I’ve mentioned the webcomic Axe Cop before. For those who aren’t familiar, the older brother, Ethan Nicolle, decided to have his younger brother (at the time at age 6) write a story that he would then illustrate. As you can imagine the mind of a six year old has no limits and the resulting work is quite unique but highly entertaining.
In addition to a full store of Axe Cop merch, Wired magazine reports a new card game based on the comic is available.
Talk about meteoric rises. In less than 18 months, brothers Malachai and Ethan Nicolle went from having an idea about an axe-wielding cop who hunts down bad guys to becoming a worldwide webcomic hit that would be celebrated in its own version of the geek-favorite game, Munchkin. And now that the game’s out, we thought we’d take a look.
…
Most of the main characters are here, including Wexter, Sockarang, Best Fairy Ever, Uni-Baby and Dr. Stinky Head. (You are stinky! No one will help you in your next combat.) Plus, there are lots of the unique and hilarious props and quirky items that make the Axe Cop comic so much fun to read: duck, flute, a truck of ninjas, and the ever-present weapon store.
I LOVE THIS STRIP! If you aren’t reading it you need to.
This totally just made my Christmas list.
Pure awesome.
