Zore posted:Yeah, shocking too since she originally debuted in the show X-Men: Evolution alongside other classic characters like Spyke- Storm's nephew with bone powers I guess. Sort of... He was in X-Statix (with an "i", not a "y") and bears no resemblance to the cartoon version outside of being black and having a similar power set. Looking further Grant Morrison introduced another X-Man named spike but I can find almost nothing on him, outside of the fact that looked nothing like the other versions.

Though it's worth noting that Hickman's Starband takes a lot more from Warren Ellis' newuniversal version from the mid-00's than the original version.

I thought Little Lulu might have been based on Nancy but apparently she's directly inspired by the comic strip character Henry (originally Lulu didn't speak). But Lulu was originally drawn as being really skinny and not very short, so she became more Nancy-like over time. Also she stopped doing things like this:

Lurdiak posted:Like you can poo poo on that show all you like, it honestly deserves it, but the voice cast was A+. Hobgoblin: Luke Skywalker War Machine: Uncle Phil J. Jonah Jameson: Ed fuckin Asner Shocker: Winnie the Pooh Venom: Apu / Moe Beyonder: The psychiatrist from the Terminator flicks Rhino: Donna's dad from That 70s Show Iron Man: pilot from Airplane! Scorpion: Bull from Night Court, took over from Martin Landau Tombstone: Guy from Full Metal Jacket refused by a Vietnamese hooker because his dong was too big Baron Mordo: Tony the Tiger Vulture: Green Acres Randy Robertson: CARLTON BANKS Jackal: Dr. Smith from Lost in Space Felicia Hardy's mom: the whorish southerner Golden Girl Wong: George Takei Dr. Strange: Dean from Animal House The show is actually really well done, for the most part, except: - No one really .. punches anyone. - No one dies or whatnot; they 'disappear'. - Why is Doc Ock ripped? - The animation is super cheap. There are entire sequences that are completely unintelligible because of animation recycling. - The dialogue is sometimes good, sometimes decent, and sometimes cringey: "... my friend: IRON MAN!" - Mary Jane is a bad character who should've been thrown off the bridge in the first episode But then, Roscoe Lee Browne's Kingpin voice is perfect, and the choice to give Ock a German accent is an amazing touch. The score is loving outstanding.

Red posted:Hobgoblin: Luke Skywalker I think the biggest problem with the show (besides the animation maybe) is how it's edited. They take all the natural pauses out of the dialogue in editing, making conversations and sentences flow unnaturally fast, and the action is equally unnaturally abbreviated. It makes things incredibly hard to follow sometimes and makes other things just kinda sucky and confusingly fast. BTAS knew to let a scene breathe so it could sink in. It was even worse in syndication, if you can believe it.

Yeah, the show was only greenlit to piggyback off a movie that never ended up being made. Sandman was going to appear and die in the film, and that's why Sandman never showed up in the cartoon. Spidey didn't get an origin story until season 2 or 3, and they tied it into their adaptation of The Boy Who Collected Spider-man. E: Another double post!
