So, Mal announces his upcoming Street Stupid book:
Okay, STREET STUPID is a book I'm doing after I finish SCOTT PILGRIM Vol 3. It's tentatively scheduled to come out July 2006, which I realize is a year away, but they wanted to announce it right now. I'm doing it because I want to take a little break before plunging in to the rest of SCOTT -- I don't want to get stuck writing only these characters, I guess.Want to see the preview art? Go to StreetStupid.com.
STREET STUPID is sort of a teen comedy about two sisters (who hate each other) who discover a secret society in their local library. The society has dedicated itself to using learning for evil. They want to destroy California (where they all live) because California is the center of entertainment, and entertainment makes people happy, and the goal of evil is to make people unhappy. So, it all sort of makes sense.
Yes, it's LESS deep than Scott Pilgrim. I know I said I'd do another tragically emotional book, and I'm working on one in the background, but I'm saving it for a little later. It needs more time.
Anyway, the only STREET STUPID art I have to show you is still the teaser site, and I probably won't talk about this project much until I get started on it about six months from now. But now you have some basic information and can hopefully look forward to a fun book next summer instead of bitching about the length of time it'll now be between SCOTT PILGRIM 3 and 4.
