There have been many cartoon characters based upon… uhh, shall we say, doo-doo.

From Spumco’s Nutty, the Friendly Dump to South Park’s Mr. Hankey, and not forgetting doodie.com, Burgerlog and Winnie the Pooh (Winnie is a doo-doo, take my word for it).

Now Manny Galan (who in real life is Director of Animation for Nickelodeon’s on-air promotions) has just created Dookie-Poo, and it’s a real contender for biggest brown lump of the year. (I mean that in a good way). Galan says:

This whole endeavor is just my way of keeping as much control over one of my own creations as possible. And doing something outside of the NICKELODEON system.

His characters are charming and the website is a lot of good clean fun. There’s a CG music video by upstate NY studio Virtual Persuasion, a cool Theatre section filled with small animations and short films, an interactive fun page and of course, a blog. Give it a look.

Before decamping to Nick, Galan was working as the artist for the Knuckles the Echidna comics (a Sonic the Hedgehog spin-off) for the better part of its 33-issue run. But this is just … dag, man!

Manny is quite a talent! I wish him well! He’s also the creator of a Frederator short called Bronk and Bongo

Manny’s stuff is great! I love that so many people at Nickelodeon have awesome side projects.

Many had some comics with this character in an anthology called Combination Platter. Fun all around!

It’s not exactly poo but I still think it’s appropriate here to mention the Ren & Stimpy Christmas flatulence that I’m pretty sure Mr. Hankey was ripping off.
