Online Presence

SolarBalls has gotten itself a massive online following due to the fact that unlike MrSpherical, it has a more continuity based plot and multiple story arcs, along with the fact that it's based off the much less popular spinoff of PolandBall called SpaceBalls, whereas MrSpherical was based off the already popular PolandBall that even has fanart, fan animations, and it's own wiki^[8].
