review:

Stoker-On-Avon has a problem. Their town has a monster, but that's not the problem. The problem is that their monster isn't scary. Certainly nothing like the rock star monster, Tentaculor, of the town of Billingswood.



So, a bumbling scientist, and a stowaway newsboy are sent to see if they can solve the monster problem. It seems the monster suffers a self-image problem, so they head out to find the monster's old classmates to see if they can help. There may be an even bigger problem waiting when they get back home.



Rob Harrell, of Adam@Work fame, has written a hilarious send up of all that scares us, all that holds us back and the friends we make along the way. There are laugh out loud moments in here and the art is cartoony and fun. Great fun for all of us who secretly wish our town had a monster on the hill.
