J.R. Mounts:
I'm an independent comics guy that lives in Atlanta, Georgia
and creates, writes, draws and publishes my own parody comic titles,
"Fried Pickle Noir" graphic novel series and "Scairy Tales: the
not so scary fairy tales" family comic strip, among others. I spell
'scary' with an "i" to combine the words scary/fairy so that readers
don't think I do horror comics.
scairytalesnoir.com
I've been appearing at conventions throughout the South and have traveled even further to promote my self-publishd comics at Heroes Con, Dragon Con, Baltimore Comic Con, NC Comicon, Indiana Comic Con etc...and many more.
'Fried Pickle Noir' is my most popular comic series. Exactly like it sounds, this comic book series is about Fried Pickle detective Q Cumbersome's fight against the mob element in a town called The Pits. Currently, there are currently 4 collected books and a card game. It's a crime noir parody that can be thought of as 'Sin City meets Veggie Tales'. Meant for laughs but is true to crime. Puns abound in this series and can be read for ages 13 and above. It's rated 'V' for vegetable violence. It was recently reviewed favorably at Ain't It Cool News.
'Scairy Tales: the not so scary fairy tales!' is my all-ages comic strip style series about little kids who dress up all year round as monsters and superheroes and deal with daily school life until they discover that monster children live across the bridge! Think of it as 'Calvin & Hobbes meets The Nightmare Before Christmas'. It's okay for all ages but best appreciated for those who like Peanuts or Calvin & Hobbes humor. There are currently 3 collected books, a card game, coloring book and a cd musical called "SNOMBIES! A Musical Monsterpiece" about reanimated zombie snowmen called SNOMBIES that invade both towns, hungry for...CLOTHES!
I love to laugh and support the independent movement of artists breaking out and creating their own characters, of which I am proud to be among them.
