The Stack: Special Comics on TV (sorta) Edition - NY77 and Slacker Cats

Fri, 10 Aug 2007 18:53:39 EDT

Today we're talking what's on TV in the next few days. VH1's got a rock documentary (Rock Doc) on Saturday night called NY77: The Coolest Year in Hell. There are animations throughout done in old comic book style and it looks pretty cool - and we've got some clips to prove it. Plus, on Monday, Slacker Cats premieres on ABC Family and Casey from A Comicbook Orange got a chance to interview the creators of the cartoon at Comic-Con in San Diego.
