movies/tv PPG: Sugar, Spice, Nice - My Upcoming Comic Series


Harmony Spark

Recommended Posts

Since im a huge PPG fan as well as MLP, I have decided to create a webcomic series based on PPG. In entering an animation course, so I'm at my writing stories stage but as soon as I perfect digital art techniques, I'll be able to make the comic itself.

This is a reimagining of the original cartoon. As a fan, I always wanted to imagine the Powerpuff Girls grown older and face conflicts similar to the comic book world whilst also containing the original show's charm, humour, darkness and spirit as well. The comic series centres around the Powerpuff Girls now 15 years old and getting back together after they split up years ago, and have now promised to defend Townsville whilst also having normal lives. The Girls learn their newly discovered powers by channeling their inner ingredients (sugar, spice and everything nice) to still save the day but also have slice of life problems such as exams, puberty, boys etc. The comics features the villains from the original such as Mojo Jojo and HIM, whilst also establishing characters, like the Rowdyruff Boys.

Here are my character profiles for the girls:

Blossom - the leader of the group. She has pink eyes, long ruffled red hair and wears a torn red bow with long ribbons. She wears a pink and black striped top with dark pink leggings and black sneakers. Her signature colour is pink and her ingredient is everything nice. Blossom is the level-headed of the group, she is smart, kind and wise beyond her years. She always considers options before making a decision and always tries to save the day but to do it in the right way. She is also quite shy and socially awkward around her peers at Townsville High (although she is very good at Science and Maths) and normally is friends with her own sisters. She does, however, have a certain need to have everything in control and hates it when others disrespect her. Blossom is also hot-headed and can sometimes forget reasoning to resort to fighting, but unlike Buttercup, she can calm down easily. She has a deep devotion to her sisters and will do anything to be with them. Even in the pilot comics, a depressed Blossom reminisced about the days of fighting crime and was the first to try and get her sisters back together. Blossom gets along better with Bubbles because of her compassion, but gets in arguments with Buttercup due to her stubbornness but even though she may argue with her sisters, she acts like a motherly figure whenever they are scared or lonely. Her signature power is ice breath, which she can use to freeze anything that is in her path. She also develops another signature power: telepathy. She develops a infatuation on Brick, the leader of the Rowdyruff Boys.

Bubbles - the sweetheart of the group. She has blonde hair in a ponytail with a curved fringe and baby blue eyes. She wears a black and blue striped blouse with a royal blue skirt and black ballet pumps. Her signature colour is blue and her ingredient is sugar. Bubbles is still naive and sweet as before but she has changed throughout the decade. She is smarter, braver and shows to be very insightful sometimes. Her kindness and good nature makes her very popular at Townsville High and despite this, she is very good at schoolwork (as she often tries to prove she's not a 'dumb blonde'). But her best friends are always her two sisters. Bubbles loves them to no end and always reminds them that they're a team as she only wants her sisters to be happy. Bubbles does get into fights with her sisters, like the rest of them do, but she is always the first to make amends. She looks up to her sisters as she tries to be tough and smart like them. Before the comic series, Bubbles left the group because she thought she wasn't good at being a superhero and was considered a weak link. She then left to join the popular girls who often use Bubbles' naïveté to their advantage and can push her around, even though Bubbles claims that they're good friends. When Bubbles' "fair weather friends" abandon her, Blossom was nearby as she accidentally fell down a cliff into the sea. Bubbles finds her sister drowning and saves her just in time. After a long talk, Blossom tells Bubbles that she has more courage and strength than she realised as she faced many villains and still beat them all and she is what makes a superhero super. Her signature power is the sonic scream, a sound which is so loud that can be amplified by the negativity of her words (for example: when she shouts a swear, the sonic scream is so loud that it's enough to shatter glass.) She also develops another signature power: invisibility. She has a longtime crush on Boomer, one of the Rowdyruff Boys.

Buttercup - the tomboy of the group. She had black punk style hair with her original flips at the ends and has light green eyes. She wears a black and green striped tank top with dark green ripped jeans and black hi-tops. Her signature colour is green and her ingredient is spice. Buttercup is the most stubborn and tough of the group as she's always ready to fight crime and save the day. She is more masculine from the others since she acts this way. Prior to the series' events, Buttercup used to think being a girl was a weakness and that she was too different from the other girls. She then left the group to become a bully to everyone, hanging out with many of the boys at high school, despite being tortured by them whenever Buttercup disagrees on something. Blossom eventually confronts her twisted sister and after a long talk, she taught Buttercup how to use words instead of violence to solve her problems, which helped prove to Buttercup that women can be tough and heroic just like men but doing ladylike things does not make them weak. So after reuniting with her sisters, Buttercup does things like playing video games and skateboarding but develops a feminine side by doing shopping and make-up. Buttercup is also very loyal towards her sisters and will crush anyone who tries to hurt them. She does tend to criticise them, which particularly annoys Blossom. She's also quite sarcastic and makes snarky remarks but only for having a bit of fun. Her signature power is fire powers, but she also develops a new signature power: super strength. She has a unrequited crush on Butch, one of the Rowdyruff Boys.

I'm also having the Rowdyruff Boys represent different aspects of Mojo Jojo and HIM, sice they were the villains who tried to raise them. Such as having Brick the scheming, manipulative leader that uses his smarts for evil instead of good like Blossom. Butch is cold, calculating and a sociopath, and Boomer is the most energetic and destructive but also has a soft side for girls (in fact he secretly has an effeminate nature, however this causes Boomer to be a victim to his brothers abuse.)

And the relationship between the PPG and the RRB, unlike tons of fanfiction out there, is going to be subtle, complex and handled well. There will also be common intrests between the two groups, but they are often fighting between each other. Bottom line, there won't be any forced romances or waifus stealers in this comic series (cough Equestria Girls cough)

Anyway, on a lighter note, here are some of the character models of the Grls. They aren't the best due to my limited skills at the moment, but I tried my best.

Anyway I would like to hear your thoughts on my project. Do you think it's a good idea? Are there any changes you would like to see? Any characters you want to see again? Any tips and ideas for my project?

I'm open to all advice and ideas.
