Everything you ever wanted to know about TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES cookies is on a new page of X-Entertainment, a website devoted to cheesy 70s and 80s pop culture and junk food.
At X-Entertainment every nook and cranny of our consumer driven, materialistic society is exposed, cataloged and celebrated. This is what the internet was created for.

Piscasso Pictures in London has created a nifty looking stop-motion pilot based on George Herriman’s KRAZY KAT.
The narration is horrible, but the sets and models are incredibly faithful and the animation is quite good.
As Krazy is a King Features property, I’m hoping Mainframe’s CG Popeye special comes this close in capturing the spirit of Segar’s strip (or the Fleischer cartoons).
But I’m not holding my breath.

Critterbox is selling a unique set of toy figures designed by five of the best alternative cartoonists today: Kaz, Tim Biskup, Tony Millionaire, Dave Cooper and Gary Baseman.
Baseman & Biskup are also well known for their animation work - but all five individual artists consistently do delightful commercial art work (and personal pieces) inspired by classic cartoons.
So dump those Lord Of The Rings action figures & chotskes… These are the coolest desk accessories I’ve seen!

Congratulations to our colleague Jim Hill for making an appearence on the front page, above the fold, in today’s Wall Street Journal - in a story about “Obsessive Fans Join Disney’s Proxy Fight”

“Consider it pitched,” Mr. Disney responded. But the idea later was nixed.Read the article here.
