An alternate (unofficial, obviously) ending to the Cartoon Network show “Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends.” Impressive artwork and interesting topic, but sad.
I haven’t really seen much of the show, but I do know that the show is done almost entirely in Flash, which is pretty impressive. The artwork in this comic isn’t bad either, though it’s obviously not up to the standards of the show.
If anyone knows the artist of this comic or where it came from, leave the details in a comment.

I’m not sure who the artist is, but i agree, it was done quite nicely. This alternate ending is merely a rip off of a tv series final episode, St. Elsewhere. The whole series wound up being imagined in the mind of an autistic child that sat playing with a snow globe all day. although its a rip off, i like how the artist transitioned from the shows haha.
duuuuuude that was so funny, i remember hearing about how that show St. Elsewhere ending in the same exact way. the funniest thing is that i watched that foster’s show and this would definitely have been the perfect ending to it.
ps. i lold
This is so sad, but at that same time I’m glad I saw it. Would really fit into the series, honestly–I wish more cartoons dealt with real subjects.
dude, it’s the final episode of st. elsewhere. a tv show from the 80s. still kind of fits, though.
Very nice site
…except for the fact that the monocled bunny dude is supposed to be frankie’s imaginary friend. Sorry, don’t mean to troll.
I thought the bunny was granny’s imaginary friend?
Shway has it right. Mr. Herriman (bunny dude) is Madame Foster’s friend. Well drawn, if sad and borrowed from a show I’m slightly too young to have actually watched.
The show is indeed animated in Flash, with some postproduction in After Effects. Macromedadobe Flash: Saving Traditional Animation at the Expense of Korean Inbetweeners Since 1996!
Duchess is Frankie’s imaginary friend. That’s why she always needs to take care of her when she acts up too much.
This is so depressing. Not to say I don’t like it, it’s incredible. I think the art is really impressive. It makes me really sad, Frankie was my favorite character! How was this found?
This actualy almost brought me to tears as a fan of the show
Duchess isn’t Frankie’s friend, Frankie simply has to take care of all of the friends in the house, it’s her job. Well drawn, although I’ve never heard of the show St. Elsewhere, I find it interesting how the artist could transfer the ending of that show, to the ending of Foster’s Home.
a truly fitting ending.
if i were the director of the series, i would have made this the final episode.
say what you want, but this fits more as an ending to the series than to st elsewhere.
This should have been the ending.
If it has not already been discovered, the artist of this Foster’s comic can be found on deviantart.com. Goes by the name of empty smile and the artist acknowledged the inspiration of St.Elsewhere titling the work St.Fosters. And yes it is a rather melancholy work, but fitting.
how did the series ACTUALLY end?
“how did the series ACTUALLY end?” Everbody died.
wow! That would be a great ending the art rocked too. 5/5
Mac was supposed to be moving, so Bloo tried to make him have a fun last day at Fosters. He never really got to hang out with him though. It turned out Mac was moving one door down.
