A MONSTER CALLED FRED

A MONSTER CALLED FRED ©  -  This is the last comic strip from the Monster Trilogy under the banner name of CREEPY CONDO, my unsold comic strip project.
Maybe the Newspaper Syndicates today are more inclined to favor strips with social significance and topical themes over purely gag-oriented material.  This type of humor may be on its way out but I strongly suspect the whole idea of funny monsters isn't that original, to begin with!

MAX THE VAMP

MAX THE VAMP © is another character from the unsold Monster Trilogy Comic Strips.

LARRY THE WEREWOLF

Larry The Werewolf © is part of an unsold comic strip idea I submitted a couple of years ago to several newspaper syndicates under the banner title of CREEPY CONDO. The rejection letter came only from a few of them. Others didn't even bother to acknowledge, which is par for the curse...I mean, course.  Tough luck! 

THE CASTLE presents: CREEPY CONDO

Back in 1964, during the height of the great 60s "Monster Craze", I developed a private comic book named "THE CASTLE". I was 13 years old and drew the comic in simple bond paper with pen and ink with color added with markers and color pencils. I only completed four issues and left the project for something else. "THE CASTLE" was never intended for publication of any kind and as I left my parents home years later, the comic books were lost. I recently recreated the cover of the first issue by memory and I am reposting it here as well as a few samples of a new comic strip inspired by the same characters. The new strip is called "CREEPY CONDO" and it was done just for fun in the spirit of the forthcoming Halloween. Hope you enjoy it!
