This show is a fantastic harbinger for future interaction between the internet and television. I've followed the Axe Cop web comic for years and to see it brought to life by Nick Offerman, Patton Oswalt and Johnathan Banks is pretty much wish fulfillment. If the plot seems childish to you, that's because it was written by an 8 year old, Malachai Nicolle. His older brother brought Malachai's stories to life and the animation style really syncs up well with the illustration style of Ethan's comic. If you can't handle the pure, unbridled madcap awesome that is Axe Cop, you may have lost the childish part of your soul. I, for one, am ecstatic that this show has made it to network TV and I pray that it goes well enough to prompt other networks or FOX to consider animating more web comics. Could we see Nathan Fillion voicing Dr. McNinja someday? We can only hope.
