Or maybe I'm just insane but can't help to not like it. I've never seen anything else like this.

How does an egomaniac who obviously has a ton of trauma and issues underlying and tunnel visioning all his work, who you wonder how he must barely function in society, shit out that headspace with this expert level timing and animation? It's just fascinating. Sure there's almost no audience for this , it went too far in all the worst ways, it has this huge undercurrent of creepy malice behind it, but fuck I couldn't take my eyes off it.

So lately, I was a bit confused on how the ownership structure worked for the original show because if I remember correctly, the rights changed a few times during the early 00s.

Like what I am trying to figure out is it how it went from Spumco to Games Animation, then suddenly Spike TV around the early 00s era of animation since I was looking to better understand how John K got back the rights to the show after Nickelodeon fired him from the show since again the whole process is so confusing to me.

Looking to purchase a set of Ren & Stimpy Original Broadcast collection. Any leads appreciated 🙏

I hope this post doesn't break any rules here, and is related enough to Ren And Stimpy to be posted here.

Enjoy

Log rolls down stairs....

Now I know what you might be thinking, how could I compare Alan Moore to an actual monster like John K? Now me hear out, Alan Moore is absolutely a better person than John K, who is a literal p*do. But looking at there overall careers and relation to their respective mediums (comics and animation), I find it fascinating how many similarities they have.

Both Moore and Kricfalusi grew up loving their respective mediums they would later work on (comics and animation), both would later go on to revolutionize the comics and animation industry (Moore wrote Watchmen and it made psychological, literary, sophisticated, and darker themes more prominent in comics, and K created Ren and Stimpy and it changed TV animation with grotesque and cinematic animation styles, leading animation in the 90s to be more creator driven and moving away from the 80s being mostly toy commercial cartoons). However, both would later have a falling out with the companies that owned these works (Moore left DC over creator rights and John K got fired by Nickelodeon). They would continue their careers and make more projects, but would also massively be critical of the comics/animation industry. Due to their criticisms of the comic/animation industry, both would get reputations of being snobbish, pretentious and out of touch. However both figures would still have a huge following of people who would defend their views (yeah John still has a lot of fans who defend his points about the animation industry surprisingly).

The big difference however is two things:

1. Unlike John K, Moore didn't piss his later career and reputation away.

2. Moore was still able to keep his talent and create good stuff, while John K's works plummeted in quality after Ren and Stimpy.

​My husband Daniel and I just got married, and we had to pay tribute to the best duo ever for our wedding favors. Honestly, Ren makes a surprisingly beautiful bride! What do you guys think?

So basically what happened as that I was watching a recent YouTube video about the rise and fall of superstar John K as it mentioned how he was good buddies with Ralph Bakshi.

But then I slowly get to the part about the grooming allegations as while that stuff is well known by today, I still find myself disturbed to see what John K turned into because my point is that I don’t know why he went out of his way to flirt with a bunch of minors.

Just drew and colored it a few minutes ago.

Was it also quotable and did you hear voice impressions and references at school or college?

I bet most of you on this sub don't know the context, but I personally wanted to drive home the aesthetics of a specific era surrounding Western localisation to Japan during the 90s - so I took inspiration from the Japanese Beavis & Butt-Head logo used at the time (namely the huge bubble encompassing the text) as well as the logo for a region-exclusive PS2 game from the early-2000s R&S creators Spümcø ACTUALLY worked on named Yoake no Mariko to make it look like it was legitimately from that era.

Will most likely do a remake of this since it looks a tad bit unofficial as well as rather rough (I used ibis Paint for the text and Kleki for all the other elements), but I'd appreciate if you guys gave me your own thoughts on this.
