Grim Tales From Below

Post by Neo Zanther »

Sorry for being abit late today.


But here it is.

Grim Tales From Below

Basicly if anyone has ever seen the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy you'll get and probably like this comic more.


Basicly this is the story of Grim's Son. You'll see how later on. But the story starts out with Grim Jr and his sister gathering flowers for her. They get found by something and get saved. Then Grim Jr tells how he and his sister came to be the way they both currently are.

There are alot of fimilar chars from the show and they even add in Jack from Nightmare Before Christmas.

My favorit arc is the Diary Arc.

Oh and later on it does get abit suggestive of stuff that might not agree with ya just to be warned.

Wow. I was impressed. The art's great, although the artist's rendition of Grim bothered me for a little, but it passed. The story was hooking, and the ties he made between the different cartoon worlds were well thought out.
I've started to read the others as well, and whoever writes these watches way too much TV.

YEEE! SNAFU!

Sorry, I found these comiocs a while ago,a nd loved them. The art is very nice, compared to the cartoons it is based on, and the story, well, it's just wow.

:3 Good comics, all of them, and Grim was always so... different. :3

I was a bit dubious at first of these comics since I've never been a big fan of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, and I really didn't like the first 5 comics or so.
But after that, when the story picked up, I started really enjoying it.
The story had me hooked, I read it all in one sitting. I liked how so many cartoon characters were tied in (Jack Skellington FTW!), and the artwork was great.

The story is wonderful and the art is Exelent. Bleedman has a lot of talent, that's for sure. Anyway, I love how he puts all these cartoon characters in this, like Jack Skellington, Spawn, and Danny. I think I've acctually saw this before, but I lost interest by the first 3 pages.

This is one of my favorites, just because of the art. Jack looks so freaky!

Flaming horse warriors FTW!

Also, one of my favorites is the one that shows Mandie's neighborhood watch. You know, the one with Dora, Yogi, Diego, and the yellow Tellituby. I'd post the link, but I don't have the time, nor the effort.

All in all, it's a very well done comic. The art is great and the story and characters are good. I don't watch The Grim Adventures though, so that limits my interest a bit. But still very good comic (if a bit dark for something based on a kids' show) and lots of neat cameos.
