Can we talk about Russel Hobbs?
Russel is a cartoon character, but heās so important.
This is a man who watched his friends die.
A man who lost his best friend and soul mate.
Heās been plagued with spirits invading his mind and soul, turning him vulnerable and depressed.
He suffers from extreme paranoia and is struck with so much fear and misery.
Russel was kidnapped by Murdoc, and thrown into even more chaos than before.
He has seen the grim reaper. He was almost killed. He was trapped in a glass cage and treated like a monster.
Heās troubled by the memory of his best friend, and is constantly afraid and not all that sure of where his head is at.
He has tried to kill himself.
Russel has been through genuine hell.
Heās so tired.
Heās such a tragic character with a heartbreaking and terrifying backstory.
And yet, heās such an inspiring character as well.
Russel is a fat black man. But heās not always tough, or loud, or masculine, or whatever stereotype some people throw around.
Heās insecure. Heās not mentally stable. Heās caring and honest and scared and funny and strange and gentle and he doesnāt back down and heās tired and vulnerable and brave and polite and intelligent and kind.
He loves animals, especially cats.
He doesnāt take Murdocās shit and he protects 2D.
He loves taxidermy, and music, and fashion. He cares so much for the ones close to him, especially Noodle.
Russel has been through so much, but heās still trying.
Trying and trying and trying to make a difference in the world.
Heās been struggling since he was young, and heās still struggling today.
Heās 42 years old. Heās a good man that has had a shit life, but still continues to be a good man, and still hasnāt let life destroy him.
Heās inspiring and loveable and interesting.
Heās important.
He deserves to be happy, and he deserves to be appreciated.
Heās genuinely amazing.

I am Still a cartoon lover
I was born with a pineapple under the sea,Ā
I learned things in Cyber Space,
I was raised with kids in the cul de sac.
I found the escaped experiments in hawaii,
I saw ghosts in the town of Amity Park,
I watched Weird World with the Saturdays,
I had misadventures to find Candy Island,
I trained with teens in a T shaped tower,
I defeated the Fire Nation,
I fought in the Gem War,
I survived Weirdmageddon,
I broke out of St. Olgaās,
I made it over the Garden Wall,
I had silly adventures in the land of Ooo,
BUT Iām not done yet!
CUZ I NEED THAT SAUCE MORTY!
(I made this as a redo on my original āI am a Cartoon Loverā showing where my love of cartoons began and how I grew up with cartoons because why not?? As I am still a cartoon lover no matter how old i grow)Ā
