Their relationship is mostly resembles Bulma and Vegeta. The relationship quirks are from Cosmo and Wanda. There ARE overlapping qualities I will say.
No worries! Usually my artwork for Chance and the other characters aren't 100% canon unless I state otherwise. Either way you can always ask.
Yes they are the same character. At around the end of 2024 I started drawing Mesoamerican art of them and in 2025, someone in the comments called them Cosmocoatl, and since then I have adopted the name. Cosmo is based off of the deity Quetzalcoatl, whereas Danny is based off of Camazotz to which I named him Danazotz.
They basically evolved into the characters they are now. Although that era has passed, these two are very dear to me and hold tons of meaning. They've helped me learn and grow and get through so much trauma and rough patches in my life. I don't think I will ever truly drop these two.
This is what non-Mexicans and non-latinos think of on this non-Mexican holiday!
Available on my shop!
I will also be dropping merch for Divine Acid when the chapter drops
OH MY GOSH! :D This is so pretty I love it! I'm also glad you like the pony tail! I plan to draw more of her and Cosmo. I just don't wanna force it ya know. When I draw them I wanna draw them out of joy. So bare with me pls 🙏 bcz I also have comms and my comic to work on.
If you have been following me you know that I draw Fairly Oddparents and Danny Phantom. Well, I haven't been drawing them as much as I used to for a good while but that's about to change. I'm tired of letting fear get in the way of drawing something that brings me happiness. So expect to see more fan art of these franchises not because I want followers or likes but because I have to for my own healing. My goal is to find true happiness from within when it comes to drawing fanart of them. When I drew these characters before, I was so worried about the approval of others and how many followers or likes I got from it but I don't want to do that anymore. I want to draw them my way in my own time. I want to be able to pour my soul in each piece. I don't care about the trends and I don't care about the approval of others. I just wanna draw.
Also please understand that while more fanart will be drawn, I still have my own projects such as Divine Acid that I had to learn to love all on my own. So don't expect me to drop my personal projects all because I'm doing more fanart.
Look I genuinely love the Fairly Oddparents and Danny Phantom. I really do. And it took me a while to learn to enjoy them again after a rough 2024 in the fandom. All of 2025 was me doing some introspection and self reflection. Re-discovering who I am, what I wanted and why. Safe to say I'm glad I had to learn this lesson. It was a brutal and painful one but it changed me and caused me to go through metamorphosis. And as such, I learned a lot about myself and scoial media as a whole.
Right now I am just so happy to be able to enjoy FOP and DP in my own way, in my own space. And that was the goal the entire time. During my year of introspection, I decided I wanted to cultivate my own space and my own audience. Not just for FOP and DP but for Divine Acid as well because I also learned to love my own work.
If you are in a dark place, please know that it's temporary. Joy will come back again. It'll take some time but be gentle with yourself. Know who your real friends are, cherish your family, and learn to love yourself and your hobbies.

Okay this is gonna require a long answer because Divine Acid had THREE previous renditions before I started the current one. The reason for this was because I had a lot of self worth issues, impostor syndom, and just tons and tons of other emotional and mental problems from being abused throughout the years. I was not able to have the success I have with this current rendition if I did not go to therapy and confront my trauma and inner demons. So anyway, let's get started!
So the first rendition was simple. It was done on a little wacom tablet (no screen), and I didn't have any webcomic experience. The first and formost inspiration was Alvin and the Chipmunks. AATC was what inspired the overall set up. A guitar playing rabbit and his brother. Now as for the characters, Chance the rabbit was inspired by Hilly Burford from back at the Barnyard. Aaron was inspired by a teacher I used to have but it's a problematic story so I will no go into it. I changed the inspiration for Aaron but I'll get to that later.
So this first rendition didn't have much to it but it set up the foundation of what is Divine Acid today. I gave up about half way through with only 19 pages. The premise of this rendition is After Aaron and Chance got done singing on stage they encouter a hater on the way home and it kills Chance's confidence and he refuses to sing ever again so Aaron decides to move the next concert to literally their house. That's it. I never finished it.
