Is Villainous Dead?
>>152745853Probably. It's so fucking unfair, it was the only good thing produced in the last decade and a half.
>>152745853At CN it seems that way. The books are still coming out though. But I don't know what happened to the Youtube series.
>>152745853what is with the fugly designs? and why do I still want to fuck them?
I have a Need for Heed
>>152747030be nice to the 3 eyed ginger and Tengu nosey mommy
>>152746183>But I don't know what happened to the Youtube series.>They said it was coming in mid to late 2025 >March 2026 and still nothing It's dead
>>152748906The radio silence is worrying, but people like Gerry still have it in their list of work, so at least one episode has to release eventually
>>152748906A shame
>>152745853Might hear something soon
>>152750577I sure hope so.

>>152745853>S1 comes out>Nothing happens, not even S2 news>Now the show is quietly cancelled, with the creator getting the rights backSo what happened? With all the cameos in the marketing and later in the show, this clearly was supposed to be the next big thing.
>>152752919Alan never lost the rights which is why he is still able to do Villainous stuff. He just had to shift gears hard with all the Warner bullshit that was/is affecting everybody and had to cut out the Warner/CN stuff. Not a big loss really as that stuff was mostly just dressing and he has plenty of his own fun looking characters that fill the world.
>>152746183>The books are still coming out though.Where? How can I buy them in English?
>>152745853Probably. Cartoon Network fucked it by never giving it a full global release.
>>152751416>>152752528>We have no personality, follow us instead
>>152752919>this clearly was supposed to be the next big thing.CN utterly refused to do anything with the show outside of South America and tried to force Victor and Valentino as their Mexican representation. The Youtube shorts and the V&V crossover episode was all we ever got over here.I fully believe the series would have been huge if CN didn't kneecap it.
>>152745853Did it ever live?
>>152753976I miss her.
>>152753976>CN utterly refused to do anything with the show outside of South America and tried to force Victor and Valentino as their Mexican representationI really don't get what the fuck Cartoon Network was thinking with this. Did they think they could only have one Mexican show on their network and that's it? If so then who the fuck made them think it should be Victor and Valentino of all things?
>>152754361Probably "one of those" expensive advisors trained in "cultural sensitivities" or something idk. Really terrible time period all-around.
>>152754361I don’t think the show is supposed to be set in Latin America per se?
>>152754361>>152754406>>152754440We won't know for sure what goes through the executives' heads or what happened behind the scenes... But it wasn't just this show; the same could be said of Frankelda, Any Malu, Rey Mysterio, etc...whose treatment by broadcasting studio was almost identical; just with some of those could go ahead in their own ways...
>>152745853Yeah. Cartoon Network hated this series for some reason despite the large fandom it had since the shorts. >>152745890There was Smiling Friends, but that's dead now too, though at least the creators got to choose to be done with that which is a good thing. It's sad that animation is probably actually dead.
I don't think the show is dead, but I think we are in a delicate moment, we no longer have the financial support we used to so that is being seen in the unusual silence of the staff, for now we have statements from one of the members that the project is still ongoing, and they may tell us something tomorrow since it is the creator's birthday
>>152755778Didn’t even know it was his birthday because he’s stopped having a social media presence for a year
>>152753964>Didn't read the comic
>>152755778Oh neat. Hope we get something
>>152746183>>152748906The crew already said that they made a whole season that CN never released (it was 10 more episodes if I remember correctly), Alan was upset during one of his streams saying that CN basically refused to release them or do anything with the IP, he got back the rights for all the characters and can use them freely but with the caveat that they can't use any character that was previously owned by CN or WB, basically forcing them to start from scratch, the new merch that came out last year no longer had the "Copyright CN" logo for example and it only has Alan's name on it, the latest book doesn't have any CN/WB characters either, they obviously don't have enough money to finish the web series, but they got a Patreon right there which they don't use and it doesn't allow people to give them money either the 10 episodes they did for CN are lost media, unless someone leaks them, I mean I won't be shocked if they just use those as "tax write offs" since Alan fully owns all the original characters now
>>152756546
>>152756546They don’t use Patreon? Are we seeing an ‘Ongezellig’ situation?
>>152756546Yeah, they no longer use Cartoon Network's logo's in any of the merch, only Alan's name, he has the copyright of every original character from the show and both the Spanish and English names for the show (as you can see on pic related), but I guess not enough money to actually do anything or even finish the web series
>>152756566
>>152748329
>>152751416>>152756635
>>152753835CN fucked it by never releasing the full series despite season 2 being animated for years now, they were nice enough to give the creator full rights to do whatever he wanted, but if they didn't wanted the show in the first place why even bother then?
>>152756648
>>152756793Hopefully next time Flug takes the kid gloves off with her

