Cerebus and Shrek - the characters and story share many similarities. Shrek won Best Animated Feature Oscar and is now enjoying it's 20th anniversary...and though mainstream it still had a very bumpy ride. And one or two (if not more) of it's artists have worked on our efforts

In the spirit of Cerebus being "Godfather of Indie" howabout some indie comic animation green 420 news?
Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers has just finished a full season consisting of 8 episodes, but still doesn't have a Distributor/streaming service attached - not to worry there are heavy hitters involved so I'm sure we'll be seeing them soon

If they're smart they'll have our very own Theodore Trout help on season 2

Some might remember we are hoping to do BugHouse cartoon. I believe BugHouse creator Steve Lafler intimated that maybe having the bugs be done realistically in CGI would be cool? In any case here's some way cool new Concept Art in that regard by Brian Payne

BugHouse Graphic Novel reissue is now available again through
Diamond Previews catalog -- MAY211336 F BUGHOUSE GN BOOK 01(MR)

Oliver,

You are so thorough! Finding stuff that didn't even get caught up in my Google Alerts for SDAOR. Thank you!

If we get nominated for an Eisner I will... I will...I dunno, eating shorts sounds pretty terrible.

I would fly up to Canada, kidnap Dave, and make him attend.

Carson if you get nominated and your on your way to kidnap Dave, stop by in Pennsylvania, I'll join your kidnapping. LOL!!
