We've no shame in admitting it - we loved Powerpuff Girls back in the day.

Our favourite was Buttercup. She didn't take s**t off anyone and we loved her for it.

We also loved the baddies, too. Remember Mojo Jojo? Or Him? Man, Him really freaked us out. A cross-dressing devil with claws for hands. That'd freak anyone out.

The much-loved cult cartoon series debuted all the way back in 1998 and will be returning to TV screens in the year ahead.

Cartoon Network, the original TV channel behind Powerpuff Girls, ordered a new series and is expected on screens in late 2015.

Believe it or not, the show ran all the way up to 2005 and even had a feature-length film too.

Not only that, Christian Bale was a total fan. Seriously. Take a look. 

 

And here's the original for comparison. Good job, Christian Bale. Really nailed that angsty 90's power-punk vibe.
