    Kind of feel like Freakzoid was a gateway to Deadpool, almost a kid’s version. It does really hold up surprisingly well.

      Outrage is a webcomic on Weebtoons made by Deadpool cocreator Fabian Nicieza- It stats with a creepy stalker sending threatening texts to a woman when a glowing red man climbs out of his phone and beats the tar out of him. It is very much what if Freakazoid was made by the writer of Deadpool. o clue if it will get a 2nd season but a good comic

    2 things can be done with this super show:
    1.- Take the same show, fill it with 80's and 90's references and you have the recipe for nostalgia. And as we all know nostalgia is a good way to sell stuff (merchandise, books, comics, software, etc.) The bad news from my point of view is that the show still is focused on us born in the 80's or 90's.
    2.- Take the same show and parody the internet life, the trolls, facebook, twitter, etc. as the show did in the beginning and Voila! you have a proper reboot of Freakazoid.

    Animal Psychologist: "Meow meow meow?"
    Mr. Chubbikins: "Meow, meow."
    Animal Psychologist: "Meow?"
    Mr. Chubbikins: "Meow meow."
    Animal Psychologist: "He says he's very sad."
    Guitierrez: "Oh, go away."
    And the simple: "I've got a bowl! Good for me!"

    Closest me and the other Redditor discovered was a game called Hyperman but we remember the catapult launching from the lower left of the screen to the upper right to the castle. Still feels like a Freakazoid game should still be out there. Similar style as the old Ace Ventura game.
