So on October 20, Allison Strejlau, who works as an illustrator for the Regular Show comics posted this

"aaaand another character bites the dust it seems…more sad edits for meeee…"

on her tumblr page and hash tagged:

"# at least I get to add Eileen in where they were # sigh a lot of people will be sad but idk if they're just changing or gone??? we'll see~ # obviously I can't say who right now lol sorry I'm an ass"

A few days later, Panicvision (another tumblr user) posted this response where they related Allison's post to the upcoming episode "The End of Muscle Man" and speculated whether he could be leaving the show. Another user, Tetedetele, posted a response to this post saying ". . . I’m now between Muscle Man and CJ being the one to leave."

Allison then responded to both posts, revealing:

"Ya’ll’re both off the mark a bit but only a tad lol where did all this death talk even come from, besides remember that hfg ep where like everyone died I mean if it were the case idk if it’d be THAT big a deal is all, but again not sure whats planned."

To this, both Panicvision and Teledetele made their own posts with speculations on what might happen.

And that's about that for now.

From this alone, I don't think we have enough information to say for sure that a major character will be written off the show. Yeah, it's hard to take "another one bites the dust" to mean something else, but Allison herself said she wasn't sure if it was "just changing (the artwork?) or (if the character in question? is) gone", meaning she's probably not the one behind the writing and is just as in the dark as the fans on this one.

Also, she works as a comic book illustrator, which makes me think she's talking about the RS comic and not the TV show when she says "at least I get to add Eileen where they were." (As in, literally taking the character out of the panel and placing Eileen where they were postioned. She's done this for Margaret and CJ if you check out her recent RS tumblr posts.)

In her response to Panicvision and Teledetele's posts, Allison didn't say what was going to happen in the show, only that something in their speculations was "off the mark a bit". She also said that she's "not sure what's planned", which again, could mean she's not the one behind the writing, but does know that she's being told to edit a certain character out of her artwork, for whatever reason. Perhaps all this does mean that one of the major characters will get written out, but it could also mean something else that hasn't been thought of yet. At least that's my take on it. The thing is, I remember another post where she said something like...how she thinks this character is getting written off both the comics and the show, since they want the comic to kind of go along with the show's current evens or something like that. That was kind of a 'guess' though. And that was also the one where she replayed to an ask. Someone wanted to know if chars are really leaving. (Or 1 character. Like I said, still belive I missread it, looking at this new posts.)

But yeah, I guess nothing is for sure.
