Steve Purcell has control over his "Sam & Max" characters again

LORD please let this mean he'll begin work on another game, or another Sam & Max comic.

Also, he's currently working at Pixar. Imagine that.

Regarding the recent kerfuffle over a new Sam & Max title in development at LucasArts but subsequently cancelled, Purcell is relatively sanguine: "While at Pixar I was consulting on Sam & Max 2 after hours. I got word that it was cancelled from the team but the subsequent fan backlash was an unexpected side effect. Thirty thousand people signed the online petition protesting the decision. I had no idea there had been that level of anticipation for the game."
