Captain Capitalism Flies Again
Brad Graeber, one of the three Founder/Directors of Austin’s Powerhouse Animation, just released the 2nd installment in his ‘Captain Capitalism’ series.
This Flash-animated episode, titled ‘Piggy Bank Pinko,’ visits a young boy with a vice-grip on his piggy bank. Captain Capitalism, ‘The Cold War’s Hottest Hero,’ intervenes with a hilarious monologue on the joys of spending.
The series is written, drawn and directed by Brad Graeber, and he has a little help from two Flash animators, Jason Williams and Jennifer Borrell Anderson. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the first episode ‘To Bleep or Not To Bleep,’ and then hang tight for ‘Nightmare of a Red Christmas,’ which is due out in December. Then head on over the Captain Capitalism homepage for series news, Brad’s blog and the store.

I enjoyed “To Bleep or Not To Bleep” better but both are good cartoons!
