Description Feast your eyes on my baby! I kept drawing this little bundle of joy for three weeks now, but it was worth it :D (Big Grin)

Now, if you want to comment, but don't particularly know what to say (I experience that problem quite often), could you at least share which panel you enjoyed most? For me it was the sixth one with that retarded derpy looking Lion-O. ;D

OK, now that I stopped talking about my work, I want to use the occasion and talk to you, my fellow Thunderians about that nasty subject. Yes, I'm talking about the dreaded 'C' word...
I know these things are usually discussed in journals, but apparently I'm not popular enough :) (Smile)

Anyway, at the current moment the TC fanbase has split into two teams: optimists who claim the show is on temporary hiatus, and pessimists saying that it kicked the bucket already...
Now personally, I consider my place is in the first group, but with the growing wave of these non-believers (lol, that sounded so wrong :) (Smile)) it becomes harder to stand up for our principles...
As many people before me, I'd like to step up onto the stage and calm down everyone with realistic arguments - if you'll read this - www.thundercats.ws/thundercats… , you'll see that there are no STRICT mentions of cancellation. Furthermore, wikipedia also states the official hiatus. And, quite frankly, if WIKIPEDIA says that, then it must be true :) (Smile) In my opinion, our battle will be lost when this enormous web encyclopedia says so.
And furthermore even IF it does get cancelled, you people should be aware that it won't mean the end of the world. I want to share a secret with you guys, a magnificent tale which sparks up hopes for all cancelled shows. Ready? Here goes:
'Family guy', that popular animated sit-com was once cancelled! In 2003 Fox pulled the plug on the show and it was nearly forgotten, but a miracle happened - reruns on 'Adult Swim' drove up interest, and a letter-writing campaign along with impressive DVD sales, encouraged Fox to bring the show back permanently.

'Family guy' was renewed after THREE years of coma. And it was only thanks to the die-hard fans that this happened.

So, you see, my point is - it doesn't matter what the status of 'ThunderCats' is, as long as it has a loyal fanbase we should never loose hope.
What can we do, you ask? Well, I don't know about those letter-writing spamming campaigns, as I heard that those only annoy and infuriate 'the bosses' and it encourages them to kill the show for sure.
I think the best way to help our show in need is to continue our 'fanism' - make fanart, fanfictions(as of now I REALLY recommend reading this - www.fanfiction.net/s/8394848/1… it's fantastic :D (Big Grin)), youtube music videos (We SO need an abridged series; I could probably do it myself, but I don't have any men-friends :( (Sad) ), talk about the show in tumblr, forums, I don't know... But we should do everything we can to call in more fresh fans, and keep reminding the old fans what it truly means to love the show... I mean, look at me! I became a devoted fan only mere 2-3 months ago, partly because I was intrigued by the fanart here on DA...

So here you have it - DO NOT LOSE HOPE. After all, it doesn't end, until the fat cat sings ;) (Wink)
