Interesting thing I stumbled apon while surfing google for information (which I ended up not finding)Cartoon network will have 20 new episodes of Samurai Jack starting in May. I Copied and now pasting this one: A new, previously unpublished book by Lord of the Rings author J.R.R. Tolkien was discovered by accident in a box at the Bodleian Library in Oxford, England, the News.com.au Web site reported. The yellowing 2,000-page handwritten manuscript contains Tolkien's translation and appraisal of the epic Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf, which is thought to have inspired The Lord of the Rings, the news site reported. Michael Drout, an assistant professor of English at Wheaton College in Norton, Mass., found the Tolkien material by accident in a box of papers while researching Anglo-Saxon scholarship at the Bodleian, the news site reported. Tolkien's translation of Beowulf and his line-by-line interpretation of its meaning will be published next summer.

[On topic] James Venable's music for [b]Samurai Jack[b] has to be some of the most diverse music scoring out there--he's quite good. Quite deserving of a soundtrack album. (Please?)

I agree 100%! Venable's music is very good, I would love to have a compilation of his music (if not an official "jack" release).Rich

I'd love a cd or 2 of Venable's Samurai Jack, official or ah unofficial. Episode to episode is impressive as it is, his quite deverse and ear pleasing scores only highten the audiable experience.And the studio exes must have sh!t their pants when they read anotehr LOTR story was found. Franticaly yelling, "Prequel!!!"
