Rob Andersin loved Scooby Doo Growing up. He Loved the fact that the real Monsters aren’t always who you expect them to be and more often they are the people who are looking to make money off tragedies. Rob was saddened to learn that modern-day Scooby Doo now fights actual monsters and has lost that magic of teaching kids to watch for those with power and means to do harm. Rob being Inspired by this loss of integrity in something he was a fan of and the FANTASTIC Art of CGhirardo’s , Rob turned Classic MONSTERS into REAL PEOPLE with believable back stories and used them to Expose the real Monsters of Life, those who constantly affect everyday people without care, The Greedy and Corprotasied Americans who seek to rule the world at any cost or loss of life, so long as it does not negatively affect profits.

Bonus FACT:

While not mentioned for the worry of Bias toward the project and censorship on kickstarter of this project, Mister AnderSiN wrote this while working on Barbara UnLEASHED and felt the Kink Community were the Monsters in the Vanilla world’s mind, especially in Hollywood, as 50 shades of BS was pleaded to the world.

THE STORY

In Naples, Florida, our “Monsters” have made a quiet life and faded into obscurity. The “Monsters” consist of the Invisible Man, The Mummy, Frankenstein, and Dracula, who are real people, not Monsters, with unfortunate misconceptions about who they are thanks to the silver screen. The local police think they know who they are, based on the silver screen, despite not being anything like their Hollywood myths.

When dead bodies begin showing up around them, it doesn’t take long for the police to try to pin the deaths on the “Monsters”. These so-called” MONSTERS” must act fast to clear their names and in the process, will expose the REAL LIFE MONSTERS living freely under all of our noses.

How it all came together

Rob Andersin and CGhirardo wanted to work together and were trying to make a completely different comic at first. The original comic book Rob felt was not a good fit for CGhirardo’s Art, but Rob was both inspired and inspired by CGhirardo’s Artistic talent and wrote a 5-page story about Monsters to match his style and embrace it. The Preliminary art was drawn by CGhirardo, and it quickly filled 5 pages with the beginning of an amazing story, and suddenly a longer story was born out of the enjoyment of creating by both writer and artist. By the time all was said and done a 32-page Comic had been created in a couple of months.
