Ben 10

Well, I guess it's safe to talk about now that's the press release is out. That's right, the show that has been kicking my ass for the past year is called "BEN 10". Here's the press release...


"A fun and new animated television series scheduled to hit the airwaves of Cartoon Network in spring of next year, Ben 10, will bring adventure and science fiction to the network's programming once it gets underway. Announced just recently, Ben 10 is a new superhero television program for a new generation, and seeks to give its viewers an adolescent hero with some rather unusual abilities, which often translate into some real adult problems. The show's lead character, Ben Tennyson, is kind of your normal ten-year-old boy. But there's one small thing that separates Ben from the rest of the kids his age: with the flick of his wrist, he's able to transform into ten different alien beings with incredible superpowers.

Ben Tennyson will be the focus of the new thirty-minute science fiction and action program on Cartoon Network as he tries to figure out not only how to properly manage his transformation abilities, but Ben also has to figure out how to choose the right transformation and when. Ben 10 begins with Ben discovering a strange little device that at one point, locks itself onto his wrist. The device is called the Omnitrix, and it is with this that Ben goes on a journey into what may just be the most hectic time of his youth. With "the watch," Ben has the ability to morph into bizarre aliens like Heatblast, Upgrade, Grey Matter, Stinkfly, Ghostfreak, Razorjaws, Wildmutt and Diamondhead, each with its own set of special abilities, while still maintaining his 10-year-old personality.

This to which is the problem with Ben's new object, no matter what form Ben takes on, he's still just a kid inside. It's most certainly his dream to be a superhero, and ten superheroes at that, things suddenly a little crazy in Ben 10 as the lead character is suddenly burdened with responsibilities unlike any other.

"What kid doesn't want to be a superhero? And wouldn't being 10-superheroes be 10-times as cool?" Sam Register, Cartoon Network senior vice president of development, commented. "Ben 10 will continue in the tradition that Cartoon Network has established of creating a new generation of superhero shows, like Teen Titans and Justice League Unlimited, for a new generation of kids. It's an undeniably original premise with amazing alien heroes and incredible villains."

This original animated television series is currently being produces at Cartoon Network Studios in Burbank, California. The series is presently scheduled to premiere in the month of May 2006, with all of its superhero goodness. Ben 10, created by Man Of Action (Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau, & Steve Seagle), has been given the greenlight for 26 half-hour episodes.

More on Ben 10: With these powers, he can play the part of a superhero, righting wrongs, saving the world and getting into some old-fashioned kid-style trouble. Ben and the Omnitrix catch the attention of an intergalactic bad guy named Vilgax who will stop at nothing to get the kind of power that Ben has managed to acquire.

When he's not tangling with Vilgax's cronies or other earthbound villains, Ben is traveling the country in his Grandpa Max's RV. Grandpa Max is a good-humored, open-minded and unsuspecting mentor who wants to put a little more excitement into his grandson's life by taking him on a cross-country summer vacation. Ben's cousin Gwen, who is smart, levelheaded and not exactly thrilled to be along for the ride, joins Ben and Grandpa on their road trip. Still, as the voice of reason, she's invaluable in times of chaos, which is pretty much all the time.

Ben's main challenges are finding the best way to harness his power and making good decisions about when to summon his inner superheroes. It's a good thing that his worldly and wise grandfather and shrewd cousin Gwen are there to keep him in check – and bail him out of trouble when he needs it."

What it doesn't mention is that all the major design work is mine. I'll be credited as "Art Director". And it's a good step in the right direction for my world domination plan to be implemented in 2006, BWHAHAHAHA!!!!!

This post has been removed by a blog administrator.WHAT THE FUCK!?! I got SPAMMED on my comments board? Well I looked up these guys on the internet and found out they're controlled by NAZIS!!! That's right, honest to god nazis from the days of HITLER! They also have life time memberships to N.A.M.B.L.A! You know, the National Assoc. of MAN BOY LOVE. That's right. Plus, I hear they drink kitten blood for breakfast every morning with a side of stem cell embryos, mixed in a gravy of MAN goo. Yes "EGTY" will NOT be getting my business today. Mainly because trees kick ass...TREE MURDERERS!!!Hey Satanic Swineherder!

I found this on the web it reminds me of your cardboard art, check it out!

Squeal!
JHey Dave,

I e-mailed you some months back about making Ben 10 headwear and such. Welp, I got laid off from that gig so no more Warner Bros. for me. But Ben 10 sounds kick-ass, I'll keep checking back for more updates.

And now that I'll a full-time leech on society maybe I'll do some cardboard art.Sounds cool, I will be watching for it:)Get over yourself.
You were working with other people.
Show some respect.LordGodPotentiate...

Wathing first episode of Ben 10 with my 12 year old son now. After just the first 10 minutes.....freakin' AWESOME!

You've got a hit on your hands!

I know...everyone says it...had a similar idea (Chrysalis - http://www.FANtasticExclusive.com).

Because of who you are, yours is better.

Keep up the GREAT work! I'll keep pickin' it up!

By the way, I own a fairly reknowned toy design company, so if you're lookin'.....

CORNBOYGreat designs... no question! You rocked it... They just feel wasted.
No one tired of the "kid with secret super-powers" theme yet? Characters were way too dumned down and "sub-urbanized" just for acceptance in the kid market. The show got annoying real fast, just hearing the kid talk and witnessing characters interact with each other. Can't watch it past the heavy handed yet cool intro unless the sound is off.
it will be a hit show though...Ben 1O
does not look
like your art Mr.Johnson...Why?I read over your blog, and i found it inquisitive, you may find My Blog interesting. My blog is just about my day to day life, as a park ranger. So please Click Here To Read My BlogThis post has been removed by a blog administrator.what is grampa maxs real job what did he realy do.This post has been removed by a blog administrator.Who else did you work with on
the Ben10 show Mr.Johnson?===================================
Ooh sweet. I bet the potentate did that messed-up array of satellite equipment atop Grandpa Max's Shazam! style RV. And why? For the prop goodness of it all.
Yes, it'll be a sleeper hit show and in 23 years someone will make a made for TV movie of it which will make some fans ecstatic and some want to puke.
===================================My 5 year old Chase would eat,sleep and wear Ben 10. That is all he talks about.
Can't wait for the toy market to catch up.

Chase's Momdo you know what the little frog alien is called?
Dakota Yost, big-ass fan of Ben 10do you know what the frog form is called?

Dakota Yost, big time fan of Ben 10what's the frog form called, if anyone knows?what's the frog thing on ben ten called?ignore other posts. the computer was confusing me......by "frog thing" you mean Grey Matter, one of Ben's alien forms. YeS?Its the best Tv show ever!
