Quick Canon Change!

By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co Headquarters; February 22, 2016)      As a bit of a heads-up today, we've tweaked our canon slightly, which is outlined below. The film Shootout!  is now entering the official canon as the ever-elusive "Austrian Incident" that X refers to constantly in Com 50-3: Raid on Central Island . It takes place in the winter of the year 2002 and just features the part of the incident when X turns on 007 and goes berserk in the royal garden, dispatching several security guards and police officers.      If you want to see Shootout!  again or haven't seen it yet, just click here to watch the film. Check back soon for more updates, including the impending release of part 3 of Alpha Team: Mission Deep Jungle , possibly coming March 2016 (along with the rest of the film).

Studio Update: How Time "Flu" By

By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; February 19, 2016)      First, I humbly apologize for that awful pun in the title for today's press release. Second, we feel that now is a good time to take a look at how things have been going for Alpha Team: Mission Deep Jungle , Project U, and other things. Let's get started!      Things have not been going well at the studio as of late. It's flu season here in sunny Southern California, so much of our staff has called in sick recently. Because of this, work on the remaining parts for Alpha Team: Mission Deep Jungle  has lagged behind. Believe it or not, filming is not yet done, but with so many people on staff sick, it's hard to get it done. Fortunately, we're on the last set for the film. This flu also makes it hard to write press releases like this one without making spelling errors. I would consult our editor instead of spellcheck, but he's out sick today. Wait. Is spellcheck on...

Happy Concept Art Day!

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...

Studio Update: "Out of His Time" is Over and Gearing up for new Adventures!

By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; January 16, 2016)      Today, we've got some important news regarding what we're doing this year, so make sure to read through to get the latest news!      After the policy changes made in December went into effect this year, there has been a massive clean-up of the studio's pipeline, including the aforementioned cancellation of Speeder . 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. By ending Out of His Time , this frees up resources and time for the other two comics. The needed canon information on how Ulysses met Dr. Cyber is provided in the seven comic stri...
