That's one of my favorite episodes, too!:) >:(


Anyways, I think Duchess is kinda funny. I want to see her in upcoming episodes, too. I think it's hilarious how she's literally 2-D!!! hahahaha! I wonder who her creator was...

Count me in among those who wonder what kind of kid envisioned Duchess and her paper-thin Cubist self. Speaking of paper-thin, it would be hilarious if the Paper Mario series also had that sort of a character.

I'm really curious as to who created Duchess as well. The one thing I love about her is that she's paper-thin.

I'd like to know what her age is. I've always assumed she's one of the older IF's in the house, but how old is she really? Is she somewhere near Mr. Herriman's age, or despite her appearance is she actually much younger?

Shelltoon 07-31-2007 10:53 PM

Well, Duchess was there with Herriman, and Uncle Pockets in the first annual photo, but that doesn't really help determine her age. If I had to take a guess on the matter, she's probably around the same age as Herriman.

I'm not the first to suggest this, but she could be older still...

Kind of curious, but how tall is Duchess? She towers over Eduardo.

Duchess is obviously based on the works of artist Pablo Picasso from his "Classisist/Synthetic Cubism/Surrealist" period, from the late 1920's through WWII, so she would have probably been created, probably in Europe, sometimes within that time frame, or shortly afterwards. Her accent is definately Eastern European. I've had this theory that she and her creator were separated by the invading Nazi troops, and perhaps she witnessed quite a few horrors, which could account for her nastiness. It's a defense mechanism borne of bitterness.

I'd love to see Duchess and Poker guy (Jack of Spades from Adoptcalypse) get together for some serious 2-D romance.

Lynnie 04-11-2008 07:05 PM

Ah hahahaha! Yeah, because they're both paper thin. Poker Buddy so much so he could be slid right under the door. Duchess though does seem to have some depth to her though. Maybe like origami or something? Hmm, I dunno, she just always did have that weird structure to her, but it's hard to imagine how exactly that is.
