What can I say, it's pretty cool that in an hour you can throw something down and share in a profound way. I just dropped another ThunderCats pic for fun. Check it out. One thing I'd love to see is a special designation for a search that showcases others Muro drawings. Maybe I'm just inept, but I tried looking and didn't come across much. I'm gonna pump this Muro thing up as I do more how I draw segments and keep playing with this fun program! Thanks again DA for the ride!

can you atleast give suggestions to the ones in charge? like allow another studio to continue the show? make a mini-series like they do for anime OVAs, each episode coming out in their own dates? or something? atleast something to avoid hate from people?

That's the WB's call. They own the license. But believe me when I say they've exhausted every avenue. Remember this is a business and money doesn't just manifest itself. The whole system is very complicated and has many moving parts. When it boils down to it, there are a lot of amazing shows that have had to be curbed and soon enough other amazing shows manifest. It's the nature of the beast. We had a good run. I'm sure somewhere, somehow TCats will find it's way back.

This guy gets my vote for biggest asshole in entertainment media. Some fan gives an honest opinion and he freaks out saying the guy is poking him in the chest or whatever. Seriously, take the criticism, explain your position and act like a man, not a spoiled child. One of the most unprofessional displays of behaviour ever seen:

First, I don't owe you any kind of explanation SweetZombiJesus. Who are you to me? That's rhetorical. Secondly, if you have the capacity to understand the context of the argument you'll see your siding an unsolicited opinion of a misogynistic fanboy. Thirdly, like your imaginary right to wave your finger in my face to express your opinion, I have the ability to respond in the way I see fit. Lastly, while you're playing morality police, go ahead and fill your days with scanning old posts looking for injustice in the world, I'll be having fun making cool shit.

The frustration is no excuse for insulting. You expect too much of a television series, while you have no patience with a long-term plot and you get angry for that reason.

You should calm down, you get unjustly upset with the wrong person.

Dan, I'm really proud and honored that you and your team did an outstanding job on T-Cats. It was a great joy to me personally to see a new version of the show even with it having a short run. I've been a fan of the Thundercats all my adult life. I still watch the original shows every now and then. Thank you for bringing the cats back and renewing my love for my Thundercats. You did Ted Wolf proud. I hope someday you can share with us the conclusion to this story. Also, I hope in the future your able to put a book out on your collective works on the Thundercats. I'd purchase a copy for my collection. Thanks again Dan and God Bless! Your friend in art, Terra Zin. Thundercats Ho!!! :iconthundercatsplz:

Wow, thanks for the kind words!! I'm equally as honored to have fans of the old show's approval of what we could do with our version of TCats. The original did so much for me as an artist and a human being, I wanted to pay it my respects. There was talk at one time about releasing an art book through WB, but that has gone to the wayside. It's sad because I was privy to all of the amazing behind the scenes art that quite frankly would have blown people out of the water. Now, I'm not sure it will ever be seen. While we may never make another episode, I hope that we instilled the spirit into the next group to take the reigns and kick some TCat ass! Thanks again Zin!

Dan

Yes Dan,I agree with you 100%. We can still carry the spirit of the Thundercats with us and pass the stories down to the next generation of Thundercat fans. It's like the passing of the torch. That makes it so real and makes it worth the effort. If I could say anything at this moment,it would be that your work will live on and will inspire the next generation of artists. Dan,you'll go down in Thundercat history as one of the greats. Bravo and well done my friend. Thank you for your years of work and your faith in the T-Cats. You inspired so many people and I'm very honored to have the opportunity to share that with you. I wish you good health and success in your career and I look forward to your next undertaking.
Your friend in art and the Thundercats! Terra Zin
