*here comes the money* Jokes aside though, I guess that really shows how many people want more of Lackadaisy
That's a lot of 0's! Here's hoping it'll help the studio continue animating this show! ^^
GOod i hope they get to do everything they want to with it.
Seeing how most people can barely tolerate Rocky for more than a few seconds, is easy to see why he's so loyal to Ms. May, she's probably one of the very few people who actually gave him a chance and a place.
ok
Fr
This actually makes sense
@@LAURS. yeah!
And why he might fantasize about her at least that's what I've seen in the comic
I love how everything in this short is in muted, solemn colors except Mitzi, who is vibrant and warm, especially compared to a very greyscale-like Atlas. It really helps emphasize how Mitzi is a ray of sunshine in Rocky's rough life. Little touches like this just prove how talented these animators and directors are.
I know he lives with his aunt at one point when he was a child but what about his real parents?
@doonkeythegreatsullivan9459 his mother succumbed to a disease, presumably tuberculosis, and his father was "working on the railroad"
@doonkeythegreatsullivan9459 his mom passed away while his father is absent
I feel so terrible for Rocky, seeing so many people toss him out and treat Rocky like trash. Mrs. Mitzy has a good heart and is such a nice kitty.
Ikr I just wanna give rocky a hug he needs it
@@yue1865 go ahead. He needs it pronto.
@@joshuasaxon769 on it *rushes towards rocky and gives him a hug*
Rocky thought of himself as a bad person for all the bad things that happened to him. Poor guy
This is during the times of the 1920s to 30s. It was sometimes like this.
I love that the Lackadaisy theme quietly starts to play when Mitzi appears. It's like you can feel that she is Rocky's gateway to a whole new world of chaos...
And then his trademark toothy grin makes me exstatic
Super hyped for season one!
Zamn what happened to my grammar when I wrote that lmao (fixed it now)
SUPER EXCITED FOR MORE OF THIS SHOW!!
Ps1 spyro pfp lets go
Just a little heads up to anyone wondering. The funding was supposed to be at least $125,000 and has now currently hit over $350,000. So it looks like this season will be happening :) Edit: it is now at $669,000, this is looking so promising! Also thanks to everyone who has liked this comment! You guys are cool!
Was* It's at 540k and it's only been an hour since your comment.... I think their getting to 1 mill by day three or today.
@@rawkth5996 Jeeeeeesus! That's amazing!
7 hours later and it is almost 600,000k
I heard that the $125,000 was just for the first episode. I'm pretty sure $1 million will get us a full first season
@@minkinns8438I really doubt that one episode would cost that much
The lack of colors really embodies the Great Depression
This takes place four years before the Great Depression began
The Great Depression began in 1929. This is a while before that, man.
This is set in the Roaring Twenties, a few years before the stock market crash.
As the other commentors say its before that, but Idont think you are entirely wrong. Considering he is a kid, this must be in the aftermath of ww1, a sort of depression of its own
No way this got 500 likes 💀
I love the small detail possibly hinting at Mitzi’s husband being dead at 2:12 the fact that he’s completely grey while she’s full of a bunch of color
He could honestly also just be a grey tiger
Oooooo that's a cool detail
@@thefiresworddragon927 yeah but with how bright all the other characters are, and the fact that he’s dead and his painting is also gray. I feel as though it’s a detail. Plus I feel as though he would atleast have ONE hint of color on him but he doesn’t
@@sainyacantey4108His eyes are yellow though. They could’ve made it a lighter grey form his muzzle but they didn’t.
And the single shadow
Love how they're keeping the characters' skeleton sketches. It emphasizes how this setting is a lot more "scraping by" and how not every character is able to pay the bills.
