Two tales of our Cartoon Network heroines. In the first, the villainess Sedusa tricks all of Townsville into becoming a giant reality TV show, sort of like the Truman Show. In the second, Mojo Jojo has a yard sale and casually sells off his death rays and killer robots to Townsville's citizens. Both stories are a lot of fun, containing whimsey and slapstick humour for the kids but retaining enough sophistication and wit for the adults reading it to them. It helps that both tales showcase the weirdness of the Townsville residents themselves and not just limit the tale to the Girls and their villains. And yes, it is nice to see Professor Utonium showing some signs of heterosexuality, even if it is towards a bad girl. With the proper development, Townsville could be the next "Springfield."
