New comic:THE APPLICANTS- it doesn't suck

[Jon Vinson]

There's a brand new comic on the racks today. On sale at a couple of L.A. comic shops anyway.
THE APPLICANTS is a weird and funny look at the super-hero team book, with characters like BASS MASTER LEE, FUZZY APPLESAUCE, LADY GRAIN, BOOBS O'PLENTY, and GOD'S TUTU.

Check out our website www.theapplicants.com for more details.

Let me know what you think of the Conjoined Wonder Twins!

Too twisted?

If David Lynch and Mel Brooks had a love-child, it would be The Applicants.

This was the most fun I've had reading a super-hero comic, in a long time. Action-packed, strange, silly, funny, profound? YES!

So, drop that copy of Ultimate Super-Hero Sidekicks Gone Wild, and go seek out this book, before it's too late! :cool:

Nice cover! I hope someday we can see an Applicants/Fish Police X-over! That would be epic! :p

The only crossover we have planned for The Applicants is a Secret Wars 2 tie-in. When Jim Shooter, I mean the Beyonder, shows up and starts asking philisophical questions, all hell breaks loose. It will be like when your parents argue, but in a fun comic-book form.

Cool! I hope you can get Al Milgrom to do the artwork! He draws the best jheri curls. :D

[Psychoman]

Maybe, you could get Sideshow Collectibles to do some Applicants sculptures, in the future. I'd like to see a Boobs 'O Plenty/Fuzzy Applesauce diorama. :cool:

[Jon Vinson]

One of these days, I really would like to do action figures of The Applicants...
We will have posters and T-Shirts, though.
And maybe buttons if we're feeling fancy.
