Movies, cartoons, and magic with Jerry Williams

Hello, Andy Kirk here...I got to interview my friend Jerry Williams for world wide alien promos.  Jerry is telling me about what's going on with him.



What's going on with you right now.

I'm working on Astro Space Hero season 8 and Space Bro season 2.  I'm also trying to get back into horror.



Most folks don't realize my book SAUCER Sex magician is connected to you films.

 Saucer sex magician by Andy Kirk


It's an awesome connection to the Cthulhu monster of my film universe Trouser Snake.  Although I am still a DC comic fan...My films have an interconnected quality like the Marvel comic books of the 70's under Jim Shooter's watch... Astro space Hero is connected to this film and that film....this character is connected to this character...so on and so forth.

Speaking of comics, what's this comic strip you're working on?

It's called Jarry's satellite... Definitely influenced by David Lynch's strip the world's angriest dog...The art panels never change but the words do...I came up with a concept an alien satellite looking over some nameless city and the words were done via William Burroughs cut up techniques.   I saw where David Bowie had dabbled with this technique, and wanted to use this for the comic strip.  I cut up a newspaper in one sentence randoms and then threw them up in the air to 'construct' the strip sequence.  I read once where Burroughs said if you fooled around with this technique you would unintentionally cut a hole into the future. Strange magic indeed.  I believe in magic and have been trying to connect my films and writing with some concepts I've heard comic book writers Alan Moore and Grant Morrison have done.

I had toyed with the idea of submitting to a couple of places, but figured I would release it on my blog.  I'm more into self releasing my films and writing anymore.



If people were interested in your stuff...Where would they go.
