I Like Big Bots, and I Can Not Lie...


I think it's safe to say we all share a love of giant robots here, and although Megas has been off the air for a number of years, I bring you a message of hope - from the future: the robots shall rise again...and they will be giant...

No, Megas ain't coming back - at least not anytime soon. (Although I hear CN's ratings are slipping to the point where they are about to fall below Boomerang's numbers, which is just astounding.)

I'm talking about new horizons - live action and graphic novel-type horizons. Aspects of the entertainment-industrial complex that we have yet to defile with our madness.

Against all odds, and Hollywood's current remake-fervor-trend, my pals and I sold a two hour pilot for a cable series, that if all goes well, may just blow minds. And in the same day, a very cool publisher decided to take a chance on another original pitch for a 90 page comic.

And both have giant F-in robots wrecking crap...

Megas was just the tip of the chaos-iceberg...

Anime Expo


For those of you checking out this year's Anime Expo, looks like a few of my fellow creators/anime dork pals and I will be speaking on a panel or two. Will post more info as soon as I have it. Until then, start building your Megas cosplay gear...

The Examination of Megas


A recent Examiner article breaks down Megas. Not bad - it make us look kinda smart, as if we knew what we were doing...

And the above image has nothing to do with Megas - I'd just love to see Captain Harlock (yes Harlock) take on an Imperial fleet.

Megas Vs. No More Heroes...


I loves me some Destructoid, and apparently they loves them some Megas. Read on for the awesome rant.

Megas Makes Another List



Tomopop.com nerds out about Megas in a recent article/list - "While it's a canceled show from an American network, there is no reason as to why Kaiyodo can't make my dreams come true make a Megas Revoltech. The do-all mecha has only seen two releases, an extremely limited action figure only offered on Cartoon Network's online shop and a statue from DC Direct. The main reason I'd like to see a Megas XLR Revoltech is that it truly embodies the super robot spirit."

Super robot spirit...I like that.

Megas Yule-time Roundup...


A few year-end updates...

Online - Megas is now available on iTunes, Zune, Xbox 360, and Roadrunner Online, and has been doing surprisingly well for a show that's been dead for six years now. Unfortunately, according to the emails I've been getting, our fans overseas can't access these outlets yet.

DVDs - No official word, but Cartoon Network has started releasing "Hall of Fame" DVD box sets, starting with "Johnny Bravo," Season One. Can Megas be that far behind?

TV - Due to a recent decline in viewership, Cartoon Network has begun airing older "in-house" series such as "Courage the Cowardly Dog" to a huge ratings bump. May be time to dust off the Big Blue Bot...

News - Toonzone names Megas as one of the Top Five Cartoon Network Originals. Nice.

That's it for 2009 - special thanks to Sean Raymond for the awesome art and big-ups to everyone for your emails and pics.

Happy Holidays and here's to a kick-ass 2010!
