(jokes aside, DCC is genuinely one of the best series I've read in a very long time.
The premise is super dark. 99.99% of the world's population is dead by chapter 1, and the rest are forced to battle it out in a "world dungeon game show" for the universe's entertainment. And the whole dungeon is run by a sadistic AI that turns up the crazy to 11 for views.
It's funny, and the humor gives way for the emotional gut punches to hit harder.
In terms of literary value, it's got some political commentary, and makes some incredibly based statements about the late stage capitalist hellscape we live in, but they're pretty obvious and not any kind of deep symbolism.
It's a popcorn action movie about a guy in his underwear and his ex girlfriend's cat. It's great.)
WE CATS DO LOVE OUR DRAMA
OP MUST BE A NEW CAT OWNER, BECAUSE THAT'S CAT OWNERSHIP 101, JUST LIKE WITH CARL AND HIS PANCAKE FIASCO THAT ENDED WITH HIM IN THE HOSPITAL.
I'M STILL NOT SORRY ABOUT THAT BY THE WAY 💜
I, PRINCESS DONUT THE QUEEN ANNE CHONK, CERTIFY THIS AS THE BEST DEAN POST.
I MEAN I STILL HATE HIM FOR OBVIOUS REASONS BUT HE'S FROM THE BEST SHOW EVER SO IT ALL EVENS OUT.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!
WHY WOULD THE PRINCESS POSSE BUY SUCH A USELESS PLANET?!
CAT'S CAN'T EVEN LIVE THERE.
I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT I BLAME CARL FOR THIS. IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING HE'D COME UP WITH. I MEAN REALLY.
EXCUSE ME I AM RIGHT HERE
ANYWAY ITS RIDICULOUS HOW MUCH CARL LOVES THAT THING. HE SHOULD'VE PICKED THE MOTORCYCLE.
BRB DELETING MY ACCOUNT BECAUSE I CANT HAVE FOLLOWERS ON HERE, GOODBYE EVERYBODY
(certain clients will let you tag accounts fwiw)
I LOVE PREPOTENTE AS MUCH AS THE NEXT CRAWLER BUT THAT CLASS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE EITHER
THAT SHOULD BE IN FIRST PLACE, ITS THE BEST CLASS OBVIOUSLY, BECAUSE IT'S MINE 💜
I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT A "COMPENSATED ANARCHIST" IS ANYWAY, IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!
I AM YELLING CARL
CARL THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!
I CANT BELIEVE THEY WOULD DO THIS
THERE'S A PICTURE OF A CAT ON IT SO IT ABSOLUTELY MUST BE TRUE!
THANK YOU SO MUCH CHRIS CARLSON THAT IS A WONDERFUL RENDITION OF ME
MONGO LOOK SOMEONE MADE ART OF US ISN'T IT JUST ADORABLE?
I ALWAYS TELL CARL HOW MANY FANS HE HAS, BUT HE ALWAYS SEEMS TOO BUSY IN THE BATHROOM OR HIS SAPPER'S TABLE.
IT'S WEIRD. HE ALWAYS SEEMS TO GO DIRECTLY FROM ONE TO THE OTHER.
I THINK HE HAS BOWEL PROBLEMS.
THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU ARE TOO KIND
::: spoiler Book 8 THAT SNAKE BITCH HAD IT COMING. I WISH IT WAS MORE THAN A VERBAL BEAT-DOWN BUT I WAS OUTSIDE OF THE ENHANCEMENT ZONE.
ALSO ALL THAT UNAUTHORIZED MERCHANDISE WAS OBSCENE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY KEEP USING PICTURES OF MY BUTT LIKE THAT. MONGO IS APPALLED. :::
(Please mark spoilers thank you 💜)
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE
THIS INSULT TO MY CATHOOD CANNOT STAND
I BET YOU'RE A DOG YOURSELF
OR WORSE
A COCKER SPANIEL
CARL'S FRIEND SAM USED TO LISTEN TO SOME REALLY LOUD MUSIC LIKE THIS.
I NEVER LIKED IT.
WONDERWALL WAS ALWAYS MY FAVORITE.
EVERYONE SHOULD SING TO THEIR CATS. MISS BEATRICE DID IT FOR ME AND LOOK HOW I TURNED OUT
OBVIOUSLY ITS GREAT, I'M THE MAIN CHARACTER

CATS ARE THE SUPERIOR SPECIES
ESPECIALLY TORTISESHELL PERSIANS LIKE MYSELF
