Animation appreciation

Firestarter Ember Fury is the coolest-slash-hottest illustrated character of 2009. But what about cool animated characters? Obviously they can't hold a candle (hahaha) to our Ember but here are our favourites...

Stewie
The brightest baby on the block, Family Guy's little man has plans for world domination. He may only be one year old but he's got a deathray and he's not afraid to use it.

Daria
Cynical teen Daria Morgendorffer cut through her classmates with razor-sharp wit in MTV's classic cartoon. The girl who made it cool to be uncool. Don't mess with Daria. She couldn't care less.

Bart Simpson
The original bad boy with serious slingshot skills and the coolest catchphrases of the 90s. Don't have a cow man. Eat my shorts. Genius.

Cartman
South Park's star. Yeah, so everyone hates him. But that's why we love him so much. Almost as much as he loves his cheesy poofs.

Gorillaz
Any of 'em. The greatest virtual band ever.
