History WesternAnimation / Fangbone

Of the evil magic big toe of the Venomous Drool\\

* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: Averted with the Porcupenguin, a giant penguin monster with [[AnIcePerson freezing breath, icicles growing from its back,]] and a ferocious temperament. It's one of Drool's favorite monsters to use against Bill and Fangbone.

* BalefulPolymorph:
** The [[{{Pun}} Mo-Ar Go-At]] curse turns people into goats by contact in the same manner as zombies. The difference is that mere touching won't do; it has to be a [[UseYourHead headbutt]].
** A Skullbanian forgemaster named Ingrit whose spirit was placed inside an axe and then a waffle iron. It doesn't get in the way of her job.

* FauxHorrific: Twinkle-Stick shudders at the thought of a park-keeper's head being [[BalefulPolymorph turned into a goat's]] then his entire body [[CoveredInGunge covered in butter]]. It offsets the more horrific fates of other part-keepers; one was eaten by a [[LizardFolk man-lizard]] and another was turned [[BodyHorror inside-out]].

* TurtlePower: The Infuriosa, a monster tortoise with DoppelgangerSpin powers that Venomous Drool sends out as the MonsterOfTheWeek in "The Defeat of Glory".

* AnAxeToGrind: Many Skullbanian inhabitants, both barbarians and monsters, use massive battleaxes as weapons.
* AwesomeMcCoolName: Pretty much all the Skullbanian barbarians have these, like Fangbone, Axebear, Stoneback the Solid, and Hammerscab.

** The [[IncrediblyLamePun Mo-Ar Go-At]] curse turns people into goats by contact in the same manner as zombies. The difference is that mere touching won't do; it has to be a [[UseYourHead headbutt]].

''Fangbone!'' is the AnimatedAdaptation of bestselling children's author Creator/MichaelRex's hit graphic novel series ''Literature/FangboneThirdGradeBarbarian'', produced by Canadian studio Radical Sheep Productions (the creators of ''Series/TheBigComfyCouch''). The show was developed for television by Simon Racioppa and Richard Elliott (who had previously done the same for ''WesternAnimation/{{Grossology}}'', and had also created ''WesternAnimation/{{Spliced}}''), although uniquely for a cartoon of its type, Michael Rex was heavily involved in its production as an executive producer and concept artist.

* CastFromSanity: The Helmet of Dulling is a cursed horned helmet that converts the wearer's intellect into brawn. It can make someone a nigh unstoppable behemoth, strong enough to toss buildings around, which is good because they'd be too dumb to survive otherwise.

* AdaptationBackstoryChange: While the original books gave Fangbone and Bill a backstory as to how they became friends, the show opts to throw that out of the window and give them a completely new origin story with the OriginsEpisode "The Forging of Friendship".

The show's pilot "Warbrute of Friendship" was originally aired in 2014 on the Canadian version of Creator/DisneyXD to warm reception (including multiple awards). Unfortunately, due to some major shifts in Canadian kids' TV, the show's release was delayed to 2016, and it instead debuted on Creator/FamilyCHRGD. The show did air on Disney XD outside of Canada however, although [[ScrewedByTheNetwork its poor treatment in the United States]] resulted in the series running for only a single season of 26 episodes and ending on a cliffhanger.

* MultiPartEpisode: "The Warbrute of Friendship", "The Duck of Always", "The Field of Trip of Mayhem", "The Breaker of Oaths", and "The End of the Beginning" are full half-hour episodes divided into a Part 1 and Part 2.

-->'''[[https://animesuperhero.com/forums/threads/fangbone-fan-q-a-with-michael-rex-simon-racioppa-and-richard-elliott.5560601/ Michael Rex]]:''' Everything that has been added was done to open up the show, and allow for more varied stories. Skullbania doesn’t get much time in the books, but the creative team felt that it needed to be a big part of the show. Twinkle-Stick was created as a way for Fangbone to stay a bit more connected to his home world. Drool was greatly expanded on as well. He only lurks in the background in the books. Even though his actions are constantly felt, he doesn’t really get to do much.

* AdaptationExpansion: The series expands greatly upon the content of the ''Fangbone! Third Grade Barbarian'' books, adding a much larger cast of characters and building upon the setting of Skullbania. Notably, Venomous Drool is actually a much more prominent character in the show than he was in the original books.

* AnimatedAdaptation: Of Michael Rex's graphic novel series ''[[https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/DOK/fangbone-third-grade-barbarian Fangbone! Third Grade Barbarian]]''. For the most part, the show is pretty faithful to the books (most of the changes are pretty minor), but rather than directly adapting the stories told in them, it opts to create completely new adventures for the cast.

* BarbarianLonghair: many Skullbanians possess these.

He was blasted to our planet, but can he keep us safe?!
