I don't know. While I think there may be parts of these shows, and I'd like to add the WB's "The Batman" to that list, that now and then might have had fairly entwined storyline, and touched on mature subjects, I'm not sure they are on this level.
With this show we're seeing a cartoon tackle a global shadow army, with it's clutches in every fabric of society. Soldiers being hunted by their own government. Much like the original Joe, the fact that it's set in a semi-plausible, "real world" type scenario, and involves military, cultural perceptions, espionage, it's really on the edge of almost being a little "too adult". Much like ARAH at times, way back when. Titans, much like Batman had some complex plots, especially involving The Hive, and Slade, however it really didn't infest every facet of life the way this does. It involved the heroes and their adversaries. Much more like a soap opera, then a suspenseful thriller in cartoon form. Ben 10 is about aliens...I don't know what more to say about that. I haven't seen much of it, but what I have seen seems fairly well written, but not very engaging from an adult perspective. Any X-Men cartoon is much of the same as Titans, just a soap opera, set against the backdrop of bigotry. With spandex and flashy powers.

Kids may not get behind it, but it's definately causing kids to get behind the toy market. I was in TRU the other day thinking I was the only one who looked at the Joes anymore and there was a group of parents whom I overheard saying, "get this one, he's the bad guy leader. If you get Duke, you have to get this guy. Oh, and get the ninja's, he'll love the ninjas."
Made me feel good to hear that, and to know someone was finally going to buy those peg warmers |

Since you felt the need to quote me and say it's funny that I say that, I assume you must be accusing me of being a hypocrite. No? If you have a problem with me, feel free to take it to the PM's. If not, follow your own advice.
