You are right, they can still be enjoyed, but you have to look past all of their flaws, and they are riddled with them. Hell, I would probably still buy the 90s Spider-Man toon on DVD if they ever actually did a complete collection.

What cartoon does hold up? Like none of them then, no '90s cartoon compares to the potential quality of modern shows really because they were made 20 years ago and technology has made some amazing advancements.

Gargoyles.

Batman: The Animated series would be like the only one to hold up based on its stories and the fact that it invented an animation style, and that's only counting the good episodes because almost every license based cartoon ever has at least two episodes which just aren't good (I'm looking at you "Prophecy of Doom").

Oh, BTAS definitely does have a bad episode, but you are talking about a series that had like 90 episodes. Not everyone is going to be good. Hell, I think Prophecy of Doom and The Underdwellers are terrible episodes. However, you have The Forgotten, The Demon's Head, Off-Balance, Robin's Reckoning, Heart and Ice, Feat of Clay, Perchance to Dream, The Trial of Batman, The Man Who Killed Batman, I Am The Night, and most importantly, Almost Got'Im to make you forget about those episodes.

TheBlueMarvel, I didn't fully stop reading Marvel ten years ago as I absolutely love JMS's run of Spider-Man. It just sucked that they ruined his entire run with the god awful Iron Spider and Civil War crap, but then insulted it with One New Day.

As for the money, no I'm not saying Disney is not in it for they money. They are a business after all. What I'm saying is that these comic companies are pooping out any and everything they can instead of actually having writers and continuity because they only care about the money. They don't give a crap what their readers think as long as someone is buying their titles or watching their movies. Disney though cares about their customers as much as they do about money.
