And after Jack, he became the animation director of the Star Wars animated spinoff series Clone Wars, he co-created and directed the series Sym-Bionic Titan, and he broke into film by directing Hotel Transylvania and its sequel. Tartakovsky had a busy career in animation before Samurai Jack: he was one of the original directors on The Powerpuff Girls, and he created the animated series Dexter's Laboratory.
Jack was still stuck far from his own time, fighting the shape-changing, world-conquering demon Aku. But it wrapped up in 2004 with no real conclusion.
His stylish animated series, about a feudal Japanese samurai stuck in a dystopian far future launched in 2001, and ran for four seasons on Cartoon Network. Writer-director Genndy Tartakovsky promises the new season of Samurai Jack is the last one.
