He was best known for his work on X-Men Evolution. His other famous works included The Animated Series. He suffered from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). While in ICU at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, he died waiting for a lung transplant on January 27, 2011.[1] He has a book dedicated to him called Guardians of the Galaxy cosmic team-up. Biographical backgroundKirkland was raised in Utah as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).[2] He received his bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Weber State College in Ogden, Utah.[3] His career in animation started in 1979 as a layout artist.[4] This evolved into XAM! Productions,[3] a partnership based in Salt Lake City that subcontracted for larger Los Angeles based studios. He moved his family to Los Angeles in 1986.[4] Kirkland published articles about the nature of God in Mormon thought. While a missionary for the LDS Church, Kirkland was confused about the Adam-God doctrine, ostensibly taught in the 19th century and denied in the 1970s, which led him to start questioning the current official church leaders.[5] After brief requests for answers from church leaders, Kirkland continued his own research into the controversy, resulting in articles published in Sunstone Magazine,[6] A Journal of Mormon Thought,[7] and chapters of Line Upon Line: Essays on Mormon Doctrine.[5][8] Kirkland worked as a producer for The Animated Series, and with storyboards for The Movie, Adventures in Slumberland, My Little Pony: The Movie, and The Legend of Orin. He also worked on various Mormon cartoons from the Living Scriptures, Inc, including "The Savior in America" and "The Miracles of Jesus."[9] Notable worksBatman & Mr. Freeze: SubZeroSubZero could be considered a major personal achievement in film making by Boyd Kirkland. As a writer, director and producer on the film, he was an integral part of the creative process.
