Sixth post. It should be the eighth. Abrieframbleaboutcartoonsandcomics.

To be honest, I’m not very in the mood of writing about this so I’ll be quick. As comics as cartoons were present at my childhood, because there was a time they were GREAT.

Starting with the cartoons, which have had a most notorious regression through the years, I grew up with the extinct (R.I.P.) Fox Kids and the old Cartoon Network, with the Insomnia’s nights and fantastic shows as Pinky and the Brain, Courage the coward dog among others. Not the nowadays shows that are rubbish (except for a few passable shows).  At the national channels, I watched the Simpsons and 31 minutes, which I don’t really know if it is considered a cartoon.

About the comics, I also loved to read them, and comics as Lucky Luke or Asterix and Obelix were on my bookshelf. I never have read the superhero comic’s, I guess because I didn’t get the chance. I don't remember Lucky Luke's author but the main character was a cowboy that used to wander the Western towns solving problems.  Hervé was the author of Asterix and Obelix, two village french who fought Julio Cesar's army with a secret potion that makes them invincibles. We never know why we like things, we just like it.

Nowadays, the kids play League of Legends from nine or ten years old and have lost the interest for “kid’s channels” and television in general and talking about comics didn’t make sense. I think the computer era is beating hard. And the thing goes beyond the television or books.