That and it has it in the style of old 1920's-80's hand drawn animation where if you look into animation back then you can sometimes see the Skeleton there.
someone who worked on this actually mentioned that with the way toon boom (their animation program) worked, they couldn’t actually “keep” the sketches, so they actually manually drew them back in on top of the clean lines! the dedication for this show is incredible
there was a scene like that in helluva boss too, idk if it was on purpose or not but it was definitely cool
the show sure will though, its already almost to 400k - 150k after 8 hours
Full disclosure. The first time I saw that, I thought it was unintentional, but nope. They did it deliberately to emulate the hand drawn feel of the pre-digital age of cartoons.
You know. I've wished the Lackdaisy deserves an animation series.

STOP ROCKY'S EYES ARE SO CUTE. His smile is so adorable you almost forget that look of insanity in the Pilot when he was throwing dynamite from heaven reciting maniacal poetry
He’s definitely adorable and he’s only 23.
omg real I love him
Look his eyes in this part 0:21
I cannot believe there's a season 1 coming. Lackadaisy deserves a whole lot of praise.
There might even be mini episodes.
@@averageveeandearthandBALLERYes Yes, the fundraiser cleared enough money for the mini episodes! :D
@@Myu_Tube nice
I’m excited this show’s production is finally moving beyond the pilot.
Fr
The weird thing is it has been three years since the Hazbin Hotel pilot, and it still hasn't been released, yet.
For real actually said the entire thing instead of doing the short thing i don't know why but i like it
Fr
I'm so God dam happy too
We're truely in the golden age of Indie Animation. Can't wait to see all the amazing stuff you guys are gonna make.
You couldn’t be more right. We’re going from Warner Bros and MGM feudalism to PBS “this program is funded by viewers like you” to hundreds of thousands of animation houses dependent on *volunteered* public funding and not on corporations. Independence for the win!
¿¡What the fuck do you mean: Warner Bros and MGM feudalism to PBS-etc.!?
@@syzygy9725 yup and its so GOOD. Like the indie animation scene is just so good and have so much passion behind the projects. Can't wait to see what Lackadaisy makes :)
what do you think started this golden era i think it's helluvaboss/hazbin hotel
@@syzygy9725Fnaf movie
Seeing a living Atlas outside of a memory feels haunting
My guys looks so gray
Personally I loved seeing him alive and not in memory
2:09 I love that from the moment she comes into his view there are warmer colors. It reminds me how Mordecai saw Atlas for the first time in the webcomic.
That’s actually an amazing callback
YESSS!!! Also the Atlas' pallet in this teaser here reminds me of a certain alligator from the comic, you know the one?
This show is going to MASSIVELY impact the online animation space!
I've waited for this for soo long bro
I believe so to between this and viv with her show getting picked up online creators have hope
The real question is how will this impact the trout population
It’s biggest rival might be the finale of Red vs Blue.
@@lilneoman1about 3
The future is looking bright for Lackadaisy and I couldn't be happier.
I agree!
Fr I can’t wait 😻🫶
Same here pal, same here
Same here!
i thought the pilot was a stand alone video but now we have a show & i have a new indie show up there with murder drones & helluvaboss
I love how this shows why Rocky is so devoted to Lackadaisy and Mitzi in particular. He's been looking for somewhere where he can belong for so long even if it's just to be tolerated by the people 😢
I love that this show is being powered by pure fan-support and is still racking up some big bank. It doesn’t need streaming services or advertising.
As someone who can't afford to fund the project, thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has!! You guys are amazing
It already has 320k/150k somehow lmao, cant wait
Agreed
REAL
the lowest tier is $1, but i understand if you cant donate, i probably cant either.
Same! Exchange rates make it difficult but imma ask to at least put in the $1 It’ll be something
The fact that they are damn near a million dollars in kickstarter funding just goes to show how hungry people are for good animation with heart and passion behind it. We are entering the age of indie animation and I am so excited to see where we go from here.
Same here man
I’m excited to!
It's pass 1million dollars in funding now, this season bouta be lit
They’ve reached 1 million it’s insane
"We are entering the age of indie animation"? That's a bold claim to make, from a single successful kickstarter.
