Bigfoot Found, Cryptozoo Crew on the Way... Coincidence?
It's like we planned it!
With all of the recent chatter about Bigfoot being discovered in Georgia, it seems appropriate to mention some big news regarding one of the upcoming series you'll be seeing here on ComicMix -- because if anyone can determine whether that's a real Bigfoot in the cooler, it's the Cryptozoo Crew.
Previously published by NBM, writer Allan Gross and artist Jerry Carr's Cryptozoo Crew is headed to ComicMix for an all-new online series exploring the facts, fables and funny business surrounding mysterious creatures like, for example, Bigfoot. In fact, Gross has promised that the first storyline in the series will involve our ol' buddy from Georgia -- so the timing couldn't be better, eh?
In case you haven't been keeping up to snuff with the goings-on of the 'Crew, here's a quick synopsis of the series, according to Gross:
The story of CRYPTOZOO CREW is the story of Tork Darwyn and his wife Tara. Tork is a Cryptozoologist. He can understand all the "unknown" animals he discovers, but can never figure out his wife (or wife to be in this origin story). It is a mix of Indiana Jones adventure and Moonlighting/Romancing the Stone type male-female (mars/venus) relationship interaction. All ages appropriate.
What's more, Gross tells me that Cryptozoo Crew was recently optioned for film adaptation by Alcon Entertainment -- so it might be a good idea to get to know Tork and Tara real soon. (Well, before all that fame goes to their heads, that is.)
You can find out more about Cryptozoo Crew on the series' official website, www.cryptozoocrewonline.com.

Sounds like there are some big plans afoot! I can't wait to see what's next in the adventure. More monkeys, I hope.

Tork will open a can of "Oh yeah?" on the boys from Georgia!
Looking forward to this!
