The Heart Commandos

The Heart Commandos is a 2021 fancomic series written and illustrated by Italian artist John Di Micco, who goes by his username, Collaterale1. The series is heavily inspired by PowerPuff Girls Doujinshi in terms of crossover aspects and original characters, though this one goes even further by including more obscure stuff no one ever heard of, as well as recent ones that came out of 2010s and 2020s. The story centers around the apply named group led by Talia from LoliRock, Melony and Tari from SMG4, Tecna from Winx Club, Confiance and Pulcinella from Totò Sapore and Loona from Helluva Boss, as they go on multiple adventures, rescuing and protecting ancient artifacts, uncover mysteries and stop crime from villains.
==Plot==
The series takes place in Middle of Nowhere, a fictional town located in Texas, United States, and was the main setting of Cartoon Network's Courage the Corwardly Dog, as well as John Di Micco's earlier work, 2011's The John Show. Although the events of the latter did happen in this series, the creator declares it as its own universe seperate from his earlier work. In the former, it is known for weird happenings that surrounds the town, especially the Bagge family, the most constant victim of it.
The story itself starts with our protagonist, Talia, a humanoid alien originated from the planet Ephedia and a former member of the popular idol group, LoliRock. She is now attending the Texas University, where she meets fellow students. The first was Melony, a sleepy, melon-inspired girl with a terrifying Fierce Deity form, the second was Tari, who is Melony's close friend and cyborg girl with a tragic past, the third is Tecna, a humanoid fairy from the Zenith realm and previous member of the Winx Club, now a teacher at the university, and the fourth is Confiance, the only daughter of a popular French chef. Two other people that joined the group after its founding were Pulcinella, Confiance's friend and former theatre actor (who becomes their official mascot), and Loona, a hellhound former receptionist at I.M.P. Season 2 introduces Rebecca, a short cyberpunk girl who was once a member of Ebenezer De Rosa's Agents of the Rose. She fights using both a combination of weapon arsenal and a pair of red and blue colored cyberarms. She permanently joins the group following the end of the season.
==Issues ==
The comic has a manga-style design with 3 issues (or episodes as there called here) per volume. Currently, there are 30 volumes produced monthly. Three special volumes were also produced in tandem with the main ones.

==Trivia==
*The earliest origin of The Heart Commandos can be traced back to early-to-mid 2013, and it was originally meant to feature a different cast that was set to appear in a scrapped The John Show episode. The only remnant of its original concept was Pulcinella, who was already established in "Race with the Green Biker Dude" before. While a number of members remain the same, the cast were:
**Doug from the apply-named Nickelodeon and Disney show.
**Homer Simpson
**Ricardo from Adventure Time
**The Tyrogue boss from Pokebob1's Stupid Pokémons, who already appeared in "Race with the Green Biker Dude" alongide his lackies.
**Slenderman
**and Princess Peach, who was meant to be the leader, and she is ironically, the only female member of the group.
