#360video #360interview Liam Sharp has been drawing and writing comics for almost 30 years now. Longer than a lot of his fans have actually been alive. So I had a chance to sit down and talk to him for a little bit while he was inking a piece, and I was pretty amazed to learn that there was still a lot of fear involved in creating these images that he makes. And I wondered to myself, is it really a genuine fear? Is it a fear of playing God? Creating something from nothing? - Dr. Atomic's Nerd Factory

Check out an animation we made waaaaaay back in 1998... If you have a minute please take a look!. This is part of a new animation group some of us are trying to put together to make new animations for kids and hopefully get a new company off the ground and recruit animators. There will be a couple of new animations to come! We're working on our first effort right now! Thanks!
