From the sun struck coast of California comes independent comic writer, Gabe Cheng, as he reunites with the Revenge Crew once again. Building a reputation for the not-so-typical slice of life narratives, Gabe continues to extend his writing catalog. Tackling one of our favorite comic genres here at BTR… the comedic one shot. “Stuck in the Middle” is a theologic satire as it’s just another day in exile for fallen angel, Dante. A being of godly design on the precipice of existential crisis just living out, yet, another day in the mundane purgatory of his Los Angeles apartment complex. But hey at least there’s a pool. Like anyone feeling “stuck” in life, Dante must come to grips with his own reality and face his literal demon and that demon is not too happy about it. The meeting of ancient rivals goes about how you’d expect. Who will prevail, light or darkness, in the inevitable battlefield of their North Hollywood apartment villa commons area?! With quick wit and a whole lot of charm and style, Gabe brings a fun read for those looking to start off the summer with some light chuckles. “Stuck in the Middle” is funding right now on Kickstarter with only about a week left. Check it before time runs out! A note from Tadd: The “NOW” is the resurgence of the independent creator through crowd sourcing and self-publishing availability. As the veil gets pulled back ever further and the predatory practices of corporate models get revealed, it is more and more important to support those who actually create the stories and art that we as consumers enjoy. So SUPPORT INDIE PROJECTS and their CREATORS. Help make the indies the mainstream. Even the smallest of gestures can be of the biggest help. Have you experienced the elusive and majestic energy of the Blue Tiger? Had a sighting in the wilderness of the eternal forest? Drank the blue milk of it’s revenge? Then let the people know it exists! And check out “TAIGA”, Tadd’s latest graphic novel with new pages weekly. Exclusively at patreon.com/gnarpig
