YO I noticed there’s been a lot of comments here asking where the inspiration for my Gaster design came from and I’d like to take a sec to explain why exactly he looks so different here from the widely accepted interpretation of him! While his overall design and particularly his face does in fact draw from multiple works of analog horror as some may have guessed (not to mention I’m a huge fan of the genre), there’s a bit more at play here as to why he looks so unsettling. This look for Gaster was heavily inspired by the phenomenon of forensic facial reconstruction - basically, whenever a person is unidentified and their face is in some way damaged to a point where it’s difficult to place what they even looked like in life to begin with, there’s a team of people who will “reconstruct” their face with the bits of information about that person they have. The thing is, at least for the most part, these reconstructions look very, very uncanny. In a lot of cases the reconstruction team makes the person’s features look eerily exaggerated and unrealistic, not because they’re bad at their job, but to accentuate the person’s most significant key features so that it’s more likely that someone who knows what happened will see the image and it’ll stick in their mind. This is why Gaster looks so jarring from his more “canon” design if such a thing exists. His features are purposefully warped and distorted, most notably the cracks, his long oval shaped head, and his mouth. Since he’s always shown to be smiling, I gave him weird teeth to really amplify that. I more-so based this design on what Gaster’s most memorable features are rather than being accurate. I thought this design choice would be very fitting given the circumstances of his disappearance and how shrouded in mystery he is, and for the record, this Gaster design isn’t based on any specific facial reconstruction, it’s more along the lines of drawing inspiration from the field in general. And by the looks of the people in the comments it looks like this guy has done a damn good job at getting under people’s skin sooooo… job well done on my part I guess??? LOL So yeah. There is a level of analog horror inspiration behind his uncanny look, but it goes a bit deeper than that. Just to clear things up :P
Big thanks for such a good eerie video... I really like the characters Toby make, and community that brings up they back stories of them telling them in videos with style rather than just retelling.... Is so amazing.

@@neptardus6970 the joker card was never meant to be a part of the game, and spams are just something we always delete since their annoying. What these 2 have in common is that they're always underlooked, forgotten and even discarded because they're considered useless.
I straight up feel bad for Spamton, his story is that of a failing salesman who tried to make it big, got desperate, found some one to help him *-[[At A pRiCe]],-* lost his friends, and after losing the thing helping him… _lost everything…_
I think his story is extremely tragic... He simply was too ambitious for the world he was in: but I have to say he did one mistake. One fatal mistake. He listened to the voice, but he didn't comprehend it. His ears were deaf by his own ambition, and ultimately became mad... After all, who wouldn't want to become a [Big Shot]?
@@commenteroftruth9790 yes he would have tho? he became a bigshot, then his friends left out of jealousy. if they didnt, when gaster dissapeared hed still have friends and wouldnt have gone mad
In a way jevils backstory is also disturbing imagen a great friend who helpd you so much just said: its all a lie everything is meaningless life is game why why why that black and white man he told me the truth the truth is all a lie right? Right? Hahah... Hahahahhaahhhah you know none of my choices matter anyway i can do anything anything anything im im free but.... Hahhhahhahahahahahha I CAN DO ANYTHING I CAN DO ANYTHING I CAN DO ANYTHING HAHAHAHHHHAHAH A spree of death was reported all with scythe like wounds wich look like one of jevils props he used while on a show with you you see him again hes carriying a scythe? The next week you are forced to trap him his last words before the prison cell is shut are: ITS A LIE LIE BE FREE BY BELIVING IN THE WHITE WITH CRACKS ON HIS FACE HE ONLY HOLDS TRUTH TRUTH these words haut you... is he telling truth? You will never *know*
for anyone wondering, i believe the voice being used here is SAM, it was a voice synthesizer for the commodore 64 this is mostly a guess on my part ((i only recognized the voices tone) but i hope it helps !!
1:04 Honestly spamton had terrible “Friends” He deserved it because he tried hard for his work. Then abandoning him because he got popular was down right wrong, and the fact they can’t see that makes it worse.
"He deserved it because he tried hard for his work", I mean... Did he? He took a shortcut by making a 'deal with the devil', and in the long run... Such things never have happy endings. Not to sound like a christian or a capitalist or anything, but within the story the whole thing is that the person behind the calls was the one making him popular- not his own work.
