Asterikses

## Summary

Asterikses are not an actual reaction, but a small feature in a speech bubble the characters can have. It is very important to refer to other big franchises, or to remind the reader of an earlier Comic's events. It can also be used to reason and explain actions in another Comic before, which gives depth to the reader and suggests if they may have figured this out correctly already. More rarely, asterikses can hint at a newer Comic in release in future, leaving small info about what it may contain to build the hype for the reader.

## Usage

It's usage is to refer to a franchise, an earlier Comic or hint at something for an upcoming one that is yet to come. They are extremely useful when it comes down to condensing the Dankcraft information you would gain from each Comic, explain things and prove whether or not you as a reader may have got something right or not by your speculation. They are very common in Dankcraft, almost appearing in every single Comic of the season so far, as it goes!

## Trivia

-The use of the Asterikses is to relate to other franchises, sometimes even through memorable lines by mostly just Pixl\_Gam3r (as he's the only one who actually of course would know about the real world right? Unless you counted Dropsik due to his inheritance of Pixl's abilities.. this is unconfirmed) referring to these. A big example of what the references are is the MCU, ironically to that, the author really enjoys. (Irony lol)

-As a point of note and contrast to the MCU, the author also hates DC (This a warning here- Anyone who mentions anything the author doesn't like about DC will be promptly kicked off the Wiki-).

-It can refer to past Comics. This makes a lot of sense, as it can explain and summarise things that readers may have missed, therefore teaching you as an audience new things.

-The author is extremely fond of using asterisks's! He really finds them effective plot device that keeps the plot 'moving'. Potentially a dramatic device as well all things considered.

-Asterisks's can be used to refer to future upcoming Comics, which allows to build hype. Also this can hint at things in future, just like the external links, references and hints by the author do as well.

-Asterisk's are used in TONS upon TONS countless other Comic series, meaning it is definitely not a unique or new thing. It would be unfair to say that, furthermore.

-Ironically (god the puns), asterisks are not named as a reaction. Yet they are found in the reactions section.

-They cannot therefore be said to be usable by characters, except for mostly Pixl\_Gam3r and maybe Dropsik (Dropsik's case is still in debate here), although it's still possible that other characters can really use asterisk's, but even though they probably can, it doesn't mean that they know what the context and use of them really is and what it signifies.

-But asterisk's can be said to be in a sense usable by all characters, as they understand they are referencing it, but they do not know what an asterisk is of course, likely the President too but the asterisk is not a reaction, in short (to try not to make you more confused). This means that it makes for this to be another unique reaction, besides the 2/3 Ellipsis.

-Asterisk is therefore a special thing that is still not technically a reaction but is in that section (however, 'Asterisk' may be moved elsewhere soon as good news).
