***************************

Folks, I edited this book.  It's a top-to-bottom chronicle of the step-by-step development of the X-MEN: TAS show, by the guy who done did it.  Or, at least, he brought together all the people who HELPED him do it.

There's also interview material with Wolverine creator Len Wein, especially notable since Wein's passing earlier this year.

I know that lots of you guys are interested in this kind of stuff.  Believe me, this book is chock-a-block full of insights and interviews.  It lays out the step-by-step processes which brought the show to your living room.

Author Erich Lewald, my temporary email buddy for this project, has done a great job giving YOU the straight poop on how things assembled, shook together, and grew.  I love the little reminiscences about struggles with animation companies, the saga of the different cast voices, and the struggle to get stories onto the air when aspects of a story might scare the "Standards" department.

Buy the book, and learn while having fun!
