Tad

Name: Tad Stones

I work in animation and probably created some of the shows you watched as a kid like Rescue Rangers and Darkwing Duck.  In the last few years I've worked with Mike Mignola on a couple of Hellboy Animated movies and may do some Hellboy short subjects in the near future.  I also supervised the direct to DVD feature, Turok: Son of Stone, one of the bloodiest American features you'll ever see.

I've written a couple of short Hellboy stories for Dark Horse, one of which I illustrated.  I also illustrated a back up story in an issue of The Perhapanauts. Kudos to Josh, Ron, Conor, Gordon and friends for creating such a cool place for us to hang out.

Did Wally Wood draw that or just ink it?  And yes, there was a LOT of story crammed into every panel back then, not a lot of subtlety but a lot of story.

What is a definitive Archie run or TPB?  Is this a good jumping on point?

Whatever Happened to the No-Prize Hunter?

On Oct 12, 2009 11:56 AM

"I would love to see a little more of the No-Prize mentality among readers these days. I'm not asking anyone to unplug his brain; I'm only asking you to make sure you plugged in your heart."  I suddenly feel like I'm reading one of the lost OZ books. No-Prizes were lots of fun.  I'm sure their cancellation was probably more a factor of postage than writer worry that peo...

'Planet Hulk' Hits on DVD February 2, 2010

On Oct 9, 2009 7:10 PM

Planet Hulk is perfect for an animated DVD because it's a simple, high concept idea featuring one of Marvel's most popular characters.  Remember, these things have to be marketed to those who haven't read the original comic or who may not read comics at all.

On Oct 5, 2009 8:47 AM

Really impressive and I enjoyed the looseness of the art.  Did he do this on his Modbook?  Must've to get the lettering and panels like that.  Really sweet.

Next DC Animated Story: 'Crisis on Two Earths'

On Sep 15, 2009 12:02 PM

@BrianBaer: The WB animated films are all supposed to stand on their own, sort of a Silver Age conceit.  That's why the design style changes and the casting varies in each video

The iFanboy Letter Column - 09/11/2009

On Sep 11, 2009 4:00 PM

I can't believe this cut and paste discussion has gone on so long with all of you buying the company line and covering the dirty little secret that we ALL know is going on in the industry.  Ever since the advent of computer word processing, writers have been using electronic means to remove, alter, shift words - sometimes COMPLETE PARAGRAPHS - to reuse language and change meaning.  I...

Note that Diane Nelson did not help the success of the Harry Potter movies by telling J.K. Rowling how to write the books.
