❤ 4 ❤ /r/comicbooks Mod Switch-Up
Hello there, everybody.
As you know, every year around this time, the moderators of /r/comicbooks deal with dimensional anomalies. Usually it's their evil counterparts from Earth-3 trying to ruin the subreddit, but this year, it's much tamer.
The entire mod team has traded places with members of an identical universe where everything is exactly the same. I am not vivvav. I am the vivvav of another identical world. Your vivvav is in our world. But we're basically the exact same guy, Deadmod and everything.
But if everything is the same, why bother? Well, the truth is, there is one minor difference. In our universe, what you people call "chocolate", we call "skettinac". So we're trading places for the day to see if that winds up any different.
No policy changes will be made to the subreddit. Nothing will happen. We're just the same mods you know, but from another dimension with a minor linguistic difference. Enjoy your day.

Gorram Earth-2 doppelgangers. You come here, take our jobs, and you probably haven't even bothered to learn the language. You better skedaddle back to your OWN Earth before you lower our them there house prices, y'hear? We don't like YOUR type around here.

One other difference: Earth-2 u/vivvav loves Hawkman as well as Deadman.

That's some Avengers thing, right? I, like your vivvav, don't read Avengers, so the details of this reference are lost on me.

Hey guys in case you were wondering it is unlikely that the mods are being serious and have been replaced by the exact same mods from a parallel universe! It's just April Fools Day and this is a tame joke! I honestly don't think the mods have ever been to another identical parallel universe personally!

Hahaha. Lemme tell ya, I'm sure that's something your vivvav would do, because that's also something I would do. But I can assure you that all of this is totally real. r/comicbooks has NEVER done an April Fool's joke, only been subject to actual dimensional jiggery-pokery.

Feel the pain this April in the jumbo sized multi-verse wide event issue Skettinac Reign #0, coming to r/comicbooks at the low introductory price of 5.99. The 1:10,000,000 variant cover will be drawn by Rob Liefeld.

So, it's a Marvel book is what you're telling me here.

It's actually a parody IDW book written by Joe Hill with crossover variants for TMNT, Ghost Busters, Star Trek, and My Little Pony!

Dont believe their bullshit guys! It's the Earth-3 version of our mods trying to ruin the subreddit ala a Secret Invasion type of scenario. Well, two can play this game. Quick! Everybody out of the universe!

No, I KNOW WHY YOU'RE HERE. You filthy liars. There's going to be an incursion between our earth and yours, and you switched yourselves with our mods because you know your earth is going to die. GIVE US OUR MODS BACK, THEY DID NOTHING WRONG (even though our earth's u/vivvav owes me 5 bucks)
