Webb Jackson Back on the Case
R. Don Smith, one of the three artists who contribute to the blog 
known as The Pencil Haus, recently posted a link to ‘Killed to Death!’ It’s a 12-minute Flash animated film starring Webb Jackson, a smooth-talking private eye. It’s the creation of Frank Gabriel, who is one of the founders of Powerhouse Animation in Austin, Texas.
Animation buffs will enjoy the cemetery sequence, where the greats all get a cameo. My personal favorite was Maurice Noble’s tombstone.
I believe this is the second Webb Jackson film, 
the first being ‘Webb Jackson: A Hardboiled Dick Adventure.’ I can’t seem to locate that one, so if anyone has the link, please pass it on.
Again, thanks to R. Don Smith for his post - check out Don’s work, as he’s a pretty damn fine animator himself.
And this is my first double thanks - as Jared Chapman pointed me to The Pencil Haus. Odd are you’ve already been there today, but if not, have a gander at Drawn! - the hugely popular blog Jared contributes to.
And to all those in the US - Happy Thanksgiving!
