I think it'd also work well as graffiti

Melissa Smits

Mar-bear knows Michealangelo

Laurie Voss

This is a 100% accurate take on Michelangelo.

Greg R.

So... can we say May is the id to Marigold's ego? Base, disgusting, lousy impulse control, but also the source of the survival instinct? And Momo would be the superego.

Ami

Holy crap, yes! Michelangelo would be talking so much smack and getting banned for the fights he'd start

Todd Ellner

She isn't stupid and realizes this is not a viable long term career. That means making the most of what you have.

Nicolas Demers

This is the thing: the great masters of the Renaissance weren't necessarily doing it For The Art, they were doing it for the $$$. Especially the Sistine Chapel, which I think Michelangelo hated doing? The Pope was a stingy bastard, the work conditions were terrible, and his heart was really in sculpture, not painting

Captain Button

Like he did over "The Last Supper"? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9Aj7W3g1qo

To all the people wondering why she'd want to push for more money: streaming is a hell of a stressful job. You can't really take more than a rare vacation, and content has to come out every. Single. Day. Burnout is inevitable. Sure, she's got tons of cash *now*, but she'll almost certainly retire young. If she doesn't want to have to pick up a new career after, best make the nest egg sizable.

Douglas E. Smith

If Marigold is making so much money already that she needs May as a manager and Hanners as an accountant, does she really need to shill merch? I feel May is leading her down a dark path. That said, "Nothin' ventured, nothin' jizzed in," is a perfect summary of, I'm gonna guess, 90% of business endeavors.

Ísabel Pirsic

Apparently, he’d rather have dogboys: “It is said that the great Italian sculptor and painter Michelangelo owned a Pomeranian, and the dog would sit on a satin pillow while he watched him paint the Sistine Chapel” (https://dogs-in-history.blogspot.com/2020/05/michelangelos-pomeranian.html)

Steve DeGroof

Fully expecting to see fan art of Burger Oni shilling ALL THE THINGS.

Sean

Ah, reminds me of the scene in the movie where he's haggling with the pope, who interrupts him with "Michelangelo Buonarroti would you bargain with your pontiff?" all peeved, before accepting the next offer. Such a funny scene.

Granite

What's the over/under of one of your French fans printing this out and taping it up in the Louvre somewhere?

Mark

Freberg was a genius!

Lucas Werkmeister

we've seen her: https://www.patreon.com/posts/burger-oni-49680337

Bagge

And then he would draw furry porn... wait, I feel that topic has already been brought up in this comic

Nulgar

We haven't seen Burger Oni yet, right? Getting more curios each strip...

Nulgar

*adds a zero to the pricetag of his artworks*

Nulgar

Don't kinkshame.

Capitalism?

Lucas Werkmeister

This whole arc started with Marigold having more money than she knows what to do with, why would she need or want to sell out?

Professor Harmless

Not the Louvre. Some place else though. It is going be weird looking at this comment in 500 years.

Yelling Bird

LEWD ART? YOU DON'T HAVE TO IMAGINE THAT! HALF OF HIS CAREER WAS PAINTING NAKED DUDES!

Shane Wegner

Beeps already has the skills to QA test it

Shane Wegner

It would obviously be called BurgerYoni™!!!

Dylan T

The thought of Michaelangelo picking fights with Twitter randos and drawing lewd art is...amusing

Nicolas Demers

Unless May is confusing the artist with the turtle. She wouldn't be the only one!

Damnit man, I don't speak Italian. And where are the gesticulation emojis?

doorbender

Babida boopee?

Leonardo da Vinci meanwhile have eight different YouTube channels three different patrons and for ongoing kickstart as all of which being various stages of hiatus.

Mitch Megaw

Now you’ve done it. #catboysistine

Todd Ellner

Way, way back in 1956 Stan Freberg gave us the ultimate statement on artistic integrity and commerce. Right around 2:10 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hDDnAbBwQaM

And she's being coerced by May!

dragonkittyrawr

So accurate

Sleepy John

Michelangelo was a sculptor who kept trying to get the Pope off his back so he could stop painting crap and get back to the marbles. Didn't work. The Pope could pay.

Maugrim

What about a combination fleshlight with a monster drink holder on the other end. Dont mix them up!

Daniel S

Michelangelo was a dude trying to make a living. He ABSOLUTELY would have been sitting in a gamer chair pounding energy drinks if he could have been.

Alex Borders

I feel absolutely confident that, at some point, some fan has worn a QC t-shirt in the Louvre. So, Jeph's art has, in fact, been displayed in the Louvre.

Yelling Bird

"NOTHING VENTURED NOTHING JIZZED IN" IS MY FAMILY MOTTO!

Zach Elwyn

Tell you what, next time I’m in Paris I’ll gladly tape up a copy of this strip and take a picture for you

Fart Captor

Catboy Sistine Chapel would rule tho

Jaron Mortimer

Marigold entering the confusing but ultimately necessary world of shilling. This comment brought to you by RAID: Shadow Legends.

Chas Simmons

Michelangelo was pretty much coerced by the Pope. Not a great analogy on May's part.

Matt Grayson

I’m wearing Faye’s Bear monster shirt right now, so getting kick etc.

JD

If she really wants to be moral about this, she can only do ads for products she actually likes.

Nutjob

Wait. He's dead? RIP in peace Best Turtle

Jon Delfin

Michelangelo not Michaelangelo

Anthony Gaglianese

The funniest thing is, that last line.....she's not wrong in any way.

If I lived in France I'd already be in the car

Uniquitous

Jizztine

Ann M

Right next to the Sistine Chapel

MercuryBuddha

"this comic will hang in the Louvre one day" Okay, someone needs to print this comic out and send Jeph a pic of it hanging in the Louvre.

Absynthe

If Michelangelo were alive right now, he'd be hanging with Lil NasX

Mortimer Langford

*Reading last panel...* Speaking from experience there, Jeph? Lol

Dean Reilly

The Pietà, but it's Sonic and Knuckles.

TwoRavens

Not only would they be catboys, they would be very flamboyant catboys.

Bartley J Drood

Cowabunga!!!

Miyaa

“Nothing ventured; nothing jizzed in” sounds suspiciously like something Yelling Bird would say. Hmm…

Michael Boettger

May may be onto something there. Imagine your favorite, say, comic strip, sold t-shirts and prints and coffee mugs. Oh wait.

AKOD

As Lorde would say: In the back but hey, still the Louvre.

Edward Clayton Andrews

Hisstine chapel?

Chris Weigert

Renaissance Patron Cath’lic artists, artists who don’t bow down, artist power!

Miyaa

Some artist has probably already done this.

I'd take my vtubers doing product placement over sponsored streams for Raid: Shadow Legends any day.

I want to see catboy sistene chapel

Tamara Macadam

god mood

Lord Crusade

By the laws of the multiverse, its already is hanging there

Yonatan Zunger

They're not wrong.

Hope

Been on hrt three months may is goals

Peter McDevitt

nah; Raphael would be the one picking fights with people. Michaelangelo is a party dude.
