From Issue 190 to 192, Shmwario hijacked his brother's section, and got his own logo for it!
When Shmaluigi returned in Issue 193, I started using an updated logo. I brought over the font from Shmwario's, which was originally going to just be for him but then I decided the regular Mario font wasn't really cutting it anymore. Felt a little too "wahoo" for Shmaluigi. I also made some updates and tweaks to the detective himself.
Consumer Corner products from Issues 193, 195, and 196. 193 is a rare sighting of Shbig in full color. 195 is technically the proper debut of the new WT emblem, but it was previously used starting in Issue 194 in Waluigi Time Comic, Dear Waluigi Time, and Peddler's Place.
In Issue 194, I did a Peddler's Place for a Shbig desktop buddy. I'm not going to post the whole thing here because it's the whole section and if it's here you won't read it in The 'Shroom, but here's a couple of art pieces for it. An uncharacteristically happy Shbig for the logo, and a much more disinterested one for an "actual" image. I wanted to invoke a 90's/early 2000's feel for this so he's on a Marioized version of Windows XP.
Okay, Issue 195 time! This art was for my one-off (for now) interview section, Bite-Sized Interview, hosted by Count Numberman the Kurokyura. You may be wondering why I made a vampire-themed talk show in the middle of June, and the answer is that I was thinking of late night talk show hosts to spoof the name of and remembered David Letterman exists. So there you go. Also, the silhouette of the bat over the moon is actually the sprite of Kurokyura's bat form.
Sticking with the theme of spooky enemies from the Super Mario Land games, Numberman is accompanied by his announcer Jason the Masked Ghoul (but their Japanese name is J-son and I think that was better) and a Pionpi drummer for rimshots.
A piece of art to accompany MightyMario's story, Movie Mayhem. He only specifically asked for Cayde, Zerris, Pinky and the Brain, and Big Chungus, then me being me I went and filled almost all the seats with other characters, mostly from Palette Swap. I have some regrets
And a second request, Koopa General from the movie for Rose's Challenger Approaching special. Drawn once, recolored seven times! If you want to know more about this you'll have to read the actual section, it's explained there.
