Do you consider these first-person novels in cartoons to be /co/?
>>143347561Yes
I consider them /lit/.
>>143347561I mean, they literally have comics in them.
>>143347646Can't they be both?
I consider them high art.
>>143347646Ba Dum Tas
>>143348085I don't think that counts. It's written from a 3rd person perspective rather than 1st person.
>>143348085I know it sounds stupid, but George and Harold inspired me to try my hand at being an entrepreneur.
>>143348459And how did that work out for you, Anon?
>>143348347It's like a close relative of the examples in OP's image in my opinion
>>143348085For me, it's Judy Moody and Cam Jansen. I'm scared to talk about them on /co/, though.
>>143348781>Judy MoodyMy only memory, other than seeing them on top of my elementary school library shelves, is of the Poptropica promotion and catching the movie on cable years later. I was bewildered at the fact that it got a movie.
>>143347561Did anyone actually read those Timmy Failure books? Also I'm just now finding out they adapted this.
>>143349121I did as a kid, mainly the first one as I actually owned it. I remember it being strangely melancholy. I think I was more drawn Timmy's home life rather than his very retarded sleuth shenanigans.
>>143348085Based. Did unreadable comics as a kid and always had a House Comics logo in the bottom because I wanted to make comics like George and Harold
>>143347561Big Nate was a comic strip for decades before the novels. It just wasn't as successful as other kid strips because most of the characters are massive jerks.
>>143348732That's retardedThat's like saying EVERY Scholastic graphic novel counts
>>143347561Man, Nut Weight has to be my favorite comic book character.Speaking of which, you guys ever just go and find the original designs of comic characters and see how they evolve over time?
>>143348708I had a small book-making operation going before the teachers destroyed my enterprise. Now I make computer games on the side and sell them to people for free.In other words, terribly.
>>143347561Real chad coming in.
>>143347561How many of these characters have had a Poptropica island?
No Amelia?!?/co/, I am disappoint!
The Brits did it before it became mainstream.
my cock is already getting hard reading this.https://dorkdiaries.com/2017/09/help-im-big-foot/
>>143347561I just remembered how messed up the middle school books were (bottom left guy). The main character is a kid whose mom's dating an abusive boyfriend, and at the end it's revealed that his best friend is actually an imagination of his twin brother who died at birth. The author wrote another book series (not illustrated iirc) about a kid who becomes a comedian to cope with the fact that his family died in a car accident that also left him permanently in a wheelchair. He also lives in the garage with his asshole relatvies
>>143350975Amelia Rules doesn't really fit the criteria of OPShe's more in line with Calvin & Hobbes and Peanuts than DOAWK or Dear Dumb Diaries She DOES narrate but it's far different from the diary format's handling of the first person perspective
>>143352177Yeah, I remember hating the movie because of how they removed most of that shit.
>>143350585I read a book in the 5th grade with a very similar premise. It was called Lunch Money. I bet you didn't even get the girl in the end.
>>143351813There's something about that How to Draw Manga style that I really like. Nikki is cute.
>>143348781>Judy MoodyHoly fuck, thank you, I was trying to remember the name of these books.
>>143350782>Poptropica island?The what though?
>>143355228It was a Flash adventure game/MMO hybrid made by the Wimpy Kid guy. Some levels, called "islands" as that's how they're presented in the context of the game, were sometimes based other books.>>143350782There was 2 based on DOAWK, a Big Nate one and a Timmy Failure one. There were tie-in promos for Dork Diaries and Middle School too.Poor Jamie got left out.
>>143347561Oh... Who is that little angel there in the bottom left..?
>>143347646Too high brow for /lit/
>>143355755Nikki from Dork Diaries
>the star wars books with the retarded kid
>>143356061Looked into it. The website is a treasure trove of preteen girl emotions and budding sexuality. Thank you for bringing it to my attention
>>143353334i thought of the same thing when i read that except i thought the book was frindlethey had a whole universe planned out for that caveman fucker, i wanted to be as cool as them
>>143356373>i wanted to be as cool as themWe all did, brother. We all did.
>>143356287Jedi Academy? I don't remember any tards in that one.
>>143357649it didn't take place in star wars but was about star warsthis retarded kid makes an origami yoda and gives advice in this shitty yoda voicei dont remember if it holds up or not like wimpy kid
>>143349121Read most of them growing up. I liked the part in of the sequels where timmy and molly go to a book store that has the authors of various other children's books on it.
>>143347561I love Jamie Kelly!
>>143356079>I'm so RETARDED
>>143355689>made by the Wimpy Kid guyWait what, I didn't know that. Makes sense with the art style though
>>143357795>>143351779>>143350755Supremely based
>>143347561Okay /co/ which of these had it worst than the rest? I think the one left of Greg is a schizo with a divorce family but I don’t know the rest to cast judgement
>>143349121do zoomzooms really have hair like this
>>143356287These books took place very close to my middle school, and the author lived nearby. I always assumed they were just a small local thing
