After the disappointment of the new Voltron cartoon (Seriously... could they make it ANY more dull or clichéd, and the animation looks like it's escaped from 1993) this gives me a little hope for the new Thundercats.
And jump to 4:00 for the BEST "Context is for the weak" moment I've seen in a LONG time...
Looking at her eye design, Cheetara looks like she's escaped from an episode of Jem!
Wily-Kit and Wily-Kat are less annoying than I was expecting... so far. I'll be interested to see how they continue that arc.
In looking for legality scans to go with this, I found two of the most stylistically mismatched covers I think I've ever come across... The DC/Image crossover which I assume was in two parts
First up the collectors variant cover of Bop/Thundercats by Alex Ross, where Lion-O seems to be channelling his inner KISS fan more than usual

And this is the other half, which may include the sleaziest Lion-O I've ever seen (and that's not a word I'd ever have thought to use to describe him) by J Scott Campbell.

Hey, but they have the Young Justice DVD coming out on 7/19 (preorders being taken now kids!) to maximize on the DVD sales!

(btw the tenth is, bizarrely, available on itunes I think)

(My apologies to anyone I've ever growled at for showing what I thought was leaked or pirated items in their entirety not realizing what could be seen on iTunes - glimpses are okay. It's a sore spot around here when my husband has had copyrighted material used without compensation. Yes, we are talking to you, a certain reality show that rhymes with 'Mersey Whore')
