CRANIACS GONE WILD…
“CRANIMAL CHAOS” INTRODUCES DOZENS OF ORIGINAL CRANIACS COMPANIONS
In CRANIACS Series 4: Cranimal Chaos, arriving in stores this week, creators Joe Simko and Ira Friedman are dramatically expanding the storyline by adding Cranimals, an all-new animal species to its stone age-meets-futuristic skull-headed universe.
The Cranimals, as imagined by Joe Simko in his hyper colorful, 80’s inspired, painted art style, wreak havoc in action-packed situations with their CRANIACS ‘owners.’ Also featured are Simko illustrated Cryptids, spectacularly rendered creatures from best-selling author R. L. Stine. The Cryptids just debuted in the Stine’s ‘Create Your CRANIACS Quest’ book series from Simon & Schuster.
