CNN has posted a feature article looking at Joe Peacock's collection of artwork from the movie Akira, which was on display at this past weekend's Dragon*Con convention and is the basis of the Toonseum's "Art of Akira" exhibition. The article looks at Peacock's long-time love of the movie and the seminal influence it had on animation fans in the United States when it was imported in the late 1980's.
