Slugilicious by Gary Baseman
"Out from the shallow damp earth, comes the slithering Slugilicious.
He takes his time, rushing for no one.
Even if he looks like he is standing still, he is definitely tripping.
Some people call him a homeless vermin.
Some others call him a lazy hippie.
Some people call him a space cowboy.
Some call him the gangster of love.
No matter where Sluggy goes, he always leaves his mark.
The sidewalk is his canvas.
He is the Lewis and Clark of the Mucus Trails."
Bella Delamere by Doktor A
"Discarded with the sump oil at a very early age, Bella was swept downstream until she found herself by the sea. She soon made friends with all forms of aquatic creatures and was taken in and raised by a family of Kraken (the smaller lesser spotted variety). Upon reaching adulthood she returned to the surface and emerged into society, remodelled after her adoptive kin folk. The tentacles do not raise many comments around town. But her insistence on always waring a mask certainly does. Much speculation is whispered about her true identity. And one day she will reveal her secret to the father who left her for dead..."
William, Henry and Reginald by Frank Kozik
"In the chronicles of exploration, few feats match Lord William Fitzpatrick Smythe's adventures into the vast unknown heart of the blank space known as Inner Lemuria. Follow him, and his faithful retainers Reginald 'Mamoo' Withers and Henry 'Hop' Newtsbridge, as they discover the mystic and ancient ruins of La-Er."
