Anyone a fan of this rising webtoon. If not, visit http://www.geoweasel.com and http://www.geoweasel.org for more information. All I have to say is:

Don't eat the marshmallows!

I watched the first episode and I thought it was really funny. I'm going to watch more soon.

It's a great website. I've only seen the first few toons, but who knows? It could be the next big thing.

Eh, it's all right. Not as good as H*R or Bonus Stage, but still good.

I know the creator from DeviantART. He's a great flash animator and works really hard on this; it shows. Funny, funny stuff.

It's almost as good as H*R and Waterman, and ten times better than Bonus stage will ever be. I like it.

That's what you said about Bonus Stage...

I don't like GEOWeasel. It's boring and stupid.

Actually, BS is Ten Times better than Waterman.

Bonus Stage actually influenced the cartoon, and the creator is a fan. Seriuosly, what episode did you see of BS? Either Cursive Written Script or Kamp Keen, just watch episode 75.

What?

I think you're saying that I said Bonus Stage isn't as good as H*R, which it isn't. What I ment was GEOweasel is the worst of the three.

For me GEOweasel is up there with Homestar Runner and Bonus Stage. The lack of updates is a downer, though, but I'm sure Niko has other things on his mind.

GEOWeasal is my second favorite webtoon, first being HR obviously. Nikko can be very funny.

It's about on par with Waterman for me. Meaning, some moments are pure gold, but many are sub-par. It shows potential, and I think it can only get better.

This is one of the webtoons that I watch. Of course, I don't visit it often these days, y'know, since updates are rare. But at least the episodes are still good. And there's the fact that Niko's just a teenager. As for Waterman...

Anyway, who thinks that the new designs for season 2 kind of... suck? I mean, the outlines do look thicker, but they look scribbled. In fact, the characters look scribbled instead of kind of more realistic, unlike season 1! And that's the same for the backgrounds! Also, I wish that season 2 has a real opening instead of a portion from the first intro.

Ah, good. Someone bumped it. Now I don't have to :)

GEOWeasel seems very promising, seeing as the creator is as young as he is. The fact that it's already funny NOW means it will become lucicriously funny in, say, half a year or so.

Much, much, *insert a billion much's here* funnier then Bonus Stage.

Perhaps the season two designs are easier for Niko to draw and animate.

Well, kind of. Theyre hand drawn, which makes them animated. He doesnt use the crap that he drew before fo a model he could use. So, the designs are now built by scratch.

Yeah, when I watched Eppissode 8 then 9, I thought "WHy'd he change the designs??" but I've gotten used to them. According to the GW Forum, Hardcore gaming was supposed to come 11 dcays ago, maybe it'll come tomorrow.. he usually updtaes on Mondays I've heard.

Used to be Tuesdays.


Niko says he kicks himself for not releasing the episode. He said maybe Thursday.

He's trying to go back to weekly.

Okay, whoever thinks Bonus Stage is funny is partially correct. A lot of what makes Bonus Stage funn i their obscure references to pop cultire items, like TV Shows or Video Games, and not necessarily from characters or sutuations. But still, don't say it sucks unless you have watched all 75 episodes and can then say, truthfully, that not one made you laugh once.

GEOweasel is good, but the fact that its not regularly updated is a real drawback to me. My only constellation is that he usually updates his dA page frequently, so I can still keep in touch wih the GEOweasel world.

And whoever likes the Season 1 designs better is just weird. They are crappy and too obviously shape based, as well as being blatant ripoffs of the early Bonus Stage chracter design. The hand-drawn characters have a much cooler look to them, and add an extra dimension to the cartoon.

Oh, man. I just noticed a hidden reference to the Aquabats! in episode 9. That adds like a million extra points to the coolness scale.

Yesterday was the annerverserary(sp!) of the first Geoweasel flash. EVER. And to celebrate that, Niko made this little exclusive.

That was really good. I loved the "Xbox has no good games" joke. "Get to work on that Wiki!" was cool too. I guess that Niko, like TBC, likes the Wikis.

I also like how GEOweasel uses the same type of animation as Bonus Stage.

Hilarious, although, really, honestly, not as funny as Digital Infection. Still, the XBOX joke was awesome and, well, a lot of other elelments were really good. I never seem to be satisfied with any of the GW endings, though, and this was no excpetion.

Still, despite faults, it was really good. Great comeback!
