The young, interesting Markkiss Steron is doing things beyond his own imagination. Airing in Fall 2012, his new show on Adult Swim, "Tails of Wonder" is expected to feature multiple artists, and personalities he has encountered in his life. Curren$y, A$AP Mob, MGMT, and Ski Beats are just a few who are said to be apart of the amazing cartoon, "I just want everyone apart of it. This is a once in a lifetime thing, ya know?" Drawn, and conceptualize all by Markkiss himself, the show is quite interesting. "Its about these animals who work at a people zoo. Its going to be hilarious." says Markkiss as he smiles.
How did you land this great opportunity?
"Last Comicon, I ran up JG Quinto (creator of The Regular Show) and I shook him up and made him listen to the pitch of my show. From there, he called the head CEO of cartoon network, who later spoke to me, and seemed interested in what I had to say. He was a really dope guy, which honestly took me by surprise. Now, I'm working for them. It's unreal."
Do you have any inspirations as far as your drawings and concepts go?
"I would have to say my mom, and my little sisters. My little sisters are really weird, they eat ketchup and waffles. They have their own language that I want to figure out. It’s a legitimate language. They inspire a lot of things I do. I would also have to say my dad’s work inspires me as well. He did everything."
"Tails of Wonder" premieres Fall 2012. Lookout for it!
