Poochy's Picks from Issue 216

The ? Panel	winstein (talk)	winstein's change in format here worked out superbly. With the wordplay, the soft borders around the images, and the colorful but soft art in general, I feel like I'm reading a delightfully adorable children's book.
Random Image of the Month	Shoey (talk)	This look at SMRPG art, all its... oddities like Mario turned the wrong way and the light through the woods included... made me yearn for the days where we got more art and renders that painted a scene of specific in-game events. Let's see these characters in the worlds built for them instead of always being happy-go-lucky in a blank void!
Anagrams	BBQ Turtle (talk)	Towns and cities of the Mario world is just a fun category. I like how it cuts across games, making for some challenging Anagrams as you try to search your memories for what all settlements are even in Mario in the first place.
The Sorcery Show	Legend 8 and Boo1268	It's a lot of fun seeing writers collaborate, and this was an excellent wrap-up of the plot threads these two started in the previous issue. Cool characters, a fun adventure, and some solid jokes to go with it, what more do you need?
News Flush	Waluigi Time (talk)	Nothing quite like a Blue VS. Blue hullabaloo!
Fungal Forager's Field Guide	Shoey (talk) and Hooded Pitohui (talk)	The Plungelo is quite an obscure enemy so it was nice reading about them in a Piklopedia style.
