When I set out to draw Helen here taking a dick that was a little bigger than she was comfortable with, it begged the question: is every part of her super stretchy? If so when she had her kids those would likely have been the most painless deliveries in the history of human reproduction. And yes it's entirely possible that my job leaves me way too much time to think about stupid stuff. 

Edit: Literally the second I posted this I remembered her ability to turn her entire body into a parachute, so that answers my question. Guess at the time all I remembered was her stretching her limbs. 

As I've said in the past I love animated movies, but I prefer the ones that star human characters, (as opposed to talking animals and such.) So as one can likely guess, The Incredibles remains one of my all time favorites, and I'm pretty jazzed to have finally seen a proper trailer for the sequel just this week. 

As with any case of a sequel being made so long after the original, a concern is often whether or not the original talent can be rounded up. But against the odds, it looks like every cast member is back except Dash, which is understandable as I doubt his original actor's voice could still pass for a kid's. But I say "against the odds" for a few reasons. One is that I heard a rumor that Helen's voice actress, Holly Hunter, had a "no sequels" rule. But if anyone's got enough money to make her change her mind, it's Disney.

I thought perhaps Craig T. Nelson, the voice of Bob, may be unlikely to return due to the fact that he is well over two hundred years old as of this writing. But there he was in the trailer, sounding every bit like a spry ninety-year-old. (All kidding aside he sounds like he hasn't aged a day since Coach, which is downright spooky.) Fun fact, Mr. Nelson actually hails from my current hometown of Spokane, and when the first Incredibles came out he started popping up in TV and radio commercials for local businesses and charities, no doubt the result of old friends calling in favors. Be interesting to see if that happens again. 

And lastly I was surprised to see Sarah Vowell, the voice of Violet, return because if memory serves she's not even an actress by trade, and never was. She was just hired because she sounded distinct, and I can't argue with that. The character just wouldn't be the same without that warbly, squeaky little voice.    

Wow this has to be one of my longest blogs I've done in a while so I'll call it here. As always if you guys have anything to add I'd be happy to hear it.
