Milt Appleday was the man behind some of the most popular cartoons ever drawn. But Milt knew he wouldn't live forever, so before the cartoonist died he made arrangements to have his brain put on ice. Twelve year-old Jimmy Roberts was one of the deceased animator's biggest fans, and one day while visiting Milt Appleday's Gollyworld he is sadly flattened by a runaway trolley. The time has finally come to install Milt's brain in a new host body, and what better candidate than a young boy who doesn't need his own grey matter anymore? Now, as Jimmy wakes up to discover a rich world of animated characters that only he can see, everyday life suddenly becomes a bit more interesting. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
