"It’s easy to dismiss the technical prowess of Nagel’s work, as his style is easily replicated digitally nowadays. But keep in mind that all of his images were actual paintings, typically acrylic paint on stretched canvas. In total, he left behind a body of work of more than 400 paintings. But more importantly, he created a style that truly defined, and influenced an entire decade. The ‘Nagel’ style is now synonymous with the look of the ’80’s’.
Patrick Nagel died tragically at the young age of 38. During a 15-minute celebrity “Aeroba-thon” to raise funds for the American Heart Association, he suffered a fatal heart attack due to a congenital heart defect that went un-identified his entire life."
Moonbeam city. Had a really good cast of voice artists. Including Patrick Warburton for one episode. And Adam West for I think two episodes? It was one of the last series he did before he died. Rob lowe, Will Forte, Elizabeth Banks, and Kate Mara round out much of the regular voice acting cast.
It was also the show where I discovered one of my current favorite bands. Nightclub. They did the entire soundtrack for The show. The opening theme is an instrumental version of the song another one.
