Abstract

This article presents a critical analysis and reflective of the influence of the cartoon in the formation of body image of children and discusses the consequences in their adult stage, from a study of six drawings (Popeye, Super Friends, Dungeons and Dragons, He -Man, She-Ra and Thundercats) are highly influential in the 80s and 90s of the twentieth century. It is believed that much of today's adult generation lived his childhood in a period of massive transmission of drawings with characters who extolled the physical strength and beauty hailing a typical stereotype of the catwalks and magazines, which in turn has influenced the strong aesthetic appeal that is now experiencing. For this, we performed a literature search and print media followed by analysis of selected cartoons.
