#mighty bug 5

June 7, 2025 - Jason and Madison After Dark:

Since today is Halloween, here a somewhat spooky-drawing (mainly in regards to what they're watching).

As I said in my last doodle about the Mighty Bug 5, I felt that Mighty Bug's real name, Jason, was a bit too predictable in terms of leader names.

As such, I decided to change his civilian name to Mike. As for 'Jason', I've made that the name for his dad.

This drawing has Mike secretly find out what his parents, Jason and Madison, do when he's supposed to be in bed: watch true crime documentaries.

I've even been thinking of headcanon-ing that their love for true crime is how they first met.

Also uh... this headcanon is also inspired by my mother...

My mom is a huge fan of true crime, been one for a few years now. She watches documentaries about it, listens to podcasts about it, stuff like that.

Not only that, but she's even been trying to make Dad a fan of true crime as well.

One evening, when I saw Mom and Dad watching a true crime documentary in the living room, I went to my bedroom and drew this.

I think it pretty much exemplifies the absurdity of this genre.

April 10/11, 2025 - A+ Cake For Sure:

Anyone ever heard of the Mighty Bug 5?

No? Well, let me explain.

It was a series of shorts that aired on the programming block in the mid 2000s, about 5 young superhero bugs solving issues in their town of Yardley.

Two of those bugs are named Jason and Parnell. Jason (aka Mighty Bug) is the team's leader, who has the power to see through walls (assuming that's what his "mighty vision" does), whereas Parnell has the power... to drive.

Okay, I know that last one doesn't sound very impressive, but I like to headcanon that his powers give him the knowledge of how to drive.

Also, I prefer to rename Jason as "Mike". I don't know, I just think Jason is a bit predictable as a leader name.

That's said, I'll still list both names in the tags if you want.

Oh wait, the art. Here's a drawing of Jason/Mike and Parnell (now in their late teens) trying to bake a cake for baking class.

Mike says he has a great way of improving Parnell's work, which ends up going so wrong that the cake somehow catches fire.

But Mike isn't concerned, he thinks that he and Parnells will ace the assignment with this cake for sure.

We'll see about that...

December 27, 2024 - Linda's Loud Habits:

There, NOW my idea for Linda (Invisilizzy's mother) is on-model!

Here is a doodle that shows Linda's habit of shouting aloud about anything that bothers her, much to Lizzy's confusion.

Regarding Lizzy's family tree, she also has an older brother (name TBD). He's a bit of a jock, and my idea for him is somewhat similar to the older brother from Disney's The Buzz on Maggie, Aldrin. Currently, I'm thinking of how to better differentiate my ideas for his design so that he doesn't come off as a direct copy of Aldrin.

December 17, 2024 - Linda's Dream:

Hey guys, anyone ever heard of Nick Jr's Mighty Bug 5?

No? Well, let me explain.

It was a series of shorts that aired on the programming block in the mid 2000s, about 5 young superhero bugs solving issues in their town of Yardley.

One of those bugs is named Lizzy (her superhero name is Invisilizzy), and in this picture above is my idea for her mother (who I've named Linda).

This is meant to be Linda in her college years, dreaming of one day being a mother.

I'm sure this is something that most women desire at some point or another (before they remember all the downsides to being pregnant).

Also, I will admit that this is somewhat off-model, and that my next doodle (which also features Linda) is much closer to the Mighty Bug 5 art style.

Mighty Bug 5!

QnApril - Caroline:

When I said that some of these QnAs would have a simplistic style, I didn’t mean all of them, only some.
