Danger Down Under! no.3

okay...

first off, let's start out with some very nice words from a very nice guy named chuck suffel from his blog whatchareading.com


whatchareading.com/2013/01/06/the-perhapanauts-danger-down-under-january-9th/

i can't thank chuck enough for this great write-up, mostly because it does what i've been trying to do for years; sum up the perhapanauts in just a few sentences to make it appealing to new and, as yet, unenlightened readers that might be wondering what its all about.
thanks, chuck! we really appreciate it!


next, as the heading on the top of this post and chuck so eagerly explained--PERHAPANAUTS: DANGER DOWN UNDER! no.3 hits the stands this Wednesday (that's this Wednesday, January 9th) and I know you're not gonna wanna miss it!

To make sure you DON'T miss it, here are the two covers that this issue will be sporting






this lovely bug-eyed monster cover by craig...featuring the terrified reflections of choopie and gef, respectively...



...and this wonderful, whimsical, winnie-tne-pooh-esque (e. h. shepard-esque) piece by our pal, The Stuff Of Legend artist, Charles Paul Wilson III! (if you do not read The Stuff of Legend you are missing out on one of the most enjoyable, entertaining, and lushly illustrated comics EVER! go order volume on and fall into this beautiful and richly detailed world! awesome!)

issue three of DDU--that's what craig and i call it for short--also features part two of matt and christian's hilarious "choopie and karl in the wild wild west" and a stunning favor from a friend as Dr. Who's MATTHEW DOW SMITH dropped by to lend his incredible talents to some pages along the way!

oh--and, of course--craig continues to knock it outta the park with the main story. (i get so wrapped up talking up our friends' art and contributions that i sometimes neglect my incredibly talented and incredibly patient partner...sorry, c.!)

that's Perhapanauts:Danger Down Under! no.3--On sale this week! Don't miss it!

Smell ya later!

I love BOTH of those covers. I'll be buying both. I guess a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

Wonderful write-up! Captured just why I love the Haps!

Chuck did a great job. I just hope he isn't looking for a booth boy gig or I am toast.

I think your Booth-Boy job is fairly secure, Brian--as is your position as CRICKET Commander, Unit C. < g >

Love both covers. I'm not sure which one will be waiting for me at my store this coming weekend.