>>152756546>he got back the rights for all the characters and can use them freely but with the caveat that they can't use any character that was previously owned by CN or WBSo he still has Flug, Black Hat, Demencia, 505, and every other character he created
>>152757824Yes, they show up in the books and the calendars, the 2025 calendar and book had them as well
>>152757843GoodStop trying to force the failgirl thieves on us after years of the fun brightly colored characters All kinds of opportunities to introduce them as interesting characters instead of Temu Skullgirls and Alan blew it
>>152756582>>152757734
>>152757871
>>152754361My personal theory is that CN was just trying to check boxes and Victor & Valentino was aggressively Mexican in a nice boring way that an old out of touch executive would understand while Villainous was a show about supervillains with a unique art style and humor that might piss off soccer moms and didn't shove borderline offensive stereotypes in your face.
>>152758068I'm glad they used the best Eris design for that cameo, her design got more toned down as the show went on
>>152756546>they got a Patreon right there which they don't use and it doesn't allow people to give them money eitherReally? I saw some suscription tiers, but its true they haven't uploaded anything since November 2025
>>152758087
>>152758093They seem more focused on merch which i think is fine since otherwise what's left goes up in flames and into the void.
>>152757925She cute
>>152758018Basically, they wanted Mexico but not the Mexicans

>>152758295Very common.

