"The quality of the submissions really surprised us," says Viper President Jessie Garza. "We chose five, but we just as easily could have picked more."
The five new additions are: Bob the Squirrel, Brinkerhoff, Ugly Hill, Small Wonder, and Muffin Time.
BOB THE SQUIRREL- by Frank Page
Bob is a squirrel with a personality that could drive anyone insane. He truly believes that he is NOT a squirrel---just has squirrel tendencies. Either way, he's a great dude to have around.
BRINKERHOFF- by Gabe Strine
Whoever said rabbit's feet were lucky never bothered to tell Brinkerhoff. He works through the absurdities of life with the help of some loyal friends and a doting mother, while dodging the prying of his perplexing ex-wife. He isn't looking to win the race, he just wants to be lucky enough to finish.
UGLY HILL- by Paul Southworth
"Ugly Hill" is the apt title of this strip about an American small town called Ugly Hill, and the monsters who live there. It's character-based humor that tries to shed some light on human issues ranging from relationships and employment to racism and war by running them through the "monster-filter" and spitting them back at the reader.
SMALL WONDER- by Worth Gowell
Newt and his friend Carver explore their own unique slice of suburbia in Small Wonder. It's a hyperactively imaginative neighborhood, slightly askew from the world of adults. Skunks are man's best friend, clubhouses hide Elvis, and children run dot-coms instead of lemonade stands. When Jackie moves into the community, the boys find they have a lot to learn about girls, too.
MUFFIN TIME- by Bryan Chojnowski
Muffin Time is an offbeat look at the lives of anthropomorphic friends Randall, Maryn, and Leonardo. While the strip is most certainly absurd; it's always funny. If you like quick, irreverent humor, then you'll love Muffin Time.
The strips will go live on www.vipercomics.com within the next 6-8 weeks. Viper Comics would like to welcome the new creators to the Viper family and thank everyone who submitted for making their decision a difficult one.
