Description This was a gag I've had in mind for a couple weeks, and despite other commissions and deadlines on my table, I decided to take time to put this down on paper. As a child of the 80's, I enjoyed The Real Ghostbusters. But it was a guilty pleasure that I watched shows like Jem as well. Being able to draw these Saturday morning icons today, when I'm no longer the eleven year old kid who dreamed of being a cartoonist, but instead the 37 year old professional cartoonist, just feels good.

Well, from what I read, Bruce Timm had Aquaman done that way to follow the semi-gritty tone the series was pushing at the time.

In any case, TB&TB has some good moments -- one of the ep openers having Bats work with Space Ghost against the Creature King was pure Crossover GOLD! -- though I'll admit the whole "Ol' Chum" persona on Aquaman got a little grating at times... especially when he started singing. >.<

But overall, the series was fun to watch.

You're lucky you could move afterwards! That stuff will bulletproof your hair until the coming of judgement day! Scratch that...cockroaches and Aquanet-shellacked hair will be the only survivors of the apocalypse!

The Apocalypse will be brought to us by Johnson and Johnson! NO More Tears!

Stuff's good for nailing flies, too, if you don't want to squash'em.

It'd be like those mosquitoes encased in amber from Jurassic Park!

When I was growing up, I use to watch the animated version of Ghostbuster.

I enjoyed both versions--the Filmation-produced GHOSTBUSTERS, and the DIC produced REAL GHOSTBUSTERS. I preferred REAL, but they both had their moments!

I think the one I watched was the one from the 80's. Mostly as repeats since I was born in 1989.

Yeah, they both came out around 1986-97. They were competing shows.

Wasn't there an episode where their TV got hit by lighting and it brought all the cartoon characters to life into their world?

I think so! I only remember a few of the episodes kinda well.

Aqua net is sticky stuff. Slimer is never going to get all that hair out of his mouth.

The '80s were a time of spectacular hair!

Indeed! Big hair from the 80's and 90's is the most fun to draw!

Oh my... Poor Jem. Her beautiful hair D:
I didn't get the chance to watch this show when I was a kid but now there's this channel where all 80's cartoons are...
I hope I'll have it someday so I'll be able to see those cartoons! Most of them are sooo much better than what kids watch on tv today.

And that is why Ghostbusters is not aired on the Hub.
