BugGirl part one is a wrap!

Ruben has finished the art on issue #3. This is the end of the first chapter of Selma the BugGirl's Saga. We will eventually go back to tell more of her story but now Ruben has started working on the concept art to a yet unnamed story about a group of back kids that terrorize a town for a summer.

A Fist Full of Fest!

Well what can I say, I'm still recovering from the sensory overload that was Comic-Con. While I was at the Convention peddling my wares, I was notified that the RockThrower has been excepted into five festivals: Orinda International Film Festival, Big Bear Lake Film Festival, Rhode Island International Film Festival, Rome International Animation Film Festival, and Memphis Mini film Festival.

So I guess I got that going for me. This festivals set the grand total up to thirty film festivals so far.

The House wins at Tahoe/Reno International Film Festival

Another festival for the RockThrower! This will be the 24th Film Festival on the RockThrower's rough and wild ride though the festival circuit so far. Located in beautiful Lake Tahoe, this festival is put together by the very entertaining Katrina Wilson. http://www.t-riff.org

Image it, you could go there, watch my film and then gamble the night away in South Lake Tahoe. Talk about big fun!

ps - Moronik Industries is not encouraging you to gamble and is not responsible for any loss of money that may incur. If you do feel that your gambling addiction is totally out of control not unlike the gambling addiction my little sister Stella has, please, we at Moronik Industries beg you to get help. You don't want to be stuck living with Mom for the rest of your life because you can't afford rent. But if you do feel that your gambling addiction is under control , feel free to gamble away all your disposable income. Those casinos up in Tahoe have been taking a big hit from Indian gaming lately and could really use your money.

Comic-Con here we come!

It is official Moronik Comiks will have a booth at Comic-Con. After weeks of being on the waiting list we have been informed that they have room for us. The short notice has made life a little crazy but it is more that worth it to have not only a film playing at Comic-Con's first film fest, but also a booth there. I had applied in March for a space but being as everyone wants to have a space at Comic-Con they were totally booked. The only bad news is that Colin, the artist for DirtBoy, will not be going to make it. Luckily Ruben, the artist for BugGirl, will. It is going to be a wild ride and we are ready for the trip! If you are going to be in San Diego for Comic-Con please stop by the Booth!

The Death of Wiggly Tooth AKA Fang

The creative genius behind Moronik Industries Dante Leo Elmo Dondero loses his first tooth. Dante three months shy of six years old, who lately has been going by the nickname Sharkboy, has after a huge battle with his 'Wiggly Tooth' finally become victorious. 'Wiggly Tooth' who for the last week had made the simple act of eating close to impossible was laid to rest last night and taken to the great tooth resting place in the sky. The benevolent Tooth Fairy not only ate the chocolate ice cream that Dante had left as payment for safe voyage for 'Wiggly Tooth' but also left cold hard cash! 'Wiggly Tooth' who for five years had been a faithful companion of Dante's had last week started complaining of the lack of space due to the encroachment of 'Adult tooth #1' (aka Biggy). When Wiggly Tooth's demands to stop any further loss of space were not meet, Wiggly Tooth decided his only means of actions were those of defiant force! 'Wiggly Tooth' changed his name to 'Fang' for he no longer wanted to go by a name given to him by Dante who had now turned a blind eye to the 'Fang's' needs and issues. Fang also created the 'Baby Tooth Liberation Army' which terrorized Dante's mouth for the good part of a week. In the the end the naming of the BTLA confused many of the remaining baby teeth and prevented Fang from gaining any real support. Baby tooth #7 (aka - BT7) stated "Fang got all crazy at the end. He was all saying 'join my liberation army! You could be next.' Man I liked Fang. He was a good friend, but I like were I am. I don't want to be liberated. That's just crazy talk."

The final moments came quick for Fang who was just holding on by a thread. With one swift yank came the end of both Fang and the BTLA. Dante is saddened that such a great friendship had to end this way but wishes everyone to remember his for the good times not the bad.

Fangs Last Stand:
