We were a scottie. 02:24.416 --> 02:26.017 [SPEAKER_04]: So yes, we're, we're to this start. 02:26.057 --> 02:29.818 [SPEAKER_04]: What was like the initial germ of the idea that how did it start to come together? 02:30.018 --> 02:35.800 [SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, this was an idea that was rattle over and over on inside my head for a good 30 years. 02:36.220 --> 02:39.381 [SPEAKER_03]: That I could not nail. 02:39.761 --> 02:41.082 [SPEAKER_03]: There was something about it. 02:41.915 --> 02:43.896 [SPEAKER_03]: I would get all excited about it. 02:43.976 --> 02:45.417 [SPEAKER_03]: I would spat to work it up. 02:45.877 --> 02:47.338 [SPEAKER_03]: I would meet with artists. 02:47.378 --> 02:49.479 [SPEAKER_03]: I would talk about it as I get them excited. 02:49.879 --> 02:54.141 [SPEAKER_03]: But for some bizarre reason, it never jell. 02:55.282 --> 03:04.006 [SPEAKER_03]: And it killed me because I thought the title alone was like the greatest title ever, which might mean you all did best. 03:04.026 --> 03:07.128 [SPEAKER_03]: That's the greatest title I've ever heard. 03:13.199 --> 03:16.661 [SPEAKER_03]: freaky reason, I could never nail what I wanted it to be. 03:16.681 --> 03:28.109 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, it was much more serious originally, much darker, much more horrific, and some incarnations, and then it became more like funny and horrific. 03:28.549 --> 03:29.970 [SPEAKER_03]: It just didn't work. 03:30.610 --> 03:37.535 [SPEAKER_03]: And then I don't even know, I think it was, when Janine got involved is when things seemed to kind of click. 03:37.735 --> 03:42.038 [SPEAKER_03]: There was something about her involvement that caused it to kind of fall into place. 03:42.998 --> 03:55.387 [SPEAKER_03]: and what it what it was was I think at the time I had been talking about wanting to do the Herculoids and nobody had the license and nobody wanted to get the license. 03:55.867 --> 04:03.172 [SPEAKER_03]: So I was like, you know what, I wonder if I did this kind of like a crazy ass and about barricard tune. 04:04.116 --> 04:15.988 [SPEAKER_03]: If that's the approach, and as soon as we started to talk about it, because she's a big family, Johnny Quest and stuff like that, as soon as we started to talk about it, all the pieces started to fall into place. 04:16.689 --> 04:18.691 [SPEAKER_03]: And then I thought that I contacted Craig. 04:19.111 --> 04:20.693 [SPEAKER_03]: He's a huge 04:23.444 --> 04:26.988 [SPEAKER_03]: and everything started to fall into place even more visually cool. 04:27.329 --> 04:31.273 [SPEAKER_03]: And then we had the we had the pitch within like weeks of that. 04:31.413 --> 04:36.499 [SPEAKER_01]: So we brought it with us to San Diego Comic Con and showed it to Mark Irwin. 04:36.779 --> 04:41.605 [SPEAKER_01]: Mark Irwin is a president of badcapes studios and he was like, 04:42.382 --> 04:43.763 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't care what anybody says. 04:43.803 --> 04:45.244 [SPEAKER_01]: This is the what we're doing this. 04:45.304 --> 04:47.306 [SPEAKER_01]: We're like, that was cool. 04:47.346 --> 04:47.526 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 04:47.966 --> 04:48.807 [SPEAKER_01]: Just like right away. 04:48.827 --> 04:49.488 [SPEAKER_01]: It was instant. 04:49.508 --> 04:49.768 [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. 04:50.168 --> 04:51.529 [SPEAKER_04]: So take a little step back. 04:51.549 --> 04:52.150 [SPEAKER_04]: Sorry, Jeanette. 04:52.170 --> 04:52.970 [SPEAKER_04]: I'm curious. 04:53.030 --> 05:01.337 [SPEAKER_04]: Do you remember was there something that you're like at idea that popped up a specific or was it just your love of Hanna Barbarra that helped shape your better? 05:01.957 --> 05:19.243 [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was probably just my love of Hannah Barber at like I remember like Tom and I were about the same age and I remember we talked about like sitting in our in our pajamas on Saturday mornings with bowl of cereal, watching cartoons and like my favorite was Johnny Quest. 