I like it. Nice on going story and I'm at Episode 4 and will watch the rest tomorrow. How many people you have working with you on this? Because there is a lot of different voices :)On average lew82 how much time does it take for you to put together a episode?

Hey Darkone - thanks man glad you liked it :) With the pilot are you meaning Caine? We're definitely gonna see way more of Caine throughout the movie, his role is very pivotal.

Hi Lew82You are just getting better and better at this. Well done to you and your cast. A budding anime George Lucas if I ever saw one. Thank you for sharing your work with us! :)
