Rhubarb Joy:
the protagonist for a comic idea I had, wherein a
'Strawberry Shortcake/MLP type of girls toy/toon from the '80s gets
cancelled and the characters have to grow up and get real jobs in real
life.
However, the real world is less than hospitable to toons, so,
she winds up an alcoholic stripper and part-time roller derby girl.
After
a few years of Hollywood raping the childhoods of 80s kids with stuff
like the Transformers movies and the upcoming CGI Smurfbomination, some
TV pro-douche-er gets the brilliant idea to make a 'where are they now'
type documentary on a few lesser known 80's toons. Rhubarb Joy and her
former co-stars are such a collective trainwreck that the documentary
leads to a full scale reality show on JoyLand.
Get ready to bleep F-Bombs and blur out wardrobe malfunctions.
