Only joking, it’s Mortal Wombat - a.k.a. Lozman Pretzel, back to finish what he started a long time ago… And this time:

Firstly, want to say a big shout out to Cecil and his group of minions for keeping this crazy community in check and allowing me the opportunity to pop up in the SD universe like some crazy hippy dude from the past…

Rewind…

Back to the future.

Lozman’s back and he’s here to shoot ye.

Out into cyberspace.

You guy’s remember myspace?

Now we’re talking, now we set the rhythm at the right pace.

Take a little wander - if you wonder - to a little place I like to call

Baker’s been there

Cunctator

and minionkat too

Elendil’s Heir sent em there,

I’ll be there waiting, come and catch me - if you think you can!

Sucking on a kazoo.

Battery’s dying and I gotta meet the h…

Like. totally, mon.

If you can’t grok what the Wom-Bat-Man is arrr-tick-you-lating, you need to suck on that kazoo a bit more. Once the puppet show starts, you’ll dig it.
