Why don’t comic book characters who’s whole identity is being cartoony, look cartoony anymore?
>>154875304Cause comic book artists don’t know how to cartoon anymore, during the golden age of comics artists were huge fans of stuff like Fleischer and Looney Tunes and would regularly doodle them on their own time, even 90’s comic book artists like Paul Dni and Kyle Baker were fans of that stuff, heck, Batman TAS looked so good cause Bruce Timm not only knew his shit about comics but because he also had experience in cartooning. Capeshit artists are inspired by exclusively other comics now.In MAWS case the show is ran by people who watch nothing but anime and want every male character to be husbandobait, they couldn’t even make Bizarro look ugly.
>>154875304Because the industry is ran by people who hate comics and only want to push woke shitThough the last example was just them ripping off of dragonball like they did with 18
>>154875405>artists were huge fans of stuff like Fleischer and Looney TunesThat's what I'm thinking. As a spumchud who could care less for capeshit, even I know Bruce Timm had taste.
Cartoons today are made by people who don't watch cartoons. Case in point with MAWS and just modern cartoons in general.
>>154875435Sucks too, when was the last modern cartoon that actually took inspiration from R&S? There was a brief period during the 00s when everyone wanted to be the next SpongeBob, but even that isn't taken inspiration from as much anymore.
>>154875425>Bruce Timm had tasteThe biggest mistake WB made was hiring Gunn instead of Timm to craft their movie universe.
>>154875464At the very least, Timm got to lead the animated universe. I'll give props to WB for making that its own continuity.
>>154875470Not sure I would trust him to play it straight after the race and gender-swapping with that Batman show he did for Amazon, but he is good at keeping multiple plates spinning.
>>154875490>the race and gender-swapping with that Batman show he did for AmazonKEK, I think I know what you're talking about. It's the one where they turned Penguin into Jim Sterling, right? Those threads were hilarious.
>>154875304The OG Howard was literally just Donald Duck
>>154875445The Patrick Star Show has a lot of Spumco energy in it and is surprisingly entertaining and funny
>>154875304You can’t learn on the job the way you used to, but you can learn enough online to get the job done.
>>154875669Couldn't agree more. I'd consider it to be the modern-day Nu-Mighty Mouse.
>>154875505Looking at this early art of him, I can see why Disney would want them to change the design, he looks just like Donald.
>>154875740Except Marvel's owned by Disney now, so I see no point in changing his design.
>>154875755>I want Marvel to go back to Howard looking like Donald, who smokes and swears now that they are owned by the same people who made Donald in the first placeI don't know what to tell you, anon.
>>154875791Have him cosplay as Deadpool? It's the only way I can think of to get around the no smoking/swearing rule.
We still have him
>>154875803But why, though? Marvel has spent almost 30 years trying to make Howard his own thing, then being Donald, and that was before being owned by Disney. >>154875855That's because the whole point of Peter Porker in Spider-Verse is being in a cartoon world, which is why he isn't used much in cartoons or movies.
>>154875740They can change his design while still making him look cartoony, like they can make him look the way he did in his first appearance.
>>154875304Well the first two are a case of "let's make this silly cartoon character le serious/scary because the originals were too silly and i, a genius writer, wanna subvert some expectations"The last one is just a natural result of the show being made by a bunch of weeb fujos whose target audience is women
>>154875405>>154876158MAWS has that Hazbin Hotel problem where every character is designed to be somebody’s waifu or husbando, and safe horny ones at that.
>>154876412STAS Mxy and MAWS Mxy both share the primary "cartoonish" element of an undersized body compared to their head (STAS to a greater extent).
>>154876555>>154876555Nigger STAS Mxy literally had a Jessica Rabbit-like wife and tons of cartoon gags, MAWS Mxy is just an elf twink with magic powers cause fujos prefer that over a funny looking cartoon character
Has this kind of shit ever happened to the Mask comics.
>>154875855Why is he wet?
>>154875304Howard looked too much like Donald Duck and Marvel was not owned by Disney yet. Now that Disney owns Marvel they want Howard to look distinct from Donald.
>>154878978They could’ve just made him look like>>154875942
>>154875304>why don't they look cartoonydon't know about the top or middle but the bottom one is definitely because the animators for superman decides they want to gay bait for the entire show and that's literally just a whis fill in
>>154876412>safe hornyThis is a retarded phrase to have something to complain about. Some designs in the show do suck like Live Wire.
>>154877061Which is extra dumb because anime isn't as adverse to funny looking cartoon gremlins either. MAWS is a very specific, idealized version of anime, with any element that isn't "beautiful" being sanded off entirely. Imagine making something in the vein of ghibli, but without any old people or any of the disturbing monsters the studio has to offer. That's basically MAWS.
>>154875304why is the mxyzptlk from the superman for foids show dressed like some sort of buddhist monk instead of at least being a elf twink in a suit
>>154879958It's a real phenomenon. It's fine if it doesn't bother you but it's something identifiable that does exist.
mxyzptlk still looks like mxyzptlk in the comics
>>154881146Ok redditard
