Unbelievable (MWAD) Preview


The Premise!

I've decided to upload a few more pictures of the characters from my graphic novel, Unbelievable! The Man Who Ate Daffodils and a brief outline of the story.

The hero of the story is a young boy named Ben Ellis (see above pic), an orphan and dreamer who lives with and cares for his housebound grandfather Emrys, an ex-miner and weaver of tall tales.

Ben lives in the fictional remote Welsh village of Bryn Boncath, a close-knit community that shares deep, dark secrets; secrets that Ben is about to discover!

When a new neighbour moves in to the village, a series of mysterious and bizarre deaths occur and a shadowy figure from Emrys' past returns - Caradog 'Cracky' Crachan, an old friend thought killed in a mining accident which nearly claimed both their lives!

Suddenly Emrys' tall tales start to show some substance, especially when encounters with a frightening, supernatural monster become more frequent in the forests and mountains surrounding the village.

Referred to as the `Beast of Bryn Boncath' this terrifyingly huge, night-black, monstrous apparition has glowing red eyes, sharp teeth and claws and fiery breath! Some say it looks like an enormous hound, others a big cat, others unfortunate to cross its path say both or neither!

Ben Ellis is about to find out...................!

Well, you had a sneaky peek at BICE, didn't you! The postcard you have shows Ben and R**(!)...Heh, can't give the game away!

I'll email you some of the pages.

Chees, Simon
