New Art Day
Faux Sugar and Spike 100 Cover featuring
Farlaine the Goblin by Pug Grumble https://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=1621692
Years ago, I decided to back a Kickstarter for a series of all-ages comics by an anonymous author. Can't tell you why. I'd never read the story, but I liked the way that the creator described it and I liked the artwork. So, I backed it. My perk was a page of art from the fourth book out of seven; the last three were to be supported by the Kickstarter.
Turned out that creator lived near where I frequently work so we decided to meet for dinner so he could deliver my pert - I figure saving postage is good. :)
We talked a bit about the story. It features Farlaine, a young tree goblin shaman, who set out to find a place to start his forest. The world of Wug has many peculiar lands and we got to see only a handful over the course of his adventure. When the story picks up, Farlaine is very discouraged. He's down to the last 10 lands and Ehrenwort, the tree intended to start his forest, is withering. The seven volumes of the series tell that the ending of his search.
As long as the series is, we never got to see any of the hundreds (!) of places, he had visited before it started until now.
Since that first meeting, I've tried to commission Pug, but he's been too busy and so it stood until today when I received this gift from my friend Pug.
He decided to show me the time that Farlaine visited The Toddlerlands where he encountered Sugar and Spike! Who knew! I guess as they did with their visit with the Muppet Babies that they used Bernie the Brain's version of the Ultimate Nullifier to find their way there. :)
Thanks for the great gift, Pug.
