Of course, in this case, it was already dead. It was brought by force for nefarious purposes. In other words, these reboots are basically necromancy.

You know, people compare this artstyle to gravity falls, steven universe, Gumball and etc.
but atleast the artstyle of Steven universe and gravity falls is appealing and lovable. And don't get me started on Gumball. I've only seen like 2 episodes so far but that show has amazing and creative animation.
This, however, just looks ugly and lazy. the whole design of the character has been stupified and minimized to the point where if you show this new Lion-o to a fan of Thundercats, they would think, at best, that it's from a youtube parody of Thundercats
