If this ever got an animated series, I wouldn't trust any of the legacy cables networks with it. I would trust Netflix, I know that they have a tack records when it comes to how they handle their animation division but they're the best choice out of the rest.

And for a possible movie, I'd give Sony the right, as long as they release it in theaters.

It's not really a good fit for AS content-wise.
>>
>>153012807
IMO neither was Primal since it's very different compared to what AS is usually airing but shows like Primal are the reason why AS is worth looking into
They'll give almost anyone a chance no matter how different show is from one another, that's AS's novelty. To me at least.

Primal's still a clearly adult-oriented show. Rosebuds doesn't really do any of the things AS is known for. Even light swearing would feel jarring.
>>
>>153012849
No, Primal is VERY much up Adult Swim's alley. Heck, they also aired the final season of Samurai Jack before that, which was also extremely violent compared to the original.

Unless a show is violent or requires profanity, putting it on Adult Swim is just setting the series up for failure.

Common Side Effects, Mike Tyson Mysteries and Unicorn: Warriors Eternal were all different in their approaches. An Adult Swim Rosebuds cartoon would just be like when they aired Baby Blues that one time or any of their other non-toomani anime related acquired shows. Something you air right after the CN block going into the AS block

It never ceases to amaze me how he's managed to do all of this. It's probably not impressive in the grand scheme of things for it being a newspaper comic but I feel really proud and jealous of him.

Consider how many strips have been running for the better part of the past century, either through reruns or passing down to new artists. How many NEW strips can you name from the past 20-30 years that have gotten as much love and attention as quickly as Rosebuds? (Hell, how many new strips can you name, period?)

He actually talked about this in a Twitter post I can't find. Something like how when he got syndicated, he asked if they had any issues with Rosa's boobs, and they were like "Nah, it makes sense to us."

>Common Side Effects, Mike Tyson Mysteries and Unicorn: Warriors Eternal
The first two are VERY adult in their subject matter, and Unicorn was developed as a Cartoon Network show. It was only bumped to adult swim because of a corporate push to turn the network into a Nick Jr.-esque baby channel. But for all intents and purposes it wasn't actually meant to be there.

>An Adult Swim Rosebuds cartoon would just be like when they aired Baby Blues that one time or any of their other non-toomani anime related acquired shows.
Baby Blues is in itself a very weird case. It was originally a show made for The WB, which was a general "all ages" sort of channel, before getting cancelled and having its last few episodes dumped on Adult Swim later on. It's a far cry from being made specifically FOR Adult Swim, which is where my issues lie.

It's part of the larger issues with animation in general, in that we don't really have "all-ages" channels like The WB anymore. What's "for kids" and what's "for adults" is so clearly segmented now that "adult" cartoons need to justify their rating, or else be ignored.

I just don't want Rosebuds to force itself to be more "adult" just for the sake of appeasing the network block its stuck on.

They're only counted because they're basically reboots. Otherwise, it's a grim fate knowing that Rosebuds is the newest comic currently in newspapers.

I noticed on GoComics which hosts Rosebuds, they have other comics that look like webcomics on there
I'm guessing the big wigs are looking into webcomics to try to keep up with today's readers but will "upgrade" any one of them into the Newspapers if they catch the readers attention

So are the parents dead or deadbeats? It does seem like Rosa is the guardian of the other two at least
>>
>>153017081
Deadbeats, or at least CPS was called on them and Maria and Maricela were given to Rosa
We don't know anything about the parents other than that they were very abusive and neglectful of Rosa, which is funny to think because in the old old strips we do see them, they're just average parents but those strips likely aren't canon anymore.
Maria is a rather super upbeat 16 year old for someone would have had to live with those same parents but this could also have been a "The parents have their kids taken away by CPS but instead of fixing their ways the parents just have more kids instead" case and that's why both Maria and Maricela are sort of ignorant to Rosa's upbringing

>this is probably the easiest it's ever been to get picked up by one
Apparently it's the opposite. Newspapers are keeping comics like Peanuts alive in perpetual reruns and older artists are retiring their works and going into reruns, which prevent new artists from breaking into the market. That's why there's so many reboots because it's easier to put an artist on a pre-established comic with a following than take a chance on something new.
>most young artists are on webtoons and/or tapas
Webtoons has incredibly predatorial practices and contracts, young artists will ignore those obvious red flags because of their dream to get paid to make money off of their art.

Except we now know Rosa and Maria were quite close before Maricela was born. (Which would've been when Rosa was 17, so maybe she sued for custody when she turned 18?)

Ah, didn't see this one. I'm guess when Rosa became older and more responsible she felt it was necessary to keep Maricela away from Mom and Dad

It's interesting how much larger Maricela looks when compared to anyone that isn't Rosa. Rosa herself is such a massive freak of nature Mari looks normal in comparison.
