Satisfactory Comics #4

Throwing a bunch of random things together (some reader submissions) and making a comic out of it is just a wonderful idea as far as I’m concerned. That being said, I’d have to imagine that it would be a fairly easy thing to screw up, and I’m happy to report that that hasn’t happened here. This is the story of Sam, a young boy who runs away in search of adventure after getting yelled at by parents. He runs into a skunk and a Pogo-like creature and they discover that a group of ogres is ransacking the area and trying to turn everybody else into ogres to help. There are a few other random adventures along the way (including a fantastic full page spread in the center of the book) and everything ends happily ever after. Not to give anything away, but that’s not the point of a book like this. The point is seeing how they use all the random things to make a greater whole. I honestly didn’t know about the concept of throwing a bunch of things together until they explained it on the back of the comic, so I guess you’d have to call that a success. Good stuff, I’d say it’s $2 and contact info is up there…