05:19.263 --> 05:22.164 [SPEAKER_01]: For some reason I had no idea why like I was a girl. 05:22.844 --> 05:26.105 [SPEAKER_01]: It was just this fantastical kind of like 05:26.932 --> 05:31.374 [SPEAKER_01]: random story of a little boy, but I just love Johnny Quest for some reason. 05:31.714 --> 05:33.875 [SPEAKER_03]: It didn't look like anything else at the time. 05:34.255 --> 05:36.216 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah, I think that's it. 05:36.516 --> 05:42.178 [SPEAKER_03]: I think that's what Quest had going forward is that it was really different and it played, it wasn't played for laughs. 05:42.927 --> 05:44.628 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's very serious, you know. 05:45.048 --> 05:52.772 [SPEAKER_02]: I think that's funny that you say because I did feel like I was sitting down to watch a Saturday morning cartoon when I read this. 05:52.812 --> 05:53.673 [SPEAKER_02]: I got sucked in. 05:53.993 --> 05:56.234 [SPEAKER_02]: I felt like I was in such great hands. 05:56.634 --> 05:57.735 [SPEAKER_02]: Jeannie and I'll be interested. 05:57.775 --> 06:01.357 [SPEAKER_02]: Like if somebody comes up to you and says, like, I kind of got an idea. 06:01.477 --> 06:02.658 [SPEAKER_02]: I can't get it to work. 06:03.078 --> 06:10.642 [SPEAKER_02]: Like how do you guys then kind of sit down and work on like building it or making it kind of work, as you say. 06:10.962 --> 06:14.386 [SPEAKER_01]: It's, it's usually me who says, I don't know how to make this work. 06:15.628 --> 06:26.921 [SPEAKER_01]: Like I know what I want, it's sometimes I know the beginning and I know the ending, but I can't always like get there and a lot of times and I've done this many times. 06:27.142 --> 06:27.983 [SPEAKER_01]: I'll say to Tom. 06:28.928 --> 06:36.232 [SPEAKER_01]: I know the beginning, I know the end, but I don't know how to get there and he'll go, well, you could not go, no, no, so I'm just struggle with this for a little bit. 06:36.272 --> 06:40.334 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, how am I going to learn if you just keep coming to my rest? 06:41.054 --> 06:48.738 [SPEAKER_01]: But a lot of times I like to struggle with things, just to see if I can figure it out most of the time, I can't be helps me anyway, so it's all good. 06:50.832 --> 07:03.120 [SPEAKER_04]: When you aren't dealing with pastiche of a bunch of different things that do sort of like skimmer off the surface, how do you make sure that you're doing something original versus just, oh, this is Johnny Quest. 07:03.240 --> 07:04.841 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, this is Captain Platte, et cetera. 07:04.861 --> 07:05.101 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 07:05.822 --> 07:06.102 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 07:06.622 --> 07:12.566 [SPEAKER_03]: I know, I know, this is gonna sound really stupid, but I feel it in my gut. 07:13.486 --> 07:19.070 [SPEAKER_03]: It's one of those things where I don't feel, when it doesn't just feel like you're doing the same thing over again. 07:20.122 --> 07:20.662 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel it. 07:20.722 --> 07:22.083 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, oh, this is exciting. 07:22.123 --> 07:23.264 [SPEAKER_03]: This is this is cool. 07:23.324 --> 07:32.990 [SPEAKER_03]: This, yeah, this I get this and it's usually that momentum of feeling excited about the idea and knowing that you're not just doing something that somebody else has already done. 07:43.772 --> 07:48.075 [SPEAKER_03]: too much like 25 other things that either I've done or so many else is done. 07:48.095 --> 07:50.857 [SPEAKER_03]: And so, and it usually the energy usually kind of. 07:52.203 --> 08:13.127 [SPEAKER_02]: That's such an important part because, you know, when I started reading this, you know, I felt so well taken care of, and there were fun twists and turns, like you think, okay, one thing is good, the other one's evil, you know, we're going to have this big show down, but I liked all the kind of like different takes on things. 