Coop from Megas XLR. He's a videogame obsessed obese man with a robot with a car for a head, not your usual save the world hero. And he's awesome for it.
Brock Sampson from Venture Bros. I've never even seen the show, but he did this http://www.deadrobot.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Brock-Sampson-Awesome.gif so he wins in my opinion.
Sickest thing from my childhood.DirtyMagic said:I'll just limit my choices to what we get served in the poll.
But then I DEFINITELY go with Darkwing Duck.
I mean, can you remember the guy? He just OOZES awesome!
Let's get dangerous!
I was going to put Yakko in this list... but already had Bugs Bunny. "Animaniacs" is still my favourite though.Vhite said:
There can be only one.
Good Night Everybody!
I'm pretty sure it was because the voice actor for Aku died.Adrian Madhog said:
It sucks that we'll probably never see another season or an actuall movie to wrap up the story. Still, this way it feels more like an epic legend rather than just another good cartoon. In all honesty though, it's fine enough for me that it lasted four seasons. Considering it was quite violent for a 'kids' show.

Not one of those other characters has a Giant Robot Car (Samurai Jack comes very close though)

Okay, you asked for it... let me just position myself above a soapbox... there we go: originally, cartoons were the funny pages from newspapers, THEN they became "animated" cartoons, short films for the cinema, so technically speaking, modern TV cartoons aren't even "cartoons" but "animated series". Anime is a term that exists to define Japanese TV animated series and, nowadays, it also refers to the particular style such series are made. So, in the end, my point is: cartoons are one thing, anime are another, animated films are another one, but in the end they're all Animation... which I love with passion.Eric Huntinton said:
Speaking of foreign cartoons.... CRUD! I forgot to add Yugo from the spectacularly remarkable "Wakfu" series!
Your avatar was kind of giving that away.Caramel Frappe said:Ah yes.. cartoons. My main motivation when I was young and still they influence me to be happy with things. Many adults clarify that they stir violence within innocent lives but really they themselves grew up with it- and look how they turned out! Ironic, isn't it?
My vote will have to go to no other then this cartoon character right here:
<spoiler=My Choice>
Along that, the current one I like in 2nd place is actually on the Poll. That will have to go to:
<spoiler=My 2nd Choice>
I've never heard of Toph or Rainbow Dash, so I assume they must be some sort of anime cartoon. Annnd, since I'd rather pour bleach in my eyes than watch 90% of existing anime. . .
Freakazoid, I've heard of, ( and what I've heard is that it was awesome) but again, I haven't actually seen it.
Felix the Cat and Samarai Jack are good choices for inclusion on the list, but I didn't vote for them.
Darkwing Duck was good, but not good enough.
So, I voted for the original rabbit of Awesome- Bugs Bunny.
On a side note, the list has three spots open if you discard whatever Toph and Rainbow Dash were, as well as Darkwing Duck. The cartoons deserving of those spots would be Pinky and the Brain ( Realizing that they are two characters, but they are virtually never apart so I think it's fair to consider them as one) , The Tick, and Tex Avery.
Other considerations should have gone to Ren & Stimpy, The Warner Bros and Dot, Batman the Animated Series, and a whole slew of newer cartoon characters including most of Family Guy, The Simpsons, Venture Bros, Harvey Birdman, Space Ghost, Aqua Teen, and as I've been told, but not seen- Archer.
In short, fan of cartons that I am, I find the idea that two cartoons are included on the list that I've never even heard of, is telling of an uninspired list.
The saving grace is Bugs Bunny, who should be on everyones list of awesome fictional characters, let alone just cartoons.
P.S. I know that I've left some great cartoons out of my shoutouts, but the point was to establish a core group of classic and new, that outdistance the list, rather than specifically mention every great cartoon character.
