Beautiful work!! Looks like another winner...
Great stuff!!
Fun and totally engaging read, good mystery, brilliant art, and moody lighting to fit... THIS one's got to win awards!!
Thanks guys! but I still won't entertain for a minute the thought that the gatekeepers of Australian children's literature are going to let a purple gorilla comic book into the winners circle. Still, a nomination sure has been good for building readership.
I'm waiting for the merchandise... sailor's cap, Pug's beanie and umbrella, Captain Congo hunting stick... I'm telling you, the kids will go mental for it.
Greg, don't forget the cross-dressing penguin, either. That's gotta sway 'em, surely? This a great series. Let's hope for a long run!
