File this one under "On The Backburner"!
A couple of years ago, Chuck Gammage and myself were enjoying a couple of beers at the Ottawa Animation Festival, and talking about all the great comics of our childhood, and the old Harvey property "Hot Stuff" came up. We both loved it as kids, so we decided to take a crack at pitching it as an animated series to the current copyright owners. I drew up these initial designs, and we pitched it, but the project stalled after that: the owners felt that America wasn't ready for a cartoon about a devil...it could be construed as pitching devil worship to kids, or something like that. Despite the fact it was a successful comic in the 60's. All I can say is "Hell..." The story is ongoing and I will keep you updated.