08:13.427 --> 08:16.828 [SPEAKER_02]: It felt fresh, but also felt familiar, which is 08:19.868 --> 08:24.190 [SPEAKER_02]: Hearing you talk about it, I really do feel like you guys nailed that really well. 08:24.530 --> 08:26.832 [SPEAKER_03]: There was that nostalgia factor, big time. 08:26.912 --> 08:35.176 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, especially since I was so, I was so excited I wanted to do a herkiller's book, which I eventually did end up building. 08:35.196 --> 08:36.977 [SPEAKER_03]: But at that time, I didn't have. 08:37.597 --> 08:40.138 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I hadn't heard nothing about it, so. 08:41.899 --> 08:47.722 [SPEAKER_03]: So, all that energy, that initial excitement about doing a Hercules book, I just kind of converted it and put it into the ate. 08:48.302 --> 08:55.546 [SPEAKER_04]: If you'll bear with me for a tortured metaphor, I think people talk a lot about throwing things at a blender. 08:55.726 --> 08:58.347 [SPEAKER_04]: And I think that's kind of what you do here. 08:58.387 --> 09:04.250 [SPEAKER_04]: The thing that gets ignored a little bit when you use that is, yes, you do have those individual pieces, whether like fruit. 09:04.390 --> 09:10.313 [SPEAKER_04]: and Peter butter and chocolate or whatever, and they exist, but the thing that it ultimately blended is a new thing. 09:10.413 --> 09:20.337 [SPEAKER_04]: It does feel new because you do get to a critical mass in terms of those elements where you're coming at them in different ways, seeing them together when they're not normally together, that changes it as well. 09:20.777 --> 09:21.617 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, definitely. 09:21.637 --> 09:23.658 [SPEAKER_04]: I always, my metaphor is the cauldron. 09:24.259 --> 09:27.440 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, throw everything into, to make a great, big soup. 09:28.678 --> 09:30.419 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, or a jumbo life. 09:30.459 --> 09:33.601 [SPEAKER_04]: If you are just more of a thing, yeah, it's a little stupid. 09:33.701 --> 09:35.782 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, let's talk about the a specific character's then. 09:35.802 --> 09:40.605 [SPEAKER_04]: So we got our main character, who's this young kid who gets embroiled in the middle of everything. 09:40.725 --> 09:42.846 [SPEAKER_04]: What was, what was important about him? 09:42.886 --> 09:52.932 [SPEAKER_04]: Because obviously you are writing a all-ages graphic novel here, so at least a part of the concert has to be, oh, I'm thinking about the reader and how much they can see themselves on the page. 09:54.277 --> 09:58.980 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, I feel like having taught, it was a teacher for about 15 years. 09:59.080 --> 10:04.324 [SPEAKER_01]: And I feel like Max is every seventh trader that came through my classroom. 10:05.124 --> 10:08.066 [SPEAKER_01]: Like he just, he feels, he feels real to me. 10:08.106 --> 10:12.009 [SPEAKER_01]: Like my kids are grown and gone, but I don't know. 10:12.089 --> 10:16.412 [SPEAKER_01]: He was just like the quintessential 12-year-olds, 13-12, who's 12-year-old, right? 10:16.432 --> 10:21.135 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he's just every sweet little kid that ever came through my classroom. 10:24.017 --> 10:25.858 [SPEAKER_01]: about all the kids that I remember. 10:26.918 --> 10:31.400 [SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know, like he feels real to me, like he has his own personality. 10:31.900 --> 10:35.522 [SPEAKER_01]: We, I don't know, he just he felt real. 10:35.602 --> 10:38.303 [SPEAKER_01]: He felt like we were just telling a story about a real person. 10:39.881 --> 10:48.925 [SPEAKER_04]: Uh, the other, I mean, there's a lot of different characters, but I feel like even more than Max, maybe the most important character here is the ape because he is a title. 