Alexa Fox

WHAT DO YOU DO? (Think Twitter Bio)
Alexa Fox likes to think of herself as a writer/creator, but really she’s a cat-herding wrangler who improves any project she touches. Whether it’s finding artists for other publishers, writing additional jokes, or doing a voice-over now and again, Fox gets it done and gets it done with panache. Despite her busy schedule, she always makes time to show new talent the ropes and buck up the industry’s old hands. The Fantastic Ms. Fox is the creator of Danger Gliders and she’s debuting her first animated short in the “My Life as a Monkey” series, season 1, secret episode 0, “Panic of the Apes”.

WHAT DO YOU GOT GOING ON THESE DAYS? (Shameless Plug Time)

My Life as a Monkey, more Danger Gliders coming very soon, and an adult cartoon series short in the works called Crime to Five (that she’s forcing Hassan to help with in the near future).

My Life as a Monkey is a kids’ show about a boy named Reese and his two best friends, Sam and Amy. Reese is like any other kid. Except that he’s a monkey… But he wasn’t always! One day while he was helping his super scientist mom in the lab, there was an accident. Mom tried to fix it but every attempt made things so much worse that when they finally got back to monkey, Reese decided he’d had enough, “Monkey’s fine. Monkey’s good! I’ll just live the rest of my life as a monkey.” And so it began…

While the show focuses mostly on Reese and his classmates, weird things have been known to happen in their town. Is the source Mom? Yes. Yes it is. Why would you even ask? She turned her son into a monkey!
