Gotta admit the series was pretty fun, and the opening Theme Song was sooooo Addictive.

Kinda neat to see your work for them.

I miss watching Mighty Mouse. T_T
...
On a side note: Peanut butter does not fix a VCR and and the cassette. xD

i remember this from my childhood :0

Duuude. Mighty Mouse!!!! My pops worked on that show!

Who is your pops? We might've worked together.

Ken Boyer ring a bell?

Why yes! I worked with Ken on Mighty Mouse and Tiny Toons and probably a few other things. Cool!

I picked up this set a few months back.. nice to know about the cover art :)

I see the villain Oilcan Harry in there.

"Her I come to save the day!"

That's Here I come.

Darn typos.

I remember both liking and being scared by this show for some reason. I can't remember why.

Elvis float FTW :P

Was that the series that had the controversial scene where Mighty Mouse sniffs some mashed flowers, but it looks like he is snorting cocaine?

It was, but the controversy probably had more to do with the fact that Ralph Bakshi was in charge of it. After "Fritz the Cat", certain groups just wouldn't let go of their suspicions of him.

I don't think he ever recovered from that fiasco. "Cool World" bombed (I actually appologized to my friend for taking him to see that), and when he appeared on "Ren & Stimpy" all he kept talking about was his loneliness and sore bowel movements. What a fall from the guy who did "Wizards" and [animated/incompleted] "Lord of the Rings", my favorite Bakshi films.

this is so awesome!

I loved that show! Who came up with the line "This stuff is thicker than country muuuuusic!," anyway? Still remember that one.

I don't remember that line, but it sounds like something Tom Minton would've come up with.

I love the way you have Pearl hanging on to the basket!Best DVD cover ever!

Man this show came out before I was even born!... Only by a year, but still!!! I like how they decided Mighty Mouse should be acknowledging you with an off-center stare rather than looking at you dead-on. I suppose that was considered too "manic?" It looks perfectly all right to me though. I prefer these eyes to the final ones.

As a matter of fact, somebody at CBS complained that the dead on stare was "too crazy" and "scary"!

That is so silly. I mean... it... This is a very controlled cover for such a silly, insane little show!

Different opinions for different folks. I'd nominate this 1979-82 version as the best version.

I still can't shake the brilliant episode poking fun at Hanna-Barbera cartoons. It's a double-knit world, baby! *runs down the endless background hallway* Flippin' funny!

This set is now on my wish-list! Congrats on the great cover art

Is this complete with the aforementioned, controversial "flower/cocaine" episode?

Though as a kid I actually perfered the original shorts to this one, or the other series (late 70's-early 80's) that was made before the Bakshi one.

Everyone sing along!

I'm not surprised that you work on this show, MKaz, but I am delighted to find out.

How you guys got away with the episode where Mighty Mouse takes Scrappy on journey in a 'Magic Bus' I'll never know. That was hands down THE creepiest show I've EVER seen! And FUNNY as hell too!

I, personally, am still trying to figure out the scene that had to get cut when a Kentucky family started the whole rumor about him snaffing crack.

Basicly it was him sniffing a handful of red pollen that LOOKED *to stupid people* like some drug, though I've never heard of a red inhalation drug of any kind*that my limited knowledge would be aware of*. But they thought it was cocaine panicked and called the studio on it. Studio blinked, blinked again sighed and just took it out rather than argue with them. And that's all there is to it really.

I see.

typo; sniffing

BLARGH~! It must've been super cool to work with John K and Ralph Bakshi! XD

The cartoon that basically reinvented Saturday morning cartoons. :3

I was too yound to see this show when it was on the air (born in '89), but I heard good things about it. After buying some Bakshi movies, I didn't hesitate to buy this DVD. Totally. Worth. It. I actually enjoyed this more than ANY other John K. animated shows that I've seen in my life (and I've even seen Beany & Cecil).

Wish it could have gone on longer.

Holy Crap.. we've got a legend on fa..

I am Humbled to view this artwork.. I've been watching some episodes through megavideo.. not because i'm poor.. i don't have the right item to buy the dvd naturally.

hmm okay.

Nice job, and glad to meet someone who worked with the show.

Loved your work on it Mike. Still one of my favorite cartoons of any era. Also they had THE BEST theme song EVER! :D

:D I was watching those seasons at work on a projector a few years back :)

DID YOU WORK WITH KRICFALUSI ...?

Yes, I did.

I DO NOT BELIEVE IT ... !!!, what madness, your working side by side with the creator of "Ren & Stimpy", then you were also in the "Mighty Mouse" series of the 80's (that in seriously I would like to see again). I imagine that you were in the realization of that video of the Rolling Stone.

Ugh, my heart fails writing this,YOU WORKED IN SPUMCO!?, What madness, seriously I did not expect it, I also see that you were with your work in "Critters", I miss those independent editorials, is it still published? I have not seen anything from these magazines since 2000 (if I have a Radio Comix from when Jim Hardiman was still drawing).

Anyway, forgive so much emotion, I did not expect this, a pleasure to hear from you, would you have time to see what I do and tell me what you think ?, I do not have much but you could get the idea.

I had cookies at the entrance but they were finished, I did not know that they liked them so much here at Fur Affiinity.

I've had this boxset for ages, and not only didn't I realise you did the cover art, but also didn't realise til just now that you were interviewed in the doco in the special features on the last disc!

So, was it you that threw Ralph Bakshi's dentures in the dumpster?
