Now, for something a bit more crazy and bloody

Short comic inspired by Roger Rabbit and the (terrible) movie Cool World.

I love the idea of cartoons living among people. I even wanted to do my own comic about that. Then again, that was a bit of an 80's fad. Though they are saying a second part to Roger Rabbit is in the making.

Cool World, in my opinion, would have been better if they followed the original idea.

Cool World was pitched to Paramount Pictures as an animated horror film. The concept of the film involved a cartoon and human having sex and conceiving a hybrid child who visits the real world to murder the father who abandoned him. Paramount Pictures "bought the idea in ten seconds" to oppose the fame of Roger Rabbit. Then proceeded to change the movie like hell and turn it into the piece of crap we currently have. Pity.

Roger Rabbit still rocks hard.

Don't have sex with cartoons.

It's bad for the balance of the universe.

Great comic. I'm mildly curious how an (I assume) American toon lady would hook up with an otaku. Most hard core otakus I've met would sooner die than watch a non-Japanese toon, let alone procreate with one LOL.


It totally sucks that Cool World ended up being such a mess. I could kind of understand if the studio had changed it to be more kid-friendly (family films make more money). But the finished product is still R-rated and not safe for kids to watch at all! So why didn't they just go with the horror movie angle?

Mysterious are the ways of executive meddling. I mean, seriously. The suggestions some meddlers have. I remember reading on Neil Gaiman's blog that someone though it would be cool if they made a version of Sandman where the endless were actually gangsters and not near-immortal entities. Yeep.

There's fans of everything everywhere. Just as there is obsessive shoujo fans here, there must be a toon fan in japan.
