*clears throat* Yes ive heard of Linkara someone posted a link to his review of Youngblood#1...Well lets just say i was burning with white-hot rage through most of the video. His picks and pokes are juvenile at worst and unprofessional at best. He expects everything to be realistic and meticulousness detailed, it was 1992 for pity's sakes give some credit where its due. I would love to personally debate that Linkara till one of us broke down.Swifteye said:
Techniqually Frank & Alan already invented the darker side of comics. I agree with what Bob said with reguards that it wasnt the art it was the story, and it wasnt that it was dark it was just very well thought out. Cheesecake? Out of sync with human physiology? What are we talking physics or Comics? Its a comic, set in a fictional world, it doesnt have to be realistic. If thats the case someone should have told DC a loooong time ago. What is this fascination with realism? Your reading a comic book to escape realism, you leave your logical side out of it.
As for the 80's vs 90's cartoon debate...Well its tough for me to say. I was born in mid 80's, my parents recorded hours upon hours of cartoons when I was a toddler and I was raised on that, and living in europe in the late 80's they recieved the shows later than the us so i watched them all over again. The 80's gave birth to some of the most awesome and inspired toons but they where only a handful.
The 90's I remembered very well. Waking up early to watch toons. The 90's didnt have as many "awe inspireing" toons as the 80's but its in the 90's their where many that where quite good. So many shows where produced in the 90's but very few where bad. So in the 80's you had a handful of Iconic shows but not much else, the 90's you didnt have as many but you had more variety and almost guaranteed to see a good show.
