Having been given permission by the author, Yatt Zach, I'd like to share with you all an article and interview written by him about Marc Handler and how he became involved with the 2003 adaptation of Astro Boy, both in the original production and in the English-dubbed version.

The article and interview are pretty long, so I won't post the whole article in this post. I have, however, quoted the first two paragraphs since you might recognize the name of the person who contributed to this. You can read the whole article and interview on Yatt Zach's blog in the link below:

Written by Yatt “Uno10″ Zach, with contributions by Fauna. Interview conducted from October 14th, 2014 to April 28th, 2015.

Great interview. Kinda feel bad for Marc. He seemed to know waht he was doing. Too bad he couldn't have been more in charge of this. Probably would've gotten a better dub.
I vote we have an uprising and make Sony give the rights to Funimation.
