‘BONE UP!’ – An hour with Jackson Publick & Doc Hammer
October 25th, 2011by Austin

On the 14th Friday of October in the year 2011, two unkept jets setters dressed to the nines – still sporting their aviator sunglasses and bowties undone – approached the press bench at New York Comic Con. Their names? Jackson Publick & Doc Hammer of Adult Swim’s The Venture Bros. animated television series that, in 2010, ended it’s fourth season.
Since its 2003 premier, the show has grown to be a fan favorite which includes a sleuth coplayers at conventions, fan art and much more that with its expanded popularity, has many people wondering when the next season will debut and why it’s taking so long. With the shows approval for two more seasons, the writers have explained they’re hard on scripting and developing the arcs of seasons five and six but they’re also considering the pursuit towards screenwriting and directing. The project that is consuming their attention and creative juices? Bone Up!, a fictional feature film that would star Liam Neeson. Here is their explanation of the plot:
I know what you’re probably thinking – this would be amazing to watch. The remainder of our hour long gathering was spent answering questions which included comics, tv shows and musicals.
- When asked whether or not Venture Bros. would ever create a musical one-off episode, a la ‘Once More With Feeling‘, they said “No” immediately then quickly found themselves admitting that they end up making episodes they don’t want to, but do because they work.
- Jackson Publick watches Entourage. Doc Hammer watches America’s Next Top Model.
- After being asked about a Venture Bros. comics, Publick answered that they’re currently “not interested,” due to the time it takes write and produce the show and they’re hesitant to release the property.
And finally, like me, both are college drop-outs.
