I recently received my copy of Mark Christiansen's Sid Sirloin and His Friends and what an amazing cartoon storybook!Mark is an animation artist who has worked for most animation studios in Los Angeles and has created his own great crew of animated characters.
The story, design and feel of the book harks back to the retro days of television animation of the late 50's and early 60's. The characters seem like long lost Hanna-Barbera characters who present their show for the kiddies and take time to advertise their cereal sponsor.
Check out Marks' blog for more artwork and ordering info!

I hope we see more adventures starring Sid Sirloin, Presto the Magic Rabbit, Bungle Bengal and The Pachydums: Eeny, Meany & Schmoe!
