Gamblers, Brigades, and a Cold Slither: A Conversation with Animation Writer Michael Charles Hill

This week on Excelsior Journeys, host & producer George Sirois sits down with writer Michael Charles Hill, and the two of them look back at his time as a writer/producer with Sunbow Productions. While there, Michael was responsible for some of the most memorable episodes of 1980s animation. Michael gave us the unforgettable riff of "Cold Slither" on G.I.Joe, the origin story of the Combaticons on TransFormers, Part 2 of the Season 3 episode "The Return of Optimus Prime," and so much more.
