Animaniacs -
Aliens Resurrected

Episode Segment
2022

It’s the third season of Animaniacs and the Aliens are back! (See here if you have no idea what we’re talking about). We teamed up with our good friends at Warner to show the Aliens all the good things humans have done throughout history to try and stop them from turning everyone into nutrient paste. Not a small feat but we had lots of fun doing it!

So many characters

Luckily we didn’t have to draw every single “good“ person in the world, but there were still lots of characters to draw for this 2 minute epic.

From Einstein to Adele, Buddha to Frida Kahlo, it was a fun challenge to keep the characters abstract and silly while still making them recognizable. And of course it’s always great to get a chance to design the Warners in our own way.
