Do you thrill to the laughs and mayhem of Marvel.com’s signature stop motion animation masterpiece? Eagerly await each action-packed and humor-filled episode? Well, do you at least want to know how they get those action figures mouths to move and do the M.O.D.O.K. voice? This panel will feature Alex Kropinak, director of the show, as well as his fellow producers Jesse Falcon—also the lead voice actor—and Ben Morse, and contributing writer/voice actor Jon Gutierrez. The panel will be moderated by Grace Randolph, host of Marvel's The Watcher video series as well as the hit online movie show Beyond the Trailer.