@@BE-fw1lr They said he tried hard for a long time, but couldn't make sales no matter how desperate he got. He was most likely in poverty. Got to the point where he'd do anything to get clicks from the Lightners. So yeah, he put in TONS of effort... But like so many of us, hard work isn't always rewarded, you also need luck. Sure, it became easy after he made the deal... But he only did it because nothing else was working. & then as we saw, when in his own words, he "tried to see too far", perhaps trying to find out how the system worked (in the theorized lyrics in "BIG SHOT", "Tell me what you're really selling!")... The support left. He continued trying & trying, but once again, he couldn't do it on his own. & now, we find him having to work hard every day just to survive, reduced to digging through trash & trying to make items to sell out of scraps, his twisted mind fogging his reality so he could barely comprehend what he was saying or doing... But he STILL never gave up. Kept trying to get to the basement & get the NEO body, his only chance of escape. Disguises, trying to hire the rebels, then taking any opportunity we provide with our actions (good or evil). He was tenacious beyond the point that most people would've given up...

@@БогданКрименюк I typed my reply before I saw that comment so my bad, but he did also say that it was inspired by some ARG’s in that comment too, so it was a little of both
Weren't these just the advertiser NPCs from the City? They shouldn't be there after defeating him. Not to mention that after you go back before defeating Spamton they all say they don't want to talk about Spamton. Maybe the [dead] was his way of saying they are dead to him for abandoning him?
I don’t think spamton went insane because gaster left him. My personal theory is that after a few months of talking to gaster spamton realised that gaster was literally controlling him( as in he realised that there were literal strings attached to him) and then tried to escape said control by cutting contact with gaster.( I’m going of the fact that there is a ringing phone in his shop and that it might be gaster trying to reach him) but this led to him ofc having nobody to help him and therefore going bankrupt. he probably realised that there was no way he could break his strings and I think he went mad trying to find a way to break out of gasters control.
I would love a dark, scary and horrifying spin off game where you play as all the people who were taken by Gaster. Also, I really hope Gaster looks like that in the game. It's amazing. It's so fucking mind fucking and terrifying...
We got so jalouis we stopped hanging out with him, i mean hé was a big shot now... Hé did not need us anymore.. right? Ooef... That's really emotionally painful to Hear
I love this weird design for "The Knight", playing off the Mysterious Man from Undertale (that many including myself believe to be Gaster), however it's far enough from that to be different, in a way. It feels more... Natural for this odd being or person to not exactly BE what we may depict as Gaster, however it's not too farfetched to think that the being is at least some Deltarune-version of them. I love it! It's fucking disturbing, corrupted, and just super fucking original. There's so much personality to this whole comic too as a whole- I just love it all!
Not to spoil too much, but we know who the knight is now, so I think we can safely say who in the story we assume to be Gaster is not the same as The Knight.
1:55 The fact that W.D. Gaster is responsible for twisting Spamton and Jevil's minds (or coding in this case) is very dark and creepy and makes me believe he's finally going to appear in the game at some point.
I have hyperfixated on deltarune (again) and for some reason, I always and I mean ALWAYS gravitate towards the characters that have in some shape or form, interacted with Gaster. Not sure why, but I love Jevil and Spamton with all my heart. I've made an OC many friends of mine love that is inspired by Jevils design, I even made a small headcanon that my OC (His name is Peppy), is half-related to Jevil and will follow his footsteps into madness as time passes. This made me love Spamton even more than I already do though
to peppy, you are gaster in a ironic way. peppy is your puppet in this world, both kris and spamton would relate a lot because they are in the same condition. without you, peppy will drop and never get back up...until gaster takes control of peppy and becomes another secret boss.
This is absolutely incredible! I'm at a loss for words, the voice fits so so so well and the cut offs are so unsettling, the way you drew gaster is absolutely straight up horrofying i love everything about this you did a great job capturing the atmosphere! Your artstyle fits it well too!
