Cleaning up misuse per the TRS thread. Big Name Fan (now Fandom VIP) refers to a fan who is popular within the fandom, not a celebrity who also happens to be a fan.

** The ''WesternAnimation/{{Ben 10}}'' crew are fans too, and sent Malachai a signed ''Ben 10'' poster as a birthday gift (he's a fan). Very awesome.
** A staff member from ''Series/TheITCrowd'' asked for a copy of the CHOP poster to [[http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4560601&id=271045833946 place on the set]].

Transferring and adding some What Could Have Been

Added DiffLines:

** Annotations on comics, appendices in the book collections, and discussions on the [[http://www.nlcast.com/category/chop/ "Chop!"]] podcasts reveal planned ideas that didn't make it into the finished comics. Some of these ideas are [[RefittedForSequel Refitted]] for later comics or even [[WesternAnimation/AxeCop the TV show]], since Ethan worked with the writing team, and Malachai was consulted on the occasional teleconference with them. (Zombie Island would have been just a regular island until Malachai said that it should be in space, and so the animators had to partially redo the episode.)
*** For instance, ''Bad Guy Earth'' was going to include a character called the Scare King until Ethan decided it was too derivative of a [[Advertising/TheBurgerKing Burger King]] game. Yet come the TV episode "An American Story", the King of England was actually styled after the Burger King!
*** The behind-the-scenes discussion that led to [[http://axecop.com/comic/ask-axe-cop-13/ Axe Cop turning aliens evil to justify killing them]] became the script for the ending of "No More Bad Guys".
*** Axe Cop's [[HurtingHero oddly somber discussion on how he'll never be happy]] was revealed by Ethan to have been taken from an unfinished "Ask Axe Cop" comic.

Added DiffLines:

* WordOfSaintPaul: The entire comic can be considered this, as the artwork is Ethan's interpretation of [[WordOfGod Malachai's]] universe. Ethan has mentioned in interviews how often he learns afterward what he draws fails to match what the young Malachai envisioned due to either being too vague or having difficulty expressing his ideas.
