Kaplan and Elfont also took great care to flesh out Dan DeCarlo's mostly one-note comic characters and how they would react to a consumerist world In an interview with Buzzfeed News, both directors chimed in on their inspiration; "We thought about what was going on with music at the time, what we wanted to say — TRL was[...]

The early Sabrina stories are fun and whimsical, thanks in part to Dan DeCarlo's art.