An idea I've had recently is, actually, what if the 'person' on the other end of the phone, as well as the thing that talked to Jevil, is 'The Player'. Toby's games, and especially episode 2, play a damn lot with the idea of The Player as a seperate entity, voicing their commands to the characters. Maybe through The Player, Jevil realised he is in a game, and through the actions of The Player, Spamton became a big shot. Then 'The Player' stopped playing, and Spamton lost their influence, through which his success decayed. As players of games, our goals are often to 'win' in games, so it makes sense that that is the influence a Player would have on Spamton. Also, we can't forget his words about strings and being a puppet towards Kris, in how they are similar in that regard. The strings are pulled by The Player.
I honestly thought this was by Martin Walls for a moment, because it just has that aesthetic... Of course, that's not to brush off that the artist did an INCREDIBLE job. ...I guess what gave me that impression was... ...Gaster's face. _EXTREMLY_ His face. _It unsettle me on a primal level._ *_...Specifically the Eyes._*
it feels to me like once Spamton got help from 'mike', he left him like as if 'mike' was doing his part like they made a deal or somthing, and once 'mike' was done helping, Spamton had to pay his part of the deal...
This got creepier as this went on then at the end I suddenly got chills down my spine and goosebumps This must've been what kris was feeling and whenever he checked his phone
@@JunkedLowTep the chances of gaster being the final boss is slim to none. Knowing Toby's style of story and lore-building I think he'd rather keep gasters existence extremely minimal. Saying that gaster is the reason for %90 of anything in deltarune happens feels like reaching. People also seem to forget Toby is a memer and likes to subvert expectations, so it's probably not gaster (although mike's probably going to be some sort of influence in the story, whether it'd be that smile on the TV at the end of chapter 2 or as a secret boss, but that's just my guess)
@@JunkedLowTep Better idea, YOU, are the final boss, like Spamton says, “strong enough to break your own strings” as in the player controlling them. Boom.
@@itsyourpardner "garbage noise"dude kris describes the noise on his phone in the dark world garbage noise and there was a phone in spamton's shop too it seems gaster has something to do with phones since in undertale too
It’s not confirmed to be gaster but the music is still fitting. Still I wonder who would even be responsible for that. Both Jevil and Spamton are referenced to having Met someone who helped them realize something or ‘their own potential’ or their goals. Theoretically that’s the Knight but the Knight is also confirmed to have spoken with the King and Queen. So then it must have to do with the sealed door then right? Where else could a mysterious lightener hell bent on destroying the world be
i saw this via it being linked on the og comic on tumblr! An amazing comic and seeing in this format is even cooler! Definitely one of my favorite deltarune things!
I got so mad when I saw this in my feed because I saw it on tumblr like. an hour before I saw this video and I was like "MAN PEOPLE ARE ALREADY REPOSTING ART ?? 😭" I cannot begin to tell you how relieved I was when I realized you uploaded your own work omg
holy sh*t this is scary- Amazing comic! this is the first one i've seen so far- I don't expect it to get super duper big again and have a whole bunch of them, so i'm trying to keep track of any CH2 dubs and such
I absolutely LOVE this edited version of his music. The sudden increases and decreases in speed just feel like they'd be a really good theme to throw you off.
0:33whats the name/source of this slowed down version of dialtone?It sounds very depressing and I like it.Could you perhaps upload the whole song?Great video!
this is amazing, i was right away drawn to spamton in chapter 2 such a tragic and for me in a way relatable character, i spend all my time making things that no one sees my hard work never pays off, granted i dont think id be desperate enough to call gaster but i know what that feelings like to work so hard and to have nothing come from it.
I really like the way you drew Gaster, it more accurately represents him and his role in the story. It's also creepier, much creepier than a few cracks and a smile.
I feel like Spamton’s story is more tragic than Jevil’s. Jevil went mad because he learned the world is a fake, a fraud. However Spamton was in the big league, on his high horse for so long, until suddenly nothing, and we meet him in a dumpster and his shop is near a bunch of trash. He went from a big shot, too just plain tragedy.
That look Spamton has in the right panel at 0:52. The look of self assurance, to know he wasn't a failure, probably meant the world to him. Only makes more tragic to know what Gaster did to him afterwards....
This is honestly a really well done video. I love the art style, it combined with the voice type used, ends up making it a lot creepier. I'm not sure what to call this art style- but its really fascinating to look at. Well done!
Wow, this is really great!! The voice is absolutely perfect for the tone of the comic, and the art style is equally fitting. I just think you made some really awesome artistic choices here! Good job!

