Can I Be A Cartoon Superhero?

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

Throughout life, we all have days we wish we could be superheroes. Who hasn’t encountered a situation in which they’d like to bound over a tall building or outrace a stalled car in traffic? That leads to a simple question- can you become a cartoon superhero?

Well, you should know already that it’s possible to make an amazing cartoon (we’ve given you links in every post). But making a cartoon superhero is more complex. You can go two ways with it.

With one, you can make a cartoon that has outrageous colors, outfits, hair, and even pets. Whatever you imagine is possible. If you want to turn Sam into “Samatron” or Sarah into “Sarlax”, you can do it.

But another part of making a cartoon is realizing that you are a superhero already. You can create an image that represents everything you are- and isn’t that super enough? In some ways, you’re already a superhero- you just have to make it a cartoon.

So get ready to click- you can make a cartoon superhero right now! We’ll be watching…
