I love u Captain Underpants
If you've ever liked the books as a kid go see this movie, it's so fucking hilarious
Unironically nice blog post OP.
I grew up with the books as well, and even though my parents pushed me to read more advanced titles, i would always read a few pages of the books before bed most nights. The series has a great charm to it. I was actually inspired to create my own comic books because of George and Harold's antics, it was a great time

Captain Underpants got me through a hard time in my childhood and I honestly hate that I outgrew the books. I'll check it out sometime.

These books unironically inspired a generation.
I would check them out from the library at school and look forward to reading them when I would finish early on a state test or something. Also these books made me want to make my own comics when I was a kid(shitty ass stick figures, nowhere near Harold and George level artisty)I tried to get my brother to get into them but he thinks they're stupid

Captain Underpants inspired me to make my own characters, stories, and make little crafts of them to act out the stories when I was a kid. Looking back on it makes me want to eventually make my own webcomics and continue making more characters and stories.also sorta interested in probably making small games about them since gamedev is more open due to how many tools and resources there are to get you started.
