At Toon Zone, Dan Slott talks about writing an upcoming episode of the animated Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Heroes featuring a character near and dear to his heart, She-Hulk:

MAA/TZN: A lot of animation writers say their stuff gets changed pretty drastically between script and screen. How much of your original story for “The Cure” made it to the screen?

Slott: The biggest change was the length. If they’d stuck religiously to my final outline, the episode would’ve run… oh… about an hour extra. I’m AMAZED that Chris [Yost] was able to cut it down. All the key beats, favorite bits, and favorite bits of dialogue are in there. Like I said before, I’m very happy with the final version. The only thing I was sad that didn’t make the cut was Squirrel Girl having her squirrels form a human pyramid. Or would that be a “squirrel pyramid”?

Slott also talks a little about Avengers: The Initiative, and keeps teasing his new “Secret Project” at Marvel.
