Hell yes!
I’ve discovered Gravity Falls a couple of weeks ago. Approved! It is a grade-A awesome cartoon. Much respect to its creators, they make me laugh without profanity or edgy humor. - Vuk, RR

No more Mickey Mouse street art, please.
I don’t know what the deal is with street artists and their obsession with Mickey Mouse. Allegedly, when you do a monstrous, deformed version of Mickey, it’s insanely cool and edgy, because you’re destroying a symbol of capitalism, product placement, media brainwashing, the evil of Disney, yadda yadda yadda… Everybody does it - not everybody, just an overabundance of artists, which makes it incredibly unoriginal and boring. It’s not rebellious, controversial, or powerful. It’s lazy.
When was the last time you watched a Mickey cartoon? When was the last fucking time you read a Mickey comic book? So why do you draw so many freaky versions of Mickey, what is the fucking point? I’ve read a ton of Mickey comics, and before moving, owned a ton of them. I did one drawing of Mickey since getting into lowbrow art, and it wasn’t edgy or controversial. One was enough, after that - moving on, let’s do new things. There’s been so much of Mickey in lowbrow and street art, that there is no way you can make a version of Mickey so twisted that it would be original, powerful, carry a social message; it’s like a piece of bubble gum that you’ve been chewing on for too long.
Deconstructing Mickey to make yourself seem like an artsy fartsy rebel - gimme a break. You knew that shit jumped the shark when Marilyn Manson overdid it a couple of years ago, and Manson is known for beating a dead horse with an artistick stick.
Conclusion: come up with your own ideas. And if you insist on being socially relevant, find some pop culture symbol that hasn’t been used a million times already. Grow a spine.
NOTE: There are no pictures to go along with this article. That’s because I didn’t want to post any more street art Mickey crap, plus, I prefer Donald Duck.

Magica de Spell VS Scrooge McDuck. December is gonna be a duck-heavy month, as I’m digging up my favorite Carl Barks comics, cause they are just perfect to read around Christmas time.

Scrooge McDuck doing what he does best: being a cheap bastard. Lovely painting/illustration by the genius known as Carl Barks, the comic book author that gave the world many wonderful ducks with a Disney stamp on them.

One of the things I like to do at Christmas time is dig up my old Donald Duck comics. Nothing like getting cozy with some classic Duck adventures, drawn and written by the great Carl Barks.

Darkwing Duck is back in the comic book world! This is the inside cover, a tribute to The Dark Knight Returns. And people say Disney sucks. Come on, I grew up with Disney Ducks, I used to read so much Donald Duck and Scrooge McDuck comics that I would dream of beaks and feathers.

This Halloween, I want you to… NEVER FORGET! The golden locks semi-fro, the manwhore sunglasses, the (wow!) knitted white turtleneck. Today, Justin Timberlake is a cool funny dude, he does the acting thingy, he does the sexy R&B thingy and even musical comedy. However, let us not forget his horrifying roots: the rich kid - mama’s boy - Disney Club - ‘N Sync and mangina combo that would pop out of teeny magazines and boy band videos 24/7. Justin Timberlake is the Justin Bieber of yesteryear, and that fact is pure HORROR.