My favorite part of this teaser is finally seeing a glimpse of (not ghost) Atlas in the animation. He's in the web comic so sparingly too, you know it's a big deal when Tracy puts him into a scene.
I wanted to add to the fund... but I prefer this payment method. Hope this helps a little anyways! Good luck! (Not like you guys will need it HOLY SHIT the support... Keep it up fellas! 2 million dollars, lets get it done!)
Duuude why do you give 100???? What are doing with your money
Eh, figured giving $99.99 would be not enough, but $100.01 is just WAY too much. It took a looooong time, but I found a compromise! @@Wolkenfluff
@@Wolkenfluff I have no idea if you’re implying they should’ve given more or less
@@JaztyManialess probably
Poor Rocky. I've only known about this boy for a few months and already my heart melts for him. Bless Mitzi for giving him a job.
Lackadaisy inspired me to write my own comic about a young cynical black-footed cat serial killer named Jenni Graves, who's after her father's killer and her more cheerful cheetah partner, Marley Dash. If Lackadaisy is accepting character ideas and submissions, I would be more than happy to give them Jenni and Marley, free of charge! Jenni was inspired by Mordecai whilst Marley was inspired by Rocky.
I love this!
@@hoppinghare4535 To give you the full story my friend, Jenni had watched her father be killed when she was a child. Her mother was wrongly convicted and died of a broken heart. Jen escapes her orphanage home with Marley Dash and they are now murdering mob bosses on the search for Jenni's father's killer.
You guys are amazing
oh muy god a checkamr
Nice
i like it
Very nice

Ladies and gentlemen in just 6 days, the dream goal to hit $1,000,000 has been achieved, I can not thank you enough for the overwhelming support from everyone. Again, thank you for your unprecedented support for this project.
HOW IS LACKADAISY NOT THE MOST POPULAR ANIMATION ON YOURUBE!? IT LOOKS BETTER THAN DISNEY FILMS! YOU CAN NOY BELIEVE HOW EXITED I AM
IT IS HAPPENING GUYS! We are getting full series of this masterpiece! BIG +W TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS THIS PROJECT 💛
i'm really happy that Lackadaisy reached the ultimate goal of 2 mil. here's to season one!
I'm only just discovering Lackadaisy. And I already adore it more than so many other animated series. I can't wait for season 1.
Lackadaisy is one of the most exciting projects happening right now in the world of animation.
Нуу не самый, но захватывающий!!!
I'm far more excited for it than anything coming from the big animation studios.
It is
Agreed! You can tell so much love and research was poured into Lackadaisy
PREACH
You can tell Rocky is younger, his eyes are so wide and full of life instead of insanity. I'm super excited for this! I love this show, just from the pilot it's instantly one of my favorite animated projects ever.

RIGHT?? he's just a little guy.. a little baby... a little manic baby

We can all agree that Lackadaisy is going to revolutionate the online animation world because its A MASTERPIECE
é a coisa mais linda que já vi em anos. eu pagaria para ver isso, pagaria com meus rins, mas mesmo assim eu iria pagar
Never read the books but if it's supposed to be adapting that then maybe but if not you're at a 99.99% chance of overhyping this show almost exclusively based on the animation quality which seems to be the standard when judging animated media rather then the supporting role it should be (I was talking about KZhead projects exclusively)
@@WAKKAWAKKA.Even the comic writing and dialogue are worlds better than Hazbin Hotel, Helluva Boss and Murder Drone combine so that gives me confident about the writers's capability.
its gonna hit more than the hazbin hotel or the helluva boss

Om my god! I can't wait for the upcoming episodes!
they say it will come out so soon
@@gttvgg510 2024 soon.
