“Before Anime and Manga were recognized as the hottest form of entertainment coming from Japan and before NASCAR became a household word, Speed Racer launched the American animation fans into a frenzy in the 1960’s with its fast paced race car action and became the first instance where the American public psyche became aware of Japanese Animation,” said Kevin Donovan, president of Planetwide Games. “As we celebrate the beginning of Speed Racer’s 40th Anniversary in America we wanted to help Speed, his pals, and his ultimate driving machine, the Mach 5, come to life through our software media in a new digital dimension and form.”
“Planetwide Games showed me the simplicity of Comic Book Creator’s Drag n’Drop technology and my mind raced at the speed of the Mach 5 and I quickly realized how intuitive and easy it was to use,” said James Rocknowski, executive vice president of Speed Racer Enterprises. “We are thrilled that Planetwide Games is creating the Speed Racer Comic Book Creator to allow fans around the world to interact and create their own Speed Racer supercharged comics.”
