Please only comment with ONE hidden detail or reference!
There is ONE Loss, ONE Balthazar, ONE crewmate and NO JoJo reference. Bonus panels don't count.
1: It's not referencing her origin per se, but I'll count it, Sebastian L. Isabelle is using a Nook Phone in this comic (the phone you get in Animal Crossing New Horizons).
2: Balthazar is very subtly hidden this week: he's visible on screen of the phone that Isabelle is holding in the first panel. Glad you found him, Noah.
3: You probably got that feeling because I tried my very best to make this reference obvious, Shelby Kinkead! Isabelle's reaction to Knuckle's voice is indeed referencing Idris Elba who voices Knuckles in the Sonic movie.
4: No idea why I added that tongue on the monitor in the third panel, Chj92.
5: I have no idea CSDX, I haven't played Sonic 06 (or any Sonic for that matter), but yeah, apparently Sonic gets revived by a kiss from a girl in Sonic 06, which is what Tails is alluding to!
6: Both Isabelles are oogling Knuckles in the fourth and sixth panels, but he doesn't seem to realize what's happening, And3rs_.
7: Hehehe yes, the flies circling dead Sonic are indeed forming Loss, Tejayes.
8: King Dedede has a cute little phone case with Bandana Waddle Dee on it. Thanks for noticing this cute detail, Generic Hero.
9: The book in the seventh panel says "Maidens and Where to Find Them", which is both a reference to the title of the comic and the fact that everyone calls you maidenless in Elden Ring, Trigger!
10: I had to use those posters to hammer home the fact that Hewg (the smithing guy) loves smithing, Jon Brouse. I had to make sure that even non-Elden Ring players would understand what happened. And yeah, among the posters are a "commissions open" poster (found by Cameron Devera), to further explain that Dedede commissioned 100 rings with him, and a "sure sex is nice, but have you ever tried SMITHING" poster (found by Daniel Myhre).
11: This week's crewmate... or rather crewmates, are found on the Hewg's anvil! Good catch, VisionPlayer22!
12: Yay, glad someone noticed this, Zach! I intentionally put Bayonetta in the last panel because both her and Sonic are SEGA characters!
13: And correct Phloxiana, in the final panel, Peach is glad she didn't have to kiss dead Sonic.
