I think I like the Planet revolution battle we the best. The Moon revolution was kinda mediocre. It wasn’t really actions against the moons, just protecting earth and how it ended. It was also pretty bad. The battle of X is kind of the same thing, but it had more and the moons tried more harder to defeat X again and they could’ve fought more. The Planet Revolution was my favorite because it worked a little bit better although it wasn’t like whole entire war but just defeating the sun and trying to save the planets. I guarantee for the battle that happens at the end of this arc will probably be the greatest.

This is a shitpost and if I see people actually being assholes about ships you're getting a mattarello in the head

A long awaited and anticipated conversation finally happens between the Sun and his first planet. Will it go well?

I dont know if it is just me but I thought that the rouge planets in the show were fictonal planets like Theia and Planet X. But today when i was bored at college I checked irl rouge planets and...all of the rouge planets explicitly named in solarballs EXIST IN REAL LIFE. I do not know if this is a secret hint in solarballs that I just discovered, or if im geniuenley a dummy and I im the only one in the community who didnt know about this, but either way....its uncanny to think the rouge planets in solarballs exist irl.

ogle's going to the solar system be like:

This is the Solarballs Wiki image for L 98-59 d, and as someone who does a lot of stuff about this planet, I need to rant.

Why is there a giant global ocean of what looks like water (could be liquid cobalt for all i know)? Unless magma is somehow blue, this is wildly inaccurate as it has a near global magma ocean, and liquid water technically is possible because of the insane pressures but nowhere near this scale.
Im not going to get into atmosphere stuff, because its inconsistent. All I'll say is L 98-59 d has an atmosphere that is likely much thicker than venus's, and its loaded with Sulfur Dioxide.
Secondly, those landmasses are a bit big for the planet, as it likely has 99% of its surface magma.

I know this episode came out 2 months ago, but still, I can't stop watching this scene ever since the episode first premiered. More people need to talk about Jack Stansbury's performance during Sun's breakdown. The Sun's voice genuinely sounds like he's having a breakdown and/or is at the edge of crying. While I do think the Sun's downfall was justified, I literally get teary eyed everytime I replay this scene.

Alright, so, I was thinking about the Grand Tack Survivors and thought it was weird how the Rogue Planet Kingdom existed back then. The survivors all had to have been found 4.5 billion years ago (and even if not, there had to have been somebody paying attention to the Solar System to know what happened immediately after the Grand Tack and tell the survivors), but most of the leaders aren’t old enough to have been around back then. Simp is 250 million years old at most, 6 million for OTS, and PSO is 26 million.

This means that Simp did not found the Rogue Planet Kingdom and that somebody was the leader before her. This raises obvious questions. Who was in charge before her? What happened to them? Why is she now in charge?

My theory is that Simp either killed the previous leader of the Rogue Planets, or she usurped them and made them her subordinate. I’ve got thoughts on both scenarios.

*1: She killed the previous leader and took over.*
Isn’t it WEIRD that there is barely any diversity in leadership? Everyone who has a position of power (as far as we know), except for maybe Ogle, is a brown dwarf. That’s weird. Why aren’t there any mini-Neptunes? Super-Jupiters? Sub-Earths (I guess Ogle could be argued to fit in this category, though)? Binary planets? Moons (we know they do accept moons into their ranks)? Dwarf-Planets? Cthonian planets? Former hot Jupiters? Super-Puffs? How can the leaders of the Rogue Kingdom (80% of whom aren’t even planets) ever hope to understand and fairly represent all these different groups? They can’t. And I think that was the intention.
Maybe, in the past, there was more representation. But after Simp got rid of the previous leader, she became a dictator and made it so pretty much everyone in power would be celestial bodies like her.

*2: She usurped the previous leader and now they work for her.*
Okay, so back when I was talking about the rogue planet ages, I conspicuously omitted Wise and Ogle’s. The reason for this is because they’re the only two who could have possibly been alive 4.5 billion years ago. Wise is 1-10 billion years old and nobody knows how old Ogle is. So, what if one of them was in charge before Simp came along? Ogle being in charge previously would explain why he’s even near the same level of prestige as the other leaders despite not being a brown dwarf, and Wise being the previous leader could explain why he feels so conflicted a lot of the time. Maybe he’s more loyal to his previous subordinates and follows Simp’s orders in order to keep them all safe.

Either way, the plausibility of this happening comes down to if the writers would write Simp that way, and honestly, I’m not sure. Redemption is a big theme in SolarBalls, and if Simp was written like this, then she may be straying too far into the category of ‘pure evil’. Once Simp is irredeemable, there isn’t a perfect way to deal with her. If she’s killed, then the show will misalign with reality. If she gets chucked into the void of space by the Sun, then she can just come back in a few billion years when he’s dead. She’s got until the heat death of the universe and beyond to get her revenge on any surviving planets who she thinks have wronged her. Maybe the writers will surprise me, though. Who knows.

But hey, that’s just a theory. A SolarBalls theory! Thanks for reading.

TLDR: Simp is a dictator who usurped the previous leader of the rogue planets.

Probably mercury because he looks pretty dead 😳.
BUT Charon had her injury from April until August. So that MAY be worse in my opinion

It's a remake for this old picture

First comic panels coming Saturday (hopefully)
