Book of Grrry progress

Now that I am back to work, I feel a bit of a catharsis. The Book of Grrry gives me a chance to really let loose as a creator. Stories involving the bombshell of the Youth in Asia universe seem to take on a life all their own. As with the two stories I am working on for this next BoG installment, Grrry is back to her usual bag of tricks, as the case may be. I have also come to terms with the fact that Grrry gets what Grrry wants and it's really best not to fuck with her, as you have seen in the pages of YiA and the first two issues of BoG. What happens in the next couple of stories should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with the buxom wonder. And if you're not in the know, I suggest you get in the know. Grrry has become one of the two favorite characters from Anti-Hero Brand Press along with Agnew Pennyworth, sidekick to Nash in Youth in Asia, star of his own coloring book series, "got crayons?" and the mega breakout star of "Fuzzyface: The Agnew Chainsaw Massacre." Both characters are favorites of Fuzzyface writer, Venus of Necro, who in an interview with Richard Caldwell describes Grrry as "fearless." And she is. The voice and personality I decided to give Grrry was that of the unsilent majority. The person who says what she feels without the nasty repercussions that come from speaking your mind in today's society. Grrry is a staunch defender of the under dog, and is at times violently loyal to her friends. An avid supporter of free speech, as well as the "We can do it," philosophy of the iconic Rosie the Riveter poster that helped spawn the ideas behind the Rockabilly movement.
Grrry is not one to hold her opinions inward. In all reality, Grrry is going to let you know exactly how she feels about what's going on in the world. In a day and age where so many people hold back for fear of being non P.C. or for getting on the government's shit list, Grrry is most definitely "of the people" type of character. And in her own words, "people should learn an unrelenting fear of me."
