Where does the “Brawl in the Family” meme come from?
Matthew Taranto started this project by drawing Kirby sketches during classes, sharing them on IGN and GameFAQs forums. The first official publication on his site was June 13, 2008, titled The Showdown, though some sources cite May 1, 2008. The title plays on All in the Family and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The series uses Kirby, King Dedede, and other Nintendo figures, exploiting their traits and Smash rules for visual and textual gags. It ended in 2014 after six years of continuous creation.