So next up we have the second rendition which.....was okay. Wasn't that great. Chance was DEFINITELY a huge prick.
The premise for this one was Chance and Aaron go to San Antonio to have a concert in front of the Alamo which is an homage to Selena.A villain named Logan wants the fame and power for himself so he kidnaps Aaron and tries to feed him to a killer whale at Sea World. Chance was down right AWFUL in this. But that wasn't why I gave up. I gave up because well, I felt that nobody cared or didn't want to read my comic.
Now this last rendition shifted the focus from Chance to a new character named James. The comic was called No Bleeps Given and the style was weird and then it just shifted to an anime style at the end but overall the comic was better constructed. It only had two episodes with the second not even finsihed.
Once again I gave up on this comic. I lost all interest for the same reasons as the other two.
After this for about four or five years after, I got into the Dragon Ball fandom and made fanart. Participated in a few fandom projects that all fell apart and just really led to nothing except for a new love of the anime. I will always love Dragon Ball. Infact, I love Dragon Ball so much that I incorporated elements in to the FOURTH comic! Divine Acid!
Divine Acid started during the Covid era. I had three months off of work so I used that time to make this comic. The art style was better and so was the story telling. By no means was it the best but definitely better that the previous renditions. I was proud of this one. I had people actually wanting to read and falling in love with the characters. I was determined to stick with it.
But even then, I still had problems. I was still fighting my inner demons and my emotional and mental traumas. I still had impostor syndom but I was putting up a fight. During the "Dungoens and Discontent" chapter...I was slowly posting. I was losing motivation. Then I went on a side quest. A Fairly Odd Journey.
The only reason I, at this moment, couldn't be any prouder of Divine Acid was because I went on a Fairly Odd journey which led to my own down fall. I will not go into detail but the summary of it was that I ditched Divine Acid to do Fairly Oddparents art (and some Danny Phantom) only for me to lose eveything due to me exhibiting problematic behaviors from not confronting my traumas and inner demons. It wasn't all bad. In fact, the entire journey with the Fairly Oddparents taught me a lesson. It was a journey of self transformation. Learning to value myself and my own work. Because of this journey I learned to love and value Divine Acid for what it is. I even wrote a blog about how Chance was a projection of my lower qualities.
And a year later after my Fairly Odd Journey, I am here with a family that loves me, friends that care about me, and fans that look up to me. Me and the crew are working on the next chapter and I couldn't be anymore excited!
Hope this all answered your question!
We all have that part of ourselves that we try to repress, ignore, and run away from. The part of ourselves that makes us uncomfortable. Our shadow selves is a part of who we are whether we like it or not. In terms of Psychology, it is an unconscious aspect of ourselves. Esoterically, there are certain conditions to where you can go even deeper with it. Like in my case: Accidental Hypersigiling.
What is hypersigiling you may ask? A hyper sigil is a drawn symbol or a piece of art drawn with intent and then charged in various ways. This term was coined by Grant Morrison, who was notable for turning his comic, The Invisibles, into a hypersigil. This is essentially what I did with Chance. The only difference is, it was an accident. How did that happen?
Well, in 2009, when I first made Chance the rabbit in high school. I didn't have any sort of intention whatsoever. He was just a happy go lucky bunny with a big ego who could sing and play guitar. That was it. In 2015, I stopped drawing him for a while because I gave up on whatever rendition of the comic I was doing at the time. My self esteem was low, my self worth was low. The only thing that was high was my envy and my rage. I went of a side quest of fanart for Dragon Ball, Foster's Home, and My Little Pony. No Chance the Rabbit was to be seen because of course the fan art made it easier to get traction and followers. Unfortunately, fandoms are toxic. Now I didn't have the worst time in these particular fandoms. Only one but we'll get to that later.
