Cartoon Artist Bio
TOONS ON-ICE Hockey is an original sports property created by Cartoon Artist Michael Fischer to show the humerous side of the sport he's loved since childhood. Michael’s cartoon journey began in his hometown of St. Louis Missouri when he was born wearing ice skates and a guitar. In retrospect, Michael started his art career pushing a crayola crayon watching Underdog and Looney Tunes on TV religiously every morning at 6am.
Mike began his love for NHL Hockey in 1968 after his Uncle Gene flipped on a Blues game on television. Michael's passion for hockey was born watching hero's such as Gary Unger and the infamous Plager Brothers. There were more characters in The NHL in the 1970's than in the classic movie Slap Shot.
Nearly two decades later, Mike created TOONS ON-ICE Comics in 1989 inspired by his now then hero Wayne Gretzky and the enormous buzz he had created across the west coast when he joined The Los Angeles Kings. In a matter of time, Hockey Cartoons took over Mike's career and his onslaught of Hockey Cartoon Humor began!