@@neptardus6970 the joker card was never meant to be a part of the game, and spams are just something we always delete since their annoying. What these 2 have in common is that they're always underlooked, forgotten and even discarded because they're considered useless.
I straight up feel bad for Spamton, his story is that of a failing salesman who tried to make it big, got desperate, found some one to help him *-[[At A pRiCe]],-* lost his friends, and after losing the thing helping him… _lost everything…_
Which TTS app did he used?
Never make a [[ deal or no deal ]] with a fallen [[ Angel ]]
I think his story is extremely tragic...
He simply was too ambitious for the world he was in: but I have to say he did one mistake. One fatal mistake.
He listened to the voice, but he didn't comprehend it. His ears were deaf by his own ambition, and ultimately became mad...
After all, who wouldn't want to become a [Big Shot]?
Dang, that’s *D E E P*
spamtons decent could have been prevented if his friends didnt leave him if you ask me
@@TheMarioBBB yeah, he also wouldnt have become a [BIG SHOT].
@@commenteroftruth9790 yes he would have tho? he became a bigshot, then his friends left out of jealousy. if they didnt, when gaster dissapeared hed still have friends and wouldnt have gone mad
@@TheMarioBBB but then he will become insane because of ... strings....
God, the way Gaster is portrayed in this comic is so creepy, yet it feels really fitting somehow.
2:14 i got chills listening to that part. this is SO SO SO SO SO VERY WELL DONE. This might be kne of the best comic dubs I have EVER listened to.
jevil's story:
gaster: your world is a game lol
jevil: *OH* Insanity time
SPAMTON's story:
d i s t u r b i n g
In a way jevils backstory is also disturbing imagen a great friend who helpd you so much just said: its all a lie everything is meaningless life is game why why why that black and white man he told me the truth the truth is all a lie right? Right? Hahah...
Hahahahhaahhhah you know none of my choices matter anyway i can do anything anything anything im im free but....
Hahhhahhahahahahahha I CAN DO ANYTHING I CAN DO ANYTHING I CAN DO ANYTHING HAHAHAHHHHAHAH
A spree of death was reported all with scythe like wounds wich look like one of jevils props he used while on a show with you you see him again hes carriying a scythe?
The next week you are forced to trap him his last words before the prison cell is shut are: ITS A LIE LIE BE FREE BY BELIVING IN THE WHITE WITH CRACKS ON HIS FACE HE ONLY HOLDS TRUTH TRUTH these words haut you... is he telling truth? You will never *know*
Jevil believes that he will always have freedom
Spamton is desperate for any amount freedom
for anyone wondering, i believe the voice being used here is SAM, it was a voice synthesizer for the commodore 64
this is mostly a guess on my part ((i only recognized the voices tone) but i hope it helps !!
yeah!! thanks I know it was an older computer but I'll look into this model
The voice sounded like the one used in faith, so it would make sense the way that this was made.
I love the voice
@@morganann8203 Thank god it wasn't just me who found the voice familiar

Honestly spamton had terrible “Friends” He deserved it because he tried hard for his work. Then abandoning him because he got popular was down right wrong, and the fact they can’t see that makes it worse.
"He deserved it because he tried hard for his work", I mean... Did he? He took a shortcut by making a 'deal with the devil', and in the long run... Such things never have happy endings.
Not to sound like a christian or a capitalist or anything, but within the story the whole thing is that the person behind the calls was the one making him popular- not his own work.
@@BE-fw1lr They said he tried hard for a long time, but couldn't make sales no matter how desperate he got. He was most likely in poverty. Got to the point where he'd do anything to get clicks from the Lightners. So yeah, he put in TONS of effort... But like so many of us, hard work isn't always rewarded, you also need luck.
Sure, it became easy after he made the deal... But he only did it because nothing else was working. & then as we saw, when in his own words, he "tried to see too far", perhaps trying to find out how the system worked (in the theorized lyrics in "BIG SHOT", "Tell me what you're really selling!")... The support left. He continued trying & trying, but once again, he couldn't do it on his own.
