Trying Times
Well, it's been a very busy time. My work at Fox Television Animation has been keeping me on a tight schedule since the new year began. Finally things are letting up a bit.
I've been writing new chapters of several book projects I'm working on, as well as delving into more comic book work- specifically sorting through and readying for publication the (literally) thousands of pages Mike and I produced of various comic book creations of our own. Eventually, we want to re-release these comics, but preparing the art correctly for modern publishing is tough work. For the longest time we didn't really know what the heck we were doing! (Not that we do now either!)
From the completely useless triva files:- Mike and I used to covertly 'publish' issues of a comic magazine called "Zaptoon Tales" using the office photo copiers where Mike worked as our 'printing press'. We then hawked the issues hot off the press on the streets of New York City, and later at the San Diego comic con. Ahh, those were the days.
Mike has been really busy with various gigs. He's also been creating and pitching a cartoon short around town, and his work and effort have paid off once again! He sold a new cartoon to Nickelodeon! A big congrats goes out to Mike- the hardest working guy in the animation business! This represents the 8th or 9th project Mike has sold to major studios over the years, including a few works we both created. Proof positive that true talent doesn't always go un-rewarded in this industry!
Be sure to stop by Milowerx.com and check out more details of Mike's ongoing projects as they develop.

Well I never would have ever created anything if it wasn't for your "We can Do it" attitude that learned while we were in school together.
I never realized we could make our own cartoons. It seemed unattainable to me. Too much work...
Harry said "Of COURSE we can"
And we did.
I never realized we could make our own music. Harry said "Of COURSE" we can.
And we did.
I never realized we could produce our own comics and novels... but Harry?
Well you know...
OF COURSE WE CAN!
And so can you!
This new cartoon for Oh Yeah Cartoons marks my 8th independant cartoon for televion and I owe it all to two people:
Jesus and Harry.
I bet he never thought Harry never thought he'd see his name in the same sentence as the creator of the universe huh?
Wow, well I have to say, Jesus is a pretty hard act to follow!
