Gag Me With A Toon
April 2, 2008 12:30 pm
Meltdown Comics in Hollywood is celebrating the “wonderfully mesmerizing phenomenon of ’80’s era cartoons” with a gallery show opening this Saturday (4/5). Gag Me With A Toon features a fine array of artists (including Jim Mahfood, Roman Dirge and 24 others) re-interpreting their favorite little blue creatures and transforming robots from that mind numbing decade, in a show show curated by artist Steven Daily. Sneak peek online here. |

This looks so amazingly cool, I wish I could go! The preview art is insane. I love that smurf, it’s absolutely perfect. Why does all the awesome stuff go down in Cali? Share with New York!
…Yeah, but none of them will compare to that UNICEF ad from a couple of years ago, where we Smurf-haters finally got what we’ve all wanted to see – the Smurfs getting bombed into near-extinction!
Is it just me, or has messing with cartoon characters become beyond redundant? Might have had an impact a million years ago when MAD did it, but 2008?