& now, we find him having to work hard every day just to survive, reduced to digging through trash & trying to make items to sell out of scraps, his twisted mind fogging his reality so he could barely comprehend what he was saying or doing... But he STILL never gave up. Kept trying to get to the basement & get the NEO body, his only chance of escape. Disguises, trying to hire the rebels, then taking any opportunity we provide with our actions (good or evil).
He was tenacious beyond the point that most people would've given up...
@@TheGrammarNazi123 I am neither.

2:22 a garbage noise is exactly what Kris says when he uses the phone in the dark realm and Gaster's theme happens Kris calls Gaster's theme a garbage sound
I don’t see how Spamton would have been a bigshot for dealing his goods to Bon’s Burgers.
Guess I'm not the only one who thought of the Walten Files when I first saw Gaster, huh?
Gaster’s design definitely took some inspiration from Martin Walls art style. Not a bad thing because the Walten Files is really creepy, so it fits
@@yourlocalnerd5981 THE HELL DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH WALTEN FILES ??? The author literally says he was inspired by Forensic Facial Reconstruction
@@БогданКрименюк I typed my reply before I saw that comment so my bad, but he did also say that it was inspired by some ARG’s in that comment too, so it was a little of both
@@yourlocalnerd5981 Gaster design was way before Walten Files
Spamton said that everyone he knew was already dead at the same period he started to live in a dumpster.
*You were talking to dead people.*
Weren't these just the advertiser NPCs from the City? They shouldn't be there after defeating him. Not to mention that after you go back before defeating Spamton they all say they don't want to talk about Spamton.
Maybe the [dead] was his way of saying they are dead to him for abandoning him?
@@vaimantobe3034 It seems odd that the advertisers would tell a story to the player instead of advertise as usual.
@. Iirc, they were just facing the opposite direction
@@vaimantobe3034 Except they had no faces.
@@spazzey0 they do the same stuff in Undertale with the monsters telling you about the fallen child
I don’t think spamton went insane because gaster left him. My personal theory is that after a few months of talking to gaster spamton realised that gaster was literally controlling him( as in he realised that there were literal strings attached to him) and then tried to escape said control by cutting contact with gaster.( I’m going of the fact that there is a ringing phone in his shop and that it might be gaster trying to reach him) but this led to him ofc having nobody to help him and therefore going bankrupt. he probably realised that there was no way he could break his strings and I think he went mad trying to find a way to break out of gasters control.
This checks out
I would love a dark, scary and horrifying spin off game where you play as all the people who were taken by Gaster. Also, I really hope Gaster looks like that in the game. It's amazing. It's so fucking mind fucking and terrifying...
Fun fact: in 1997, there was a big commercial for a soda called “Big Shot,” by a man named “Mike”…… do what you will with that info
I like how in this portrayal, Gaster looks like something you'd see in The Walten Files.
I was just thinking that
Yea that,s was the first thing I thought of
I blocked that game out of my mind but you made me remember it again lmao
It's isn't even a game lol

Ooef... That's really emotionally painful to Hear
The french autocorrect, hateable
I love this weird design for "The Knight", playing off the Mysterious Man from Undertale (that many including myself believe to be Gaster), however it's far enough from that to be different, in a way. It feels more... Natural for this odd being or person to not exactly BE what we may depict as Gaster, however it's not too farfetched to think that the being is at least some Deltarune-version of them. I love it! It's fucking disturbing, corrupted, and just super fucking original.
There's so much personality to this whole comic too as a whole-
I just love it all!
Not to spoil too much, but we know who the knight is now, so I think we can safely say who in the story we assume to be Gaster is not the same as The Knight.
I'm sorry but the second chapter have pretty much already revealed that Kris is the Knight
I think you better change this before people start thinking that gaster, who may not even exist, is the knight.
@@daplague7810 no he definitely exists
I came here to say that Gaster kinda looks like an Ectonurite.
