Main Enterprises' Brain Freeze #4 is a 40-page dream come true for cartoon-character connoisseurs, covering a range of images from varying time frames.
For this issue, one will find illustrated salutes by Jacob Dubi; John Lambert; James Simon; Anthony C. Gray; Doug Holverson; Tom Doyle; Buck Oviatt; Michael Anthony Carroll; Doc Boucher; Allen Freeman; Alan Groening; Brad Foster; Kel Crum; Pam Bliss; and Rusty Gilligan, with adoring homages to Underdog; Inch High, Private Eye; Top Cat; Tarzan; Johnny Quest; Pearl Pureheart; Popeye; 8 Man; Tweety Bird; Space Ghost; the Groovie Goolies; Batman; Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Raphael; and many other beloved favorites. (As a significant side note, Groening's multi-page, Hanna-Barbera character-crossover will have readers jumping with utter, nostalgic joy!)
Oh so impressive, indeed, and the issue's collective content creates a fascinating, thematic flow that one won't find in most other publications. That's why Main Enterprises' periodicals are so special and satisfying. Brain Freeze #4 is just another classic case in point. (Brain Freeze #4 also acts as a cool warm-up to Main's upcoming What Ever! #4 animation special.)
