The Registrant is unable to file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2008 by the prescribed date without unreasonable effort or expense due to delays involved in completing the purchase and transition of account records for Wowio, LLC.

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed ? If answer is no, identify report(s). X Yes No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? X Yes No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
We anticipate that the results of Platinum Studios, Inc. for the period ending December 31, 2008 will significantly change as compared to the results for the period ended December 31, 2007. This is due in large part to the Registrant’s trading on the Over the Counter market effective January 11, 2008 resulting in additional costs such as stock option expense combined with the acquisition of Wowio, LLC on July 15, 2008. A reasonable estimate cannot be made until we have completed the accounting for the Wowio, LLC transaction and the consolidated financial statements of Platinum Studios, Inc.
