While I’m all for some Bill the Cat, was he ever actually animated? I didn’t think he ever made it off the comic page.

Gloop (The Herculoids)

No He-Man? You need He-Man. I voted He-Man as a write in.

It’s true. *Someone* did write-in He-Man (Masters of the Universe) for the Animated division.

Trinity (she was animated in one of the Animatrix sequences, I think?)
Ripley from Aliens was also suggested, but I don’t think she’s ever been featured in a cartoon, and none of the Alien movies has ever been Palooza-bait.
