Hey Poptropicans! Amid the somber news of Poptropica going out of business, some diehard fans are keeping the game’s legacy alive through the art of tattoos. Check out these incredible inks below!
Here’s a line-art tattoo of the dragon from the torn picture and manhole cover in Counterfeit Island, created by @lexjjart. So cool!
Next up is a tattoo of Poseidon from Mythology Island! The design was done by @rekitto.inks for their sister, and features a bit of color alongside some grayscale shading, topped off with some sparkles. Nice!

Would you consider getting a Poptropica tattoo, and if so, what design would you go for? If you come across more Pop tatts or get one of your own, we’d love for you to share it with us on our Discord server, the PHC.
Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Magic Kid. Enjoy!
Howdy guys! It’s Magic Kid, again, and I’m back with the second part in my latest fanfiction: Murder at Myron’s! If you have no idea what’s going on, you can read the first part here.
Guys, I am having WAY too much fun writing this, I’d forgotten how satisfactory it was to leave innocent readers on cliffhangers.
Last time I left you guys, you were introduced into a villain get-together dinner party, which was all jolly good fun until Winston returned to the party with the news that Myron Van Buren is MISSING!
*comical gasps from the crowd*
Where did he go? You’ll have to read for yourself to find out…
Murder at Myron’s
(Part 2/4)
Lightning split the sky, illuminating the scene.
Mordred was looking piercingly at Winston, as though he was reading his mind to see if this was some sort of prank. Director D was looking politely surprised. Moreau made a small gasp that was so comically French of her that Daphne sniggered. Ringmaster Raven did not seem affected by the news and remained still.
Captain Crawfish, on the other hand, spit out a drink and banged the empty cup on the table with a loud “HE’S MISSIN’?”. Gretchen Grimlock (whom Crawfish’s drink had been spat out on) was scowling and looked disgusted. Black Widow couldn’t care less. And Count Bram sat up a little straighter in his chair, waiting to hear more.
I, Merlin, was shocked to hear that the host had disappeared. I wondered what had happened to him and was very curious to find out. Excited (though very concerned), I started to fly around Mordred’s head.
“I’ve looked everywhere!” Winston said heavily. “He’s nowhere in the house — or outside, for that matter.”
“Odd,” Moreau said. “He’s normally the first one present for these sorts of things.”
“Very odd indeed,” agreed Raven.
Gretchen mused, “He ALWAYS makes a big scene whenever he’s at a party. Something must be wrong if he’s not around…”
Captain Crawfish stood up. “I’m going to go find him!” He started to walk out of the room.
“Wait!” Winston said. “We should go in groups to search. I hate to be the paranoid one, but something’s definitely off. It wouldn’t be safe to go alone.”
“Alright,” Crawfish sighed. “Which one of you lot wants to come with me?”

Why hello everyone! Welcome to another Pop-over: a Poptropica crossover with another universe. This time, we’re going back to the Roaring Twenties (and no it’s not Gatsby)!
The story of Lackadaisy takes place in the glorious town of St Louis, Missouri and is set during the 1920s. It tells the adventures of Rocky, Calvin “Freckles”, and Ivy Pepper as they try and help Mitzi May (Miss M) keep the Lackadaisy Speakeasy in business. Lackadaisy started as a webcomic and has a TV show currently in production.
Now let’s meet the characters — and their Poptropica counterparts! (You can dress like them using the Avatar Studio Glitch, aka ASG.)
Rocky is the main protagonist of Lackadaisy. He is the leader of the team to help Miss M keep the Lackadaisy Speakeasy in business. You can find Rocky playing his violin in the band for the speakeasy, creating free verse poems, and being chaotic, which usually annoys Ivy. Here is a fun clip of Rocky. You can use the ASG account: RockyASG to turn into this fun, mischievous feline on Poptropica.
Calvin “Freckles” McMurray is Rocky’s cousin. Even though Rocky can get a bit chaotic at times, Freckles is the complete opposite. Freckles is often shy and innocent but he can switch to chaotic really fast to protect the ones he cares about. You can use the ASG account FrecklesASG to turn into him.
Ivy Pepper is perky, confident, hotheaded, temperamental, romantic, only when Freckles is around, and often saucy to those who get the better of her. (credit: Lackadaisy Wiki) You can use the ASG account: IvyPepperASG to turn into her.
Mordecai Heller is the main antagonist of Lackadaisy. He is more reserved and doesn’t like it when people mess up with his plans or acts in an informal manner. He’s also a triggerman for the Marigold gang after leaving the Lackadaisy speakeasy. You can use the ASG account: MordecaiASG to dress like him.
Mitzi May, formally known as Miss M in the show, is the current owner of the Lackadaisy Speakeasy. She is often in a depressed mood, since her husband, Atlas May, the founder of the Lackadaisy speakeasy, passed away. She cares for the people around her and isn’t afraid to take in new recruits. There are rumors spreading around St. Louis that Miss M might have taken part in Atlas’s death, but it’s just a theory. You can use the ASG account: MitziMayASG to dress like her.
Finally, we have Viktor. Viktor is the bartender of the Lackadaisy Speakeasy. Besides his knowledge of liquor, he cares for the Lackadaisy Speakeasy as he wants to continue with what Atlas started. He did have a bad run-in Mordecai in the past, so we will see what lies in store for this ferocious feline. You can use the ASG account: ViktorASG to dress as him.
That’s a wrap on the Lackadaisy Pop-over! While some indie cartoons have become hits, this new show is still trying to get their spotlight. So I encourage everyone to watch the pilot and tell me your thoughts! (Note: Since it takes place during the Prohibition era, the show does contain alcohol and gun violence.) It’s also got its own theme song now you can enjoy!

Well that’s enough of me rambling. I’ll see you all soon! 📚🧊
Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Magic Kid. Enjoy!
BOO! Hi guys, did I scare you? I’m Magic Kid, and after my long hiatus after my last fanfiction, Zombies, Zombies, Always Zombies!, I’m back with another Poptropica fic for y’all: Murder at Myron’s. I’ll post this fanfiction in four parts throughout the month of October as a Halloween treat for you PHB readers!
This series will be narrated by none other than Merlin, the mechanical owl from Astro-Knights Island,and will feature several Poptropica villains you know and love that will be introduced as the story goes on.
And now! Without further ado, I present you with…
Murder at Myron’s
(Part 1/4)
It was a dark and stormy night…
That’s how most stories start, right? Either that or “Once upon a time”, which wouldn’t suit the tale we were about to embark on anyway. But I assure you that the night of which our story starts was indeed “dark and stormy”.
Thunder echoed in every corner of the woods, lightning crackled and split the sky, the rain mercilessly poured from the heavy gray clouds. What a storm, what a storm!
And then, from the clouded night sky, a light shone. It was bright and it was… moving? Sure enough, the light was getting bigger, coming closer and closer to the ground.
Was it a UFO? Were perhaps aliens about to invade the lush forest? Good guess.
As the clouds parted to let this mysterious object land, it was now apparent that the light was from fire from the spaceship’s thruster. The rain pounded against the metal of the ship as it gently lowered itself down onto the earth, breaking the tall trees’ branches as it went.
🎵 Come one, come all / It’s the PHB Ball! Where the creatures of the dark / Gather answering the call 🎵
