Sign in to edit

This page describes content which, while legally created, was not licensed by the Walt Disney Company. The Pessimist's Guide to the Small Screen is a comic strip written and drawn by Aristide Twain. It features two members of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, one of them being Pessimist-242.

Description[]

A Cupid is surprised to see Pessimist-242 seemingly watching television… on a TV that's not actually plugged in. It's clear that the mechanical cynic's comically bitter worldview is responsible somehow, but in what way, exactly?

Behind the scenes[]

This comic strip, the sixth regular comic-strip to feature the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, was released on the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids website.
