condescending ways linked to his appearence- The Fat One ("You're a lot more clever than you look. Especially the fat one."/"He called me "Big Dude" once. I mean, I know I'm a big dude, but it kinda hurt.")

Both seem to like tarantulas-Bill's line in his scrapped song Its gonna get weird and the artwork of him having bugs crawl over him and Robbie has one as a pet as seen in Love God

Both are seen or referred to as goth

Both have their own sense of fashion-Bill leans to formal wear whereas Robbie is more emo/goth

Both try new clothes in order to catch their interest's eyes-Robbie via tight jeans whereas Bill considers neccesary to wear a pair of everything to earn your crush attention and uses his uses his seduction hat

Both have beef with 12 year olds; especially Dipper but dont have the same rivalry towards Mabel but that doesn't mean they're nice to her either.

Mabel is one of the few that cared enough to help them-Mabel was the only one who tried to fix Robbie's love problem and in the Book she advises Bill to stop obssessing with Ford and do something else while also warning him not to ever mess with her family ever again.

Both have contact with the dead-Robbies family works in a cementary while Bill can posses corpses and knows more than one way to cheat death.

Both like to draw (Bill's doodles of himself in the book and Robbie secretly draws anime)

Both like to leave their mark in different places usually in red or with whatever material they have like ink or spray paint

Both got turned to stone at one point in Weirdmageddon-Robbie at the start and Bill at the end

Both dont like bringing their parents in conversations-Robbie out of shame and Bill shuts completly the second they're brought up in therapy sessions

[Sponsored by @wizardsandwardrobes, the last of the Princes of Elemental Evil to be covered. Cryonax has always been something of the odd one out, as he's not composed of the four classical D&D elements. As such, he's been left out of 5e's focus on Elemental Evil, only appearing in the semi-canon, PDF only Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy. But on the other hand, his tentacle-yeti appearance is much more creative and interesting than the other four, and he's been allowed to have some particularly grandiose plots over the years. This flavor text builds on his goals from Dragon 347, which synergize nicely with the work I've been doing with the new elemental planes from PF2e. I also took the opportunity to tie some of my older monsters in as worshipers and minions.

Cryonax CR 23 NE Outsider (elemental) This creature resembles a white furred bipedal ape as tall as a house, with jaws that open in both directions. Rather than arms, it has six long tentacles.

Cryonax is the Prince of Evil Cold Creatures, a scheming primordial who seeks to upset the balance of the Elemental Planes. There is no Plane of Cold, only a zone of overlapping influence between Air and Water. But Cryonax hopes to separate from these two planes and form his own separate Plane of Cold, which he then hopes will be able to dominate and rule over all of the other Elemental Planes. He knows this is a difficult goal, but the re-emergence of the Plane of Metal and the Plane of Wood encourages his ambitions by proving that the Elemental Planes are not static.

Although Cryonax often acts aloof and is slow to anger, his cool attitude gives way to icy hate when prompted to combat. Cryonax’s bite inflicts a long lasting paralysis, but most creatures that succumb to it do not live long enough to experience its full duration, as he picks them up in his tentacles and crushes them. If surrounded, Cryonax uses Whirlwind Attack to bite as many foes as he can at once. Weapons that strike Cryonax grow brittle as they are weakened with cold magic—Cryonax will wait for a weapon that can harm him to strike several times and become brittle before he attempts to sunder it. Cryonax has not survived for millennia by risking his life carelessly; he will readily retreat from a combat in order to regenerate and strike again, be it a few minutes after his retreat or decades.

Cryonax rules with frosty malevolence from The Chiseled Estate, a colossal fortress made of ice and glass the size of a mountain, embedded in a glacier that stretches between Air and Water. There, he sends his agents on missions across the planes in search of artifacts that can stretch or break planar boundaries, as well as working to create new frigid monsters to fill his armies. The kilblain is one of his most resounding successes. Cryonax has welcomed the worship of the asen, a species of comet-dwelling fascists who share his goals of freezing the cosmos. Some of the most powerful cults of Cryonax are composed of frost giants and yeti led by an asen prophet.

The secret that's been kept for the past 8 months!

The first 5 episodes of Monkey Wrench are officially coming to NETFLIX on AUGUST 19th!

Fully remastered and re-engineered audio!

New multiple language dubs!

New intro sequence!

I'm sure you're all bound to have lots of questions, so below here's a brief FAQ about this new venture;

FAQ;

Q: When did this happen???

A: Netflix approached us back during the early days of episode 4's production after watching the eps progress. They wanted to congratulate us on reaching ep 3 and commenting on how rapidly we've improved and what motivated us to keep going. They kept an eye on our progress since and once they saw ep 5, they reached out in December 2025 to offer us a licensing deal for the first 5 eps. That deal was cemented in March 2026.

Q: So is this why ep 6 has taken so long?

A: Yes and No. We did have to divert Matt, Ockeroid, Rigsby and myself over to Eps 1-5 to get them up to NETFLIX's broadcast standards which took around 8-12 weeks of non-stop work. However if we didn't take the deal we'd still be in a worse place in terms of ep 6 funding and progress. Most of the licensing money went into getting ep 6 finished this year. Without it, we would be going well into 2027.

Q: Is the new intro sequence gonna be in the eps from now on???

A: Only for the Netflix versions, as they have exclusive rights to it. The regular Youtube / Patreon release will have our usual wrench glass smashy intro still.

Q: Will the Alternate language tracks come over to the Youtube Versions???

A: No, those are exclusive to Netflix.

Q: So this is just a licensing deal?

A: For now, yes! The first 5 eps will be on the NETFLIX service August 19th.

Q: What does that mean for the future? Is there a chance you'll get picked up???

A: The future is still uncertain, but it looks a lot brighter than it did before. NETFLIX allowed us to have promotions to our patreon in the end credits of each episode, something they don't usually do, so people who watch the eps on NETFLIX will have the chance to come over here and support us directly.

As for getting picked up, there is a chance, but it's all at the behest of NETFLIX if the first 5 eps do well on the service.

Q: What would going exclusive mean???

A: Basically, IF we go exclusive, NETFLIX would get exclusive rights to eps 7-10 for season one and beyond. We'd have to suspend the patreon (everything would still be available, there's just be no more updates) and fourthwall store (NETFLIX would get exclusive merch rights) and stop youtube uploads.

If they decide to cancel our exclusivity, then we're back to doing what we are currently doing; using patreon and fourthwall to fund ep production.

Q: What if they want Ep 6 as well to go exclusive???

A: In that scenario we've worked out a plain that those who have supported us financially for it's production will still get to see it on here and for Youtube Members.

Q: Would Eps 1-5 still be free to watch on Youtube?

A: Yes, the original 5 will still available to view on Youtube for freeeee, even if we go exclusive.

Q: So no more fourthwall store if you go exclusive???

A: Yup! NETFLIX gets full merch rights, though we'd get a 35% cut of all sales, so pretty much what it's like now but with someone else managing it which would be a massive load of my already extensive plate of things to do, and with NETFLIX's resources there's be so many more options for neat stuff to be made... vinyl figures for instance~?

Q: I thought you said you didn't want to go with a network / Streaming service? A: I did, but unfortunately times and minds change. We're 6 years into this production and only have (almost) 6 eps done. Our funding isn't growing, merch isn't selling that well and I'm really starting to feel my age. Potentially getting picked up exclusively by NETFLIX will get us Budgets we could only dream of doing it indie, and if it gets this series made before I turn 45, then so be it!

Q: So, when Ep 6???

I made this with clay and painted it.
