...their essentials, leaving just enough to establish place and convey the character's emotions. Katharine Washington's face is made of an inverted pentagon with two dots and five strokes for features, but her range outdoes that of many real actresses. Watson could give lessons in the economics of cartoon characterization. "Dumped," has an even more interesting look, with a gray wash, and slightly degraded lines that come either from rough paper or hard pencil...
...Calif., business is booming. Every week dozens of youngsters with Asperger syndrome file in and out of therapy sessions while their anxious mothers run errands or chat quietly in the waiting room. In one session, a rosy-cheeked 12-year-old struggles to describe the emotional reactions of a cartoon character in a video clip; in another, four little boys (like most forms of autism, Asperger's overwhelmingly affects boys) grapple with the elusive concept of teamwork while playing a game of 20 Questions.

...extensive critical commentary. Mattel has decided to relaunch the He-Man toy line in July 2002. The new toys will be very similar to the play line that was so popular in the ’80s. In conjunction with the toys, Mattel is also working on an accompanying cartoon series. There will be a one-hour special depicting the origins of He-Man and subsequent episodes will run regularly on Cartoon Network. “The new show will be geared towards a more adult audience than the original,” says Angell. “It?...
