Mojave Jack is an impetuous wild jackass. He never lets logic or common sense get in the way. He lives in Jackass Flats, a small refuge in the Mojave Desert, populated with a colorful cast of desert creatures that includes a fugitive lab rabbit, a sarcastic alien from a distant galaxy and Hispanic American legend El Chupacabra. Do you know Jack
-IT IS A QUESTION, RIGHT?

JACK
Jack’s a proud descendant of the donkeys of the Spanish conquistadors who explored and pillaged the American West.When something stirs Jack’s ancestral blood, he has a “Proud Spanish Moment.” accompanied by a Flamenco guitar flourish. “Que bueno!” Jack’s a renaissance ass. He’s a professional cock fighter, a big wave surfer and entrepreneur — he founded the wildly successful Internet startup, Ass Book. His logic often defies logic. Like when he finds a sun bleached cow skull and sets out on a mission to return it to its rightful owner. Jack lives in an abandoned camper, the “Casa De Bueno.” His door is always open to friends, fugitives and random desert creatures. And there’s usually something sizzling on the grill — sometimes random desert creatures. |

HARVEY
s a fugitive lab rabbit who busted out of a testing facility and bears deep psychological and physical scars. To cope with his trauma, he’s embraced Buddhism, mediation and various drugs. However, he has a long list of triggers and he can snap at any time. 
EL CHUPACABRA
is a disgraced Hollywood player and the legendary goat-sucking demon of Mexico, hiding out in Jackass Flats. He’s on the run from the #MeChew movement - an angry mob of celebrity pets that includes Robert Downey Jr.'s llamas, Woody Harrelson’s hemp-munching goat and Lady Gaga’s French bulldogs. Everyone in Jackass Flats is wary of El Chupa except for Jack, who thinks he’s just the misunderstood product of a broken home, social media misinformation and video game violence. 
LANDFILL PHIL
is Jackass Flat’s resident huckster. He’s a nature-hating, conscience-free capitalist, fed up with your freeloading illegals, like Daryl. His corporate headquarters is at Mt. Cyanide, a towering pile of desert detritus. Phil always has a hustle — he runs a fixed poker game a the Watering Hole, hawks moon rocks autographed by JFK and sells “luxury doomsday timeshares” in an abandoned mine shaft that’s a repository for spent nuclear fission rods. Phil buys up land and bulldozes it just for fun. His master plan is to make Jackass Flats the next Las Vegas. 
GRAMPS is a 103 year old desert tortoise who lived near a nuclear test site in the 1940s and still glows in the dark. He’s Jackass Flat’s resident geezer, often doling out outdated wisdom, e.g., “always keep a nickel in your shoe in case you need to call home.”
He dismisses creature comforts like shade or indoor plumbing as “getting all fancy.” Whenever Gramps sees a roadkill, he yells, “Walk it off, SnowFlake!” |
JULIANNA is a fiery Latina javelina (wild pig) and the former star of a popular telenovela “Pinche Putas.” She’s the diva of Jackass Flats and the smartest of the bunch. She has a soft spot for Jack. He reminds her of Guillermo, her late donkey co-star from her renowned Tijuana nightclub act. A born entrepreneur, Julianna turned the local watering hole into “The Watering Hole,” a cantina where the Jackass Flats gang gathers to quench their thirst, shoot the breeze and enjoy a salty nut cup. 
TAMI
is a high-energy Trapdoor Tarantula who wants to be everybody’s bestie. Only one tiny problem: she’s a big, hairy spider who scares the shit out of everybody when she suddenly pops out of trapdoors. Tami longs for a meaningful relationship, but her “mate and kill” instinct keeps getting in the way. Her cavernous walk-in closet is bursting with shoes (4 pairs per style) and the headless bodies of her previous first dates. It’s a 24/7 party in her swinging, subterranean pad where we use Public Domain footage to show: a swinging 1960’s London party, a Brazilian Carnival parade, a cowboy hoedown and a monkey scrubbing a cat in the sink. 
DARYL
is an illegal alien, literally. S/he is non-binary with the tendency to excrete gender fluid when excited. They’ve been stranded on Earth since missing the mothership home because they was on a heater at the craps table in Las Vegas. Daryl’s attempts to fit in are at odds with their acerbic tongue and impatience with the lack of intelligent life in Jack Ass Flats. They frequently tells their cohorts to “kiss my skinny green ass.” 
VIC the vulture is Phil’s enforcer. Just a stare from him gets deadbeats to pay up, even if they don’t owe Phil anything.
Phil uses Vic’s skills as a scavenger for his black market transplant organ business. Vic is a harbinger of impending doom. He always shows up just before something really bad happens. |
OUR SETTING
Jackass Flats is a desert pueblo surrounded by buttes, mountains and arroyos a word that always sparks a “proud Spanish moment” for Jack.
Even though it’s a remote wilderness, man’s “footprints” are everywhere: a psychedelic school bus with hippies who got lost on their way to Woodstock, mob stool pigeons in shallow graves, the smoldering shell of
a meth lab…
Thanks to the magic of animation our story lines are unbound by location and production costs. Our only limitation will be a sudden attack of maturity among
the writers and animators.
