All I can say is I loves them both! Plus Edna E. Mode was voiced by a guy, so it's kinda like audio drag...sweet!

Off-topic, but did you hear about that giant sinkhole down in that small Texas town? Well, enough about Jenna Bush's wedding...boom sching!

Let me see if we can spot a trend developing...Movies made from comic books, now Broadway roles developed from cartoon characters (not forgetting Annie),hmmmmmmmmmm. Good catch MM.

Uhhhh FYI Edna Mode was a model of Edith Head, the brilliant costume designer...
just a point of information for those raised on 21st Century pop culture

Art imitates life.
Life imitates television.
Theatre imitates animation (recently).
