Since that Summer in full swing, I think it'd be interesting to ask if you guys have any favorite Summer memories relating to comics and cartoons? Like being specifically hyped for a certain cartoon premiering or have a summer tradition that you did every year as a child? Bonus points if it involves the CN City Summer era.
Also here's some bumpers to set the mood: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XHgcpY1lFtg

I remember Nick had those beach promo where different nick characters would hang out.

Man, I didn't have CN as a kid, but one year I happened to stay at my grandmother's for a week and managed to get a week amount of summer '05 programming.
I couldn't wrap my head around the scheduling either (I was stuck with Nick for my whole TV life), it seemed like each day had a completely randomized scheduling and they had a bottomless supply of different shows to air.
Not really as a kid for this one, but summer 2010 was the motherfucking summer of Toy Story for me.
I was 12, and ultra hyped for Toy Story 3.I bought a shitload of Toy Story figures from flea markets and garage sales that summer, and played all of the video games via emulators. I must have watched Toy Story 1 and 2 about 20 times each that summer, along with all of the bonus features.
That year, my birthday present was going to see Toy Story 3, and it was the most excited I ever was for a movie. It met every expectation I had, and was the most incredible experience I ever had in a theatre, the only time I've ever been glad that it was packed. Grown adults crying left and right, it was amazing to see how effective it was.
Looking back, I see how much of an antisocial loser I was at the time, but I wouldn't have had it any other way.
Man, this was a fun summer. Not for any of the CN originals, but for watching re-dubbed, uncut DBZ every night before Adult Swim started.

Man, the music...
Summer of 2003, my mom took me to the library and they had the first large-print volume of Akira in stock as part of their initiative to provide some of that mangu all the kids were clamoring for. I got it and a How to Draw Anime and Video Game Characters book out. Sean Paul's "Get Busy" was being played basically on repeat on the radio at the time, so to this day I associate it with Akira (and specifically the motorcycle battle parts).

>Akira is not a comic
Anyway this is the closest thing to summer /co/ nostalgia that I've got without digging deep into the archives to find whatever one-off Disney comic I read during my family's Big Roadtrip when I was 7.
Plus I was hoping that people would find the music/content juxtaposition amusing if not endearing.

Akira is not a western comic.
