About this Collection

This collection gathers the first story arc of the 2011 series from Smarty-Pants Comics, presenting a selection of offbeat, all-ages horror and fantasy tales. The volume reprints the initial issues, each offering a standalone narrative that blends eerie atmosphere with a playful, kid-friendly sensibility. It serves as an entry point to the anthology's unique mix of spooky and whimsical storytelling.

"Monsters in the Box" is a delightfully quirky tale from Neil R. King, who writes, draws, inks, and letters this 2011 gem for Smarty-Pants Comics. It follows a young storyteller recounting the peculiar misadventures of Pudding Joe, whose passion for pudding leads to an unexpected and utterly bizarre encounter with a cat named Theodore. The story’s whimsical tone and self-contained charm are perfectly captured in Neil R. King’s distinctive art, both in the interior and on the cover.
