Toon Boom teams up with Garfield creator Jim Davis – releases Garfield ‘s Comic Boom software


Toon Boom’s latest foray into the world of comics comes from a collaboration with the world renowned creator of Garfield , Jim Davis. For those of you that don’t know, Garfield is a fat cat with an attitude.

Jim Davis, the creator of the GARFIELD comic strip, says he’s delighted with the new software created by Toon Boom Animation. “Garfield’s Comic Boom encourages creativity and storytelling with easy-to-use drawing and coloring tools, props, and library items prompting kids to produce comic panels, comic strips, and even comic books. Users can also record sound and voice-over, and share the finished project via e-mail, YouTube, Facebook, and mobile. It’s a great piece of software. I would have loved this as a kid!”

Joan Vogelesang, Toon Boom’s President and CEO says, “Garfield’s Comic Boom is a great addition to Toon Boom’s family of fun products. We are very proud to work with Jim Davis on this project and look forward to seeing the entertaining comic books this easy-to-use application will inspire to kids of all ages!”

Toon Boom is also delighted to be able to work with Jim Davis and to have him provide our upcoming cartoonists with some tricks of the trade, you’ll have to buy the software to get those.
