Marvel Custom Solutions Joins Forces With ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home
Edition This Sunday!
This Sunday at 8/7c, Marvel Custom Solutions joins the heroes of ABC's
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition for the most marvel-ous home renovation
of the season! Meet Patrick Sharrock, a young boy with a rare disability
that he overcomes daily with a super heroic mix of humor, perseverance,
and a positive attitude.
Marvel Entertainment and Earth's Mightiest Designers-Ty Pennington,
Xzibit, Ed Sanders, Eduardo Xol, and Leigh Anne Tuohy-pay homage to the
hero in Patrick as his new home school classroom is designed around his
very own super hero alter ego! Plus, don't miss all new art from Marvel
artist Todd Nauck illustrating the design team's heroic journey to help
a family who inspires us all.
"With his shining heart and unbreakable spirit, Patrick is an
inspiration to all of us here at Marvel," said Marvel editor Bill
Rosemann. "It was an honor for everyone involved to do our small part to
help bring his dreams to life. Captain America, Thor, and the rest of
our mighty crime-fighters salute Patrick and the entire Sharrock family,
who are our true heroes."
Brady Connell, Executive Producer, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,
explained, "From the second we told them about Patrick Sharrock, Marvel
Custom Solutions was committed to creating a comic book framework for
this unique episode. Their top artists transformed some of our
traditional scenes, and made the show feel like a comic book come to
life. Patrick and his father, both comic fans, will love it when they
see it!"
