While at the Hero Con this weekend, I discovered a great little graphic novel series called Owly by Andy Runton. I want to do a totally unsolicited pitch for this comic. I passed his table at publisher Top Shelf during the convention and was drawn to the images of the cute little owl with the big eyes. Being jaded as I am, I half expected it to be one of those “cute” comics that lure you into a sense of security right before something horrible happens, AKA Adult Swim. So I checked out his website right before the last day at the ‘con and was delighted to find that Owly is exactly what it seems to be, an adorable, safe-for-all-ages story about a cute li’l owl and his friends! I went back to his table the next day and bought two books which he signed with a little sketch to my son and my niece. I wish I had ponied up the $20 for a custom sketch of Owly as a fencer! Well, maybe I’ll see him at the next ‘con and I won’t be so cheap. So if you like cute, or you want to introduce your kids to safe, nonviolent comics, check out Owly!
