Ordered my copy in December from Amazon and it arrived in yesterday's mail. I haven't gone out to the bookstores to see if it's prominently displayed, so can't say how good the distribution is. I've read it. It's a worthy book on Bakshi that's, as many have said, long overdue.
Ralph was the "Crazy Man" of animation. Yet, no matter what the project he was doing, a visit to the Bakshi studio (no matter which one) was always exciting.
I really admire the guy, and we need more like him.
I've always loved Ralph's sense of design. I enjoyed working for him, and I'm glad that there is finally a book on his animation. He's probably the most influential American animator/director of the last quarter century.

I've got the book and the pictures are amazing- page after page of them. I'll be doing an interview with Ralph at Comic-Con this year.
See ya
