It is not permissible to watch cartoons that contradict creed or violate manners and ethics. As for drawings that depict supernatural power, there is no harm in them, as long as they do not involve distortion of Sharia facts, such as bringing the dead back to life or knowing the unseen, or if they are a form of magic and sorcery, or if they include a resemblance between the Creator and the created.
