The Wardens Dad From Superjail!

[adultcruisin]

Rb if your parents fell asleep at the TV too often and you were forever traumatized by Adult Swim shows

[superfail]

i imagine that the warden’s “I made that, i’m a genius” instinct would override his “the innocence of children drives me to Violence™️” instinct, and that is my only somewhat canon-compliant explanation for how my warden fankids were lucky enough to never encounter his inner child

Characters that are from shows that are not for kids

[kristinmrshmeow]

Superjail sona !!!

I draw it in paint, so it doesn't look very good.....

She's another doctor's experiment with dna

He decided to experiment with the dna of the staff individually, this is one of the successful experiments

She's a cute killing machine, not everyone wants to kill her.... but she won't disdain to kill a inmate if she doesn't like him..... of course, she has weaknesses.... Kris has a piece of kindness in her, so if Kris likes a inmate, she will save his life

thanks to the Warden's dna, she is capable of regeneration and shapeshifting and also a mechanical hand with sharp claws and a pistol (it makes a pistol gesture and shoots)

Kris is very devoted to the staff, MOST of all to Warden, as she considers him a dad

She's gLoWiNg

Pronouns: She/theyhe/it

Prisoners address Kris on "it"

heh :3

my spouse and I were talking about this but I think one of the reasons hazbin hotel & helluva boss are so popular is because - think about it: when have we ever had an adult animation series like this?

We’ve got the Seth McFarlane-type shows (Family Guy, American Dad, and all those other variations studios have made) - typical crude humor and situational comedy with characters staying largely the same over 20+ years

We’ve got the chaotic, bloody, slapstick shows like Superjail - but there’s never any substantial plot or character development. Which is fine, these are the shows I watch stoned and I’m not looking for much

We’ve also got the “decent” adult animation like Bob’s Burgers (my spouse also said Bojack Horseman was alright, but I haven’t seen it myself so I have no opinion) I’d say Futurama and The Simpsons could be considered as such too, and both were/are super popular

And yes Hazbin/Helluva are also filled with sex jokes and swearing just like most adult animation, but there is also meaning and purpose to the events that happen. It has relatable characters with relatable flaws who actually go through important development (and yeah I know people who don’t like the shows will argue here but honestly if it’s not your show it’s not your show and that’s fine)

And with regard to animation, it’s just nice not to see the same mass-produced cal-arts style shit that seems to have taken over in the last couple decades. The only thing I could compare Hazbin/Helluva’s style to is Invader Zim (which iirc Viv did in fact get inspiration from that art style) - which was a *kid’s* cartoon. Remember how popular *that* was? All the Hot Topic merch?? (taking this opportunity to say this would be the perfect time for a JTHM animated series but I digress)

Big also: when has it ever been a *musical*?? (I’m not counting shows that have a special song episode occasionally) like how many adult animated shows have a fuckin BANGER OST???

Genuinely when was the last time an adult animation *made for and geared toward adults* checked all the following boxes ? :

-unique and attention-grabbing art style

-fun and compelling characters

-actual plot/lore and cohesive storytelling

-great music (some of the VAs were on broadway ffs)

-doesn’t force itself to be somewhat family-friendly for the sake of marketability

I’m not saying that it doesn’t have flaws or is the #1 best show ever - I know there’s plenty of good adult animation out there, but I just feel like there are a lot of unique aspects to these two shows that we just really don’t get with typical adult animation.

The warden and the twins are at some odd agreement of having each other around

The twins are often referred to in the same sense of inmates despite being able to wear their own clothes, leave superjail, and have a personalized room. As Jared said it's their "privileges" it's also implied nobody knows why the twins are in superjail the only person who probably knows is the warden what most likely happened is the twins showed up one day and didn't want to leave to the warden made them "inmates" and they probably left it at that

The warden and the twins are both conditioned to violence and chaos as an "activity" so they both find interest in each others activities they both also crave control in situations they want to have things their way and if it isn't they'll throw violent fits over it though the twins are always calmer than the warden I think that's because the twins are used to being walked all over by their family their broodling, their dad, even their dog have always been in charge of them.and hurt them so despite craving control they're used to not having it

Unlike the triplets who throw a massive rage filled fit when things didn't go their way much like the warden the wardens need for control falls back in his status as a warden his entire childhood so both the twins and the warden are emotionally immature abused man children who crave power and fine themselves pushing each others buttons to get control the warden winning with not only his control over their temporary home but their overall safety which the warden has used against them to humble them a bit but he doesn't actually have any violent intentions against them they both entertain each other the twins calling the warden a genius and a buffoon and the warden calling the twins Artists and trouble causers they both serve a purpose to each other that they unknowingly need because without the warden the twins lack safety and control

and without the twins the warden lacks anticipation and stimulation the problem being that all that is fairly replaceable to the warden but he keeps them around because he enjoys their mischief more than the average chaos of superjail I think the twins depend on that need for chaos to a harmful degree because they're not used to caring about the lives of others or anyone really not even themselves it's shown the twins are rather obedient if they feel they need to be like how they blatantly disrespectful their father yet compliment and lie to impress the triplets they seem to fear them more

