I actually wanted to make this a bit later, but when my brother gave me the idea, I could not resist to do it as fast as possible.
A little tribute to the 5 legends, we lost this year. Who by weird conincidence... I hope, had all the letters "St" for their first name... Stephen King, better be extra carefull this year.
My tribute goes to:
Stefan Karl Stefansson, for most people better known as Robbie Rotten from the show "Lazy Town". Personally, I didn't watched Lazy Town this often, but when I did, it was still a cheesy but very enjoyable show and Robbie was allways the most enjoyable character and I know, many people fell the same way. Heck, he became quiet a phenomenon with the "we are number 1" meme and a lot of people certainly loved to help this guy. He was a great villain and a great actor.
Stephen Hawking, honestly I don't know much about Hawking, besides him being like the smartest guy on the entire freakin planet and that he certainly was a wonderfull rolemodel in staying strong, humorfull and optimistic. Damn, when he died, it felt like knowledge and logic is littereally leaving our planet in all that madness we have to deal with today. But again, as Hawking showed us, not matter how hard and cruel the world can be, we have to stay postive and rational. I know he had quiet some cameos in cartoon shows, but yet it still felt a little akward drawing him next to 3 fictional characters plus I'm not very good at drawing real persons so I only drew his wheelchair.
Stephen Hillenburg, the most recent lost... like pretty much yesterday... what can I say? A marine biologist who used his passion to create one of the greatest cartoons of all time. yeah, before his return to the show, the show started to sink down, but still. My friends and me still quote our most favourite spongebob lines on a daily bases and damn, I still remember when the show came out. In my class I pretty much was the only one who had huge interest in cartoons (it's just my passion), but spongebob? Everybody loved him, no matter the age. It was like people finally recognized that cartoons are not just kids stuff. That there is nothing wrong with liking something silly that brings you joy. And for that, I give the guy huge credit.
Stan Lee and Steve Ditko (Big thanks to :iconRogerHyde: for informing me, that I forgot to mention Steve Ditko on my last post).
Well probably don't have tot ell who Stan Lee is... king of cameos after all... Steve Ditko... as you can see, a little less known. At least from my point of view. ^^; What both have in common, they created one of the biggest comic multiverse and one of the best super heroes of all time. School time was for me pretty rough, like "someone may could die" kinda rough... luckely I had a great family and a great rolemodel to keep me up. Spiderman teached me to stay strong, to keep going day for day no matter how bad it get's. To believe in the good in the world. I'm pretty much alive and the person I am today, thanks to this heroic jokster and I know there are many many other people feeling the same way. So fuck you Bill Maher and every other person, who dares to insult the people, who helped us so much through life.
They brought us joy, they brought us knowledge and even formed us as people to a certain degree. So let us never forget that. Stay strong, stay happy, stand up for what brings you and other so much joy.
We will never forget you, you where truly living legends.
PS. about my last post, the sketch about Grimm. This was mostly meant in a joking way. I know death is part of live. I know we can't really blame Death for doing his "job". That's why I called it "Back from work". It's sad, yeah, but as time has shown us, humor can be a good way to deal with grief and sorrow. So yeah, I not really blamming Grimm, it was really just meant as a joke.
And seriously Stephen King, please take good care of you. We allready lost so many legends and the whole "St" thing this year... like geez, it's actually kinda scary. Like... could... could he make that into a book? URg, waht am I thinking... well It's allready freakin late at night when I posted this, so I probably should go to bed now.
And never forget:
"We are number 1!"
“Quiet people have the loudest minds.” &“Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.”
"We are ready!"
"Power doesn't corrupt, It's neutral. SOmeone allways wants to corrup power. "
and of course
"EXCELSIOR!"
