Code Monkey Save World

[espanolbot]

A comicbook series based on characters from JoCo's songs drawn by artist Takeshi Miyazawa and written by Greg Pak, yes please! Then we can have the makers of Glee steal it and tell him he should be thankful for the exposure! :D Yeah, I'm still bitter about that.



Okey, so we have Code Monkey (obviously), Skullcrusher, the Creepy Doll, the squid from I Crush Everything, the zombie from Re: Your Brains..., the cyborg woman from Better (I think) and Matilde... though I don't know where she's from.

Glee used his original arrangement of Baby Got Back in an episode without permission or even a credit. When the internet revolted, FOX just sent JoCo a letter saying that since it's a cover, they don't need to give him credit, and he should just be grateful for the exposure.

Wow. That's about the textbook definition of "classy" right there. :|

The thing is, he paid MC Hammer for the rights to do his own version, yet they stole his version and sold it without saying it was Coulton's version they were using.

MC Hammer? I thought Sir Mix-a-lot did "Baby Got Back."

Damn it was, sorry, got confused, but the rest is true!
