Jim Cummings is listed as a guest at the ConnectiCon convention again this year. I saw him last year and his panel was very entertaining! ConnectiCon is held in Hartford, CT in July. Here's a link: http://connecticon.org/guests/category/anime

Oh, man. That's great, I really envy you because you have the chance to see him at a convention. Now, I became a fan of his work since 2005, I would like to have the privilege to see him in person and perform each voice he has done in his career. If I could had that chance I would like to ask him if I could record him performing the voices of Pete, Louie, Karnage, Darkwing Duck and Scar.

One of the reasons his panel was so entertaining is because he kept changing his voice. Plus it was very interesting to hear how he got into the voice acting business.

Some people posted parts of his panel from last year on youtube. Here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMNytBvg9L0

He even signed autographs for free afterwards which was nice. I'm used to other conventions like NY Comic Con where everyone wants lots of $$$s to sign autographs.

I had similar panels in Mexico, in each one I went the voice actors explained you how did they get into the business. And many of them were by accident or hey were discovered. But the best ones were with the voice actors Arturo Mercado and Francisco Colmenero. This last two made very interesting their panel like cummings. These mexican voice actors are really good, in my opinion you should see them.

I think this is a good chance for someone in USA to record him again

If anyone of you happens to see him, try to ask him some Karnage! He's said several times that's his favorite character to voice

He uses his Karnage voice in this clip about a minute into it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsW39YErSak I would love to see that version of Peter Pan.

Cyclone Blaze- I watched those videos you shared and those voice actors are all very talented! I like how they show the cartoon and the voice actor at the same time. I wish I could change my voice that much. Very cool!

I knew you would really get amazed by that. Actually the first video I share to you, that actor made some disney characters that Jim has.
He did the voice for Louie in Talespin, Drake Mallard/Darkwing Duck, those are the ones I can recall.
Due to those people I want to get involve in voice acting, along with the animation business, giving voice to one of my own characters.

I would love to meet Cummings in person some day.

He also did the voice of Trader Moe in TaleSpin, and a lot others that I can't recall at the moment

I think you're a little confused steet, he's one of Trader Moe's goons the gorilla to be more specific. It's on a interview that was published in one the comics you put online.

Well there's no mistaking for me, Trader Moe's voice sounds very similar to Darkwing Duck's actually.
And it's confirmed here! http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Trader_Moe

That said, he was one of the goons too, that guy does most voices in all the shows he works for lol