It probably has to do with the fact the triplets are the favorites they are the perfect ones the better ones the twins respect them because they were conditioned since birth to respect how better they were in comparison I think it also has to deal with the fact the triplets often beat and berate the twins showing the two are fairly afraid of them and their anger so despair their bratty behavior it shows the twins feel comfortable and safe around the warden in a way they don't feel around their family they're also not shy of helping the warden when they find it fun like the ice cream mountain situation but after being refused they massacre the ice cream mountain in a humorous hissy fit the warden still not minding despite the damage only being excited that the inmates actually cared about the ice cream mountain that much

Also in that comic when referring to the twins the warden says to not trust their pretty boy looks because they love causing trouble showing even despite their lack of order the warden not only finds them entertaining but also shows some attraction to them the twins also in that comic make a dirty minded joke about creamy wet dreams to the warden but seemingly just for shits and giggles

they both seem to lead each other on and press each others buttons for fun both of them practically challenging each other for control over a situation complimenting, insulting but also somewhat flirting with each other when they do rarely meet both sharing the same sentiments about entertainment and shared morals of how they were raised and trauma they're normalized to would put them in a complicated hot and messy relationship the twins are also shown to be fairly lonely their only comfort being each other at times and it shows they actually do crave some kind of relationship with someone though both seem to have relationships in an odd or different way

I love over examining they're like 2 episode relationship

Superjail Convict Headcanons, because Yes. (Part 1, I have so many)

Nicky

Italian

Used to be fluent in Italian as a child but didn't speak it as much as a teenager and mostly forgot it as an adult

Not a dog lover but really cared and loved that dog

Only child, but lived with his cousins, uncles, aunties, grandpa and his single mom

In his mid 30s

He was never IN the mafia but definitely some of his uncles and friends are in the mafia, who were mostly associates and soldiers. He was friends with almost every criminal in NYC (mostly because of his friends and uncles) and still keeps contact with them.

He was a scammer. Used to scam people by being a fake taxi driver and selling fake tickets. He got caught by an undercover cop when he was in the airport, picking up tourist

Always skipped and Didn't pay attention to his class. Definitely cheated in every exam and passed. Was able to graduate High School but never went to College

The arm tattoo is his girlfriend, from Cleveland

Ash Firin

Long lost half brother of Nicky (this Headcanon was from this tumblr user cobalt-punk? I think. Who said that Ash's dad looked similar to Nicky and I really liked that HC, so it stuck with me)

In his mid 20s

Pushed around a lot by his "friends” and forced him to join their crimes because of his speciality in fire

Was caught by Jailbot, after he accidentally burned down the hospital when petting the pony (during s3 ep10). Also he was in that hospital because his friends left him behind and he got beaten up by the guys who were chasing them

Didn't have any extended family to take care of him, after his dad abandoned him.

His love for fire started after the incident in the theater and got his fire powers when he was in superjail (probably because of the twins)

Had a lonely childhood, most of the kids bullied or were scared of him because of his appearance (after the incident in the theater).

Might have set a kid's hair on fire when he was in the orphanage

Lived in the orphanage until he was 18. Was never adopted

Gary Sedi

In his early 40s

Was a serial killer and a librarian (idk he gives me that vibe)

Had a good childhood, never bullied or abused but was super anti social and his only friend was Bird

Lived in a small town during childhood and early adulthood

I think his real voice is soothing and he's able to change the way his voice sounds, before his old warden cuts his tongue. Because i REFUSE to believe that's his real voice

Bird has been with him since he was a kid, given to his parents as a birthday gift

His weakness: When he doesn’t have his glasses on he can’t see shit

Definitely one of the healthiest and well kept inmates. Has his American Psycho routine

Back then, even if he had his tongue and vocal cords he was a very quiet man. He was friendly (maybe not sincere) to people and talked if needed

[i-have-no-idea-for-name]

It's not a question here but I really wanna recommended you some interest that I think you'll liked:

•Brawlstars.

•Cookierunovenbreak.

•FNF (friday night funkin').

•Steven universe.

