By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; January 30, 2016)      Happy Concept Art Day! Okay, this may not actually be an official holiday, but today, we're celebrating with tons of new concept art on the Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Wiki! We've just uploaded this piece, and we'll be uploading tons more throughout the day!      This concept sketch is a preliminary design for the Mob Boss from The Kingfisher  and is graphite and markers on copy paper. You can see that this character's design stayed relatively the same, with his face being the only element that was drastically changed. You can see it in place on the film's page by clicking here . This is part of our aforementioned move to upload all of our photos from our archives to the wiki in order to allow for more fan engagement. If we don't have it all uploaded today, then we should be done by the end of tomorrow at the latest.      In other news, we should know next week whether o

Today, we are sad to announce that, after just one year, the comic series  Out of His Time  has been discontinued. The last comic was posted today and can be read by clicking here . So why did this comic series end? We have a few reasons, as outlined here. We need to get Journey To Siberia  completed before DINO ATTACK: Saga of a Conflict  debuts July 1.

There was a loss for inspiration

By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; January 1, 2016)      Happy New Year! Today we bring you another 'Ask Mark Matthew,' containing 100% new material! Let's get started!

Mark:  The movie will be separated into parts, with releases extending into January. The expected running time will be about 50 minutes.

And also, not trying to be mean, yet this article didn't make that much sense. Mark: For the time being, Michael Whalen is still playing Lance Spears. And if this article didn't make sense to you, that's okay. Most of it is backstage policy changes and
