Which Cartoon past or present do you think would translate best into a comic? and what changes would they have to make to fit better or Translate better to deliver what a normal person who is into comics today would want to see?
here are some cartoons off the top of my head ~
Birdman & the Galaxy Trio
Captain planet
SWAT Kats
Ben 10
Freakazoid
Megas XLR
Samurai Jack
Code lyoko
Kids Next Door
The Life and Times of Juniper Lee
Robot boy
Xiaolin Showdown
IGPX
Gargoyles
ReBoot
Power Puff Girls
Jackie Chan Adventures
A.T.O.M.
Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go!
American Dragon Jake Long
Earthworm Jim
Ozzy & Drix
The Pirates of Dark Water
Storm Hawks
mighty Max
just to name a few american cartoons, i think with the right tweaks and changes any of these could make an interesting comic if not an nice addition to an already existing comic.
just wanted some others opinions/thoughts on this.
feel free to mention anything i forgot to.
Birdman & the Galaxy Trio - Crap
Captain planet - Darker Miniseries perhaps
SWAT Kats - A one-shot would be interesting. Anything else would be silly
Ben 10 - Practically Silver Age.
Freakazoid - Too random
Megas XLR - Pretty good
Samurai Jack - As comic as a Cartoon could be
Code lyoko - Manga
Kids Next Door - Crap, or a Manga
The Life and Times of Juniper Lee - Crap
Robot boy - Crap
Xiaolin Showdown - Crap
IGPX - WTF
Gargoyles - Already has a comic
ReBoot - Too under loved
Power Puff Girls - Meh
Jackie Chan Adventures - Mediocre
A.T.O.M. - Crap
Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go! - Manga
American Dragon Jake Long - Meh
Earthworm Jim - A deadpool style wacky comedy with seriousness.
Ozzy & Drix - Meh
The Pirates of Dark Water - Mediocre
Storm Hawks - Mediocre (Although the show gets a 6-7/10 in my book)
mighty Max - Acceptable.
Birdman & the Galaxy Trio - no
Captain planet - No no no
SWAT Kats - I agree with Grey Fox. A one shot.
Ben 10 - too reminiscent of dial H for Hero
Freakazoid - would've done well in the early 90's
Megas XLR - Pretty good
Samurai Jack - good work
Code lyoko - I hate the cartoon. I'll be to biased to advise.
Kids Next Door - oh please no.
The Life and Times of Juniper Lee - Who?
Robot boy - What?
Xiaolin Showdown - Why?
IGPX - No.
Gargoyles - Been done
ReBoot - Could use some more cred
Power Puff Girls - I suppose
Jackie Chan Adventures - I'm as big a fan of Jackie as anyone and I'm against it.
A.T.O.M. - ....
Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go! - Funny but no.
American Dragon Jake Long - No, no, no....Oh God...NO!
Earthworm Jim - I was under the impression that it already happened. Am I wrong?
Ozzy & Drix - No
The Pirates of Dark Water - Yes.
Storm Hawks - Never seen it.
Mighty Max - It had a fairly comic book feel to it anyway.
I could swear Pirates of Dark Water already had a comic book. Reboot would make a awesome comic...As long as it's with Bob and not Matrix. Mighty Max and Swat Kats are the only other ones I'd think would make a good comic though Freakazoid might but I think it wouldn't be as good without it being a cartoon.

reminder! your not restricted to what i listed, it was just all i could think of.
i think with some tweaks Ben 10 could be turned into an actually good comic, cut some of the crap, make it funny but more serious in some aspects and it could be good.
Pirates of dark water, as is for the most part would make an awesome comic. same for mighty max. just slight update, not to mention the crossover possibility.
SWAT kats? maybe a four issue mini series. if its done well and not half-assed it would be cool
Gargoyles hell yes! someone mentioned they had a comic, did they? or was it like teen titans go or batman strikes, just a cheap-ish copy? id like to see it now, well thought out story and art with some effort and skill behind it.
