I wondered where this was. This could potentially be really good.

A series where Oh Great! isn't involved with the writing? This may actually turn out to be comprehensible!

Some might have issue with this, but oh well. Personally Oh Great is like the male version of CLAMP. Both come up with great ideas, and can kind of steer the ship for a little while, but then they crash the boat killing everyone on board. They should both just pitch ideas and let someone else flesh out and write the story because once they start throwing in some of the stuff they do the stories become awful. At least CLAMPs work are generally redeemed as anime because the directors can make some tweaks (Angelic Layer and CCS comes to mind) but even then we still get chobits and X.

With Maijo Otaro writing, absolutely not! But you probably won't mind. Maijo's a surrealist, and his novels flit from mad idea to made idea until he runs out of ideas, at which point they end. He's a good match for Oh! Great, and I'm very excited about this project, but don't expect it to MEAN anything.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

It can't get any worse than President Omaha. Anyway, this will be good no matter what since Oh!Great will focus on what he is so awesome at: drawing.
