It is fun to see my unauthorized use of cameos fully embraced by the highly-talented X-Men '97 team, albeit now with full official clearances. I knew it would make the show more enjoyable, but I couldn't convince others my fanboy instincts were correct. Now they know I was right.

I added that Morph morphing performance in "Courage" because the writing had not taken full advantage of his powers. Morph can be a very formidable character on his own & overwhelm any storyline. This fanboy-director is very pleased to see him being used judiciously in X-Men '97.

Another bucket list achieved. Even though it was just two pages, this is MY first time having pages published inside a Marvel comic book.

Back when I was director over the 2nd season of Fantastic Four, I got the opportunity to direct the very FIRST animated BP episode, "PREY OF THE BLACK PANTHER". My first & only choice was KEITH DAVID as T'Challa. @ImKeithDavid @FantasticFour @Marvel @disneyplus @theblackpanther

I'm late with this posting: First aired, Sept 12, 1983. I was promoted to Director & storyboarded the opening sequence, Show 1 Act 1 of "The M.A.S.S. Device". I got to set the style and fun for the rest of the series. @GIJoeMovie @GIJoeOfficial @Hasbro @YoJoeCom @HasbroPulse

This is my Christmas gift to myself. I haven't received yet, but pre-ordered it when it first became available. Again, no play to display it yet, but I HAD to have at least one. #xmentas #xmenanimatedseries #xmen92 #marvel #DisneyPlus #previouslyonxmen

Trivia: Just for fun, in Part 1 of the Savage Land episodes, I included a cameo of myself & Director Frank Squillace, at our drawing desks, as part of the public in awe of seeing Sauron & Storm fly right by us. I used the same panels in the F4 as the Silver Surfer flew by us.

My first job in Animation was working as a Storyboard Artist at Filmation Studios. Owner Lou Scheimer broke a glass ceiling when he hired me as the first black saturday morning storyboard artist in Hollywood. Good times! #louscheimer #filmation @disneyplus @xmentas

I just found an old polaroid of my days as the first season Director of CAPTAIN PLANET. DIC Animation sent me to NATPE Las Vegas to represent the show to affiliates, along with the CP cosplayer. *sigh* I miss my black hair. #captainplanet #DIC #xmentas #DisneyPlus #xmen
