How Creativity saved the world.
Sunday / 03.02.08 / 10:34AM / Joe / comments: 0

I discovered this in a pamphlet that came with one of Clark's Mega Bloks sets. It really surprised me, because it's a charming, well-designed little comic stuck right after a bunch of adverts for the Mega family of products.

I mean, on a good day, Mega Bloks are a LEGO rip. On a good day, Fun Dough is just reverse-engineered Play-Doh. On a good day, the Rose Art stuff is just cheaper versions of Crayola junk.

And yet here's a nice essay about the importance of creativity. So I scanned it in and chopped it into a vertical format.

Very well done, Mega. I'd buy posters of this.
