Hi, OP. Per Rule 4, do you know who the artist is? The signature "DK" isn't much to go off of. If you can't find it, that's okay too, as long as you feel you've tried.
Donkey Kong is set in an alternate universe where banana trees reign supreme. No living organisms can consume them, no mould nor bacteria can taint them. They are immortal, unaging. Except monkeys.
Kevin is smiling, so it doesn't seem this is a problem. Honestly, a more abstract vision of something that shouldn't exist would be better than a possessed grandma or a talking dog. That would be disturbing. Best to keep it far outside the uncanny valley.
I also think this isn't truly God, if it's thrown off that Kevin has this kind of preferred appearance. It should probably know that.
Same issuewith "its" and "it's". It's arbitrary when the apostrophe-s is used with other nouns.
"John's house has a cracked foundation."
"The house's foundation is cracked."
"John's house has a crack in it's foundation."
It's perfectly understandable and complaining about it is just being pedantic with no purpose. The Oxford comma is no longer seen as always being necessary because language evolves, and we should be moving that direction with other arbitrary language and spelling rules. If the meaning isn't changed by the presence of the apostrophe, then it doesn't matter whether or not it's there.

Ah, you're right. I just found the artist and will edit to add his info.

Damn I was hoping that Donkey Kong finally gave up his crippling banana addiction and took up drawing comics.

I was watching GrandPoo Bear play Donkey Kong Country and he made a decent point. How do they keep the bananas from going bad?

Whose* (this is intended as constructive criticism)
chiliedogg@lemmy.world · -5 pts · 6d
"Whose" is a stupid word that doesn't deserve to exist. Anything else possessive the "'s" works, and we all understand "Who's".
ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 5d
It’s to distinguish from the contraction that who’s already expands to: “who is”. In this sentence saying “who is” makes no sense.
chiliedogg@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 5d
Do you have an example of a sentence where "who is" would make sense in place of a posessive?
ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 5d
Ya know, I never thought about it that way. No I can’t think of an example.
tal@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 5d
Apostrophe-s isn't always what you'd use for a possessive.
"Its" is the possessive. I took its temperature.
"It's" is a contraction of "it is". It's cold outside.

Same issuewith "its" and "it's". It's arbitrary when the apostrophe-s is used with other nouns.

"Its" is not arbitrary.

Start adding apostrophes before the s and see what happens.
