The Mantis-Eye Experiment

Venture Bros. fan and LA Weekly writer Liz Ohanesian has written up an excellent little article entitled Doc Hammer, Jackson Publick and the Cult of 'The Venture Bros.' which goes into Jackson and Doc's interaction with fans of the show, especially at conventions like Comic-Con and Dragon*Con as well as how their personalities can be found all over the series.

During the course of the two interviews we did for this story, it became apparent that Doc and Jackson are, in many ways like their characters, chatty, almost in competitive fashion. Doc is the more talkative of the two, but Jackson is quick with the retort. They oftentimes begin to speak over each other, finishing sentences with sharp observations and quirky references. A flippant comment from Doc about firemen calendars leads to a remark from Jackson about Fahrenheit 451 and so on until the conversation leads to Logan's Run. It's a little like listening to nerdy sort-of-villains Henchmen 21 and 24 banter on the show.

It's a good read, so be sure to check it out.