1:55 The fact that W.D. Gaster is responsible for twisting Spamton and Jevil's minds (or coding in this case) is very dark and creepy and makes me believe he's finally going to appear in the game at some point.
this is spot on incredible for a comic, the very Gaster we all know gives off that whole walten files feel, impressive
Atleast Walten files is scary, gaster is scary but also not
I have hyperfixated on deltarune (again) and for some reason, I always and I mean ALWAYS gravitate towards the characters that have in some shape or form, interacted with Gaster. Not sure why, but I love Jevil and Spamton with all my heart. I've made an OC many friends of mine love that is inspired by Jevils design, I even made a small headcanon that my OC (His name is Peppy), is half-related to Jevil and will follow his footsteps into madness as time passes. This made me love Spamton even more than I already do though
You soon will found HIM and become insane...
to peppy, you are gaster in a ironic way.
peppy is your puppet in this world, both kris and spamton would relate a lot because they are in the same condition.
without you, peppy will drop and never get back up...until gaster takes control of peppy and becomes another secret boss.
@@jorgenitales412 he says thats a lot of words but thank you for creeping him out in a cool way
This is absolutely incredible! I'm at a loss for words, the voice fits so so so well and the cut offs are so unsettling, the way you drew gaster is absolutely straight up horrofying i love everything about this you did a great job capturing the atmosphere! Your artstyle fits it well too!
An idea I've had recently is, actually, what if the 'person' on the other end of the phone, as well as the thing that talked to Jevil, is 'The Player'. Toby's games, and especially episode 2, play a damn lot with the idea of The Player as a seperate entity, voicing their commands to the characters. Maybe through The Player, Jevil realised he is in a game, and through the actions of The Player, Spamton became a big shot. Then 'The Player' stopped playing, and Spamton lost their influence, through which his success decayed. As players of games, our goals are often to 'win' in games, so it makes sense that that is the influence a Player would have on Spamton. Also, we can't forget his words about strings and being a puppet towards Kris, in how they are similar in that regard. The strings are pulled by The Player.
I honestly thought this was by Martin Walls for a moment, because it just has that aesthetic...
Of course, that's not to brush off that the artist did an INCREDIBLE job.
...I guess what gave me that impression was...
...Gaster's face.
_EXTREMLY_ His face.
_It unsettle me on a primal level._
*_...Specifically the Eyes._*
same! the weird distorted face is something right out of a martin walls video. gave me the shivers!
Relatively sure that they actually used one of the showstopper's eyes in the gaster character here!
it feels to me like once Spamton got help from 'mike', he left him like as if 'mike' was doing his part like they made a deal or somthing, and once 'mike' was done helping,
Spamton had to pay his part of the deal...
AHHHHH!!!! This is so good, actually getting chills holy shit
This got creepier as this went on then at the end I suddenly got chills down my spine and goosebumps
This must've been what kris was feeling and whenever he checked his phone
Spamtons story is so f###### disturbing
He acts so jolly yet so cracked and desperate at the same time
Damn
I feel sorry for him
This really puts a lot more insight on spamtom's character lore, amazing video
Great illustrations, you deserve an award!
Not theirs.
I mean, wasn't he a big shot?
He didn't need us anymore..
_Did he?_
Honestly the robotic voice over makes this so much better. All the slowed down lower pitch bits were amazingly creepy and unsettling to me. Great job!
1:18
That transition has earned you a subscriber
Spooky. I think he made a deal with Gaster that somehow backfired him.
I don’t think Gaster has anything to do with this, there is little to nothing connecting him to these events other than just “maybe”
@@JunkedLowTep the chances of gaster being the final boss is slim to none. Knowing Toby's style of story and lore-building I think he'd rather keep gasters existence extremely minimal. Saying that gaster is the reason for %90 of anything in deltarune happens feels like reaching. People also seem to forget Toby is a memer and likes to subvert expectations, so it's probably not gaster (although mike's probably going to be some sort of influence in the story, whether it'd be that smile on the TV at the end of chapter 2 or as a secret boss, but that's just my guess)
@@itsyourpardner Garbage noise. Hands.
@@JunkedLowTep Better idea, YOU, are the final boss, like Spamton says, “strong enough to break your own strings” as in the player controlling them. Boom.
@@itsyourpardner "garbage noise"dude kris describes the noise on his phone in the dark world garbage noise and there was a phone in spamton's shop too it seems gaster has something to do with phones since in undertale too
It’s not confirmed to be gaster but the music is still fitting. Still I wonder who would even be responsible for that. Both Jevil and Spamton are referenced to having Met someone who helped them realize something or ‘their own potential’ or their goals. Theoretically that’s the Knight but the Knight is also confirmed to have spoken with the King and Queen. So then it must have to do with the sealed door then right? Where else could a mysterious lightener hell bent on destroying the world be
@@joacooy8754 Still, it’s not 100% confirmed
i saw this via it being linked on the og comic on tumblr! An amazing comic and seeing in this format is even cooler! Definitely one of my favorite deltarune things!