I know this would be lost in the vast sea of comments, but this series skyrocketed and now almost 1.5 million dollars as of this moment, amazing what great writing and animation can get this to be where it’s at, and let’s not forget about the voice actors and actresses, they made the characters feel more alive and well written and have a great sense of humor, amazing how something like a regular comic stories that was released almost two decades ago and now have a fan base that loves it, I didn’t read any of the comics yet but I am thinking about it but it’s not stopping me from enjoying this beautiful masterpiece of animation, may this series have many more years of success, and let the people who are working on this, thank you, thank you for making all of this happen, and this concludes my opinion, may everyone have a great day or night, and once again, thank you
If you love this, then read the comic, I guarantee you'll love it just as much.
I’m at least halfway through the comic and I have to say I’m enjoying it, a perfect blend of comedy, action and plot development
@@josephblackjr.9579 I'm thrilled to hear it! :D
In just two days after this trailer dropped, the goal to hit $125,000 has been absolutely destroyed, as I write this the fundraiser has reached $748,528, with another 4 weeks left to donate. I can thank this community enough, to see the love from everyone. Thanks you all for your support. 😊
Yea you can tell there were some big backers since it averages out to $120 per person.
WOAAAHHH HUHHHH
as of right now, it's surpassed the goal nearly 7 times over
Wrong d-word. The goal was absolutely Decimated. Glad that it did and hopefully this project goes as far as it can.
As of now it's in the millions in the span of a week 😭
It blows my mind that in just two days, of a $125,000 goal, lackadaisy has raised over HALF A MILLION DOLLARS for this series! I'm so excited
Which billionaire mf decided to tip them???
@@TheArtsyAviary.it’s at 728k now
@@RyanSoltani WHAT
@@RyanSoltani I swear to god if the goal reaches more than a million
@@TheArtsyAviary. Surpassed $750k!!!
Poor Rocky, though. He deserves love and warmth! I smiled when Atlas May and Mitzi May appeared.
Just hit 1.5 million!!!! Three minisodes of Lackadaisy!!! Woot Woot!
I know, I just checked! So now we get a full five-episode season and 3 shorts. And there's still three days left to donate. I know it's unlikely, but if we hit 2 million, we can get a full Season 1 Blu-ray release; including all five episodes, the shorts, the pilot and maybe more.
As someone who saw the _Lackadaisy_ on Webtoons, it's nice to see that webcomic finally got its chance to rise on the spotlight through the world of animation.

Even as a short animation, the amount of emotions is almost overwhelming. Hope you reach the funding goal you amazing talented animators, sketchers, voiceactors, composers and storyboarders
I Agree! We Support You, Lackadaisy Crew!!
Almost the Double of the goal already!
If you follow the link they’ve already doubled it
It’s a 💯 agree to the 🔝 Lackadaisy Season is gonna be good 👍🏼
Rocky looks so cute in this! It almost makes you forget about how at one point he maniacly laughs while chucking dynamite of of heavy machinery- Also the violin being yeeted out of the car physically hurt my feelings
Lackadaisy may be western animation's last hope
Seriously
No wonder why Rocky wants to do Miss M proud. She's the one that got him off the streets. I can't wait to finally continue this series.😁
Yeah, that scene created a whole new layer to their relationship.
Also interesting how Atlas is almost grayed out in real life. It really highlights Rocky and Miss M's dynamic even back then.
Yup. No wonder.
i wonder why they kick'em out of the car tho
@@dinocorigliano2623 "So... you like jazz?"
Lackadaisy started almost 20 years ago as a comic, and now we're getting an animated season? This is incredible!

ALMOST 20 YEARS AGO?!?!?! goodness that made me feel old 😅😅

Certainly, and it warms my heart.
WE JUST HIT A MILLION ON BACKERKIT LETS GOOOOOO
Bro I only watched the pilot two hours ago and it already inspired me to make more art and start animating
The way Mitzi reached out to Rocky. I think that’s one of the reasons why he developed feelings (in his own way) for her.
During this time period you have to be lucky enough to get a job because in The Great Depression getting a job is extremely difficult.
