Mighty Mouse

Mighty MouseFilmation Studios 1978

Markus first job writing television.

After handing in his very first “Mighty” script, he was summoned to the office of the studio boss and commanded to bring along a copy of his script. After taking a seat on the business side of a very imposing desk, the honcho told Markus to open the script to page forty-two and look at the offending line in the middle of the page.

When Markus asked what was wrong with the line, he was told, “Mighty would never say that.”
