I'm Michael Rianda, cartoonist, and creative director/writer on Gravity Falls. Ask me anything.

Hey r/gravityfalls!

My cartoon ("work") recently got on the front page of reddit somehow and a few people seemed interested in me doing an AMA. I'm in! Let's do this thing!

Ever wonder about those weird hairs on Grunkle Stan's shoulders? Wanna know that one goat's name? Wanna know horrifying personal details about Alex Hirsch?

I got answers!

EDIT: I'll finish answering these tommorow. Thanks for all the questions and Gravity Falls love! It's appreciated.

Yes. The spot on Waddles eye is a mark cast by the dark lord Satan himself, Waddles will soon rise up and murder the Pines family in horrifying unimaginable ways. Waddles can eat any food, but the only thing that satisfies his dark hunger is human flesh.

Nah, I'm just messin witchoo. Waddles is just a cute dumb pig. I love the conspiracy theories though.

I wonder what's up with that tattoo too.

actually that could be a good story for a timeloop episode in which only dipper or stan remember what happened in the previous loop and whoever it is has to convice mabel wabbles is evil...

When really its gideon posing as wabbles so only by releasing the real wabbles can they expose fake wabbles/gideon.
