171: "Every Comic Needs a Perfume Factory" w/Rafer Roberts and Mike Norton

The Word Bros

Rafer Roberts and Mike Norton have been working together for a long time and you can see it in their super fun and entertaining comics. The duo return for more hi-jinx in The Rock Gods of Jackson, Tennessee, an original, all ages OGN from Dark Horse Comics. The Rock Gods of Jackson, Tennessee is a semi-autobiographic tale that tells the heartwarming coming-of-age story of four high school outcasts who start a band to gain fame and popularity…but have to defend their hometown from a hungry horde of monsters instead. It’s The Archies meets Stranger Things and it sounds like a lot of fun.

Mystic Melon

The creative team of Jeremey Brooks (artist/co-creator), Sara Harding (editor), Marcus Cripps (colorist), and The Word Bros (writers/co-creator) are toiling away on a new project entitled Mystic Melon, a tangled tale about n Watermelon-headed sorcerer who seeks revenge against those who have exiled him in a resort town. We gonna rock this one till the wheels fall off. Be sure to look for this one on Kickstarter in Late April/Early May.
