The New Flintstones Comic Has Hipster Cavemen and Postmodern Angst

Back in the day, I only liked two things about The Flintstones: the wacky animal-powered contraptions that emulated devices like record players and Bam-Bam's super-strength. Some of the former shows up in DC Comics' new reboot of the Hanna-Barbera classic, surrounded by updated existential weirdness.

Is this cool or not? I almost like the idea of it. I kind of have a weird issue with the costumes. I feel like you make the characters more realistic, you need to do a little more with the costumes to match that but I can't fully articultate it. And I don't have the design skills to illustrate a version that would be an improvement.
