Nathan Arch
"Well, I believe Joey. I wholeheartedly believe!" |
Nathan Arch Sr. is the owner of the film company Arch Gate Pictures and one of the old friends of Joey Drew.
History
Joey Drew Studios on the verge of bankruptcy
A tape recorded by Joey Drew was at some point sent to Nathan, whilst the latter had been vacationing in South America with his spouse, Tessa. The tape mentioned that Joey would never ask him for help unless absolutely necessary, and how he believed that when one is in a tight spot, they should ask for help, and bluntly states that the Studio is running low on funding, and Joey requested that Nathan send him additional funding, before wishing both Nathan and Tessa well on their vacation.[1] It is currently unknown what Nathan's response to the plea was.
His legacy
Over the years, while the success of Joey Drew Studios plummeted, Arch Gate Pictures had such skyrocketing success that Nathan was considered an "industrial genius" and a "business tycoon" in the real and cartoon worlds alike, and all thanks to how well he connected with the "doers" of the world (people willing to think big and work to make things happen with their own will power, as opposed to Joey's "dreamers" who need constant motivation under fantasy propaganda). With all that success, however, Nathan's own son, Wilson, felt rejected from constantly living under his father's shadow, leading to rather shady events in the Cycle.
