The Muppabet is at Comic-Con!
Head over to the ACME Archive Direct booth to be one of the first to grab the Muppabet print. They are at booth #5629 from July 11-15th.
The amazing folks over at ACME Archives have done an awesome job helping to get the Muppabet print created and ready for the public. So go check it out if you happen to be the kind of person who might enjoy having 26 Muppets hanging around on your wall all day long.
Hi ho, Muppabet fans…There is a print of the entire Muppabet in the works. Stay tuned to learn more about it.
Z is for Zoot
Who better to close the Muppabet with than Zoot himself. At the end of each episode of the Muppet Show, the band plays under the closing credits, and it is Zoot who plays the final note of the closing melody. So it is fitting that he is also here now blowing that final note one more time.

Y is for Yorick
Yorick is another guy who goes back to the beginning on “Sam and Friends” with Henson back in the late 50’s. It seems like a lot of characters on that show were either eating something or being eaten BY something. Some gag’s will never stop being funny.

X is for Extremes
Okay, I admit it. Extremes for X is a bit, well extreme. But it is really hard letter to try and find a match for this letter. So when I came across The Extremes I knew we had our “X”. They first appeared in the Jim Henson Hour in ‘89 performing “Neutron Dance” and “Maneater”. That show and the Extremes didn’t make it past 3 and a half months before it was cancelled.

W is for Waldorf and Statler
Always there to offer constructive criticism for those performers on stage at the Muppet theater. For as much as they hate everything they see they still always seem to make it to every show.
If you like this artwork and would like it on your chest…head over to Threadless to buy my Waldorf and Statler shirt design.

V is for Dr. Phil Van Neuter
Dr. Phil is another talented alum from Muppets Tonight. There he hosted “Tales from the Vet” with his monster assistant/brother-in-law Mulch. Funny stuff.