@lexusdriver1963 I thought the show took place in 1927? The great depression didn't happen until 1929 when the stock market crashed
@@lexusdriver1963the great depression hadn't started yet, but now that i think about it things are certainly gonna keep getting worse for those characters, the succession of prohibition, depression, and ww2 sounds like a terrible combo, let's hope they make it to the 50's alive.
She was probably the first person in a long time to speak with encouragement and appreciation to him and wilfully use his services, so no wonder he became attached and devoted to her - plus, she was pretty hot, so that's another reason.
2:16 that smile That goddamm smile
That blessed smile.
He's so cute! 😻
I will rewatch the Lackadaisy pilot 100 times, just to give them enough money to make the first season.
LMAO ITS AT 2,000,000 DOLLARS AND THE GOAL WAS 100,000 safe to say we're getting a season 1
Looks like we're really gonna see Rocky's backstory proper, the depth of his character and it looks like his relationship with Mitzi is A LOT deeper than originally expected. Seems she's one of the two mother figures in his life after his own mother's unfortunate passing: his aunt Nina being the more stern one teaching him responsibility (if he's even capable of learning any) and Mitzi being the warmer one providing him with support. Also, the animation continues to be AMAZING. Keep it up Tracy, Fable, Michael, Ashe, SungWon, Bel, Lisa, everyone!
Whatever happened to make Mina kick him out, it must have been BAD when you consider the amount of patience it must have taken to raise him. Perhaps it had something to do with Freckle's father... I hope we get a reunion between Rocky and Freckle, the first meeting between Ivy and Rocky, and how Rocky ended up stepping in to fill Mordecai's shoes. Also I wonder how old Rocky is in this trailer? 19?
I'm not sure she's a mother figure. I think Rocky is absolutely, head over heels, completely in love with her.
@@zettozettomer2640i see it as more platonic
@@zettozettomer2640I agree - Rocky is completely in love with her, while she seems him as a stray kitten. :')
It also makes sense that he'd be a little crazy -- he was clearly a manic child in a time when people frowned upon anyone outside of cultural norms -- and after finally getting a one-in-a-million chance to pursue his dreams, only to find that chance slip away with the Speakeasy, must have been maddening. So he ends up bootlegging -- even though he's not good at it -- which makes him even more crazy because he has to desperately cling to that dream and it's putting his life in danger. He's way more complex than at first glance.
As someone that has read the comic, it is great to see this kind of backstory that wasn't even in the comic animated like this. Looking forward to the whole season, it is going to be great.
I mean, it’s kinda implied in the comic. They sorta talk about Rocky’s past
@@RinkuStars Yeah, but they never show it.
As a fan of any truly good animated films, I would LOVE for this show to be as popular as Hazbin Hotel, or The Amazing Digital Circus
HIS LIL SMILE AT THE ENNDNDDD MY HEARTTTTTT
To all the creators who wanted to continue this project. Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to see this masterpiece! We love you so much keep it up! ♡
Bela arte. Animação de alta qualidade. Parabéns a todos que trabalharam na animação.
It's... honestly kinda surreal to see Rocky with such a placid, not-at-all crazed smile on his face. Really emphasizes just how much his time with Lackadaisy changes him.
Somewhat, from what we see in the comics it does seem like Rocky has been crazed for a while, before working at Lackadaisy and such. It seems more that his craziness is able to flourish a bit more in his current employment, but we‘ll see. Other than the letters to Freckle and some scattered conversations we don’t know much about pre-Lackadaisy Rocky, which makes this even more exciting!
@@FlowerPower0442 I always got the feeling more that Rocky's exuberance was always a side of him he used moreso to hide a lot of sadness. He does actually enjoy working for Lackadaisy but his overly exuberant personality during the comic is moreso cause he knows the buisness isn't doing good and doesn't want it to go away as he really doesn't have anywhere to go. Rocky's mom is dead, his aunt (Freckles mom) kicked him out of her house and doesn't like him, and his dad is implied to of ran off somewhere and doesn't want him either. Poor dude has literally nowhere to go.
