I was working on the animated X-Men when he passed. Our producer @larrytoons54.bsky.social went to Fox to get an "In Memory Of" credit on the episode that was delivering next. We also worked him into the audience of the Mojo Vision episode.
that is so awesome. Thank you for sharing that.
he also was a virulent "anti-commie" on the other side :-(
To his credit, sort of, the anti-commie propaganda machine of his day had everyone convinced of that.
I mean.. they also had them convinced that Nazis were bad too, right? They obviously ARE, but I'm sure a ton of people were also just.. supporting whatever their country said was good and vehemently hating whatever they said was bad. In his day that was playing it safe, you know?
Kinda like a director from the old old days getting props now for having a super diverse cast... but, the cast was diverse because they all collectively got paid a quarter of what the white leads got paid EACH.. and were all cast to portray an isolated tribe. The broken clock saying. You know it.
Hey, don’t be talking shit about the man who killed Hitler /j
We could all stand to be a little more like Jack.
