Citizen of Chattanooga, TN creates dark-laden comics for laughs
The Chattanooga Times Free Press spoke about a Tennessee resident who's conceived some of his own comics for amusement, but the problem is that they sound eerily dark:
Now, Brown has come full circle. At age 35, he's a comic book creator with two limited-series comics set to debut in the coming months. The first, "Death Comes for the Toymaker," will be released by Scout Comics later this month — in serialized and trade paperback editions.If this is supposed to be comedy, it hardly sounds like something delightful, what with those kind of themes emphasized. This does not sound like a story I'd want to finance and read. Once again, we're seeing an example of something involving crude themes instead of something with a more delightful premise. This comic doesn't sound like something that'd make one think either. And that's another problem.
Another limited-series comic will probably drop in September, Brown says. "Grandma Tilly's Hell-tech Mech," the second comics series, will be published by Band of Bards Comics.
"It's a far more comic-booky comic book," Brown explains of the second series. "It's about a gaming granny taking her husband's ashes on an adventure in space inside a Mech Robot from a devil dimension." [...]
["Death Comes for the Toymaker"] is the tale of a holiday gift-giver similar to Santa Claus. His deal with Death grants him immortality. ... But in exchange for that deal, he has to give Death a vacation. Gil [the Toymaker] has to do the work of Death, stealing souls. It has to be the same day he is delivering gifts. So he has three lists: his naughty list, his nice list and his death list.
