I Like Monday 26
Jul. 28th, 2014 06:00 pmThis Monday, I like... the Doctor Who cartoons of Fonora.
Lots and lots and lots of Nu-Who comic strips, focused on Ten and Eleven - and an increasing number featuring Twelve as well! The style is sorta scruffy, sorta scratchy; all the men have red noses and everybody has long, gangly limbs. It reminds me of the illustrations of Tony Ross (Google him). The strips are (with one exception*) really funny, perfectly capturing the adorable, slapstick ridiculousness which has been such a feature of Nu-Who. My current favourites include:
Finding Gallifrey
Beach of Doomsday (I always thought the goodbye scene between Rose Tyler and the Tenth Doctor was irritating, particularly Rose's stupid crying)
Gentleman (it's the smirk; the smirk gets me every time XD)
Wrong Universe
and (shout out to The Emperor's New Groove!) Wrong Lever (btw, these guys would definitely pronounce it "LEEV-er", NOT "LEV-ur").
And she kinda ships Eleven and Elsa from Frozen, which is surprisingly adorable :3
Even better, unlike some DeviantArtists I watch, Fonora updates pretty regularly, so there's usually something new to have a giggle over.
* The exception? This one. I'm sorry, did she miss the bit where he was beating her up?!?! ( Spoiler )
