I think that after the whole betrayal of Sedusa in "Aspirations," the Gangreen Gang were through with prostitutes, gold-diggers, anyone that'll manipulate them for money & material things. They've learned their lesson that blind lust is no substitute for real love & desires.
But the powderpuff girls are in a way. Apart of dc (they often have crossovers) so.. maybe they are universe jumpers? They did go to space once to advertise a watch after all.
Ace from the Powerpuff Girls just promoting Gorillaz. And, also Gorillaz appear as a cameo from The Powerpuff Girls Movie (2001). That Professor Utonium reads the newspaper with a picture of the Gorillaz.
I read that Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett were good friends with Craig McCracken the show's creator and he allowed them to use him as a temporary fill in for Murdoc. Also he was supposedly similar to Murdoc. I was wondering why he looked familiar though so I looked it up
So the tidbit about Russel being an X-man is misinformation. The school was called "Xavier's School for Young Achievers" and is in no way affiliated with "Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters"
Another fun fact about Ace being in Gorillaz: Ace's presence in the band was just a more obvious reference between PPG and Gorillaz, which have been going back and forth between the two franchises since they came out in the late 90s. If memory serves, it's because Craig McCracken and Jamie Hewlett were friends, and they would subtly support each other through these references over the years.
Another reason Gorrilaz is F'N awesome!!!!! In the valley made of mirrors oh the light is so bright, you can feel like a pagan you can feel like a pagan in the valley
I... didn't know the extent of the lore... Not even close. I cannot describe how surprising this is to me and probably to anyone who knew me in the early 2000s (not a Gorillaz superfan, would have caught it then, but def a casual fan. And _a nightmare_, unless you were a bigger AHole about music nerd/fandom)
Technically, Russel was kicked out of Xavier’s because they didn’t count being possessed by a ghost as a mutation. Although he’s technically been possessed for so long that they could reevaluate him.
The best part is the Gorillaz can be seen on the back of a newspaper in Powerpuff Girls
What episode was this?
^^This. What episode was it???
Og ppg or new one?
@@SaoirseVisceral the old one
@@jeye.781 the movie
Fun Fact: Gorillaz canonically exist in the same Universe as the Powerpuff Girls
I wAnDeR wHy
"no alcohol or prostitutes" lmao
💀
No Murdoc
But cut to 2D trippin
"Got it. Weed and loose women it is then."

Imagine getting replaced by a Powerpuff girls character 💀
It’s iconic
imagine getting replaced by a robot in 2010 💀💀
imagine getting replaced by a drum machine in 2010 💀
@@vantasm😂😂… Benson smh
😂 sounds like itd be brutal 💀
the only time i ever followed gorillaz lore was during the now now's album cycle and that was so WILD to see unfolding in real time
And then sound machine could've been cool, but wasn't really, and then cracker island literally just happened
Weird memories honestly
“Humility” gives me butterflies. 2D just looks so good in it
@@Frxnm4 lmao i feel like a lot of people are, especially after humility
Yall are down horrendous
I'm down so fucking bad for 2D in booty shorts and a tank top
@@horseconfusedsame I’m sucking crazy (I’m lying and I don’t really feel attractive to 2d I just want attention)
he always looks beautiful
Hold up, Russel is a mutant... Gorillaz is a part of Marvel comics?!
and I love both fandoms. russel was MADE for me it seems hahah
But the powderpuff girls are in a way. Apart of dc (they often have crossovers) so.. maybe they are universe jumpers? They did go to space once to advertise a watch after all.
@@IZabellaArtZ if that is the case then it makes one wonder how they are able to universe hop so easily lore wise
Apparently they have access to portals and GTA before Rockstar was all “I don’t Fancy that, knock it off”
I guess his growing into a giant is a part of his mutation.
If they ever bring back Ace, he should talk.
Yeah! I really hope that happens soon.
Can't wait for Russell to show up in secret wars
Damn, I wish Jeff Bennet was able to voice Ace. That would’ve made the crossover perfect.
there is a clip of him on yt saying random Gorillaz lyrics in ace’s voice which is awesome and it ends with badabing 😂
@@tcaf4121do you have the link?????
@@tcaf4121 That was awesome!
That fact Russel is a X men
i thought that ace was just a wacky design change for murdoc, and now i am going to implode
just like the oceangate titan subma-
How tf did you not know
@@NATURALHARMONIAGROPIUSSPRITE I also just came in contact with this band. I was also confused.
Like the fact that Russell is an x-man
Ace from the Powerpuff Girls just promoting Gorillaz. And, also Gorillaz appear as a cameo from The Powerpuff Girls Movie (2001). That Professor Utonium reads the newspaper with a picture of the Gorillaz.
Sad we couldn't hear him talk
I always knew Ace looked familiar!
I would like to believe if Craig McCracken had the PPG back, he would have been more lenient on what Ace could do.
I've been summoned
I love the idea that Acd is just clean living guy now, he's left his gangrene days in the past and is just a normal green man lol😂
That's fucking brilliant!!
How did a powerful girl character get to play on Gorillaz and I can't even get a 3 on math😭
I read that Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett were good friends with Craig McCracken the show's creator and he allowed them to use him as a temporary fill in for Murdoc. Also he was supposedly similar to Murdoc. I was wondering why he looked familiar though so I looked it up
Noodle just said hey d head its my room get out
i want ace back because not only did je replace murdoc hes also so pretty in the gorillaz style
I wouldve loved to hear ace even a little bit in the now now.
So the tidbit about Russel being an X-man is misinformation. The school was called "Xavier's School for Young Achievers" and is in no way affiliated with "Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters"
That’s the equivalent of mutant community college.
Bro got the community College diploma for mutants then
Ive had a crush on ace for 10 years now helpe
And humility
now we all know that gorillaz is in power puff girls universe
So this is Ace... I thought it's new Murdoc designe
Bros head shaped like the moon
Thats sick
Comic Dubbers: Fine, I’ll do it myself
I figured about Ace. He was inspired by Powerpuff girls. I love that show as a child growing up. Thats awesome.
I keep forgetting and remembering this fact and every time is absolutely mind blowing to me
Tbh before I figured out that ace was the one on the bass in now now I thought it was murdoc with a new look then I noticed and felt stupid asf
I remember having a crush on Ace as a kid
I knew it they looked alike
Yes
Ngl ace can play a bass

