What the hell?
Was there some obscure, short-lived Rayman comic that was so insignificant that we never even heard of it, or did this guy make a mistake? He was right about the obscure, short-lived TV show...
Wth is Globox doing in that room in the Longest shortcut?
Normally he is just standing at the door doing some of the lamest Jack Sparrow dance moves in world history....
The only comic I can think of was that kiddies' one they published in Disney's Big Time magazine [search on the wiki for "Hands Down!"]. The guys who used to write some old GBA magazines made the same mistake.

What do you guys think?
Hmm. I guess that they meant the Rayman 1 game, where Rayman and everything in this game has cartoon - or comic graphics.

I'm sure that's a mistake from the author of the text, because the only comic I know it is from R2 style and it is called "Hands Down!". I guess the same guy doesn't know Rayman suficiently well...
