According to a document distributed by Paramount Pictures to radio
stations to promote the 2002 film "The Wild Thornberrys Movie,"
Jhonen Vasquez is represented by Tracy Kramer of Toltec Artists.
Here is the relevant language from that Paramount document:
"Tracy Kramer (Co-producer) serves as president of Toltec Artists, a
multifaceted talent and literary management company that was founded
in 1992. In that capacity, he is responsible for managing the careers
of an eclectic group of artists, writers, producers and animation
companies. Toltec Artists represents Klasky Csupo, as well as numerous
talented artists, including Peter Hannan, the creator of Nickelodeon's
series "Catdog," Todd Kessler, the co-creator and executive producer
of Nickelodeon's "Blue's Clues" and Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of the
animated series "Invader Zim" on Nickelodeon and three comic book
series: Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, Squee and 1 Feel Sick.

Although that agency has had several Los Angeles area addresses since
it was founded in 1992, I called the following telephone number and
reached a voice mail system that identified the party I had reached as
"Toltec Artists." Here is the contact information that includes that
number, which I initially found on the website of a New York
production company:
Tracy Kramer
Toltec Artists
6305 Yucca Street, Suite 500
Hollywood, CA 90028
Tel: 323-466-1330
Fax: 323-466-1340

Additional Information:
The fact that Toltec represents Jhones Vasques is confirmed in this
excerpt from the last paragraph of an interview with Vasquez:
"Jhonen is working on his spin-off comic, Squee, and has a development
deal in the works with Nickelodeon. He's being represented by Toltec
Artists (the same folks who work with KlaskyCsupo) who have big plans
for him, Stay tuned."

I confirmed the contact information by searching several online
"yellow pages" for Los Angeles. The address and telephone number
above turned up on Yahoo Yellow Pages, here:
Yahoo Yellow Pages
http://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py?Pyt=Typ&city=Los%20Angeles&state=CA&country=us&cs=4&stx=toltec
A second listing for Toltec Artists at Yahoo Yellow Pages also turned
as the only listing for the agency on some other online "yellow pages"
sites. Here is that other listing:
Toldec Artists
6357 W Sunset Blvd
Los Angeles, CA
323-468-5980
I called this number several times and the connection was never
completed. As noted above, the telephone number I cited initially is
a current working number, and I include this second number and address
only because it appears to be the next most recent contact
information.
Search Strategy:
I used various Google search terms to zero in on the information you
are seeking, beginning with this search:
"jhonen vasquez" "represented by"
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22jhonen+vasquez%22+%22represented+by%22
This led me to Toltec Artists, and the rest of my searches focused on
finding current contact information for the agency, which turned out
to be much harder than I expected, because the agency has apparently
changed its address and telephone number several times in ten years:
"toltec artists" vasquez
://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q=%22toltec+artists%22+vasquez
"toltec artists"
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22toltec+artists%22
los angeles yellow pages
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=los+angeles+yellow+pages
I am confident I have given you the information you asked for, and I
hope and expect that it will allow you to get your proposal to Mr.
Vasquez. If any of the information is unclear, please ask for
clarification before rating this answer.