>>152757664XD
>>152757804>Did read the comic>They're bland afMedia illiteracy at its finest, fellas.
>>152757689What exactly do you mean, anon?
>>152758556Something I liked about the comic was that both characters showed what it's like to be a low-level villain in this world. They had no respect, no resources, and of course, they took a few beatings, but they used their cunning and skill to come out on top in a believable way.And for a comic starring two women, the fact that you feel their achievements are genuine and not just a plot device is something to applaud.
>>152758515
>>152758683Very true.
>>152758683Yeah, the comic got me to like Illuminarrow. She's got guts and nice tits
>>152758847Fat
>>152758946There's something about that image that intrigues me, and that's the reason for its existence. I mean, the composition and drawing are great, but I keep wondering why these characters were placed in that specific context. The only theory I have is that it's a reference to a scene from The Simpsons, but I still don't understand why.
>>152757925
>>152758331
>>152759147it is a mystery
>>152758683I thought it was funny Mawrasite leveled up with her parasite abilities through the power of villainous friendship. Also kind of interesting since it's implied said parasite is linked to Black Hat's inner circle as the plague doctor guy is the one who did that to her.
>>152759171
>>152758018That does sound about right. One show happened to appeal to what an executive would think would get Cartoon Network brownie points and the other didn't. But it just feels so wasteful for them to fully do the show but then refuse to dub it. You'd think the dubbing would be the finish line effectively compared to the expenses in animating.
>>152759348Jelly ass
>>152758295Pretty much yeah. They didn't actually want Mexican media or even anything that appeals to Hispanic people just something that someone at a glance could instantly see had Mexicans in it. So a show about two little spics eating tacos and hunting chupacabras in Mexico made by some dude from California got three seasons while the genuinely interesting Spanish language show got swept under the rug.>>152759588I genuinely think they were afraid of it catching on for whatever reason and killed it in its infancy on purpose. Maybe they just didn't think it fit CN's image at the time?
>>152745853I hate how badly CN treated this show. It was well made AND popular, but they threw it in the trash; it’s unbelievable that there’s still episodes that the suits for some reason don’t feel like releasing.
>>152759697In their defense, only once, it really felt like an adult swim show with all profanity taken from it.
>>152759203Based
>>152759985I would say more that it was kind of between a 2000's CN show and an AS show.Either way it didn't fit the aggressively bland image CN had going on in the mid-2010's to early 2020's.
>>152760047Well, at least Alan got the rights back, only for his things, so it's not forever shelved unless Alan decides to give up entirely on anything related to it one day. I don't know if I want the show back even with someone else funding it since Alan already got lucky by keeping the character rights once. He could very well not be so lucky next time. Fuck. More could very well mean nevermore if it gets cancelled again.
>>152758683>Gerph is an industry whore nowGood for him, seriously.
>>152759065Good
>>152748906The info we got during May of last year was: >Ties of Thieves will maybe have an elaborated opening to explain all the previous events (since they can't directly reference the stuff CN owns)>The tone of the show will be way more mature than the original series>the art style for the animation is an upgrade from the main show, and they will try that to be the art style from Villainous from now on>the art style will keep improving and being polished, they don't want it to just be a motion comic but something more>If Ties of Thieves does well, it can be dubbed to other languages >Episodes will be around 20 minutes long>There will be a good balance between comedy and action so there's no mood whiplash>The episodes will release depending on how the production develops, how many views they get and how well it does overall (they need LOTS of money for the animation and dubs obviously), there isn't a regular release date so each episode might take a year or more to release >First episode should be coming at the end of this year >They'll need to upload it twice (First in Spanish then English) since they don't have enough subs for multiple audio tracks Also: >Coming Soon Yeah... good one
>>152760165Girlfailure fails even at delivering on time.
>>152760082Looking at it from an optimistic point of view, it's good to know that Alan is so dedicated to his project and its success, and also that we're lucky he can still work on the franchise after leaving Warner Bros., but we are at a delicate point...Maybe we can still pull through. I mean, people are still talking about the show, and many other projects were able to be completed after years on hiatus. We just need a stroke of luck.
>>152760047>>152759985I think Villainous to me looked and felt more like a web cartoon series (even though it started out as one) or an indie Video game, fan or a fan artist's original character webcomic or visual novel in term to character designs, humor along with references and cameos to more modern cartoons, than a cartoon network or even an Adult Swim show.
>>152760765>Villainous gamean adventure game centered around the gang performing whatever task Blackhat gives them could be interesting
>>152760975I'd like a fighting game like Marvel vs. Capcom or SNK, but with a villainous theme. There are quite a few characters who could have interesting move sets.
>>152760975That or even just being a villain in the world trying to climb up the hierarchy. Black hat would be treated in a similar manner as eldritch gods are in lovecraft stories>>152761346Fighting game could be neat. Mawrasite could have a berserk mode ala Dark Phoenix if you build enough meter

it's over villainousisters....we lost....
>>152769802Seriously, it's needed. I mean, we have pages and pages of Rule 34 dedicated to her. What we really need is more variety. Arrow and Mawrasite barely have a few dozen images between them, and there are many other villains who don't have a single image.

