Dwayne McDuffie at BET
Written by David Price
Wednesday, 16 August 2006
BET on Tuesday announced a deal with Dwayne McDuffie to develop "a new original adult action/adventure animated series."
"I can't say much yet," McDuffie told The Continuum about the project. "It's a brand-new property but it's very much in the spirit of Milestone."
McDuffie will be reunited with Milestone partner Denys Cowan, senior vice president of animation at BET. In addition to the Milestone comics, they also worked together on Kids' WB!'s Static Shock, based on the Milestone character.
"Cowan and McDuffie are the Lennon & McCartney of the black comic book industry," said Reginald Hudlin, president of BET entertainment who also writes Marvel's Black Panther comicbook. "They've produced several of the top animated series on television. We're thrilled to have this 'dynamic duo' come together again to develop a new franchise for BET."
BET also announced an alliance with Film Roman to produce animated films and multi-platform series.

Chris,
Is there a website that includes the results of any of McDuffie's and Cowan's collaborations?
Can you post any of them here? |

LOL @ Chris! ABM, I've posted something in the past but for the life of me, can't remember what or where. But, when in doubt, consult Wikipedia!

and

I have to say, I am very excited about the possibilities of this. I hope BET does not let me down... |

Don't need to see it. I read the book. In about 1959. |