I got so mad when I saw this in my feed because I saw it on tumblr like. an hour before I saw this video and I was like "MAN PEOPLE ARE ALREADY REPOSTING ART ?? 😭" I cannot begin to tell you how relieved I was when I realized you uploaded your own work omg
THERE WAS NOTHING

Amazing comic! this is the first one i've seen so far-
I don't expect it to get super duper big again and have a whole bunch of them,
so i'm trying to keep track of any CH2 dubs and such
I absolutely LOVE this edited version of his music.
The sudden increases and decreases in speed just feel like they'd be a really good theme to throw you off.
This is amazing, also genuinely heartbreaking and terrifying.
I'm glad I happened to find this dialogue my run of the chapter.
Chills down my spine from the reading of that last line... Thanks for making Gaster scary to me again!
0:33whats the name/source of this slowed down version of dialtone?It sounds very depressing and I like it.Could you perhaps upload the whole song?Great video!
This is actually so good omg!
this is amazing, i was right away drawn to spamton in chapter 2 such a tragic and for me in a way relatable character, i spend all my time making things that no one sees my hard work never pays off, granted i dont think id be desperate enough to call gaster but i know what that feelings like to work so hard and to have nothing come from it.
Nice job putting pictures to words, definitely hits hard just like when they were telling the player in the game. 👍
2:21 this gave me goosebumps
When you make a deal with the Devil...there's always a price...
And poor Spamton learned that the hard way...
I really like the way you drew Gaster, it more accurately represents him and his role in the story. It's also creepier, much creepier than a few cracks and a smile.
Wooooah, this is super good! Great job!
I come back to watch this every once and a while, it's so good
This is [[Great]] you deserve to be a [[Big Shot]]! Spamton will always have a place in our [[Heart Shaped Object]].
This deserves way more views that it currently has. Such a creative and disturbing take on his backstory, fantastic work
Wow, 4.73K subscribers, Relopro? You’re starting to really become a BIG SHOT!
I feel like Spamton’s story is more tragic than Jevil’s. Jevil went mad because he learned the world is a fake, a fraud. However Spamton was in the big league, on his high horse for so long, until suddenly nothing, and we meet him in a dumpster and his shop is near a bunch of trash. He went from a big shot, too just plain tragedy.
Wow, this feels very unsettling and really fits well with Spamton's mysterious backstory. :D
The Gaster design looks really cool too.
Amazing Work!
In the dark world you either cut yourself free and go insane or you stop resisting the strings and go insane
I just noticed that Spamtons friends are in the colours of the human souls in Undertale
Alright, this has to be one of my favorite deltarune chapter 2 videos. The Gaster parts are so creepy, and the overall gaster design is. Great video
That look Spamton has in the right panel at 0:52. The look of self assurance, to know he wasn't a failure, probably meant the world to him. Only makes more tragic to know what Gaster did to him afterwards....
1:18 the music timing
this actually looks official
It doesn't.
Still quite good, though.
I love how horrifying that Gaster looks. Absolutely gastly.
I watch this everyday. I cannot stop watching this.. It's so beautiful..
Jesus christ this just hits a lot harder from the delivery and the visuals, this is so well done.
Gaster:i got a friend called mike he has some "Kromers"
Spamton:Good can i have his num-
Gaster:MIKE OXLONG
Spamton: **Falls and dies**
This is honestly a really well done video. I love the art style, it combined with the voice type used, ends up making it a lot creepier. I'm not sure what to call this art style- but its really fascinating to look at. Well done!
this is extremely well done. the atmosphere is perfect and i love your designs
Martin Walls Gaster isn't real, he can't hurt you.
Martin Walls Gaster:
Wow, this is really great!! The voice is absolutely perfect for the tone of the comic, and the art style is equally fitting. I just think you made some really awesome artistic choices here! Good job!
The ending feels like a camping story
The design of Gaster gives me [big] Walten Files vibes.