>>152771914Honestly, considering the background of those behind the video, it seems more like a tantrum from two recently hired mediocre employees than a formal statement against the creator.
>>152756546>The crew already said that they made a whole season that CN never releasedWhy tho?
>>152772584Some bullshit tax deduction, the same reason they didn't want to release Coyote vs Acme
>>152772681jews ruin everything
>>152753976>Victor and ValentinoThat show was a fucking mistake.
>>152775223JESUS THEY'RE SO HOT
>>152775870You have to admit it takes a lot of talent to make two girls with such unconventional appearances so fuckable at the same time. I mean, look at Mawrie, she's adorable even for a girl with no boobs and a SpongeBob nose.
>>152759147>>152759248It's a subtle joke
>>152776321And the giant killer parasite chest cavity, but maybe some people are into that
>>152745890True. It wasn't great but it was definitely the last Cartoon Network show that respected the lost self-referential spirit of the channel.
>>152765263>>152777438I really like her shadow hair.
>>152777438Cute
>>152756582Artist?
>>152745853Villainous is cool and all but Black Hat himself is such a fucking cringy, tryhard juvenile character. So much of the shorts were just about how cooler and tougher he is than everybody and him beating up more famous CN characters, it's embarrassing. I wanna plap the slime girl's butt though.
>>152779156>Villainous is cool and all but Black Hat himself is such a fucking cringy, tryhard juvenile character.Yeah, I mean, I think they realized that Blackbeard wasn't working as a central character, and that's why they started focusing more on other characters like Flug and Demencia.As for the orientation videos, I think people take them way too seriously, thinking it's just the staff putting down villains from other shows, when it's more of a mockery of the clichés and tropes used to make heroes always win against villains in other programs. Besides, all the orientation videos were made with the supervision of the creators of their respective shows, and some even collaborated on their production, like Ian Jones, and even the creator of Codename: Kids Next Door.>I wanna plap the slime girl's butt thoughOh yeah, I'm sure G-lo's ass applauds when she runs
>>152769333>Flug is embarrassed yet struggling to appear professional (bag hiding face, labcoat with jeans/sneakers)>Demencia is crazy and horny (feral punk with pointy teeth and heterochromia)>505 is a failed monster who's cowardly and cuddly (literal teddy bear, flower growing out of head)>Heed is a villain pretending to be a hero (half-closed eyes you can't trust, sinister seductive poses/mouth)Mention a pair of personality traits for each of the thieves that's obvious from the character design like the cast of Team BH. 3 eyes, demon mask nose, abdomen mouth, these are randomized JRPG fightan game character elements that signify nothing and have no subtle contradictions, and neither their costumes nor hair pop. None of the underworld schmucks stand out. >Oh, but they're cute girls, maybe they're gay for each otherI get no sense of who they are from their designs beyond a vague "well, maybe 3 eyes makes the archer more deadly and the body mouth suggests she's eaten people" but no character traits.
>>152772409These accusations go back years, so unless it's the same exact people this is potentially a legit complaint
>>152780100Potential redesigns:>Illuminarrow: 3 eyes never in sync, clothes are contradictory suggesting difficulty pulling it together outside of archery, haphazard clothing more recognizable as silhouette >Mawrasite: dressed as 1950s Stepford Wife (strong silhouette), a direct contradiction to menacing maw and emphasizing its parasitical nature, more obvious hannya mask faceNow you have suggested character traits as well as a contrast between the two that invites speculation about how they get along beyond bog standard yuri or "starving flatmates" (e.g. Ami/Yumi, Raven/Starfire).This shit isn't rocket science.
>>152758683I honestly think Illuminarrow and Mawrasite are much, much more interesting and likable protags than Black Hat and co.
>>152759065>>152758847the good kind
>>152778126yeah, she is really pretty
It's a shame, but the sooner Villainous is fully dead, the sooner I can steal Icarus' design.
>>152781935which ep is this
>>152781014Absolutely. I've always had a soft spot for bald women and she's somehow got the plus of being bald while also having pretty hair styles. It's a very unique hair situation.
>>152782282Oh yes, she's a beautiful anomaly in character design, like Schrödinger's baldness.Oh, and thanks to her, I started developing a taste for bald girls too.
>>152782165It's from the Samurai Jack villain orientation video; I think it appears in an advertisement for a BHO item enchantment service.So that heroes with enchanted weapons like her don't cause trouble.Speaking of Icarus, given that Alan changed Arrow's design based on the passage of time, do you think she'll also get a redesign if she reappears?
>>152782710probably

I look like and say >>152786171
>>152786728It's curious; I think both work well as a couple and as friends. They're written in such a way that you can choose which of the two options you prefer.Because of things like that, I prefer that the characters don't have canonical sexual orientations.
>>152787151>both work well as a couple and as friendshow all romantic relationships should be
>>152787151>>152787178They have some of the best dynamics in this whole series, they're both kind of dumb in their own ways, but they support each other against all expectations. That's how good friends work, that's how a good couple works. They're just that good together.
>>152787206you are literally defending Wacky Lesbian Hour
>>152788049Eh, WLH is derivative as fuck, like spoonfeeding slop for the mindless masses. This couple feels more earned as we see they both fighting together against the fucked up Villanos' world.
>>152782710She already did, kind of. You can see her in the new year's post from Heed's instagram and in Heedeous Heart that her design is a bit different from the original short(s)- mostly her features have been rounded and simplified.
i'm genuinely surprised there's basically no porn of Illuminarrow and Mawrasite getting fucked by the pig guy.
Hey anyone here yet? They canceled my only class of the day and now I'm stuck until my bus passes again, so because if you want me to draw something related to villainous I'm all ears
