The Powerpuff Girls!



What am I looking at? 
A historic moment. Nino Paulito with the Powerpuff Girls!

What is the Powerpuff Girls? 
One of our favourite cartoons ever. Bubbles, Blossom and Buttercup are preteen superheroes, made by accident, who fight crime in the city of Townsville. They're from that golden era of Cartoon Network animation which also included Cow & Chicken, Jonny Bravo and Dextor's Laboratory.

What makes the Powerpuff Girls cartoon so special? 
What was most impressive about the Powerpuff Girls is the way it graciously subverted all the usual superhero conventions. It isn't boorish and predictable like it's modern counterpart either. Check out this classic episode for proof. It also has the most peculiar assortment of villains of any superhero series too. Our favourites include the maniacal Mojo Jojo and 'HIM'. The soundtrack is pretty awesome too.

Great. Thanks. Bye.
