Thanks
James Harvey (Dick Grayson)- First and foremost, above everyone
else I can think of, I have to thank Ian and Zach, better known
as The Flash and Bird Boy. These two guys have suffered through
everyone of my whiney fits, my ideas and suggestions, likes and
dislikes -- all of it. I put these two guys through hell and
they've yet to kick my ass. They could probably take me, too,
but still...I can't thank them enough for that. I couldn't ask
for two more generous, selfless, hard-working friends then these
two buddies right here. I can never thank these guys enough.
Brian and Harley deserve a huge pat on the shoulder for agreeing
to host this site. I put these two through a lot as well. A lot
of fights and disputes, yet they stick with me. Toon Zone has
always been supportive of the site, and Brian and Harley of the
decisions I've made, and I will always be grateful to them for
that. Thanks guys, truly.
This is where it gets tricky, because now I have a lot of
posters and creators to thank. Problem is, there's about a
million of them and there's no way I can thank them all. They've
all been incredibly kind to me.
For every creator I've talked to, for everyone who's given up
time so I could interview them, I thank you from the bottom of
my heart. They all give up time for me, probably more than I
deserve. Just look around the site and you'll find all these
interviews and stuff...it's crazy the amount of times I've
bugged them! All of you are just so kind in return, and I will
always remember that. Special props go out to Bob Kane, Alex
Toth, Bruce Timm, Paul Dini, Mike Parobeck, Dan Slott, Ty
Templeton, Rick Burchett, Min S. Ku and John Delaney who have
major inspirations in my life and my creativity - thanks a lot! I've even gotten to talk to some of them!
I know I'm leaving out a lot of people (I think I may have named
too many, actually), and I apologize. To every creator whom I've
ever talked to emailed, etc, thank you for taking time out of
your day to talk to a complete and proud fanboy. It's surreal to
be talking to creators who years ago I could only dream about
talking to, whose name I see on the TV shows and movies I watch.
Thank you so very much.
And the many fans and posters who visit our site and the forums.
For the guys and gals who have been here since day one...wow. I
can't believe that! Supportive from the first post, thank you
very much for being with this site as it evolved from a single
board into the huge site you see today. Thanks guys! Special
thanks goes out to Jay Allman, Barb Gordon, BrianUK, Salvor, Tim
Two-Face, and especially Nightwing -- who kept this site alive
during it's darkest times. I know there are so many more people
I should thank, or take special notice of, but I simply can't
remember. I would also like to thank the original E. Nygma and
RobinIII - the guys who, unbeknownst to them, laid the ground
work for this site. I know I left out a swarm of people, and I
apologize, but to everyone who comes to this site, voices their
opinion, and sends us emails - thank you very much. This site is
here because of you.
Of course my friends and family need thanks. Without them I
would have fallen apart long ago. They have always supported me
through my decisions, no matter how much they may have
disagreed. Every step of the way my friends and family have been
there, something I will always appreciate.
Ian Moore (The Flash) - God for giving me the talent to make
things look cool. Jim Harvey for this awesome community &
website, for giving me as much creative space as anybody could
ask for and his trusting friendship. Bird Boy for always putting
up with me and all the countless times he’s helped me out with
things, almost always in the .html and .php category. Everybody
who regularly visits this site owes Bird Boy a big thank you.
He’s always working on this website and is always keeping it in
fine tune. And when I mean always, I mean always. My Dark Knight
Adventures crew for creating and maintaining one awesome online
comic book. Especially to James (SJJ) who is always right there
to take over the show when I get too busy be online. Not to
mention all the artwork (and now scripts!) that he churns out on
a constant basis. SilverKnight for her great story telling and
unbeatably awesome colors. Salvor for his killer covers,
enthusiasm and hard work for the project. All of the moderators
who keep our forums in check, too many to list! Toon Zone (Brian
Cruz, Eileen "Harley" Delgadillo, & Colin) for being awesome
website hosts and sticking with us through thick and thin. We
really beat up their bandwidth! Thanks, guys. Barb Gordon,
redDragon, Outlander, etc. for all being such cool buds, even if
we don’t get to talk much anymore. Of course Bruce Timm and Co.
for their cartoons, if it weren’t for those there wouldn’t be a
World’s Finest. To my favorite band Bride (bridepub.com)
for their many years of awesome hard rock and insightful
outlook. Their music always keeps me going when I’m working on
the graphics that you see on this site. Powerade and Coca-Cola
to keep me up late at night when I’m behind on a deadline. And
last but certainly not least, to my Lord and Personal Savior
Jesus Christ for giving us all eternal life if we just believe
in Him.
Zach Demeter (Bird Boy) - Oh so many people to thank....
Jim—he got me into all this, and yet, for some reason, even
after all the scripting, frustration, cursing, yelling,
screaming...I'm still here. I just get a lot of joy out of all
this, especially when I get the job done.
Flash for putting up with me. I can be a whiney SOB at times
(and, for that matter, so can he), so I thank you for that,
Flash—that and you're one heckuva friend. Thirdly, we have
redDragon. Another one of my long-time friends online, you're
always on if I need a question answered, sometime to talk to or
just generally bug/annoy. You truly are one of a kind.
Fourthly (not a word, I know), we have a whole slew of people:
Bleu Unicorn, Borg4of3, Guitar Slayer, Steel, SJJ,
Outlander...the list goes on and on. If you're not listed, it's
probably cause you don't deserve to be. And Steve from TheJawa
for letting me be on his staff, which got started me in all this
mess (and for helping with the initial PHP scripting of this
website!)
Fifthflytly (shush up) there's all of the creators of the Forums
that we've been lucky enough to have with us--from comic writers
to show creators/writers, they've helped make our forum one of
the best DCAU related ones out there. Then, of course, we have
Brian Cruz and Eileen "Harley" Delgadillo for hosting us—we
wouldn't be here without you guys! And, on top of them all (You
ask "what? all? You said Jim was first!". To which I reply "bite
me") I have to give my thanks to the Big Man Himself, my Mom,
Dad, my brother Adam (for being someone to always pal around
with and talk to), and my other siblings as well |