Well my blog is mainly about dhmis and my fankids and that's what I like the most right now and I really appreciate you wanting to suggest something but the only thing you mentioned that I like is Steven Universe.

and for now the only thing other than dhmis that I will want to draw will be my two adopted dads from the fanfic thanks to which I learned more English in 2 years than in my whole life at school XD and I'm talking about Once-ler and Warden from @the-once-ler-in-superjail but this will probably happen in about a hundred years :')

Sorry :'D

Some more Krista lore (who knew????) because holy cow. I am on a roll

Another CW for a brief mention of alcoholism. Also this one I think is more depressing than the first

• Same as how she sunburns easily, she also flusters very, VERY easily. One kiss or embarrassing moment has her turning red as a tomato.

• She also sucks at handling spicy food. Pretty picky, too. Her favorite food is probably French fries.

• Her dad used to play sonic games a lot with her as a child. Although she generally tries to avoid anything to do with the memory of her father, Sonic is a franchise she holds dear to her heart. She can also speak Czech pretty well, a language her father taught her when she was young and stuck with her. She isn’t sure why she chose to remember it—maybe in an act of defiance, probably.

• Doesn’t hate it when people bring up her height… but doesn’t love it either, though she and Nicky used to joke about their large height difference.

• Gets absolutely shitfaced after one drink. Because of this she usually tries to avoid alcohol in general—like smoking, she’s been sober from it for a year.

-Speaking of getting drunk, she has a “thirty and flirty” tattoo located on her leg she got when she was hammered… she was also 21, not 30.

• After breaking up with Nicky, Krista ended up living a life and doing stuff she deeply regrets and completely refuses to talk about that period of her life with anybody.

-In fact, the reason she got the janitor job in the first place was that Bruce recommended it to the Mistress because he felt bad for her, having gone through similar stuff in life

• Grew up the middle child and only girl of five children. Actually likes the idea of being a mother but is scared she’ll turn out like her mom.

• She definitely doesn’t like her job. She finds it exhausting to being left to clean the entire prison with the occasional help of Nova and absolutely hates having to interact with UP inmates. However, she’s thankful for it. She has nothing left waiting for her in the non-Superjail world, and she just hopes she can earn enough money to rebuild her life once her sentence is up.

Superjail #9: “Dream Machine” | November 23, 2008 - 11:45PM | S01E08

Everyone say hello to Superjail! This episode is a fun one, and I consider it “nice” as well. In this one, the Warden starts having a very scary nightmare that the inmates are going to overthrow the prison. So, he decides to attach his Wonderful Wubulous dream machine to all the inmates' heads in order to monitor their psyches. The Warden goes crazier and crazier, in part due to the mischievous twins being bad with it. The episode more-or-less devolves into a big old wacky dream-world battle, with dreams within-dreams, animation style changes (at least one, anyway!) and a fun ending that I couldn’t believe I forgot all about. 

The Warden’s suspicions extend to his staff, featuring a memorable moment where he looks at Jailbot’s dreams, who just wishes he were human and that the Warden was his dad. Right? That’s what happens, I think. I didn’t take very good notes for this episode and then I forgot I didn’t actually finish this write-up, so I’m going off the dome for this, one day later. Anyway, Jailbot’s dream is in CGI. Jarred dreams he’s a big guy and that the Warden is little. …A little GAY that is! THE TWO DUDES KISS! Cool!! Alice’s dreams that the Warden is a bug and says “quit bugging me”. Alice's lines are a part of the show that I routinely forget to talk about as being good. Allow that last sentence to get me off the hook about that for a while.

The Dream Machine is based on The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T and the Women, a film I remember watching during the pandemic. It was a time when I literally would watch 2-4 movies in a single day, and I remember very little from it other than the iconic costumes and sets that I actually remember from before I saw the movie, when I'd randomly come across stills for the movie and think "that movie looks great. I should watch it", so it’s almost like I never watched it.

There’s probably a second-or-third-hand Luis Buñuel reference I could have jammed in here somewhere. Did you know that every time a person has a dream that is revealed to be inside of another dream it’s a reference to The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie? Probably not really, but every time it happens in a movie, somebody on IMDB will edit the trivia section (under “connections”) saying it’s an intentional reference to this. At this moment, nobody has done this for the Superjail episode “Dream Machine”. Please don't! 

This is a fun one, but I regretted not doing druuuuuuuuugs for it. I should have eaten one of those dollar bills covered in fentanyl that cops love so much. I wish I drank a big thing of poison for this episode. It would’ve been so badass.

Have you read any of the Space Ghost comics released from 1997 to 2001? I found them to be pretty good, especially the one where Space Ghost and Brak get invited to an awards show.

