‘Race and racism is a reality that so many of us grow up learning to just deal with. But if we ever hope to move past it, it can’t just be on people of color to deal with it. It’s up to all of us – Black, white, everyone – no matter how well-meaning we think we might be, to do the honest, uncomfortable work of rooting it out. It starts with self-examination and listening to those whose lives are different from our own. It ends with justice, compassion, and empathy that manifests in our lives and on our streets.’ — Michelle Obama
Digital Warmup with Dexter’s Laboratory cause he’d be in his mid 20’s by now and I’d totally watch it. Peace ya’ll.

Digital warmup with more from Dexter’s Laboratory (adult years). I like to think that Mandark’s mid 20’s would be a dark spiral into all things destructive after suffering so much defeat from Dexter over the years. Like any mad scientist, the target for his work would turn it’s focus inward in an attempt to force self improvement to get the results he’s after.
Seeing as how Dee Dee has grown into a bombshell, he would of course still be enamored over her, but possibly has accepted the harsh reality that like his battles with Dexter, it’s a losing battle he’ll never win. Being the evil genius that he is however, he’s not above creating his own version of her, a near flawless android that of course has none of the traits that Dee Dee has, which causes him daily frustration. Also Duck is still around :) Peace ya’ll.

Warmup for the day with more Dexter’s Laboratory (adult years) with Dex’s parents.
Yes, 20 years later they look virtually the exact same. C'mon now, did you really think a “boy genius” capable of time travel and giving his pet monkey super powers would allow his parents to become old and decrepit? Not hardly.
Unbeknownst to his parents, Dexter devised an anti-aging formula in his late teens that would guarantee long life for them. Oddly enough, his parents just assume their good looks and great physique in there golden years were the byproduct of a healthy lifestyle and choice eating. Peace ya’ll.

Digital warmup for the day with more Dexter’s Laboratory (Adult Years) featuring at last, Monkey.
20 years of saving the world time after time would chip away at the best of heroes, and Monkey is no exception. With an ever evolving intellect, powers beyond comparison, and the redundancy of it all, responsibility weighs heavily on the resolve of this mighty hero.
The really tough questions began to arise after loyalty concerns began to surface within his agency, Global Security. This combined with the sudden unexplained disappearance of the Commander, Monkey and Agent Honeydew decided to go rogue and operate under their own banner. While Monkey still has dwindling flame to see the world continue to spin, his spirit for heroism has been deeply tarnished over the years. “You either die a hero, or you live long enough to become the villain”
Peace ya’ll

Haha! Android Scratch is a concept I can get behind!
Happyhoganon: If ALL of Superman's enemies were flung to distant planets, alternate timelines and alt. worlds by accident while trying to kill the Big Blue Boy Scout (no thanks to Bizarro) and the Man of Steel made it his mission to find and bring them back to Earth, could he manage to accomplish his goal (made worse with some wanting to stay in their new found homes and would do just about anything to)?
😫 unfortunately for Earth Prime yeah. Clark would go out of his way to collect all his villains to make sure other time lines etc didn’t suffer because he left them there. When he couldn’t find a way he’d def ask for the JLs help and even if Barry and Hal were 100% like me ???? Um big blue how is this a problem? B and Di would assign each team member to a planet and have em all back in less than 72 hrs. Plus villains wanting to stay on a new earth? Yeah Bruce would be all over those planets first to see how much they’d messed that world up
Happyhoganon: Many of Spider-Man's enemies are secretly going around the Multiverse to recruit versions of themselves so they can all beat on their world's Spider-Man. Spidey figures out what his fiendish foes are doing and try to recruit as many other Spider-Men and Spider-Women as he can. Could the Spider-People bring down the multiple multiversal villains? Will they all lose and be done ('cause of that Parker Luck) for? Or would the Spiders actually come out of the big fight ahead okay?
‘Parker Luck’, I like that. Initially, the Spiders think they can handle the multiple multiverse villains, what with teamwork and whatnot. However, they’d face a big loss, one of their teammates dies (or is severely injured), resulting in a retreat. The Spiders decide they need additional help from other multi-verses and each one goes in search for an additional Spider person. (Miles would end up fetching a young Spiderman (AKA Tom Holland) from Queens). But everyone comes back with a new Spider buddy and they go off and have this epic showdown with the villains. OOOOH maybe even Aunt Mays (yes multiple) show up to help their nephews, one of them could be a cybertronic Aunt May and she kicks ass. They would fight the good fight and win in the end, not without some loses, but it was anticipated they wouldn’t all come out in the end. After all, with great power comes great responsibility, and the risk is worth it.
