pronkerAs much as I'm often happy paddling my fandom-of-one canoe on my own, sharing my love and excitement and rants and hopes and general flailing about The Thing I Love is a big part of what draws me to fandom spaces. Admittedly, I've never been that good at talking people into fandoms, but that's never slowed me down when it comes to trying!
So which of the Things You Love would you like to tell people about? Why might others like it? If you're a fan of this other thing, would you be a fan of this? Why is it just the best and most terrible and beautiful canon in your heart right now?
Challenge #9
In your own space, promote at least one canon that you adore (old, new, forever fandom). Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
This challenge is focused on original canons, but I personally hold a pretty loose definition of what that can mean, so if you think something is a "canon," it totally is. Alternately, promote your favourite "cannon." Preferably with pictures.
IOIOIOIOIO
I'm unsure about this post, but here goes:
I've loved animation since childhood when we kids and the adults, too, would howl at Bugs Bunny, Marvin the Martian, the King-Size Canary from Tex Avery, and many others, and this was even before we got a color TV. To narrow the focus, in adulthood the surreal world of animation containing Hammer Space, Breaking The Fourth Wall, and other "norms" of the cartoon world enamored me further. To get really specific, the fandom of Dreamworks' TV show Penguins of Madagascar with top notch VAs, music, stories and general wackiness makes me happy. The simple premise of a penguin with a mysterious stretchable past containing eight years hiding in the Mexican jungle as a, what, guerrilla? commando? traveling troubadour? where he learned how to play the Spanish guitar masterfully continues to entertain after some years in the fandom now.
A picture? Here ya go!
Today another Madagascar franchise cartoon was announced.
