So we were talking about Muppet adaptations of classic literary works; somebody jokingly suggested Neil Gaiman’s Sandman on the grounds that due to the World Fantasy Award fiasco it technically qualifies as literature, and I just can’t get the idea out of my head. If they follow the pattern of previous Muppet adaptations, they’d be obliged to put Kermit the Frog in some prominent role, and every conceivable option is objectively hilarious.

Stated in a reply but I wanted to elaborate here – I like the idea of Kermit as Morpheus. Think about it: He’s a busy showrunner who’s trying to put on a good performance for people, while the rest of his cast and crew are goofballs if not whole morons, and sometimes he’s just as silly as they are. Sandman’s realm is kind of like the Muppet Show except with less humor and more melancholy soul-searching. Kermit would be a great Morpheus. And Miss Piggy could play the role of jilted lover as she often does, because Morpheus always has one of those too. And you could have Statler and Waldorf as Cain and Abel.

That’s horrifying.

I think I love it.

I’ve been stuck with Kermit’s voice saying this in my head all day thanks to these posts.

Perfect.

This month on my patreon! >>Pledge by Jan 31st<< to get in on either a Kermit bunny or a crystal print pillow, cool art prints, and coupons for up to 30% off at my shop, The Stitchy Button! More print items @ redbubble

ALSO! I bought some cute WW stamps and Star Wars valentines for this month’s mail-out so if you’re not already on my mailing list, you wanna be

i’m not locked down on art for this month yet, so if you’re a patreon person,  suggest something you’d like to see!

Okay but instead of shipping the grumpy one with the cinnamon roll, imagine shipping two grumpy ones. Just being salty about fucking everything together all the time. Having the same salty philosophy on life and snickering at other people’s idiocy 24/7.

i mean, okay

I mean are they not a salty old gay couple who go to the theater only to offer scathing criticism and make each other laugh? Like that’s how I’ve always interpreted them. 

Waldorf canonically has a wife, named “Astoria”.  However, since Astoria is just the Statler puppet in drag, this just raises further questions.
