A Necessary Sacrifice

Animation ● Backgrounds

A Necessary Sacrifice was another entry for Bradley's 24-Hour Animation Contest! In this film, Heroman needs to disable Shark-sama's super murder death-ray... but the only thing that can reach the self-destruct button is his sandwich! Is that a sacrifice he's willing to make?
