The Ultimate Melonpool

By Steve Troop

Melonpool was one of the first comics to regularly-update specifically for the web. This strip about a bunch of aliens, a telepathic dog and a 5-foot-tall, 200-lb hamster was a webcomic before there was a word "webcomic."Blending humor, pop culture and sci-fi in ways that only author Steve Troop, could, Melonpool also was one of the first webcomics to be collected in "dead tree format" collections.Out-of-print since 2004, now you can own your own copy, now with 38% less typos and better binding than the original! In addition to reprinting the first 308 strips (April 28, 1996 - October 5, 1997), this 220-page book also contains:* Behind-the-scenes annotations by the author. * 100 annotated Melonpool strips from college. * The story behind "The Melonpool Chronicles" comic series, as well as all four unpublished covers. * The Pre-history of Melonpool (including Mayberry's first-ever appearance in 1978). * Cast biographies * Never-before published sketches of the design process for The "Steel Duck" and other popular gizmos. * Information on "The Melonpool Movie."
