Kid Cosmic: Well-Worn Premise Skillfully Done
Kid Cosmic seems like the natural offspring of a few shows, and a few pieces of very prominent media.
Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir: A Classic 90’s Formula
Miraculous Has Some Miraculous Stuff To Show Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir is Sailor Moon, but for a modern audience, with surprisingly excellent CGI animation.

Why My Girlfriend Hates Iron Man
For the record, I think Robert Downey Jr can be a fantastic actor. I really enjoyed his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes and if you’ve ever seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, you know he has a talent for comedic timing.