Fast forward to 2020, back when we were on lockdown. Well, at my job, we were told to stay home because everyone was trying not to get covid. So it was basically a three month vacation. I took this opportunity to bring back my boy and start the beloved webcomic Divine Acid. Now I'm sure you're wondering "When are you going to get to the hypersigiling part?" Oh don't you worry. We're getting there because what makes this rendition of the comic different is that I was just introduced into the occult. It was also a time I was into Dragon Ball which played a role in it.
This time around, I didn't just bring Chance back, I projected a lot of myself into him and the comic. I poured all of my insecurities and all the qualities I hated about myself onto him. At the time I didn't have the knowledge, recourses, or skills to deal with all of my shadow aspects so I just channeled it through him in not just the comic but a lot of my artwork. I projected all of my anger and envy expressed though visual anger using Dragon Ball inspired expressions. In fact, I designed and modeled Chance after Vegeta with that tough guy attitude. This was during a time where I put the tough guy act on myself and ran away from my "foolish emotions" pretending not to care about anyone else. Yes quite edgy I know. But that only made things worse. I ended up bottling up so much and my only means of expressing any of it was through Chance. I did this for about three years.
With all of that raw emotion, projection, and artwork, eventually I noticed what seemed like Chance speaking to me. There were times when I would doodle his expressions on a big empty canvas, based on how I felt and what I saw in my mind as if he wanted me to channel those out to convey a message. While I did take note of this, I didn't think much of it. I did question if Chance somewhat had a mind of his own but never actually took the time to dig deeper.
In 2023, is when I started resenting him and the comic. I mean who would want to look in the mirror and only see the worst parts of themselves? At this point in time I had confirmed that Chance was indeed....semi-sentient. My only thought process was "well if I keep doing this comic and keep drawing him, I'm only going to manifest these shadow aspects and make them worse!" So, I considered quitting the comic and drop him all together. I was only SLOWLY updating the comic with weeks in between pages because I got so mentally exhausted and the resentment made it harder and harder for me to push through. Then I went on another tangent.
In comes the Fairly Oddparents! I'm not gonna go too much into detail with this one. Long story short, I ditched Chance for fanart of the Fairly Oddparents during the new series, gained popularity, and connections only to have one of the worst experiences of my life and lose it all. Now, don't get me wrong there was some good that came out of this. It was one of the biggest and most valuable life lessons that helped me realize what's actually important. First off, it helped me see the value in my comic, Divine Acid and secondly, Chance needed to be approached with compassion and understanding.
About a week and a half ago I was told about understanding the moon. I didn't get it at first until now and it makes sense. The moon has two sides. One side illuminated and the other covered in darkness. It represents the two aspects of ourselves. Obviously the shadow self being the the dark side of the moon. If you're an esoteric practitioner like me, certain phases of the moon can be useful for shadow work. I started doing shadow work in late 2023. It's hard the first time around but the more you do it the easier it gets and the more you understand it. Shadow work is never done. In fact, it takes a life time. You're always learning and discovering new things about yourself and your life's journey.
Upon working with Chance, I have discovered a few things:
And this is only after a week and a half. I'm excited to spend more quality time with him because boy oh boy he could definitely use it. Poor little guy.
Anyway that's all I have for now! I will see you next time! And don't forget to catch me on my live streams!
I can't choose just one so here's my top three in no particular order.
DEFINITELY Zahira, runner up would be Chance, and then Aaron
Oh I have a few I DEFINITELY wanna do!
I will get to them someday!
Hi there, I'm Lord Maru. I'm an artist, animator, and the creator of Divine Acid!
Don't expect anything completely wordy. I just wanna have a space of my own to like....ya know......do whatever. Anyway, here's a few pieces of art I made recently with Ohuhu Makrers!
If You can't tell yet. I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY like Cosmo from the Fairly Oddparents. In fact, I made my own version of him inspired by the Mesoamerican Deity Quetzalcoatl and thus gave him the name Cosmocoatl.
