Synopsis:
Joe Martin thinks his world-record 30,000 comics are already funny on paper but the syndicated cartoonist has now turned out a feature-length animated comedy. “Mr. Boffo” follows the life & times of the beloved Earl (Mister) Boffo character – who has appeared in the funny papers for the past 25 years.

Stan Lee, the co-creator of most of Marvel Comics’ major characters including Spiderman, knows a thing or two about using comics and movies to appeal to fans. He thinks Martin’s animation strategy is the wave of the future.

“People want to look at a moving picture, whether it’s live action or animation. Add music and a voice and you’re watching a mini-movie,” Lee said. “I think it’s great.”

The 2000 Guinness Book of Records named Martin the world’s most prolific cartoonist. He produces more than 1,300 comics each year.
