"THINK PINK!-The DePatie-Freleng Story" is a MUST if you like animation and love the Pink Panther!

THINK PINK!- THE DePATIE-FRELENG STORY is available at last!
The author Mark Arnold has accomplished a wonderful and amazing work of research with it!
It boggles the mind to think of the amount of hours he must've spent reading and classifying material for the book! But the end result is truly worth it! Everything, and I do mean everything you wanted to know about the Pink Panther and the DePatie-Freleng studio, is right here at your fingertips. It is nothing short of incredible! Mr. Arnold deserves all kinds of credit for doing the footwork and research for all of us Pink Panther and Depatie-Freleng enthusiasts! It is a reference book to be cherished and consulted time and time again! The book is chockfull of tidbits and never before revealed pieces of information that every fan will undoubtedly relish for many years to come. If you like The Pink Panther, the Inspector, the Ant and the Aardvark, and all the other DePatie-Freleng cartoons, then this book is a must. If you just simply love animation, more so. The book covers everything from comic books, to theatrical cartoons, feature films, TV specials, merchandising, unrealized projects and inside stories on the people who created the cartoons. Lots of pictures illustrate the extensive oeuvre, and a full filmography and bibliography complete this lavish edition. You'll be glad you got it! Think Pink: The Story of DePatie-Freleng

Most of all, I enjoyed browsing through Mark Arnold's THINK PINK! and finding my name mentioned regarding my 15+ years writing and drawing The Pink Panther comics for the Latin American market!

ALFONS MOLINÉ's NOVARO (El Globo Infinito) - Ediciones Sinsentido 2007

From Madrid, Spain comes this 2007 book narrating the rise and fall of NOVARO Publishing Company, which was Mexico's biggest comic book publishing house during the late 40s and up until the mid 80s when it went bankrupt. Novaro had the printing rights to all of Dell, Gold Key, DC, Marvel and Harvey comics from the U.S. and distributed Spanish versions of all their titles all over Latin America, Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries. I worked there for 13 years doing several projects, including The Pink Panther and Beep Beep, The Road Runner comics, and was proudly mentioned in the text.