@@WeaverOfStars Oh absolutely! His usual over the top behaviour is certainly a way to hide a lot of complex internal sadness. He‘s had a rough go of life, and Lackadaisy honestly seems like the last thing he has. He clings to it with all he‘s got, and essentially obsesses over Mitzi as the one person who is still giving him a chance (and hasn’t seemed to push him away previously, only accepted him). He‘s been through a lot, so I guess maybe calling him crazy for his covering demeanour wasn’t the best choice of words on my part lol. He‘s just troubled and trying to overcompensate to an extreme degree for it. Well, except until he got his skull cracked by the front bumper of a hearse. He is absolutely nuts after that.
Everyone, we only have about one more day (just a little over 24 hours) left for the Lackadaisy crowdfund. If you like this, then please, PLEASE consider a donation! Even $5 could really help out! And there are tons of cool rewards, including adorable plushies, if you want to donate more. Please spread the word and share the love for this absolutely FANTASTIC series!
Mitzi was the only one who gave Rocky an actual chance, it's easy to say now that we know why Rocky is actually so loyal to her. Also, I love that Rocky was playing his violin. Keep going guys! ❤
I’ll be honest I LOVE how you showed Atlas. Even though he’s there, he’s still quiet and looks like he’s hiding a few secrets in him, just as how it’s shown every time in the comic! I love it! Hopefully production goes wonderfully for you all!
I also love how he's still in greyscale even though everything else is in color
Now that you point it out, most of the scenery is greyscale besides Rocky and Mitzi, and some of the lighting. Really makes them stand out.
He also doesn't so much as glance at Rocky, compared to Mitzi giving him her full attention.
@@shadowldrago and it makes you wonder why Atlas allowed Rocky to work in his operations @ Lackadaisy, Mitzi prolly being the main reason why.
@@docavar5698 You know, I've never thought about why Rocky was hired until now...

In one sentence for this wonderful animation: "Everyone in the animation community is going to love this!" Very excited!
BRO WHY THESE SWING SONGS GOTTA SLAP SO HARD 💀💀💀
I just noticed that in the moment when Mitzi and Atlas's shadows stop in front of Rocky, the colors of the whole scene grow slightly warmer. It's very subtle, but it really does a lot for the mood, the way Mitzi's appearance shines sunlight over the dreary grays. The whole video is very atmospheric!
Ooo I see that too! That’s so cool
I said it once and I’ll say it again this is actually better than anything Disney has made for a while, You guys are making an actual masterpiece.
Disney, & all that it owns stocks on, are dying dinosaurs who're commiting the seppuku that is wokeness & political correctness. Plus, the truth about them being involved with sex/child trafficking, the C_A's Operation Monarch project, and subliminal occultic messaging is coming to light more so than ever. At this point in time, Lackadaisies animation is an absolute breath of fresh air for independent animation in total. I look forward to viewing how this'll unfold.
Also has the potential to be a lot more mature and adult-oriented than anything by Disney (there is blood shown, people (cats?) can die on screen, there are guns) while still having a style similar to Disney. All done 100% independently without a studio canning it for no reason or interfering to make it more in line with the trends or demographic. This is gonna be gold.
@@thepoleontheroad exactly it’s true art
@@thepoleontheroadhing is, in my mind it shouldn't be in line with the current demographic or trends. We're talking about the 1920's, a VERY different time compared to now, and as such it should be in line with how things were back then.
It's actually pretty damn sad what Disney and cartoon Network has become. They made the most impressive animated shows and now Disney is just spitting out shit remakes of their most classic historical movies. And cartoon network got bought by Discovery closing down their studio and literally canceling or moving every new animated shows to adult swim or Max.
