I think it'd also work well as graffiti

Melissa Smits

Mar-bear knows Michealangelo

Melissa Smits

This is a 100% accurate take on Michelangelo.

Laurie Voss

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.

Greg R.

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

Ami

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

Todd Ellner

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

Nicolas Demers

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.

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.

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)

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

Steve DeGroof

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.

Sean

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

Granite

Freberg was a genius!

Mark

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

Lucas Werkmeister

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

Bagge

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.

Nulgar

Capitalism?

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?

Lucas Werkmeister

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

Professor Harmless

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

Yelling Bird

Beeps already has the skills to QA test it

Shane Wegner

It would obviously be called BurgerYoni™!!!

Shane Wegner

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

Dylan T

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

Nicolas Demers

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

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.

Matthew Foweraker

Now you’ve done it. #catboysistine

Mitch Megaw

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

Todd Ellner

And she's being coerced by May!

So accurate

dragonkittyrawr

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.

Sleepy John

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

Maugrim

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.

Daniel S

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.

Alex Borders

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

Yelling Bird

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

Zach Elwyn

Catboy Sistine Chapel would rule tho

Fart Captor

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

Jaron Mortimer

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

Chas Simmons

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

Matt Grayson

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

JD

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

Nutjob

Michelangelo not Michaelangelo

Jon Delfin

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

Anthony Gaglianese

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

Uniquitous

Right next to the Sistine Chapel

"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.

MercuryBuddha

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

Absynthe

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

Mortimer Langford

The Pietà, but it's Sonic and Knuckles.

Dean Reilly

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

TwoRavens

Cowabunga!!!

Bartley J Drood

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

Miyaa

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

Michael Boettger

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

AKOD

Hisstine chapel?

Edward Clayton Andrews

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

Chris Weigert

Some artist has probably already done this.

Miyaa

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

I want to see catboy sistene chapel

god mood

Tamara Macadam

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

Lord Crusade

They're not wrong.

Yonatan Zunger

Been on hrt three months may is goals

Hope
