Way back last year, November 5th to be exact I mentioned Monster Fun on this blog, the comic Rebellion Publishing have decided to revive.
Well come Monday April 4th, guess what arrived!
In this Easter special, Frankie Stein manages to lose his own brain! Helly, the sweet-natured demon tries to help the Easter Bunny, but may have ruined the holiday foreverand the Leopard from Lime Street springs into action, investigating secrets from his past.
Sweeny Toddler will be up to some EGGS-TREMELY naughty behaviour!
The deal was simple: that Halloween special plus being revived aimed at actual children rather than retro adults although the latter will just lap it up from this April as a bi monthly.
They've got this right, the plots where contemporary strips referencing modern life such as streamed programming and cat cafés are there but are drawn more in the traditional comic strip form with just better colour and sharpness being printed in glossy paper unlike the newsprint we grew up on.
Traditional stories like Leopard from Lime Street retain their anachronistic pasts reflecting the eras they are set in.
There are quizzes competitions and draw your own bit for under 16's to send in and a fair number did from that Halloween special which shows they like a traditional plastic tat free comic.
Jolly fun, what?
