Tommy co-created the show with Brendon Small and wrote for the first two seasons, but as of season 3 he is strictly involved as a voice actor. He is still credited for his role as an original co-creator following his departure from production.

Tommy Blacha was completely uninvolved with "Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem", and his voices for Murderface and Dr. Rockzo were imitated by Brendon Small, while Mike Keneally voiced Toki.
