Animation blog CartoonBrew points to an article on USA Today that reveals plans in store for the 69-year old cartoon character Bazooka Joe. Ex-Disney CEO Micheal Eisner explains his interest in creating a new franchise based on the bubblegum kid, and speaks of creating a theatrical film, television show, internet site, and publishing company centering on Joe. “Bazooka Joe could be the next big hero,” says Eisner, hoping that the character will be as big a hit as other classic comic characters, like Spider-Man and the X-Men, have been lately.
