Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Mr Fruit Pie appears in #91. Much, much later, Thor tells Durkon about the movie snack world. So it looks like mortals can survive the destruction of the world.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
I didn't take that as a mortal surviving the destruction of the world, I took that as the gods literally inserting Easter eggs from previous worlds into the new one for their own amusement.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
The Giant has dropped things into early episodes only to bring them back much later before with meaning. Remember the belt of gender changing? Remember the crayon drawings? Remember Hilgya?
Okay, Mr Fruit Pie got killed, but maybe that was a Simulacrum or Eidolon, or he has Contingent Resurrection?

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Mr. Fruit Pie isn't necessarily from Sentient Theater Snacks world. Maybe there are more of his kind in Stickworld.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Or Maybe Fruit Pie the sorcerer is the character who has appeared in 1 page who will become a powerful ally.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Of course. Not only is he a dimensional traveler, he's also a time traveler !
Too bad the order didn't stay around to notice his demise. They could have warned him.Yes, I am slightly egomaniac. Why didn't you ask?

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Presumably, there is a long stretch of time between worlds, and the gods go to extreme lengths to protect the secret, such as by having a complete communications blackout and memory-wiping all planar creatures. So having some dude pop off into the astral plane for a bit seems like such a remarkably obvious tactic that the gods not addressing it would seem downright strange at best, is all.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
The Far Realms aren't just another plane, it is absolutely the best place I can think of to hide from the gods themselves. It's the place that abberations come from, and where forgotten eldritch beings still slumber. Unfortunately, trying to live there tends to go very poorly for your sanity and "not being a hideous monster"-ness.
Also I think these guys are more likely candidates to be from movie snack world. Also Popcorn didn't die on screen, obviously he is the unforeseen ally who has only appeared on one page so far.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Y'know, either theory works, but I like the Easter egg theory best. Especially since I can imagine the more straight-laced gods (eg Heimdall) hating that world for being too silly and wanting to ignore its former existence even more than the rest of the worlds, so that would be an incentive enough for someone like Loki to specifically include a reminder.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
In my headcannon, the gods make each material plane in a different location each time. Even if someone in the astral plane looked for the new world, they have infinite space to search.
That's just stupid.
If anything they'd be literal vernal equinox eggs: Eggs the size of a horse hidden across the world. Each spring one hatches a full grown aberration from a previous world.

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
No, I think it points to something much darker. Because if Fruit Pie the Sorcerer was indeed born in the Movie Snack Universe ... who in their right mind would choose to categorize a fruit pie as a movie snack? Clearly, Fruit Pie the Sorcerer is the product of a deeply disturbed and deviant god.
This is further borne out by the fact that snack fruit pies are disgusting. They never look as good in person as they do on the box; the pastry is soggy and disintegrating or stale and stiff; the filling is lumpy and mushy and syrupy and cloyingly overstuffed with sugar and it's never really the right color or the right flavor, and it leaves an odious aftertaste that's never quite the same each time - bitter some times, sour and acidic others, some times it leaves the flavor of actual cardboard. You think to stick in a microwave perhaps, but that never works - it becomes this hideous lump of mixed food-like components that's either still frozen cold or lava hot, never in-between. Snack fruit pies are a mockery of real pies, and real fruit, and wears their names like a serial killer wearing the faces of their victims.
I contend that Fruit Pie the Sorcerer is not a single entity. Rather, it is a creation of the Snarl itself, that is recreated anew in every universe, to act as the Snarl's agent to destabilize the fabric of reality. It steadily saps at the health and strength of the mortal residents with artificial preservatives and trans fats, weakening the mortals until they can no longer fight against the Snarl. And by distorting the very definitions of "snack", and of "fruit" and of "pies" - the three pillars of unalloyed pure goodness - it also disturbs the very concept of truth.
No matter how this all plays out, the true hero of this story is that lone goblin who slew Fruit Pie the Sorcerer. If this universe survives, that unnamed, unknown goblin will be the one who actually saved us all.
The hero we needed.

That's an easy five centavo bet. *clinks down coins*

Re: Mr Fruit Pie the Sorceror and surviving the destruction of the world
Not quite. Elan knew what Fruit Pie is, and they were apparently on friendly terms. It is immediately evident that they have been working together all along. Elan is an agent of the Snarl. That is why he destroyed Dorukan's Gate. Also, Tarquin was partly right: Elan is the real leader. He subtly manipulates the others from behind his faked stupidity, and it's working. The Order managed to (directly or indirectly) destroy three Gates thus far.
All in all, I think we've found our final boss. The moment Elan gets close enough to the final Gate… Messy things are waiting ahead.
