Description
With the release of the utterly disappointing "The Guardian Code" I think it's important to remember what made Reboot such a great franchise. I really loved the part where Matrix finally brings Bob back to Mainframe and you find out Dot's been holding out with her guerrilla forces the entire time. Made me wonder about the stories she must've had during those days!As for the new series... a lot of people chalk it up to a demographic problem where the show's targeted at a new, younger audience and not meant to be for older fans and honestly the issue is far beyond that. After skimming through the 10 episodes available I'm confident in saying that it's just terribly uninspired and so creatively dry that it'll be void of any semblance of the original's iconic run. Maybe they'll turn it around but I'm not optimistic.

I love it when someone can capture those moments we don't necessarily see on screen....
What stories indeed.
This moment feels like taking a breath in the quiet, in a world full of pain.
Beautiful.

Thank you for wonderful fanart of my two favorite characters from that show T_T

I have to agree with you - I took a peek at "The Guardian Code", and I was completely unimpressed...it's nothing like the original series at all... The story is generically boring, nothing can beat Tony Jay's performance as Megabyte, and the animation is just...eh... Makes me want to write my own head cannon for the series...
This, however, is a beautiful tribute to the original series - deep and emotional.

Lovely piece <3 Personally, I would have loved it if the new series was about how Dot, Mouse, and Fong lived during Megabyte's hold of Mainframe. Even if they had created a prequel about Mainframe before Bob, before Dot's father was nullfied.
BUt NOOOO. THEY DID A FREAKING FANFIC! The thing's basically a crossover of Kid Spies 3, Reboot and a bit of Tron with IronMan-sprinkles on it; wrapped in teenaged drama.

True, love Reboot but that guardian is the New Power Ranger that they stick a Reboot label on it. If you dont plan to please the old fans why using the same name? They should have create a new tv serie stealing the ideas of reboot bnut calling it something else its would be less damageable.
Great work has always. Mouse and Dot have a decent likeness. I wonder if you chould do Matrix in a Cable Pose.

She's my most favourite character with Dot as second.
Love those two!

I grew up on Reboot, it was one of my favorite shows and I loved it to bits. I had known from pretty early on that I wasn't interested in the reboot of Reboot, but I didn't even know it was already out!
Just wanted to say, I saw your pic on the front page and it made my day, it was so cool to see Reboot fanart and remind me of such a big part of my childhood.

I'm still avoiding it, nothing I hear is good about that damn thing...
I want our old reboot back

Yeah, I was awfully disappointed when I saw what the Reboot reboot (hah) was shaping up to be. Great work on this though!

Right in the childhood! Such good times back then ^-^ Too bad about the rebooted series being that bad, I'm not hearing anything positive so I'm a little scared to even check by this point. I think I'll keep the souvenirs of a fun show intact and keep it to the memories. X3

OMG REBOOT! I know there's a lot of stuff out there but it's always fun to see things from my first favorite 'CG' tv show... even if the cg is down right atrocious compared to today. Great art renditions.

I gave the new show 2 episodes and just couldn't force myself to watch any more. Love your take on the iconic characters.

Yeah, you'd think having a new series of "Reboot" would be awesome. It was the first CGI cartoon and with nowadays advances in Mo-Cap and such, "Reboot" could have blown peoples minds again.
But no.
This is JUST like that "Jem" live-action movie that had zero to do with the cartoon and came off more like a "Hannah Montana" ripoff.

Yeah I did not care for the show either. It seems like the show would have been better if it was a live action Code Lyoko. While I enjoyed the fact that they got everyone they could to reprise their roles from the original, some of them felt very phoned-in (I'm looking at you BOB. Tony Jay is dead so they had to replace Megabyte and he was convincing what's your excuse?) I also would have liked to see Matrix and AndrAIa.

Episode 10 of the new show was a big middle finger to all the fans. Never seen a betrayal like this before.

This is simply beautiful work, You captured the raw emotion of Dot Matrix so perfectly in this. Alongside Mouse comforting her as well which looks and feels so genuine.

Oh. My god. This is PERFECT. You captured the feel SO perfectly. The angst of Dot, and comforting hand of Mouse. <3 LOVE IT!

Sad to hear it's not very good. :\ I even had a quick look at the trailer and yeah... it does not look that great.
Still really great to see Reboot art. <3

Man I heard their voices while looking at this!
Thanks for the great trip down memory lane!

I love this show. I am sad to hear the new release does not hold up to the original's greatness. This pic is gorgeous. Mouse and Dot were such great characters.

I wouldn't hold my breath that the reboot will get any better. I, myself, haven't even clicked on the trailer. I have no desire to give TGC any more attention than it deserves.
I'll see you in a few weeks at Ottawa Comic Con and I'll be picking this one up to join the others I've got previous years. Always love your work. I'm 100% jealous of your abilities.

Just heard about the "next gen" reboot thanks to your art. I wish I didn't.

But I enjoyed watching a few videos about the original Reboot, to remember this great serie and the two ladies you drew there. Wish you could draw a few more panels about what should have been "the code guardian"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Don't have the time to draw but if I made a Reboot "revival" for new young audience....
It'd be based in the Guardian Academy and have 4 new cadet characters with some colorful backgrounds. It'd have an exploratory feel to it, where the cadets must visit and protect several systems across the net to meet the radical growth of it?
I'd use the old cast sparingly in cameos and as support characters so newer ones can shine, while continue building concepts/lore based on what was established by the original~ I think it'd be really exciting to come up with ideas based on Smartphones and Apps

Need to know what happens to Bob!

Ugh, Guardian Code was awful. Especially that painful nostalgia grab that was episode 10. It literally looked worse than the original. The whole show was basically them taking Code Lyoko, shitting out a live action version, and slapping the Reboot name on it. It was an embarrassment.

Sad part is, Code Lyoko had a live action version

Agreed.
When you make a reboot of a show (especially a show with a decent sized fan base) you must keep in mind one thing. Fans of the previous incarnation will watch the show.
Also for those who wish to watch all four seasons of original series here is a link for your viewing pleasure.

One more thing if you are using Internet Explorer it will not play, works fine on FireFox but they don't like Noscript and you may have to hit temporally allow all a couple of time before it plays. Crome not tested.

Better than the crap they rebooted. I mean seriously, that show back in the day was a pioneer being all CG and today where that's the norm they make a terrible looking live action series like it's the 00's?!
