Why did cartoon Starfire catch on and the 30+ years of comics characterization before are kind of forgotten? It can't just be nostalgia happening

80s were a long time ago and the cartoon was pretty fucking popular. Slutfire's gone, bro.
the 30 years of material was forgotten thanks to the autistic ditz version of her in the cartoon that tumblrtards and normies have clung to. It's like that with all the charachters in the cartoon. Fuck, raven went from "girl who is desperate to escape her inevitable fate as a servant of the apocalypse" to "Muh brooding goth girl because she so goth XD"

I just want to remind you guys that the original Starfire was never like she was portrayed in RHatO.
She was a fiery and optimistic. She did everything with emotion.

>Slutfire's gone, bro.
And now we're stuck with Dumbfire.

easier to fap to cartoons than drawings

Raven in the original comics was boring as fuck

Dick Grayson, the arranged marriage for the sake of the planet, the general that helped her build the new planet and Captain Comet. So 4 guys.
She had less boyfriends than Wonder Woman.

Right, like in R.E.B.E.L.S. v2 with Captain Bootycall.

R.E.B.E.L.S. was a terrible when it came to Starfire. Remember that stupid arc with the female GL that took Starfire to the breeding grounds?
Either way in the comic she wanted to hook up with Captain Comet, but was honest with him about her still being in love with another man (Dick Grayson). He couldn't accept the relationship that way and so they broke up.

>Implying anyone kids knew who the fuck Starfire was
She caught on because whether you like it or not, to a lot of people she was an endearing character. Same with Raven.
Noone rejected the old to have the new ditzy Starfire, 99% of kids literally didn't know any different.
I sure didn't.

That's what I was referring to. The wolfman/Perez starfire, who was actually competent, mature, and fun without having to be silly by being like in the cartoon. She was full of life
