Over the past 17 years, Genndy Tartakovsky's television animation masterpiece, Samurai Jack, has enthralled the entire world, and especially animators from all around the world, with its fine mix of beautifully cinematic if minimally striking and simplistic art shapes and forms, as well as near-silent (as in almost dialogue-free) storytelling. Through the combined talents of a top-notch ensemble of animators, painters, illustrators and voice talents, Genndy's vision for Samurai Jack dispenses with the usually talkative nature of most kid-oriented animated action shows and kept the dialogue to a minimum while allowing the music, sound, and intricate artistry -- along with the action and comedic humor -- speak for themselves.

But beyond being just a very good action show for kids (and later teenagers and adults), and yes, Samurai Jack was inspired by everything from the 1970s television series Kung Fu to Frank Miller's Ronin comics to the 1970s manga series Lone Wolf and Cub, to the films of Akira Kurosawa and Sergio Leone, among other source materials, but Samurai Jack was also a fine masterpiece of animation art for television, playing out in a cinematic kind of way and reflected a silent style of storytelling that also hark back to Sergio Leone's Dollars Trilogy of Spaghetti Westerns starring a young Clint Eastwood as a mysterious Man with No Name (although in A Fistful of Dollars, For A Few Dollars More, and more famously, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly -- the films that made up the Dollars Trilogy -- Clint Eastwood's character is referred to as Joe, Manco, and Blondie, respectively). And like such old westerns and the films of Akira Kurosawa such as Seven Samurai, Samurai Jack often jumped in different aspect ratio formats in eye-catching fashion, and the characters were drawn with zero outlines and blending well into the backgrounds.

But beyond all that, Samurai Jack is also a cult phenomenon especially among animators.

However, Samurai Jack itself have had enjoyed very precious few spin offs into other media or other forms of merchandising, other than the usual fan content and the occasional licensed comic book from IDW or more recently a Samurai Jack board game called Back to the Past. For example, all of you have had neglected to explore possibilities for a lavishly illustrated coffee table art book or two or more for the show Samurai Jack, and not just Season 5 on [adult swim], but the whole series (from the original 4-season, 52-episode run to the aforementioned fifth and final season on adult swim, that is) as well. Since the publication of Adventure Time: The Art of Ooo, you have belatedly published some art books on Regular Show, Steven Universe and even Rick and Morty, among a few others, but not a single one on a beautiful and talented show such as Samurai Jack. 

Samurai Jack really deserves a lavishly illustrated coffee table art of book, whether a single-bound and lavishly illustrated tome on the art and making of the whole series or perhaps a series of multiple volumes on The Art of Samurai Jack from the original 4-season, 52-episode run on Cartoon Network to the fifth and final season on Adult Swim, but there is still no lavishly illustrated coffee table art of book on the show in existence at all.

As the undersigned, we received a constant flood of questions from many fans of the Samurai Jack show itself. And even after the divisively controversial conclusion of the show with the final episode of Season 5 which aired in 2017 after a 13-year hiatus, among the outpouring of questions from loyal Samurai Jack fans were overwhelmingly and unanimously those that ask the question of whether or not Samurai Jack itself would, should, and could have really received a lavishly illustrated coffee table art book treatment, whether as a single-bound big art tome or a multi-volume series of art books. 

Fans have also told us that they feel that by withholding from the marketplace or even neglecting to consider doing a lavishly illustrated Samurai Jack coffee table art of book or perhaps a multi-volume series of such books, all of you are ignoring Genndy Tartakovsky's Samurai Jack for consideration for a lavishly illustrated kind of coffee table art book kind of treatment. If any of you refuse to accept a lavishly illustrated coffee table art of book or lavishly illustrated coffee table art of book series on Samurai Jack for consideration for such a treatment, many fans will instead be forced to choose between churning out fan art and fan fictions and other fan content devoted to the show or searching for Samurai Jack production artwork on eBay or perhaps even certain websites such as colorist Scott Wills' blog: https://animationbgs.blogspot.com/

Everybody who is a Samurai Jack fan have had always wanted to someday buy and own a lavishly illustrated coffee table art book or two or more on the art and making of Genndy Tartakovsky's television animation masterpiece Samurai Jack; the whole entire series in fact from the original four-season, fifty-two episode run on Cartoon Network to the fifth and final season on Adult Swim or beyond. 

And with all that in mind, we can all hope and pray that all of you will reconsider your lack of support of as well as your neglecting of any consideration for the entire series of Samurai Jack to receive a lavishly illustrated coffee table art book kind of treatment (or perhaps even a multi-volume lavishly illustrated coffee table Samurai Jack art book series, for that matter) and even consider publishing such a thing so that the world would, could, and should finally get to buy and own such a lavishly illustrated coffee table art book publication or two or more on The Art of Samurai Jack, and heck, who knows that such a publication would even sell millions or even millions of copies especially for such a lavishly illustrated Samurai Jack coffee table art book publication, and who knows that such a publication will especially even hit the New York Times' Bestseller List or something!

Yes, it has already been 17 years and 18 days after Samurai Jack first aired on Cartoon Network on August 10, 2001, and we all think that Samurai Jack belatedly deserves a lavishly illustrated coffee table art book publication kind of treatment.

Well, don't you?
