NEW COMIC SERIES – YOU DECIDE!
Yes – due to recent requests, we here at B & B
Productions have decided to let YOU, dear reader, choose our next comic series!
We have three ideas which we think are, as Bowling Ball
would say, “epical.” So we'll let you vote for which one you want.
HOUSE OF
CHEESEMAN
Cheeseman is one of
Brendan’s first creations – and his favorite. Since we first invented him, we've created a whole colorful cast of characters and a wonderful history. So,
when Cheeseman and his friends/enemies get trapped inside his new mansion
during a dreadful storm, wonderful, crazy, and magical antics ensue. For those
of you who have a copy of the Official B
& B Showcase Book, we’ll be incorporating some of those awesome
drawings into creepy, awesome, thrilling stories.
FROM THE DESK OF DETECTIVE LUFFAGUS
Detective Luffagus first
appeared in our awesome movie Brendan
O’Connell’s Worthington Manor, which starred Brendan himself as the crazy,
kooky detective. It also featured Brian as the villainous Cornelius
Worthington, our cousin Liam as partner in crime Dr. Neon, and our other cousin
Anna as Miss Periwinkle. In this comic series, Detective Luffagus goes over his
long history of “solving” crimes. Each edition, we get to see one of his case
files – and what happened in that case. If this one gets nominated, we’ll start
off with a graphic version of Worthington
Manor itself.
SCHNICKLE HOSPITAL
This
started out as a script by Brian called Smilio,
Smilia, and Grinnigore, which was about two siblings who work at Schnickle
Hospital that are menaced by a crazy person named Grinnigore. It was never
produced. HOWEVER, we've decided to give it a chance as a comic. In this
series, the siblings have crazy, unusual adventures in the hospital – and in
several editions, we make Grinnigore appear! The grotesque art/writing of Brian
O’Connell coupled with Brendan’s humorous art/writing makes this a very entertaining
comic!
Well, there you have it!
Pick which one you want and tell the person who gave you this week’s edition of
Bowling Ball, or comment on this post. The results will be
announced on Halloween.

TO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE PRE-ORDERED
Tales of the Grotesque
EDGAR
ALLAN POE
We REALLY do hate to say this, folks, but, due to
(reasonable) censorship, Edgar Allan Poe’s Tales
of the Grotesque will NOT be distributed on Halloween – or, for any other
time. I was really eager for this project but the stories included are very
violent and disturbing for the audience we're aiming at. We're sorry, but we
cannot afford a school-parent scandal at our position. We hope you can forgive
us, and we hope Mr. Poe (wherever he is now) can forgive us too. We strongly apologize. I really wanted to do it – heck,
I came UP with the idea. But we've come to the realization that your parents
will freak if they see you reading this. Thank you, faithful buyers, and sorry.
