Yes, I have a bone to pick with Cartoon Network and it's Powerpuff Girls related.
No it has nothing to do with the Recent Special that was meh, at best.
IDW makes the Powerpuff Girls comics (as well as other comics for other brands like Hasbro's Transformers, G.I.Joe and My Little Pony.) Well, the 6th Issue of Powerpuff girls has a variant cover mandated by Cartoon Network...
Can you see what's wrong here?
For some reason I am being reminded of Equestria Girls.
The Powerpuff Girls are supposed to be kindergartners... yet these girls seem to be way too developed for their age.
The worst thing about this is that CARTOON NETWORK were the ones that imposed this on IDW. This is not some crazy fan art about more "grown up" Powerpuffs. This is Art that Cartoon Network OKd and gave thumbs up to.
This cover is giving a warped and twisted view to the PPG...
This could be twisted into Professor Utonium being far more creepier than the default version... Seriously, who Fabricates "Perfect Little Girls" in a Laboratory???
Look at the pic at the left and now look at the animated .gif that shows the normal art style. The scale between the girls and Mojo Jojo is not too different. The girls are slightly taller in the Comic Cover to give them longer legs that are considered sexy on females of legal age. Do I need to point out the breasts?
Basically it's Teenage Bodies on 6 year old girls...
It's disturbing... and I mean Toddlers and Tiaras disturbing.
Damn! That was fast!! Cartoon Network got this infamous variant cover to be taken down and replaced...
Now that they have shot down the cover, there isn't that much to rant about. Well, This now shot down cover reminds me why Powerpuff Girls cannot work as Live Action... Then again, we've seen Live action Adaptations of cartoons that should have NEVER BEEN Live Action movies...
