I really love this authors take on cinderellas crying face.

Really summoning up that classic "RageFace" comics look.

The other day I even saw the style used in a Euro comic:

I was thinking more Ren and Stimpy aesthetics.

You know, that's a good Q-- did the "RageFace" comics borrow much of that style & energy from Ren and Stimpy...?

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Because rage comics are old enough that the people making them were watching Ren and Stimpy as kids, and even the ones that didn't were watching plenty of the weird af cartoons that took inspiration from them.

Now many people read this with the "godfather voice" in their head?

[–] nathanjent@programming.dev 6 points 1 day ago (1 child)

Yes. But not the actual actor's voice. the one from some bit in Animaniacs or some other animated parody I've seen.

Anastasia (the redhead) actually turned out to be not so bad in the sequels. Get rid of the other two, though.
