re-imagined cartoons
obligatory preface: (oh! so THAT'S what OP has stood for all this time {in my mind}.)
I'm not very good with openers. Hello. I've been holding onto this topic's idea / rumination-towards-creation for quite a while now. Actually, let me check: alright, my online note-taking service says I conceived of this topic exactly six months ago, (JULY 2) so I think it's safe to say my procrastination bug is getting worse. All tangents and undue profferations about my scheduling aside, this is "re-imagined cartoons". This rolling & roaming artist's gallery will come to feature old cartoons, comics, a few video game characters here and there, all knotted up and splatted back out anew again to make something of a cool trip. In simpler terms, for the comic aficionados: this topic could be termed to be a junction for the ALTERNATE UNIVERSE angle, played for fan reaction, what-if scenarios, and sometimes, just to see how awesome it would be (super character A) interacted within (brooding character B)'s homeworld. It's a cross-over dimensional stop: simple as that. It seems I've used up all my available time for creation, but I'm just as winded anyway; Let's BEGIN! ... with a bang: - - - - - Godzilla Vs The Transformers, illustrated by Matt Frank.

Reading the comments on Deviantart was funny. Its so obvious that the Autobots will kick Godzilla's ass. I mean if Matthew Broderick could do it..... :P

I seem to also, always, forget this bit: this is an open-discussion thread to whatever may come to pertain;
all commentations, congratulations, and/or catechisms are welcome to come forth, and as stated previously elsewhere and beyond, are wholly encouraged. If you would like to begin a conversation of what would have happened had The Flintstones stayed in the 21 Century, and had gotten accustomed to Rosie's personality, you can begin that posit. In simpler terms: please don't be hestitant to offer your two-bits worth of opinion on this topic's premise. -- (to note: Consider this as an addendum to my OP, if you would/could. Thank you.) - - - - - The New Yorker —

See? Once I miss that opening postulate of comments welcome, well, then, it becomes just a struggle uphill to try to find any matriculating interest whatsoever.
So... maybe another question, is the most likely answer?

... and here is my one half-exception to the rules(s): [truth be told, it's my understanding the comics x novels aspect of the Star Wars franchise seems to be the more hardcore fanbase, although, of course, the two separate film trilogies are, understandably, more "mainstream". /air quotes]

and; continuing with the classic Disney scope x epic Space-Time Futurum, another view on alternate realities with:
Pixar Star Wars by Sillof author's comments: I did these just as an idea. I am not really great at drawing, I generally sculpt, but thought this was a fun idea and decided to post them with the release of Toy Story 3. At first I just filled in the drawings with solid colors, but later decided to try filling it with various textures, I actually like the effect. I drew the characters traditionally, scanned them, and then filled in the textures using Microsoft paint (Photoshop would have been better but I don’t have it.) I plan on sculpting all them into maquettes or figures. + bonus -- courtesy of kottke.

Princess Layover, by AH! author's comments: (Adam Hughes) This is a convention sketch I did for Carrie Fisher, back in November 2006 in NYC. We were seated next to each other, and every time she had to leave her table she had to bump behind my chair, apologizing. We ended up having fun, so I did this sketch for her. STAR WARS was a very big deal for me growing up!

Venture Time! author's comments: (H. Caldwell Tanner) Owen and I were discussing two of our favorite cartoon shows (Adventure Time and Venture Brothers) and I mentioned to him that I wanted to make fan art for both, but didn’t have time. He suggested this unique compromise. So yeah, please enjoy! Caldy P.S. – Also watch Adventure Time, it is the best.

Someone already took venture Bros. So Bleach. They often add fillers that differ from the manga and have no relevance or meaning to the main story (which of course is really annoying, altho they've been moving forward lately.) So its ironically a reimagined "old" cartoon/anime that's being reimagined as they write the real story. Because of the delay in the manga being published. Actually now that I think of it, it seems odd that a cartoon/anime can be animated faster than a manga.

Think about it: the only real step in making a tv show from a comic book is to colorize and animate it. They (the producers, writers) don't need to do much of anything besides because the original authors have already provided dialogue, scenery, plot, conveyance, & above all, familiarity. Moving onto your "cartoon surpassing the comic"... this happens regularly because although some stories are picked up for television in the early or middle stages of the greater plot, the tv episodes can combine/condense around 2-3 "chapters" of the comics every 1 week. So it's gaining by a factor of 2 oe 3; even moreso if the originating source was not a weekly feature, (which is grueling work for an author, to imagine a continuance, sketch the framework, and add dozens of pertaining character reference points) but one that comes out only once every month. Citing a choice example from anime: The first animated series of Full-Metal Alchemist (2004?) can be likened to a re-imagining. Up until the 15th or 16th episodes, it remained somewhat faithful to its predecessor manga origins, but at that time, the manga was nowhere near its running feature completion, so it was an installed architecture from the beginning that the televised version would have a divergent (origin) story. and ending, than what could be considered the canonical (the original monthly comic chapters of FMA). To me, the compact original anime version of FMA actually made a heck of a whole lot more sense than what I remembered of the manga's eventual concluding plot arcs (I stopped around chapter 85 or so). Darn. That's a lot of words. I didn't mean to get so invested. - - - Quick one: How Star Wars, Star Trek, The Matrix, and Harry Potter are Actually the Same Movie

The hilarious thing is that Lincoln was actually fairly famous for being able to more or less pick someone up and throw them twelve feet across the room, or just keep hitting them until they gave up.

Gimme A Beat! by Cliff Chiang author's comments: If you read any X-Men comics in the 80′s, you probably have a soft spot for mohawk Storm. I also have a soft spot for Janet Jackson, so the two seem like a natural fit. I actually pencilled this last year, but only recently got around to inking and coloring it. + BONUS Hey, if you’re in the Seattle area this weekend, I’ll be appearing at the Emerald City Comicon, March 4-6. Come find me at table D-17! I’ll be doing sketches and will have prints and postcards, too. As a reminder, my commission list fills up pretty fast so try to find me early. On Saturday I may take names for Sunday as well. See you there!