I haven't, but I MIGHT! I think I have a couple. Every single comic book ever made is easily findable online, so maybe I'll give those a look soon, and MAYBE I will refer to them in some context during my next SPACE GHOST WEEK.

It is probably nice of me to remind everyone that when this calendar year of Adult Swim reviews is over, I will be tackling the 1999 episodes of Space Ghost, then when I finish 2009 I'll probably do the GameTap episodes. Haven't figured out what I'll do after that, but maybe it'll be nice?

i barely know shit abt superjail i just thought lord stingray’s design was cool and his kid would make a good/funny foil to kid ray—

electrolux, lord stingray’s daughter

electrolux was either born with electrokinesis or had it built into her suit, but all that matters is that she uses it to be a menace to society. having been raised by a foster family and her dad’s phone calls from superjail, she arrived at tumblr high determined to fulfill her dad’s legacy and strike fear into the hearts of the student body.. usually by committing petty crimes and promptly being sent to detention.

a mixup when assigning chaperones for a field trip led to her being introduced to kid ray and the two becoming best friends, forming a team rocket-esque duo of amateur villains. he assists her with her plans and she gives him sagely advice like “how to craft a shiv” and “if you charge a metal utensil with electricity, you can create a makeshift taser and use it to try bluffing your way out of detention”. ironically, these teachings means that their dads hate each other’s guts now.

[kendallroysmethpipe]

not a lot but yeaa B) also idk if you meant friends as in like. our friends or the Show Friends. but either or those are both things i like. also <3 horror on here<333 my lifelong sp/in i need 2 know what ur faves are sooo bad. also so surprised to see adult swim here that's one of my first sp/ins ever i honestly wanna get back into it.. i've been slowly rewatching robot chicken (<- apologies for insanity but did u know that ben was involved w the show at one point...) what're ur favorite shows 👁👁. also i wANT toget into twin peaks so bad.......

I MEANT FRIENDS AS IN MY FRIENDS NOT THE SHOW MAYBE I SHLD HAVE MADE THAT CLEARER 😭 BUT THAT'S SO REAL horror movies are literally like my one true love. It's sooo hard to answer that question because like my favorite horror franchise is Evil Dead. But none of them r like... In my top 10. And I have other horror movies that r in my top 10 like Midsommar is one of them but it's not my favorite horror movie. I don't know I hope that makes sense LOL...

I WAS LITERALLY LIKE. RAISED BY ADULT SWIM LOL one of my like earliest memories was my mom and step dad giving me every season of ATHF on dvd for Christmas when I was like 8 I used to fall asleep to it... I have soooo many favorites, ATHF is one of them for sure. Space Ghost/The Brak Show, Superjail, Home Movies, Moral Orel... There's so many good ones 😭 ROBOT CHICKEN IS FUCKING AWESOME TOO I USED TO STAY UP SO LATE TO WATCH IT LOL

AND U MUSTTTTTTT WATCH TWIN PEAKS PLEASE PLEASE FOR ME 🙏🙏🙏 IT'S MY FAVORITE SHOW EVER IN THE WORLD. SOOO GOOD ITS SO GOOD UR GOING TO LOVE DALE

[superfail]

Please tell me what your au is about pls don't make me scroll down PLEASEEE !!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

wasn’t sure which one you meant, so here’s a brief summary of all of them under the cut (excluding walden and kardhaus, who are mostly joke ocs)

fantabastille au: a mainly oc-centric au mainly about the warden and mistress’ son, jailer! this takes place in the future!warden timeline, so jailer ends up getting caught up in the middle of the warden and the mistress’ war for control of earth and becomes the warden of his own division of superjail/ultraprison for his own safety. from there, he and his staff run the titular prison like a hotel/containment area for all sorts of aliens that might want to wage war on superjail/ultraprison

warden 2.0 au: a “what if” scenario based on the episode jailbot 2.0, wherein jailbot 2.0 takes control of the warden and the rest of the staff have to fight a lot harder to get superjail back to normal.

first draft au: an au in which all the characters use their concept designs/incorporate unused ideas.

future!stingray au: wherein lord stingray becomes dictator of the world in the future instead of the warden. the au primarily focuses on the (extremely dysfunctional) ultrajail/superprison alliance’s efforts to take stingray down and restore things to normal.

electrolux and warren are actually part of a larger tumblr-wide collaborative au called sexyman descendants, they have stories of their own but they’re not overtly connected to superjail besides the parts where they interact w their respective dads.

stepbros au: haven’t posted much about this one, but it’s an au where all my warden fankids (including the joke ones) are simultaneously canon and live with the warden + first draft!warden in superjail. yes, this setup is exactly as much of a nightmare as you’d think.
