That illustration was based on this scene from the book... “One night last week,” [the Artilleryman] said, “some fools got the electric light in order, and there was all Regent Street and the Circus ablaze, crowded with painted and ragged drunkards, men and women, dancing and shouting till dawn. A man who was there told me. And as the day came they became aware of a fighting-machine standing near by the Langham and looking down at them. Heaven knows how long he had been there. It must have given some of them a nasty turn. He came down the road towards them, and picked up nearly a hundred too drunk or frightened to run away.” Grotesque gleam of a time no history will ever fully describe!

Elwood City sure loves their sci-fi and cape flicks.

The character design team during the Flash era were apparently in a competition with AI over who can draw worse hands.

Sue Ellen's part in "Besties" where she tells Arthur about how she was replaced in her previous group of friends is ironic and meta af considering her personality and backstory were more or less cloned for Ladonna (both have an interest in different cultures, both families constantly move because of their fathers' jobs, both moved to Elwood City during the winter).

I want to say Lance Armstrong anti-cheating. Like I know he appeared in an episode, but I don't think the moral was about cheating.

i rly hope the arthur movie is still happening bc “arthur’s missing pal” was Not It

In addition to the bad CGI, the awkward partial voice cast was another problem that plagued Arthur’s Missing Pal. Like you had Daniel Brochu and Bruce Dinsmore (credited with pseudonyms because of some union thing) while all of the other voices were replaced. I would have loved to see a feature length movie animated in the style of “It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll.” It had such a cinematic look to it that no other special had, not even “Arthur’s Perfect Christmas.”