10:49.565 --> 10:56.048 [SPEAKER_04]: Um, he ultimately ends up being like he's a little gorilla, grad kind of, he's a little king Kong, there's some of that in there. 10:56.648 --> 11:02.711 [SPEAKER_04]: Um, what was important in how many iterations did you go through with Craig in order to really get it right? 11:02.731 --> 11:04.872 [SPEAKER_04]: Not just for the writing perspective, but also visually. 11:06.595 --> 11:11.898 [SPEAKER_03]: From the writing, I just wanted him to be a bad ass. 11:12.779 --> 11:15.720 [SPEAKER_03]: I wanted him to be a bad guy, because he is a bad guy. 11:16.081 --> 11:20.623 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, what it comes down to, he take over the world that I had beat if you let him. 11:22.064 --> 11:24.045 [SPEAKER_03]: But he has to kind of play the game. 11:24.505 --> 11:26.567 [SPEAKER_03]: So that was always very important. 11:26.587 --> 11:31.890 [SPEAKER_03]: And I was so glad that a couple of publishers that I'd worked with on a couple of other projects. 11:32.450 --> 11:34.871 [SPEAKER_03]: I remember I had another project called 11:36.926 --> 11:45.649 [SPEAKER_03]: and the French Bulldog character in there was a complete jerk, and he was nasty, and he wanted to take over the world because he felt he could run it better than anybody else. 11:46.189 --> 11:48.650 [SPEAKER_03]: And so many publishers said, we love this. 11:48.670 --> 11:49.530 [SPEAKER_03]: This is so funny. 11:49.550 --> 11:50.550 [SPEAKER_03]: We think it's fantastic. 11:50.750 --> 11:51.791 [SPEAKER_03]: Could you make him nicer? 11:53.211 --> 11:56.392 [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm always like, no, because it's a story about a villain. 11:56.992 --> 11:58.773 [SPEAKER_03]: He is the villain of the piece. 11:58.813 --> 12:00.714 [SPEAKER_03]: He just happens to be the focus of the story. 12:01.094 --> 12:04.535 [SPEAKER_03]: So I had that a lot, and I was so happy when that came. 12:05.515 --> 12:09.897 [SPEAKER_03]: didn't say, oh, yeah, could you make the ape a little nicer, could you make them a little sweeter? 12:09.957 --> 12:15.320 [SPEAKER_03]: And maybe maybe you show us like the grinch, maybe make us hard grow at the end. 12:15.580 --> 12:17.001 [SPEAKER_03]: No, absolutely not. 12:17.261 --> 12:18.161 [SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely not. 12:18.621 --> 12:20.082 [SPEAKER_03]: So we lost actually with French. 12:20.102 --> 12:25.365 [SPEAKER_03]: We actually lost like two or three publishers because we wouldn't do that originally. 12:25.805 --> 12:27.446 [SPEAKER_03]: So I was very happy with the eight. 12:28.166 --> 12:32.068 [SPEAKER_03]: And then there was credit, Craig was just so excited because it was going to be something that 12:32.655 --> 12:35.296 [SPEAKER_03]: was reminiscent of the Hanabab era stuff and everything. 12:35.536 --> 12:37.137 [SPEAKER_03]: So he just added drawing. 12:37.177 --> 12:38.377 [SPEAKER_03]: He nailed it right away. 12:38.838 --> 12:44.360 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I definitely think the the ape has a little bit of a herky Lloyds feel to it in such a good way. 12:44.780 --> 12:50.002 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he he like I think the very first drawing is we got from Craig or like that's it. 12:50.402 --> 12:51.703 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you nailed it. 12:52.924 --> 13:01.150 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, and just to throw out there to give you a big, absolute bit, reading the book, I appreciate the fact that he is a bad guy. 13:01.190 --> 13:13.340 [SPEAKER_04]: The ape all the way through, you know, I, I'm not a kid, but I think as a kid, I would think that was so much cooler to read than like, wow, this ape got a heart and now they're friends. 13:13.880 --> 13:17.263 [SPEAKER_04]: No, he's evil, and that's more fun. 13:17.283 --> 13:19.685 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, way more fun, yes. 13:20.935 --> 13:23.597 [SPEAKER_04]: What were the other elements that were important to capture here again?
