Jill-O-Lantern, ehh???

Looks like a left over 'Tick' design... nice try.

Now try again.

I saw that concept art and through all my searching the only place I also saw it was on another site, the venture blog, through google images, but attatched to an old story on the Adult Swm upfront when the special episode was first announced.

But no one else seemed to get the art at that time? So, seems odd at least.

Just to clarify: Jill O'Lantern is not a character in the upcoming season of The Venture Bros. When we tested potential new character designers for the show before the start of the season, we gave them a list of a dozen fake character names and descriptions, and their assignment was to design several of them based on that information. The art depicted in that article is from someone's test (I have no idea who)--it is not an actual production design model sheet. Other notable fake villain names on that list: Man-Dune, G. Gordon Lightfoot, Zapf Chancellor, and Mecha-Jack Parsons.

Like Ginger said, it gets no more definitive than that.

Now time to geek out and just say how awesome it is that Jackson visits the fan sites and takes the time to wade in on their discussions as well.

I know there is no way Jackson is still reading 15 comments down but do we have any clarification on A) how long the halloween special is and B) if it counts as one of the 10 episodes of the new season?

Because if history is any indication the answers are 15 minutes and no but there have been a lot of conflicting reports from SDCC.

According to everything I've read and that's been said (from official sources, not second hand from SDCC) it's an 11-minute special episode and it's not part of the ten episodes of the season though it does take place after the season five premiere.

Actually, after watching the panel video, it might be part of the ten episodes and, by extension, 30 minutes? I'll see if I can find out!

I thought the Halloween special was animated by Titmouse (like the Shallow Gravy special) and not animated over seas like all the other episodes.

You just know you're going to bring those fake names into the show somehow because thats how every character ends up :P


(Watch out for a million Jill-o-Lantern cosplays at next Dragon Con though) !!!

The master has spoken, and given his final word to us simple foolish knaves.

All hail the creator!

We love you Jackson!
