Back in September we
reported that the [adult swim] program
12 Oz. Mouse was on the way to DVD, with a release planned for around the end of 2007. Now we're almost two month gone in 2008, and fans are wondering where the DVD is.
Here it is, exclusively sold in the [adult swim] online shop. The 2-disc set is labeled as
12 Oz. Mouse - Volume 1 and sells for just $12 plus shipping costs. It begins to go out this Friday on Leap Year Day,
February 29th. It includes 20 episodes, with 2 extra episodes: "Enter the Sandmouse" and "Episode 13". Plus there are extras such as the "You're Scaring Me" Documentary, Behind the Scenes, Promos, Fan Art and Music.
Our thanks to reader "Joseph" for being the first of several to e-mail us about this item. Below is the show description and box art taken from the [adult swim] online store, but we've rotated the art to show you how the package looks "standing up". If you roll your mouse pointer over the picture, though, it will change to the sideways picture shown at the site, so you can see the "Last Supper"-inspired cover in its proper format:
Experience the classic tale of an alcoholic green mouse as it may not have been meant to be seen, but in retrospect is the way it should have been meant to be seen, as a seamless movie. No episode breaks, no credits, no trips to the bathroom, no snacking, no time to stop and digest the overwhelming intensity and intricately woven mystery that is 12 oz Mouse. You should familiarize yourself with the pause button, it's been around for ages.