Is nobody gonna talk about the thing w 2D??????
nah
No, because they are jealous.
(No offense)
I think murdoc would knock professor x off his chair and start riding it like deadpool
Bro whattt😭😭😭
The only one I didn't know about was Russel going to Xavier's School, Marvel is officially canon in the Gorillaz universe lol.
Unpopular opinion, I liked Ace so much better than Murdock
Yeah, his basslines are funkier than Murdoc's, examples, fireflies and kansas
i knew ive seen ace somewhere
Gonna EXPLODE I love gorillaz so much
Another reason Gorrilaz is F'N awesome!!!!! In the valley made of mirrors oh the light is so bright, you can feel like a pagan you can feel like a pagan in the valley
Gorillaz is just something that is truly unique and can never be replicated again with its fictional characters and lore building.
If i remember correctly they had to settle for ace because another character wasn't available
Oh? Who was that if you dont mind me asking?
imagine dating a cartoon
This video is approved my me.
Demon days was my favorite
It’s like so great that i know their lore now I just finished reading an article explaining it all 😍😍
I didn't know noodle wrote demon days, thats awesome
30:34 just leavin this here for Rn
Imagine being replaced by a power puff girls character
bro the ace thing is literally one of the BEST KNOWN facts! >:(
This is so super awsome!
My sister has the poster

Ace looks like Bill Hader.

Murdoc got replace by ace
Well that just got me higher.
❤❤❤❤
Wait a second, where did you get that Russell X-Man information?
Imagine getting replaced by a powerpuffgirls villan
I like how these all sound like someone bullshiting you but theyre all true
Ik
That was actually Ace from PPG and not some fan making stuff up? Neat.
Cool
I tought he was murdoc just like diferent or som lol
so you saying there's a chance that the powerpuff girls can duke it out with marvel characters.
WHAT.
That means that the gorillaz exist with aqua teen hunger force 😂😂
Why was he in prison
He was framed by a criminal
Oh ok
I think a parking ticket or something like that 😹😹
Thats why tranz was off
Does anybody see how ace looks like arlong from one peice
You left out jack black being a member
Ace in gorillaz?
Then I was a kid, I used to be PPG fan(still love it)
Now, I like Gorillaz. Heh
I'm like Murdoc
Source?
No not the bully the Leader of the gang green gang
Bros animation is Tranz is so silly and goofy 💀
What’s the point if there’s no voice actor?? especially without the prostitutes and alcohol
Besides russel being a mutant nothing really new
Fun gorillaz fact: 2d is a femboy
No
Who exclusively dates and like women?
@@Cmon2828 femboys can be straight
@@Cmon2828That's unrelated.
Ace is in the Humility video too.
Originally Jamie wanted Daffy Duck to be Murdoc's replacment, but WB said no, so he went with Ace Copular instead.
And Ace laughs at the of the day being more memorable, as a part-member of the band, rather than the girls in their reboot series 🤷
Powerpuff girls was the shit.