It's very jarring seeing Rocky so cute and sweet despite all the misfortune around him after my introduction of him being him laughing maniacally whilst tossing dynamite everywhere
I love how there’s a pigeon just sitting peacefully on Rocky’s head
It's such a cute detail that there was no sun before that, but as soon as Mitzi approached Rocky, the sun appeared, and the sad colors became brighter. It looks so inspiring and beautiful, like a very small detail, but how it warms the heart 💕
I wanna be an animator one day…the fact I completely missed that makes me think im doomed..
@@FoxSqueeArt You don't have to immediately "get" the metaphors/symbolism if you want to become an animator :) details tend to become more apparent after watching it more than once anyway
@@FoxSqueeArtoh, don't think it like that, usually only people that have trained eyes (and by trained, I mean really trained) can notice those details on the first watches. I mean, I have been studying animation for like 2 years, and I didn't notice that detail as well, so, really, no reason to think that.
@@PolarNitaIsTired eh i suppose im just a lil perpetually down about the whole subject. My brain doesn’t work so good so learning how to draw is a…process. Well more like i still haven’t found a method that makes sense to me.
@@FoxSqueeArt well, I hope you manage to find a good method for you
Just checked the funding and the goal for it was at least $125,000… it’s been just 2 days and it’s currently at $728,000?!?!? That’s actually insane, godspeed to everyone helping back this amazing series
absolutely smashed the goal by nearly 8 times as of now
$1,003,330 in 6 days! wow
ok
ok
ok
As.his lil smile at the end is so cute x3
his smile at the end has me sobbing 😭😭
WE MAKING IT OUT OF THE PROHIBITION WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥
LMAO
HELL YEA
WOOOO
I have created a squeak easy so I’ll be just fine
YES SIR 🗣️🗣️💯💯
The pilot set the bar pretty high. Here's to hoping it lives up to the hype! 🍻
🍻
i really do hope we get to see more of rocky and freckles' past like i wanna know the reasons things got bad
I don't know how this is possible but this looks even better than the pilot. I've fallen in love with this series, congrats on creating this masterpiece of a series.
YES!!! I’m ready to FEEL again! 😍😭 P.S. Plz cast me. 🤞😬
I'd 100% die if they hired you for something on this project.
Haha XD
didnt know you were here
@@TheRedneckRoman16ME TOO!! I’ve wanted to be a part of this since the first 10 seconds of the pilot! 😂😭
SOMEONE FUCKING HIRE HIM. NOW!
Absolutely breathtaking, you can just feel the pre-great depression atmosphere, with rocky still holding onto his hope. We saw that alot in the pilot. Its been a long time coming, so glad to see lackadaisy getting the respect and admiration it deserved long ago!!
The Belle-epoch is the best epoch this side of the great war
We passed 1Million dollars!
He never cried, got mad, or stole anything despite his bad luck he kept moving forward he definitely earned that name Rocky
He joined a Gang and started a gang rival with the Marigolds though.
I have been reading this comic since the 7th Grade, I'm 25 now. It's amazing to see this series finally animated. Honestly can't wait to see what's in store.
COMIC?!?
@@MontyTheUmbreon Yup! i think there were comics before this animated series
yes!!! the series is based on a comic, one that's been going since 2005! it gives a little more context to what we're going to see in the series, plus the art is gorgeous!!! it's amazing to see how the creators have grown in both their art and storytelling skills. i'd totally recommend checking it out, it's totally free online ^^
I've been reading this comic since 2012 and now the kickstarter will have the chapters beautifully printed in a book. I can't wait!!
Guys, I beg, if you haven’t read the comic, GO READ IT. The world that is being built here is freaking phenomenal.
I started reading them 2 days ago and I finished them today OH BOY WHERE THESE COMICS GOOD
Not only is it a world that they are building, but it’s one that is actually quite historically accurate. It isn’t just inspired by the prohibition era, it *is* the prohibition era. There are so many specific historic details that you can point out what month the comic starts and around what *day* the pilot episode takes place (probably September 15th or 16th, 1927, as Mitzi is reading about the death of Isadora Duncan when we first see her)
where can i read the comics?
Um where I can find comics of this awesome trailer??
