WILD WEST C.O.W.-BOYS OF MOO MESA is Making a Comeback as an Animated Series and Toy Line

Thanks to The Nacelle Company, we are going to see an action figure and animated series revival of the 1990s animated series, Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa. This is the same company that is currently in the process of reviving Biker Mice from Mars and Robo Force. Ryan Reynolds is helping them with Biker Mice From Mars.

The cartoon series was originally created by comic book artist Ryan Brown and ran for 26 episodes back in 1992. Nacelle has acquired the property and will produce a new animated series along with a new line of action figures. 

This is one of those shows from the 90s that I was familiar with, but I was never really into it. The official description of the story reads: "As the story goes, an irradiated comet struck the late 19th century Western plains creating a miles high mesa shrouded in clouds. Everything trapped on top of the mesa was ‘cow-metized’ by the light from the ‘cow-met’ and ‘evolved’ into a ‘bovipomorphic’ state.”

Inspired by old tales of the Wild West, “this new bovine community developed to the point where they emulated that era's way of life, including the requisite ruffians and corrupt sheriffs. The lawbreakers were too much for the corrupt regulators of Cowtown (namely Mayor Oscar Bulloney and Sheriff Terrorbull) to handle by themselves. Helping them out, whether they wanted it or not, were a group of peacekeepers known as C.O.W.-Boys (the C.O.W. part is short for "Code Of the West"). Led by Marshal Moo Montana, the C.O.W.-Boys also included the Dakota Dude and the Cowlorado Kid. Marshal Moo Montana and his deputies had their hands full with various ruffians and outlaw gangs that plagued the otherwise peaceful town."

Nacelle Founder and CEO, Brian Volk-Weiss said in a statement: "The feeling of speaking to someone who's name I saw on the TV almost every day as a kid, let alone doing a deal with him, is one of the greatest parts of my job. Ryan Brown is a creative genius, and a special man, and we're honored he trusted us with Moo Mesa."

Brown said: "I am extremely lucky and incredibly honored to have the Nacelle Company want to continue the adventures of my Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa. So very excited to see what Brian and his team have in store for the future of Marshal Moo Montana and the C.O.W.-Boys up on Moo Mesa! Whatever it may be, I know the franchise is in expert hands. I can't wait!" 

It should be fun to see how all of these projects from The Nacelle Company turn out! It’s cool that they are reviving these old properties. Only time will tell if there’s an audience out there that will tune in to watch and buy the toys.
