| 06.04.2014 – Bee and PuppyCat is a web series being shown as part of the Cartoon Hangover channel on YouTube. It’s a story about Bee, an unemployed woman in her twenties, when suddenly she encounters a mysterious creature called PuppyCat.
She adopted this weird hybrid cat-dog, and together they go on an intergalactic babysitting gig to pay her monthly rent. This popular series spins out from the KickStarter-funded animated short into a monthly comic book series published by Boom! |
The series was created by Natasha Allegri who also the artist and writer for the comic book series. The first issue looks like an unknown independent comic book, but if you are not much into mainstream and in search for something fresh Bee and PuppyCat might be one of those interesting titles out there.
